The Loss Experienced in Change

What can living, breathing gemstones teach us about being human? Quite a lot actually.
Land of the Lustrous (Houseki no Kuni) is a 2017 manga adaptation set in a world inhabited by sentient gems (jewels), who fight off mysterious enemies from the sky, the Lunarians. Able to be broken, but always put back together just the same, the gems live thousands of years without questioning their purpose, gifted to them by Kongou-sensei, with rare exceptions like Cinnabar or Phosphophyllite (Phos). So, most of them live static lives, never seeking change or truth. However, those exceptions, namely Phos, do try to grow and change, taking direction from others like Diamond, who accepts herself, but not finding the same success. As a soft, non-durable jewel, Phos simply isn’t valued in her world. This leads her on an ever shifting quest, from creating an encyclopedia, to finding Cinnabar a better purpose, to taking Antarcticite’s place, and more. As her memories are lost and her body is replaced, will she find happiness by breaking their thousands of years stasis, or will she ultimately find suffering in a return to human ways? Land of the Lustrous is certainly an anime with deep themes, touching on change and its cost and reasoning, the perspective game of self worth, and what it means to be alive.

gotta love professor viral making me realize why I'm doing bad in English class

[@ProfessorViral]

I got one point above failing in English freshman year, and 100% the next. It really depends on the situation and if a teacher can get you interested

[@olivesusername]

​@@ProfessorViral It doesn't surprise me that someone who thinks this is deep would be doing bad in English class. "Loss" and "change" aren't themes unique to Land of the Lustrous, they're defining elements of what makes a story satisfying. Haven't you heard of the hero's journey? You could have made meaningful points if you did more research, but you couldn't even be bothered to read the manga

[@RDSRELOADED]

@@olivesusername lol y are you being so dismissive. First of all anime and manga is completely fucking different with literal literature in their approach as the first clearly lays out themes such as “hero’s journey”. Second English classes at least the ones I was in wasn’t as simple as oh that’s the theme of this writing. It’s style, historical background, etc. and lastly the person could be talking about expressing their thoughts on the subject clearly which even I struggle with it. Don’t mind me too much just screaming into the void

[@captainsancho1237]

@@olivesusernamedamn, I bet you’re real fun.

[@07deterin52]

the way i saw phos in the thumbnail and immediately my heart shattered because of joy and pain. i lowkey spoiled myself on the entire series by watching clips out of context, and I remember not even realizing the phos in episode one was the same character I saw at the end of the season. phos's change as they lose themselves both literally and figuratively genuinely feels so tragic the more time goes on. Like, this is the same character by technicality! But at the same time it's not, they've grown so far from the person they used to be. Ship of theseus goes crazy. and yes I agree with every comment telling you to read the manga, I think your ideas on change are a pretty interesting lens to view the series from.

[@ProfessorViral]

That's better proof that I could give for how drastic the change is, that an observer who never knew couldn't tell it was the same person!

[@strategicowl192]

You only talked about the anime, and considering a second season is extremely unlikely, I really hope you check out the manga. Also the manga is very good.

Jesus Christ, is all I have to say...

[@sunstonespice]

It’s incredible to see how vastly different and almost, upsetting?, Viral’s interpretation of these characters is without the mountain of context and continuity missing from the anime because of how early in the series it cuts off verses the manga. But that’s not Viral’s fault by any means and his breakdown makes perfect sense. The video’s fantastic. But hoo boy. My guy has NO IDEA.

[@andrewsad1]

Yeah, it's hard to talk about without spoiling anything, but the themes he talks about make perfect sense only for the anime. Highly anticipating a followup video at some point discussing the manga, because he deserves at least two views for talking about my favorite manga

[@ProfessorViral]

I figured it would be slightly less in depth, but I didn't imagine it could be so different. It's a manga I'll for sure consider above some others for one day, with that in mind, just so I can see

[@sunstonespice]

@@ProfessorViral Highly recommended. It goes in wildly unexpected directions and the anime cuts off right before introducing quite possibly the most important secondary character in the series.

[@AllTheArtsy]

yep, the story takes on such a vastly different meaning, the moment you understand what the big picture actually is. and the vastness of time that the story covers. and what "change" means for these characters, esp Phos.

[@AllTheArtsy]

"ever since i started the show, i've wondered when [cinnabar's] power will play into a larger purpose" OH MAN OH MAN when the moment comes, it hits so so hard. and not in a good way ;_______;

[@cressentrose2249]

Since the Manga is already if not closed to finished I hope they actually do pick it back up for animation. There are a lot of characters including Phos who grow and change, my favorite being Rutile, Padparascha, and Cairngorm. I described this series to someone else as a show bad coping mechanisms for depression, but unironically the manga got me through some really hard times so I hope more people will pick it up and give it a chance.

