The wait is over, the series is back to monthly serialization!!

And for the newest chapter, it looks like those used to be gems are enjoying their luxurious life in the moon, meanwhile our little boy still suffers on Earth.

Black cat is out of business. They won’t be translating it from here on. There are a few shoddy translations out already, but nothing too outstanding.

Our 10000 year hiatus is finally over and with it came a pretty unwelcoming comeback. How much time has passed in the story between chapter 95 and 96? I might have missed something but is it directly after? Or have a few centuries already passed. If that’s the case, then Phos has really been stuck in that slumped over position all this time… I wonder if given enough time, eventually they’ll “stop thinking” XD

The art is amazing as always the use of negative space in those spreads damn

I would have thought Phos would have newborn gems join it, but seems the lunarians are just taking them and really leaving Phos alone.

>And it will only take 10,000 years.

Yeah "only"... they always talk as if it being one or two weeks lol. Also these gems, enjoying the heck out of their lives. Phos on the other hand, well nothing much has changed for him apart from the fact that he's been continuously going over sensei's memories for this whole time.

Also just please stop showing sympathy for Phos, after all it was because of you lot he's reduced to this state.

Ah, yes. Back to monthly suffering and despair. Finally.

And because someone asked how much time has passed since Ch.95: it's no specified, but since they are still talking about the wait being 10.000 years, I'd assume that it plays a few months after Ch.95 - since all the new arrivals (e.g. Cinnebar, Rutile, etc.) seem pretty acclimated to the whole living-on-the-moon-and-also-we-are-spooky-ghost-being-now-thing.

Screw all of them. Even Antarc apparently. Only one to give a shit is Euc, which doesn't surprise me - he/she always seemed to be one of the most empathetic gems.

FI NA LLEYYYYYYY โœจ๐Ÿงš๐Ÿฟ‍โ™‚๏ธ

I think some thousand years have passed, i need another translation but i think they are saying that another 10.000 needs to pass or something….
The lunarians seems to be living wonderfully, new gems if not all of them, are now lunarians. The admirabilis have evolved into tiny beings. They keep taking away new gem formations and letting phos alone. Everything seems like more than a hundred of years for sure.

So I don’t know if they still want more thousand years or we are in the middle of the ten first ones or wat.

Either way next chapter needs to be Kongo’s memories pleaseeee! And the next one should be the end of the 10.000 maybe??

Crazy coincidence.

I watched the Houseki No Kuni anime when it released and rewatched it two or three times over the years, because the story is just so gripping.

Three days ago I decided, sort of randomly and after all this time, to finally start reading the manga. I just finished chapter 95 today and then got very confused when a few hours later chapter 96 popped up. I thought the manga had finished and 95 was the ending.

Now I realize it was on hiatus and it came back the literal day I finish reading. As I thought the manga had finished, there was no way I was keeping up with the news around this manga.

Just want to say that I am very excited to see where this story is going to go next.

Are we in it again, guys? Are we in for our monthly dose of suffering and depression? Count. Me. In. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Ten thousand years have passed since I saw the last moon hovering over Phos' head as they continue to be in such a sorry state of what have come from their insatiable curiosity and desire. And the wait may continue as Phos will remain kneeling still and the other gems are enjoying their time on the moon, unthankfully so.

Really, I've come to forget most of the characters. I can only name a few as I see them appear across the pages, such as Antarcticite, Diamond, and of course Cinnabar. It's saddening to see them being... unthankful? Again, my memory is clouded. But seeing them enjoying their time while Phos is alone on earth is quite uncomfortable.

Lastly, we finally have Houseki no Kuni back to our monthly cycle. Now, would anyone please hide that PS5 away from Ichikawa? (And possibly hide any PS6 release news from her as well...) ๐Ÿคฃ

I think 10.000 years already passed and Phos is close to becoming the prayer machine, I did not expect Phos to be in the same position and the lunarians recovered all new formed earth gems and also the admirabillis, there is no one on earth right now. Phos will surely pray now that she hates the lunarians and her former gem friends are lunarians also, there's a win-win situation but it's Phos we're talking about
so even Cinnabar was made a lunarian, that cool I guess, I thought she was fully assimilated with Phos, so that means that from the gems we know only Ghost and Lapis are forever dust

Just look at how clumsy Cinnabar is when she's about to go to the party, it looks like she still hasn't fully coped with the new life on moon yet. The dicussion later on this chapter between Kongou and Aechmea about their plan with Phos also said "It's hard to tell the difference between 10000 years and 5 billion years". So I guess most likely it's only several months or years passed since then.

they said that they recovered the admirabillis and the only left there are the ones that can't think anymore, that can only happen with the process of evolution. also, the chapter is named 10.000 years, sensei said it takes 10.000 years and the lunarians are waiting for the exact day. who knows how much time they tried to fix cinnabar's poison.
the party is held because those 10.000 years are close to end

They don't need to fix cinnabar's uncontrollable poison since they turned her (and every other gem) into a lunarian.

Even gems are aware on how ungaretuf pieces of shit they are I guess. Cinnabar told she was bothered of not feeling bothered leaving Phos to 10000 years of loneliness.

And I bet whatever Aechmea and Sensei will propose to Euc to do smth for Phos will once again be something fucked up

what I was trying to say is that the lunarian transformation can't be that easy and it was a pain to collect all cinnabar pieces from earth and maybe they had to fix her poison before transforming her but I'm just theorizing here, nothing concrete but it may be as easy as we saw in amethyst transformation.

Seems Lunarians collected all shards from Phos' gemocide off screen and brough to moon. It would certainly take time to sort the pieces out, but they have the tech to sort gem dust scattered on the surface of the moon. We don't exactly know how long has it been since everyone abandoned Earth, but there is certainly a time skip

I need help to figure who is who now. This 10.000 years of hiatus is too hard for the memory (good for you who is binging the manga just now).


Anyway, since they become futile ghosts in the moon (Land of Superfluous lol) there's nothing interesting anymore about the (ex)gems.



Is there any mistery left? I feel like there is not anything more to develop in the plot. Maybe the manga will be finished with more 2 or 3 chapters (but if so, why the mangaka spent 1 and half year in a hiatus?)

Inheritance process? Does this mean Phos is going to become the next Kongo-sensei? With the Lunarians living their best lives, I seriously doubt they're wanting to be prayed out of existence now. This would be the best time for Phos to wake up and pray so hard that the entire galaxy crumbles while the Lunarians lament as they dissolve into nothingness.
