Review of Land of the Lustrous

Phosphophyllite is a Lustrous looking for a purpose, but fail due to their own incompetence. But still tries and matures from the experiences through the series. It's no different than us humans. We look for something we want, we may fail or strive. Sometimes we claim to be talented, sometimes we feel like we are useless, marching on until we find our own place to belong to. Many people can relate to this situation. Lustrous are very human, with obvious physiological differences, but our minds are similar. It's a futuristic setting with no humans, but there are Lunarians who hunt the Lustrous from time totime, and so a good portion of them end up as fighters, to protect and survive, becoming a great inspiration for Phosphophyllite. Like people who are inspired by jobs that make a lot of money, Phos longing is like that. With their experiences, there are changes, discoveries, new desires, people they meet, failures, successes, and so on.
Tragedy and failure surround us all the time, and their struggle to survive makes it a dark show that doesn't shy away from showing a wild world.
A lot of Buddhist symbolism is also present, due to the author's experiences in the past, and people with the right knowledge can have a different perspective and speculate or understand better than others.
It's high quality CGI looks better than what most anime out there try to achieve, which gives it a lot of charm without being distracting. 2D would have been much better, but who knows if would have been done at all due to production costs.
The characters have similar bodies, with distinguishable hair and personalities that vary along with their own body modifications. Their evolution is the most fun aspect in the series, at least for me.
Everything has already been modeled, it's really a waste that there is no season 2 as of now, but the manga is there for anyone who wants more, while the anime is a perfect place to start.
