I still am enjoying this series. It definitely has the tone and feel of Fairytail, but it is its own individual story for sure. Excited for Volume 3!

Edens Zero, Vol. 2 (My Kindle Review)
On the start on their adventure, the three heroes’ visit to a professor quickly turns into a wild time travel adventure with a few twists, new friends and surprises. In the end, they do manage to get their space vessel for their future. A (100%/Outstanding)

I'm really loving the developments of these series, again I feel the nostalgia of fairy tail throughout but its being over powered by this new story becoming its own and not just familiar.
The characters that are being introduced are really cool too, i really am looking forward to seeing them develop throughout!

Continuing Mashima’s new sci-fi fantasy series...
This volume began with us being met by Professor Weisz... or at least someone on Planet Norma going by that name. We are also introduced properly to Pino and Elsie Crimson. This volume introduced a very interesting phenomenon called a ‘chronophage’ which I hope will be explored and explained a bit further in the books to come. Overall a fun read to experience while life occurred (hence the ages it took me to read it). 5 stars from me.

I have mixed feelings. I'd love to see it as an anime tho.

We first pick up with the crew travelling back 50 years ago in Planet Norma and we meet the young Professor Wise Steiner and facing off against Sibir and his crew who wanna use this tiny robot Pino for stealing. Shiki becomes compassionate and helps her out and rescues her and there are fun cameos and we got more answers about Shikis origin. And as they escape, the young professor comes with them and his ether is that he can modify machines and then we learn of Time eaters and how that planet Nouma is destroyed and will remain that way. They face off against Elsie and has one of the best fights like ever! That time with Shiki using "Gravity cosmos" and turns out it was always her plan to give it to Shiki. We get more revelations about this world and the crew advances to meet MOTHER and with Shooting Starlight (Cosmic Police) after them! The next arc promises to be huge!

This continues to build on the fun of the first volume, and manages to add some more stakes to the continuation! I'm liking this more than I thought I would.

I don’t usually read mangas, I prefer more scary books. but I’m glad I read this one because it was really good, the graphics and the story lines were amazing, no spoilers but the ending had a huge plot twist to it. Definitely worth the read.

Acheii muito divertido de ler, por não ser um mangá enjoativo. Os personagens são muito lindos.

Wow ce second tome était incroyable! J’ai vraiment beaucoup aimé et ça conforte l’idée que j’ai eu après avoir lu le premier tome. Cette série va beaucoup me plaire c’est sur et certain! J’aime les personnages, j’aime l’intrigue, j’aime tout, vraiment. J’ai déjà hâte de lire la suite et je sens que je vais me régaler avec tous ces tomes déjà disponible!
On retrouve nos protagonistes qui sont en plein voyage pour aller rencontrer Mother, la déesse du Cosmos. Ils décident de se rendre sur la planète Norma pour aller voir le docteur Wise pour avoir un vaisseau bien plus performant. Mais lorsqu’ils arrivent sur cette planète, ils se rendent compte qu’ils ont fait un saut dans le temps de 50 ans. Ils sont donc face au Docteur Wise, plus jeune de 50 ans… Mais en plus de ça, ils font face à une bande de pirates.. Ils se retrouvent donc au cœur d’une aventure pleine de rebondissements! Eux qu’ils veulent de l’aventure ils vont être servis!
J’ai beaucoup aimé ce tome, surtout avec l’apparition de Pino, un petit android qui vient de la même époque que Rebecca. Ce petit android m’a énormément touché. Elle est beaucoup trop mignonne et m’a fait vraiment beaucoup de peine à cause de ce que Sybille lui a fait subir. J’aime toujours autant Rebecca qui n’a vraiment pas sa langue dans sa poche et qu’il ne faut clairement pas embêter! Elle a un caractère de folie et ne se laisse vraiment pas faire. On découvre également un peu plus le personnage d’Erzy, qui au final m’a pas mal étonné. Le personnage du Docteur Wise, version plus jeune, est très intéressant et surtout très différent de la version plus vieille!
J’ai hâte de découvrir le troisième tome. Tout comme le premier tome, ce deuxième opus, la fin nous donne clairement envie de se plonger dans la suite immédiatement. Cette fin nous laisse vraiment un suspense dingue. Je sens que je vais dévorer cette série en un rien de temps!

