Land of the LustrousHIDIVE describes Land of the Lustrous as:

In the distant future, new life forms known as Gems inhabit the Earth. These immortal beings find themselves under attack by the Lunarians, who use the shattered bodies of the Gems as decorations. For this reason, each of the Gems are assigned a purpose. However, being one of the frailest of the group and with no particular skill, Phos is assigned by Kongō, the master of Gems, to create an encyclopedia of natural history. The mission to accomplish this task takes Phos on an unexpected journey.

The series was lauded among fans during its initial TV run, especially in regards to its lush CGI animation. The title took home “Best CGI” at this year’s Crunchyroll Awards, and was nominated for Anime of the Year, Best Action, Best Animation, Best Score, and Best CGI.
