Damn, what a way to tell Phos that he was cucked lol.
Poor thing though, he's more alone now than ever. Even trying to assure himself of all he has done..........

This is such a wonky looking scene, Aechmea especially just looks so goofy in those sweats, and of course Cairn is now acting like one of those types' of girls.

Weird that the Lunarians are now reconstructing gems they turned to dust. Phos needs to be suspicious. He has lost his ties to the surface No one trusts the scheme to have the gems go voluntarily to the moon

Official RIP to Cairns masculinity. I guess Ghost was the masculine side.

Despite all the cute outfits and the shiny pretty upgrade, Cairn is becoming harder and harder for me to keep liking due to this abrupt personality change. I miss cairn-ghost. This cairn sucks and i hope its revealed that Prince is just using him so Cairn can get slapped with reality after treating Phos like crap. He deserves it at this point after all Phos has been through.

The relationship Cairn has with the Prince is super creepy, too. I wonder why Haruko Ichikawa decided to take this route.

New Moon character is pretty hot. I hope he pops up often. And then a cliff hanger. Bet Phos is going to have to give up part of his body yet again.

Yup. The only officially gendered gem, now. Though, its made clear that Cairn most likely doesn't know what it means to be " female " despite being treated by one by the Lunarians. It kinda just makes their relationship with the Prince a bit more creepy.

Wife? WIFE?! Are the gems even anatomically correct enough to be a "wife"? Or even a "husband" for that matter?

The Prince is a straight freak. He's probably going to have some kind of gem sex cult going once he gets all those dusted gems back in one piece!

I sincerely hope that there's a tiny sliver of Ghost left in Cairn that's lying in wait to take over.

Another chapter hit right in the feels. 10/10 Phos is heavily hit with all kinds of social alienation here. That desparate and pure attempt to justify its own life to itself at the end is just precious.
So, Barbata is a lunarian scientist whos speciality is gem necromancy and he's sporting a sort of goatee. Interesting. As if randomly appering horns of Aehma were not enough in previous chapter to drop evil undertones.
Yellow did not need any MORE PTSD than it already had though, hope it recovers.

Really weird chapter.
I'm watching anime since 2012. I also play games, sometimes.

Don't bother me if you want to 'become friends' or things like that.
It's tiresome. I know you just want to collect some meaningless numbers.
Thought: How many people sparked H. Charlotta just for blue pot?

i believe Phos is basically a human at this point. neither lunarian or gem.
"among monsters and humans, there are only two types.
Those who undergo suffering and spread it to others. And those who undergo suffering and avoid giving it to others." -Alice

“Evil is created when someone gives up on someone else. It appears when everyone gives up on someone as a lost cause and removes their path to salvation. Once they are cut off from everyone else, they become evil.” -Othinus

Okay, never mind Aechmea and Cairngorm. I'm starting to see tons of red flags pop up around Phos. They're falling deeper into despair as the chapters go by, if it wasn't obvious enough earlier. Surprisingly, Cairngorm gave Phos some good advice in this chapter:



...But I think it's going to be a while before Phos actually realizes the gravitas of the situation. Phos needs and I mean, NEEDS to learn to be considerate of others. If anyone here needs help, it's Phos.

Cairngorm went from great to the worst gem.
Can't wait to see if they can really revive the other ones or if it's a trap/scam
