I share the same sentiments with Seto here in this ep. I think it's also pretty interesting to think about the people of the past and how they led their lives. It's kinda similar to how these minerals lived through time, I guess. Anyway, this ep was a great one. It focused on Imari, which also showed us her growth compared to the first time we saw her. She's also gotten quite reliable now, too.There are so many pretty crystals again here, but it's a color I really like, yayy. Reminds me so much of my oshi....Now I want these crystals too.

In this chapter, Ruri, Seto, and Imari embark on a fascinating adventure to find a hidden manganese mine a highly entertaining chapter that highlights Imari’s sense of humor and her enthusiastic, persevering drive to achieve her goal. The scenery is simply spectacular, and the explanations regarding manganese, its industrial uses, and its potential environmental impact on the land are very educational.

The way the old story is presented is super nice, and the animation quality is especially exquisite.

Episode Context

Ruri Rocks shifts gears in its tenth episode by pulling Yōko Imari into the spotlight as she takes the lead for the first time, guiding Ruri and Shōko through an exploration along abandoned railway tracks. The setting itself sets a contemplative, almost wistful tone, crumbling infrastructure meeting the quiet persistence of geology. Expect a slower, more reflective pace than usual, leaning into the show's strengths of weaving educational mineral content with genuine character moments. Yōko stepping up as guide introduces fresh group dynamics and themes of personal growth and trust. The episode balances its adventurous spirit with a sense of history layered into the landscape, making the mineral hunt feel earned rather than incidental. A character-driven mid-late season entry that rewards patience with warmth and discovery.
