Auf dem Planeten Foresta angekommen müssen Shiki und seine Freunde feststellen, dass Ziggy bereits dort war und für Unruhe gesorgt hat. Shiki und Co. wollen natürlich helfen, doch das Überfallkommando kommt ihnen in die Quere, sodass sie erst einmal gegen diese kämpfen müssen. Währenddessen gibt es ebenfalls eine Überraschung auf der Edens Zero. Ein alter Bekannter taucht plötzlich auf und bringt die Four Shining Stars in Gefahr.

Das Cover gefällt mir eigentlich ganz gut, jedoch hätte man aus meiner Sicht Shiki auf dem Cover weglassen können. Elsie und Justice hätten vollkommen ausgereicht und ein starkes Cover gegeben. Der Zeichenstil ist gewohnt klasse. Ich liebe den Ideenreichtum von Hiro Mashima. Jeder Planet und jede Figur wird bis ins kleinste Detail ausgearbeitet und ist originell. Auch die Geschichte ist immer wieder eine Freude zu lesen. Man weiß einfach bei keinem Manga, was auf einen zukommt.

Shiki und seine Freunde haben einen sehr starken Zusammenhalt, den ich sehr schätze und den die Geschichte auch auf ihre Weise einzigartig macht. Am besten war die Szene, wo Shiki Homura rettet, er sie auf die Schultern nimmt und dann eine Spinne ihn ausschaltet und dann Homura ihn hinter sich herzieht. Diese Art von Humor ist einfach göttlich.

Die Reihe kann ich wirklich sehr empfehlen. Nicht nur die Charaktere, sondern auch das Setting sind unfassbar gut.

Started reading this series a few months ago and wanted to share my thoughts on the first fourteen volumes now. The series is very much a "sci-fi Fairy Tail" with a lot of similar character designs and even some similar plot beats in story structure, like the female lead getting kidnapped in an arc.

I can't say if it's better or worse, but it does feel about as fun. The most surprising thing is probably Valkyrie's fate as I expected the author to show her actually surviving, like how he likes to do with FT's cast. But maybe it's something that'll happen later - we'll see.

I do also enjoy the lead and his gravity powers more than Natsu's fire, and it is a relatively enjoyable read. But it doesn't wow me on the same level as HxH/OP's best arcs and doesn't make me rush back to read more. For now, I'll pause this here tentatively and maybe come back when I'm in a stronger mood to do so. But I'd say the series is okay and a sort of "turn your brain off and enjoy the ride" kind of series so far, which isn't bad since that's the main intention.

So we get the first fights for the Aoi Cosmos saga as we get to see a look at Poseidon Nero's forces and even other hints to other people that will become main threats like Nero's son. We also learn more about the Eden Zero's past as we learn about an enemy of the 4 Shining Stars. And we get see Elsie in action for the first time. Nero's forces are not really to thrilling as they just seem kind of goofy but the build up for Nero is actually pretty good and just seeing more world building is also really cool.

Terjadi hal aneh di Planet Foresta, robot bertindak layaknya penguasa sementara manusia dijadikan peliharaan. Shiki dkk datang ke planet tersebut dan diserang oleh para robot yang menggila.

Aku makin suka dengan interaksi Shiki dan rekan-rekannya sekarang, pertemanan mereka terasa makin kuat dan punya arti yang mendalam.

Baca Edens Zero ini satu volume berasa kurang mengigit sebenarnya, mungkin nanti aku bakal nimbun banyak volume untuk dibaca sekaligus biar nggak kerasa nanggung.

4/5 This volume is almost completely battle volume as Shiki, Rebecca, and Homura take on Nero’s 6th beast squad. Meanwhile up in space the shining four, Weisz, and the rests contend with a satellite ran by Ziggy that’s make the bots on planet Foresta “Kill All Humans”. We also get a look at another gravity user Nero’s son Shura who is definitely evil. Then we are readying for an encounter between Justice and Elsie.

This volume was a bit less clear and interesting than its predecessors, but I'm reminded of the saying, "A bad day of golf is better than a good day at work."

Another fave cover! Seeing Elsie transform and use Grand Chariot! Shudda up! I will always ship these two no matter what universe they belong to here or Fairy Tail!