"You see...in this story...'time' doesn't hold much meaning."
Hmmm...that's an interesting first page as we meet a young girl calling herself Xiaomei who lets us know we will learn more of her in time but for now consider her the narrator of the story (reminds me of the Watchers in the Marvel What If? series.) With the above words mentioned we get a quick recap of volume 1 before returning to planet Norma with Rebecca, Happy, and Shiki being surprised by a young man with a gun while looking for Professor Weisz. The truth will come out as new and old tech are discovered, the crew of three expand a little bit, and one of the toughest gangs on Norma finds out why hurting anyone Shiki calls a friend is a sure fire mistake (so many potential spoilers in this action driven and occasionally emotional volume.)
On top of the whole planet Norma events we also get to see the first encounter of the crew with the dread pirate Elsie Crimson as they continue the quest they started in volume one. Want to find out all the details? Get reading, Duckies! :)

I'm really enjoying this manga so far, Shiki's gravity powers are awesome and lead to incredible battles. Then you have to love Pino, cause it's impossible not to. It's going to be interesting to see more of who Elsie is, and her conflicts with Justice of the space army.
Generally you gotta love this manga, it's got a good story, gorgeous art, and loveable characters. Once again wish that Rebecca was just a little bit more able to fight, but not much to do about that. With Happy in gun form she can do some damage though, so that's something.
The world has been built up in these first two volumes, and (according to the author's note) the story is about to get started properly. I'm looking forward to seeing what Mashima has planned.
And of course, it's fun finding these little references to Fairy Tale hidden here and there.

Untuk volume ini unsur Action semakin meningkat ketimbang volume sebelumnya, komedi juga tetap ada dan fanservis mulai meningkat ditampilkan.
Tujuan para tokoh sudah semakin jelas, dan konflik yang disajikan sudah mulai merekah, namun konsep Edenszero yang di di volume sebelumnya masih menjadi misteri sampai di volume ini.
Karakter Weisz yang nakal dan sedikit pekat sebagai protagonis menambah alur semakin kaya.

Still not really sure how I feel about this series. It's interesting, but I feel like I need more answers than it provides.

Sorry I still find the characters and visual style still too close to Fairy Tail however the space-opera premise is starting to grow on me.

Inhalt
Shiki, Rebecca und Happy wollen Mother finden, doch bis jetzt hat keiner das Ziel jemals erreicht. Doch die Drei lassen sich nicht unterkriegen und verfolgen weiter ihr Ziel. Doch damit sie ihre Reise endlich starten können, brauchen sie ein Raumschiff. Daher begeben sie sich auf den Weg zu Professor Weisz. Doch auf dem Planeten Norma angekommen, kommt alles ganz anders als erwartet. Denn die Zeit spielt hier völlig verrückt.
Cover
Das Cover ist mal wieder richtig schön, vor allem weil so ziemlich alle wichtigen Charaktere aus diesem Band auf dem Cover zu sehen sind.
Meinung
Ich liebe die Serie jetzt schon. Ich muss einfach so oft schmunzeln und auch der Geschichtsverlauf ist alles andere als langweilig. Ich mag die Charaktere total gerne. Vor allem weil sich die Crew immer weiter vergrößert. Außerdem lernt man immer mehr über das Universum kennen, in welchem sich die Serie abspielt. Jeder Planet ist auf seine Art und Weise besonders. Es steckt so viel Ideenreichtum in der Serie. Ich hoffe, dass es so weitergeht.