READ THE MANGA PLEASE IT GOES SO MANY PLACES

[@fluffycloud3529]

Thank you for your well-worded thoughts once more! Because of my personal perspective, I really feel like the story of Phos is a neurodivergent one. Too weak to function in the system, so from an outside perspective, questioning it- whilst simultaneously feeling pained at not being able to participate in it like everyone else can. Then adapting, changing through perhaps taking ADHD meds- but losing your old personality and charm in exchange for functionality- or focusing on work and losing touch with your hobbies or social life- because it's too much to juggle it all together. This left quite an impact, thank you

[@symphonyspeed3226]

Oh god the moment i saw the thumbnail and i was immediately thrown back to when i accidentally found the anime version without any idea it was originally a manga. I was always aware that it was quite a contemporary story and considering my age when i watched it, i didn’t understand anything and simply watched it for the animation and character designs But holt shit i never realised how freakin deep the rabit hole goes, especially when i decided to take a peek at thd manga and ... Let just say my head was a bundle of wires in the end Anyway great analysis! Had a great time coming to understand this anime i briefly encountered but had a lasting impression

[@GladiusMalus]

I am always weak to stories driven by the importance of memory. Its not as defining here as in other cases, but the idea of loosing a piece of you physically is equivalent to loosing a part of your memory... of who you are, of what you feel, of what you want... just hits a spot where I have to tear up a little. I value memories and find the thought of forgetting thing heartbreaking. What important or rather defining moments have we ourselves lost to time itself? When will be the last instance I remember a moment I hold so dear in my heart right now, how many do I not remember anymore? Thats also why stories like "All you need is kill" or even more "Undead Lovers" destroy me so much inside. Loosing who we are, changing ... it feels scary, yet necessary, sometimes driven by us, sometimes by other, sometimes we dont even know by whom.... I wanted to listen to this in the background but endend up focusing completely on the video as a whole. Very captivating, great video, looking toward the next. :)

[@rmt3589]

Reminds me of my gamedev journey. First started with python, for ml, with gamedev being a fun idea, but never even making a window. Then a friend got me into Unity. It was fast. I could make a lot of stuff way faster than I ever could before. But it lacked power, and eventually I got hurt using it. (Unity hurt a LOT of ppl last year though, wasn't just me) Now I'm working on making that new engine. It has power, but is slow. Like her, I lack the years of knowledge needed to actually use it. And while I'm learning a lot, my legs, my skill cannot carry it yet. So new skills drip into the rest of my life, consuming me at times. For better or worse, pieces of my past have to be left behind for me to move forward with this. This was an amazing video! Never heard of this anime before, and may not watch it. Always been a fan of gemstones, be it metaphysics, wishing I had a Crystal Beast deck in Yu-Gi-Oh, or my love of Steven Universe. Probably should watch this, ngl.

whoa I didn't expect you to cover Houseki no Kuni 😲

[@ProfessorViral]

Someone told me to years ago, and I didn't listen. Really should have earlier haha

[@Goommy]

So now that I'm finished catching my breath after the kick in the chest that is this video: As always, I love how deeply you go into into the themes and ideas behind anime. I tend to enjoy stuff more on the surface level, for me that was Houseki's fully CG style and the post-post-post-apocalypse setting, but that theme of change did strike a chord with me way back when it was released. It struck an even deeper chord with me now that I've been going through so much, relative, rapid change. I think the concept of the ship of Theseus applies here, after all, if you've changed almost everything about you, are you still 'you'? Is change a good thing if you lose sight of why you changed in the first place? It's a sobering thought, but like you said, once you beginning to change in such a drastic way, the only way forward feels like further and further change. Thanks for making yet another great video, looking forward to the next one~

[@ProfessorViral]

I think that change is a good thing, only because it must happen. For every ill that change brings, staying exactly the same brings just as many. Knowing that, all we can do is be aware of change and it's dangers, so that when it is exerting a large pull on us, we're aware of what is being lost, and what isn't

[@GhostManCrisis]

Great critique. Loved the video. Saw this ages ago as entertainment while trying to right myself after years of unemployemnt....through a fog. Now, it's interesting how much more one can take away as a second viewing. Must one lose something of themselves to change?

[@ProfessorViral]

To some extent, I do think so. However, I bring this all up because awareness of that fact is what minimizes the cost. If we are actively considering what we gain and lose when we change, since we are guaranteed to change, then we can be much more involved in creating our "self"

[@GhostManCrisis]

@@ProfessorViral fair, but we must also be cognizant that's as we progressed through life, we will encounter ideas that challenge and logically defeat previous preconceptions therefore providing no reason to hold on does preconceptions while adopting the new better ideas.

[@ProfessorViral]

The sad answer is that I don't really have one. I've never taken a writing course or really studied it on my own for that matter, it's just how my brain words in a way, that I put way too many words to everything all the time (like right now). But, I will say one of the things that got me actually utilizing that part of me was philosophy. A philosophy ethics course in college gave me the proper backing to turn the stories in my head into something meaningful, and what I recognized of that material in Psycho-Pass kicked off my love for actually putting those words onto paper. The most I can suggest is finding something so compelling you feel you have to write about it, and then just doing it, and to a reasonable extent, doing it until you feel satisfied with what you're saying. I think some of what I made even just 2 or 3 years ago is pedestrian at best, and that was after 2 or 3 years of doing this already

I could explain it all to you, my timeline and background and ideas, but why should I when you open with insults? Your observations are worthless when thrown around in harshness and without anything constructive. And you know what, I don't give a damn. I listened to comments like this before, and it ruined my mentality for months and made my life hell. I worked on this, I put it together and put it out there, and people are responding to it well and saying it led them to think about themselves, and that is a god damn proof of value and worth my efforts. I don't give a shit if you think I'm smart or not.
