| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- Now, they all got a 10 thousand years-long rest. I wonder if the hiatus will be 10 thousand years-long aswell... O.O |
 |
| Everyone is happy and no longer has to fight, but Phos has to suffer again for 10000 years...or at least for however long the hiatus remains. I'm happy for the gems, but damn our Phos can't catch a break. |
| When Antarc said "Where's phosphophyllite" dude I teared up so goddamn bad Please don't let the hiatus be THAT long... |

Zeryphalix said: When Antarc said "Where's phosphophyllite" dude I teared up so goddamn bad Please don't let the hiatus be THAT long... It sad the way they can't meet but it would be better for Antarc to not meet with current Phos, who does not even remember him/herself anymore, please let the joyful Phos live on in Antarc's memory. |
| At first, I was kinda sad about the gems turning on one-another, but now I really do hope Phos gets proper revenge on them all now. Also how did Kongou and Antarc get revived? Not sure if it was really explained when I was reading it, unless he lied to Phos about the recovery of gems??? Anyways, see you all in 10,000 years for chapter 96 |

UaEfAlCoN83 said: Yeah mostly 108 since I heard its an important number in buddhism. This chapter was so heart breaking! Phos was made to suffer so everyone can be happy. After 10K years even the gems who had lost their purpose now would probably beg phos to pray them awaySo I guess we are near the end? All Lunarians will disappear once Phos starts praying. Phos will probably leave in grief until new gems are created ... maybe. I don't see a good ending for Phos. At the same time, I don't see how we can get another arc. The manga won't get past 100 chapters. |

But we sure do miss her smile, let's cross our fingers to see it once again after 10 thousand-years...Why phos needs to suffer so much From airhead and useless gem to ultimate saver of thousands and thousands souls and absolute monster. What a great character |

| i was happy because phos' wish came true but bro, didn't expect them to become lunarians but, phos just cant have a break. i just cant, we want to help our little phos |
| I wonder if making Phos as the next machine prayer has been planned by Kongo from chapter 1 when Phos got his first job. Nonetheless, 10 thousand years is such a pain in the ass for Phos, I can't stop crying |

Probably no one would even care ... which is sad to think a hero who saved everyone would suffer the most, i just cant. the feels and emotions in this chapter keeps rolling down my cheeks. never imagined it would turn out to be this painful and depressing. |
| Dude... Why the author hates Phos so much? This is so depressing. 10 000 years ? How cruel can that be? |
| Wow. I feel really bad for Phos. The way Phos was depicted in these last chapters is it supposed to represent how messed up humans were? Oh my, the betrayal and the lies from that dude, Enma to Phos. It was nice to see Antarc again though. I feel so sad that they couldn't reunite. Trust issues man... |
 |
| I wouldn't blame phos if she turn into a freaking demon after 10 thousand year of suffering . I actually kinda prefer if phos just say fuck it and decided not to pray for anyone cause holy crap she went through a lot . |

| to my understanding, turning gems to lunarians means that the gems have souls, right? they may have been a different life form but now they too can go to nothingness after Phos prays for them. Lots of info in this chapter, also the memories of the moon gems resurfaced of that shady crater in space, wondering what was the point of this info, let's say we take those memories and put them into their correspondent gems, does that means we can have the past gems safe and sound? it's inaccessible now but curious about what will happen. Phos is alone on earth and I feel that the floes can interact with her, same with admirabilis, hard to believe Phos will pray now because the old gems she knew will be gone. see you in 10.000 years |