Avec ce tome on est encore dans la description de l'univers mais franchement ça m'a beaucoup plu! Et y a déjà des persos qui sont mes chouchous : Happy, Pino et Wise par exemple. J'attends de voir comment Erzy va évoluer pour voir si c'est une copie d'Erza ou bien si elle arrive à se détacher clairement. à voir ce que va faire Hiro Mashima par la suite, en attendant j'ai tellement hâte d'avoir une idée plus précise de leur background respectif. Pour l'instant, on a eu un aperçu de celui de Shiki, un bon morceau de celui de Wise et vite fait des flashbacks sur Rebecca. Enfin bref, je veux en voir +

Tengo que ponerme seriamente con esta serie, porque me leo un tomo cada 4-5 meses y la cuestión es que me gusta el tomo. Pero luego no sé que pasa (pues que tengo muchas lecturas pendientes y no avanzo)... El caso es que me pongo con otras cosas y lo dejo ahí apartada.
Yo creo que por el momento, es como bien, una lectura interesante, pero no termino de engancharme a la historia para seguir leyendo y ver que pasa...
Tengo en mi estantería hasta el tomo 8 así que por narices, segiré leyendo el manga, cuando leeré el siguiente tomo? nadie lo sabe xD

I have made a mistake, and my mistake was Kindle unlimited.
So. Based off this one, I'm likely collecting these, cause in the words of Shiki, space is awesome.
Are there a lot of Fairy Tail similarities? Yes. Especially in characters. But I forgive, cause this story is cool. I almost cried over a robot today. The magic is cool, and I really want to learn more about it and how it is created and works. The introduction of a weird space villain, a should be but maybe isn't space villain, we have government intervention, I am here for this.
Really excited to keep going here.

This volume takes place 50 years in the past! I don’t want to go into the how and how long….but strap on in for another amazing ride! volume 2 picks up exactly where volume 1 left off and the fun in each and every page is apparent. Hiro Mashima is crafting another solid book full of fun and hijinks. Pages 80 and 81 gave me flashbacks to Akira Toriyama’s Ginyu Force within the pages of Dragon Ball Z. Pages 142 and 143 are my favorite homage pages of this volume. It’s another very enjoyable entry to start this series off with a lot of positive energy!

Erza!
Lol I know about the whole struggling to draw characters different for artist but I feel like Mashima didn't even try to make them a little different. I mean I'm enjoying the story anyway but I don't even remember their names. I'm thinking of them as Lucy and Natsu's daughter, mini-Gray, Erza, blond Jellal 🤣

Lol I think I'm actually enjoying this one more than Fairy Tail. This is probably my biggest surprise manga of the year. I had no plans to pick it up, but decided to give it a try because I've been in a sci-fi mood and I've actually been having lots of fun reading it. Mashima annoys me with the echi and fan service, but he always gets me with the friendships and emotional moments 😭💕

Dieser Band beschreibt eine sehr interessante Welt. Ich bin neugierig, was wird noch alles auf die Gruppe warten in den Weiten des Weltalls? Dabei ist die Gruppe nun wieder etwas gewachsen, ich finde die Charaktere bisher interessant. Die Geschichte wirkt recht groß angelegt. Ich mag die Zeichnungen sehr und finde es toll das es quasi zwei „Maskottchen“ gibt.

Rebecca, Happy, and Shiki travel 50 years back in time. Professor Weisz escapes from Sibir again. The Professor wants to commandeer Shiki and Rebecca's ship. Captain Elsie forcibly takes control of the ship. Shiki beats Elsie but it turns out it was a robot decoy.

4/5 I’m having a lot of fun with this so far. Shiki and Rebecca go to a different planet to find a planet in a time slip and a young version of the man they’re looking for, Weisz. We’re also introduced to another new ally the mini android Pinot. The first half involves that planet and battling the gangster Sibir.
After that we’re formally introduced to the space pirate Elsie Crimson (Erza Scarlet I see what you did there) we’re also introduced to the Interstellar Army.
Rebecca, Weisz, Shiki, Elsie, Happy, Pinot, and Sibir all on the cover of volume 2.

November 16, 2025Light and uncomplicated science fiction adventure, and warmly spirited — in short, a lot of fun. One particular concept, the "chronophage" (excellent name), a monster that devours a world's time, leaving it locked in a certain era, was an especially brilliant piece of sci-fi imagination.
