Land of the Lustrous 5

This book is highly enjoyable! Ichikawa's art style is unique, and the characters are all fresh and interesting! If you are just hopping in from the anime (because season one ended quite abruptly), this is the book you want to get! The story picks up a little bit before where the show left off! Overall, a great read that will make you dive in for more.

the book is in perfect condition but the first few pages are upside-down? the rest of the volumes I ordered were all right but ???

I love this series and have no complaints about the content of the story itself, however, the physical book itself is a bit of a mess. My copy arrived with several scratches/dings and tears on the cover surface. If it wasn't for the "new manga smell", I would have assumed that I bought a used copy. In addition to this, the first 20 numbered pages are repeated once, making the book much larger than previous volumes. I'm not sure if my copy was the only one to have this, but this misprint bothers me.

I love the story but if this is the end it really sucks it leave you hanging just like the series and in my opinion the story and the series were great but if this is the end of this book I will ever buy another one of his story

I enjoyed the manga itself, but something’s up with the binding. The pages were loose from the paperback the second I opened it (and there are two tables of contents for some reason). The pages stayed together and the cover is fine so I should be able to glue it myself, but it’s kind of weird.

Great manga. It's beautiful. The art is so unique and pretty. Good quality paper.

It's Land of The Lustrous. Obvious not 5 star material. It's DIAMOND material. :)

This is an amazing story. Can't wait for book 6 to come out!

Aunque no lo crean no es plagio de Steven Universe, ambas historias parecen haberse desarrollado por separado al mismo tiempo y que comparten muchísimos elementos que van desde el uso de gemas como protagonistas, claros elementos (bien desarrollados) de temática LGBT+, un protagonista imperfecto pero deseoso de crecer, una figura misteriosa (que también es el líder) que oculta información porque sí (al menos en este punto de la historia) y un enemigo muy grande y poderoso que se relaciona con el origen de las protagonistas, a lo sumo puede verse como una versión de las gemas defectuosas de la temporada 5 de SU.Ya me cansé que Fosfolofita pierda pedazos, ya que cada vez que lo hace su personalidad se hace más fría,

One of the best manga out there. No complaints about the story, but the quality of the book itself was somewhat dissapointing. The front and back cover arrived slightly torn and scratched at the edges. And the binding of the book is somewhat messy.

Since this is already volume 5 it can be assumed that most readers are familiar with the story. It remains engaging, the world building and characters -especially the main character Phos- are very interesting and the art is still wonderful. In each volume the author amazes again with smart usage of black and white contrasts and interesting angles. It is a pleasure to look at.However, I can only give this particular volume a 4 star rating because the cover print and binding quality of the book has decreased in comparison to volume 1-4 and 6.The binding doesn't feel sturdy and it is also visible that the glue did not stick properly so the book has to be handled with utmost care that no pages will come off eventually. I have already received the book with the smudges/ink and slight damage on the edges (see picture).Furthermore, the register accuracy of the cover print is off so it appears blurry (see picture) and the paper is different with a matte instead of a glossy finish which overall does not feel and look as good as the other volumes. The inner pages are fine but for a pricetag at about €11~€13 per book I find these faults extremely disappointing. It is possible this was just a bad print run but I do not want to order a second copy to compare.

Portada hermosa, la trama va profundizando y nuestro Phos está decidido en descubrir los misterios detrás del Sensei

Looking forward to seeing where the story goes make sure to watch the Anime it is terrific.
