Description: Land of the Lustrous
In a place inhabited by jewels that take the form of people, Phosphophyllite (Phos) is weak (with one of the lowest hardnesses) and considered useless by their peers. Phos asks their aloof but wise colleague Cinnabar for help after they receive an assignment to create a natural history encyclopedia, thus beginning their friendship and personal growth. Meanwhile, the "jewel people" are at war with the Lunarians (Moon people) who want to take advantage of their luxury value.
Editor’s Note:
This description came from Wikipedia but I would really prefer to have an original description. Since I have not yet seen this anime I would not be a good person to write about it. If you would like to write an original description about this anime, please contact me.
