It was published by Kodansha in Monthly Afternoon magazine from October 2012 to April 2024, with its chapters collected in thirteen tankōbon volumes. Set in a world inhabited by Lustrous – immortal humanoid lifeforms who are the embodiments of gemstones, it chronicles their efforts to find the place where they belong while fighting to defend themselves against the celestial humanoid race known as the Lunarians.
