Ruri no Houseki – Episode 1 – Ruri Goes Crystal and Gem Hunting

July 6, 2025 by Chikorita157 4 Comments
With this necklace, Ruri grows an obsession over shiny stones.

Tanigawa Ruri becomes obsessed with shiny objects, such as crystals, after seeing a crystal necklace in a shop. However, getting it is impossible, but there is an alternative.

Even Aoi wants Ruri to face the fact that she can’ get it.

As expected, Ruri is at a department store and in the jewelry section. Ruri likes a crystal necklace because of its shiny and pretty appearance. As Ruri gets excited by how good she looks in it, Aoi wants Ruri to give up on the idea, as she can’t afford it. Ruri thinks she can find people to buy it for her.

As expected, Ruri had an outburst when her mother said no.

That didn’t work as her mother refuses to give her money for the necklace. Yep, she begs for it as she thinks it’s a rare item. That is when she realizes that her mother has been given crystals and gems from her grandfather and wonders if she still has them. Of course, she gave them away, and she got upset.

Ruri feels down as looking for gems is harder than expected.
An attractive young lady checks on Ruri.
Ruri sees how pretty she is.

Then Ruri got the idea to find them, but she is not having luck. That is one until she finds a young lady with a hammer on her back asking if Rushi is okay. I find it interesting that Ruri becomes captivated by Nagi’s appearance. Not too surprising since Nagi is well-endowed. Also, it’s interesting that Aoi and the other girl are well-endowed compared to Ruri. She is interested in rocks and studies them. Eventually, they discover an area with numerous crystals and explain how they form.

Nagi helps get the crystal for Ruri.
Ruri seems happy to have it.
Funny how Nagi has to restrain Ruri when she had her temper tantrum.
It’s not what you think it is.
Ruri sees so many pretty stones.

Believe it or not, the various gems seem bountiful in Japan because it’s in the ring of fire, where the plates are the most active. At least Ruri got a nice sight of the crystal formations, and even got one that she wants. As Ruri discovers, there are areas where she can’t gather stones due to various reasons, including safety and environmental concerns. Funny how she gets into a tantrum before Nagi tells her to stop, or she can’t come with her anymore. They are also looking for garnets in a river. They eventually find some, until they discover an area with a large number of them.

That said, the first episode is enjoyable. Sure, Ruri gets into a lot of tantrums and can be a bit annoying, but at least she has found a new hobby. It shows when Ruri asks for tools instead of a crystal necklace. Additionally, the sites featuring gems and crystals are beautiful. That said, there were some lovely moments with Ruri and Nagi, especially when it involved Ruri blushing.

    @chikorita157@chikorita157.com It actually worked pretty well as a self-contained pilot episode.

    Ruri and Nagi are a petite and stacked babes respectively. I will definitely enjoy their combined sexiness, mining for pretty rocks and of course their strong shipping potential. Fingers crossed we get plenty to work with.

    I also really like the OP. It’s tied with WataNare as my current favorites of the season.
