    No manga has ever hit me so hard as Houseki no kuni I was drawn in by beautiful art and amazing characters and then punched by existentialism. I started angry that at a surface level the later chapters provided little resolution for Phos' relations with the other gems. Now that I understand the themes its an amazing story but I can understand how people could come away feeling confusion or a lack of closure. Each time I read a chapter I discover new things and find new connections or symbolism.

      I agree! There’s a lot to discover with every reread and rewatch, and while I do understand the confusion many may have regarding the story, the more you let it sit, the more appealing it gets.

    Houseki no kuni was my first anime if not counting Miyazaki's. And now it finally ended. To this day, I have such mixed feelings about it, from nostalgia and amazement to confusion from not understanding all of the Buddhism stuff. I appreciate Houseki no kuni for being such an unusual and stunning experience + introducing me to anime (even tho it's very different from most titles).

    Btw. Manga Recommendation if you like Houseki no Kuni:
    "Romancing Apoptosis Doll: Sartain in Love" Far shorter than Houseki no Kuni but the author can give that similar vibe with faces and psychodrama/-thriller feeling. Definitely not on the same level, but I think a pearl to be appreciated if you like stuff like HnK or Made in Abyss or Higurashi (my absolute favourite horror anime) or Promised Neverland or the other series of the same author Happy Sugar Life, those series definitely all have overlaps in the psychodrama/psychothriller/horror(sometimes body horror) apartment.

    hello, once again thank you for this video:) its also my first time seeing something i love so much come to an end, truly a bittersweet feeling:') there's no hiatus or anything again. its nice to listen to others' experiences and realize that i'm not alone in this. i never realized how much i love houseki no kuni until time has passed and i find myself returning to it again and again, and still be able to fall in love with it like the first time. i really wish i could relive every experience with this series and love it a little bit more. i couldn't stop wishing that i could've been in the fandom like 6 or 7 years ago and not for 2 and a half years. but at the moment, getting to say goodbye to houseki no kuni alongside everyone is enough. because i was so lucky to have discovered this series in the first place that i get to be here with everyone, right now:') there are so many analysis videos/essays that i haven't finished reading and stuff but it has come to an end...
    it was beautiful listening to your retrospect and your thoughts. since i don't engage in much fandom content and just watch everyone from afar, i've always been scared that my strong feelings would appear... weird? because it's so hard to find someone as interested in this manga in real life! so there was really no one i can talk about it with so endearingly, just until recently, now that i have a friend who just read the manga and that i start interacting with everyone more!
    i also feel... understood, as if i'm hearing how i appreciate the series through your words. the art style, the story, the intentions, everything, it's amazing! being in the fandom makes me feel so warm.
    i didn't expect this to be a rant lol but anyways, thank you again for your videos. they really created a space where i feel safe discussing my love for houseki no kuni knowing that there are also people like me. its truly been a wonderful experience! whatever awaits, i hope you will have a good time in the future!:)

    I first watched the Anime when it came out. I tried to read the Manga immediately after but was put off by the extremely simplistic artstyle. Dropping it before even getting to the Lunar Surface. Just two Months ago i picked up the Series again out of a whim and… this time everything clicked. The Story gripped me in a way like i rarely experienced. The Invasion Arc was painful and epic alike but… those Chapters in this last Arc just made me feel like i was watching the likes of Angels Egg or Evangelion for the first time again. Such an alien and bold concept… absolutely unique and Beautiful! At the end there really was no longer any Human influence left and it showed. An unforgettable Journey to be sure~ Now then… goodbye Phos… goodbye Land of the Lustrous.

    I have very mixed feeling on Houseki no kuni. I really don't know yet what to feel about the ending. It was quite the journey, even though I was a chapter to chapter reader only towards the last 10ish chapters. It still saddens me, it was definitely one of the best manga running. Especially Phos as a character is amazing, but the entire character writing was overall interesting.
    Still cannot really say anything special about the end. I might have to reread that part in one go. Right now reading Monster though and that got priority as Houseki no Kuni is too fresh for me to touch yet. It's tragic (and I just finished Happy Sugar Life anime, and that was also tragic in a very fd up way, one man can only take that much. Well, Houseki no Kuni was fd up in many ways as well.), yet the ending was kinda smoothly laid down and from a certain point on could easily tell that there was just not that much to come, so I was kinda prepared for the message to come, but it still shuck me.
