Description

In the distant future, a new life form called "hōseki" (gems) is born. The 28 gems must fight against the "tsukijin" (moon people) who want to attack them and turn them into decorations, so each gem is assigned a role such as a fighter or a medic. Though she hopes to fight the moon people, Phos is a gem who is given no assignment until the gems' manager Adamantine asks her to edit a natural history magazine.

In einer fernen Zukunft werden die sogenannten „Juwelen“ geboren, eine neue, dem Menschen nicht unähnliche Lebensform. Jedem der insgesamt 28 Juwelen ist eine bestimmte Rolle zuteil, wie ein Kämpfer oder Heiler. Gemeinsam müssen sie sich gegen „Lunarier“ zur Wehr setzen, die sie angreifen und zu Schmuck verarbeiten wollen. Auch Phos würde den Lunariern ohne Zögern entgegentreten – nur hat sie als einzige keine Bestimmung. Schließlich trägt Kongou, der Leiter der Juwelen, ihr auf, ein ganz gewöhnliches Geschichtsmagazin aufzubereiten …
Testo della bandella:
In un futuro lontano, il mondo è popolato da gemme: ventotto pietre preziose dalle fattezze umane, forti ma delicate, in grado di rigenerarsi anche se in frantumi. La loro vita è una lotta eterna contro gli abitanti della Luna, che vogliono usarne i corpi per fabbricare armi e gioielli. Una battaglia in cui non c'è posto per Phos, troppo fragile per combattere, ma alla costante ricerca della risposta al mistero dell’esistenza...