| It's really sad to see how Phos is the only one who is excluded from the grand reunion, while he was the one who suffered through everything to bring everyone back. It could be said that he was greedy for knowledge but if it kept on going like that all gems would be taken by the Lunarians and scattered around anyway. And now, even Antarc is back :,( It really did bring me to tears when the first thing he asked about was Phos. Yet they all deleted him out of existence, quite literally. It really hurts to see he can't remember his past self... 10000 years of existential pain, here we go |
| I feel like gems becoming lunarians isn't such good thing. So far everyone who went to moon has turned worse- selfish, against their brethen and used Phos when those who had remained had positive changes due to dire circumstances, Cinnabar and Bort especially. I feel like the happiness was in the beginning when Phos was oblivious. The more she got to know the more she lost parts of herself turning her into monster. And when u think of Lunarians, they have everything- but they only want nothingness. Maybe the struggle was what made life happy for the gems. Made them rely on others, most of them having tight relations with other gems and sensei. I wonder if divine being that Phos is becoming is going to become what Achema hopes. Is the happiness she will pray for going to be what he thinks. Somehow I don't think it will, at some point this using of Phos at her expense will blow up on their faces. |
| I have a feeling that Lapis will play an important role during the 10000 years. |
| I literally cried phos doesn't deserve that |
J0es said: This is just a theory but what if (hear me out), Phos pulls a Kongo and has a sort of malfunction. And this malfunction causes Phos to not be able to pray the lunarians away, as what happened to Kongo. I think that the story will somehow warp all the way back to the begging ngl, bust instead of Kongo, it'll be Phos. This doesn't make sense to most people but I just needed a place to put my thoughts lmaoo I don't think this will happen, because Adamant is a machine while Phos has become human. Also, I hope this doesn't happen, because Phos has been through so much and deserves some sort of closure and peace. |

This doesn't make sense to most people but I just needed a place to put my thoughts lmaoo thought about that myself in the past, maybe the trick here is that the lunarians should pray themselves into nothingness considering that they are evil souls and they have to learn a lesson in death. there is that story about the evil guy on the cross alonside jesus (I know hnk is more buddhist but still), he was evil but in his twelfth hour he accepted what evil deeds he did and wanted to be one with god. |

| That 10'000 years rest and hiatus announce tho e.e it makes you weigh everything more realistically, Ichikawa-san got it out well |

| Oh men, this was painful, just pain, more pain oh and i fprgot, extra pain I got a headache.. kudos to the writer, she make the readers feel so bad for pho painful existance... isnhard to achieve that ext4eme empathy for a character, is not only torture them, is good writing that make the trick Thats why i like this but couldnt stan any gorey anime since is plain torture porn ... this is the story of decending into madness, slowly becoming someone else, the story of your own choices being your demise I want pho to be happy, poor him |
| Everyone else is in a slice of life While phos is in berserk |
| When you think about it Phos is the only one in the series who didn't have a chance to reflect upon what is happening around them. They had over 300 years worth of timeskips and memory loss. Since the day they decided to go explore the ocean it was seemingly mistake after mistake every step of the way. For such static lifeforms, Phos the Mineral went through so much change so quickly that it is understandable they lost their marbles. Now not only they've been given seemingly infinite amount of time to think they've also got all the memories of Adamant to go along with it. I imagine that many years will be filled with depression and pain, but there will be chance for great introspection. Needless to say the wait for the finale will be a long one.. |
| Geezus! Please stop shitting on Phos!! Doesn't it look Phos is turning into something that's... almost human? They don't seem to be the least bit afraid of what's going to happen to them when Phos starts to pray in 10,000 years. They should probably start running now. |

| The gems better not get prayed away too... With the next timeskip, Phos' personality will probably change beyond recognition, to an even higher degree than before. |
| can dis sig fit |
| Yet again this manga reminds me why it's one of my favourites. ....But oh my stars please give the best gem a good end. Also, if anyone's curious about the symbolism and the whole transformation thing going on with Phos, there's a YouTube video called 'Houseki no Kuni Ch.82-93 Analysis - The Broken Bodhisattva' that has a pretty good insight about how the story is progressing. I'd give it a watch, even if it might not turn out to be a correct theory. I genuinely find the idea that Enma is making Phos into a sort of Bodhisattva, intriguing. Especially considering the nuggets of information that Ichikawa has left for us all the way leading to this chapter. |
| This ending left me broken and shattered... guess all that's left to do now is to wait, and to pray. |
| If I could be an expert in just one arcane, and madness inducing field of study, it would be you. |
ArchNiki said: i hope there wouldnt be any next chapters. for me it is complete and solid. any water will destroy that perfect monument It won't be finished until the autor says it is. Looking at the other works of ichikawa, they know perfectly how wrap their stories, and yeah, they really like these kind of bittersweet/tragic endings, but i think they can still go on with more and probably it would get even better. |
| Hopefully not, HnK has accomplished a lot for the amount of chapters that have been released thus far. Really hoping we start getting chapters in the near future, it's a true beauty from the art to the writing. |
