Il capitano Shin dello squadrone Spearhead, a cui è stata affidata la difesa del punto più delicato del fronte. E Lena, che da lontano dirige quella squadra. Con la morte di Kaie, la giovane ufficiale scopre i veri sentimenti - che i colorata e gli Eighty-Six nutrono per gli alba, rendendosi conto di tutta la propria ignoranza. Ma il tempo non si ferma e, durante un nuovo assalto delle Legion, tra le loro grida di sofferenza si sente anche una fievole voce: somiglia a quella di Kaie, che però è caduta in battaglia...
The art was really good! And enjoyed the story. Shame this isn't going to be continued. I heard the artist had some health issues. I might check out the anime and hope it actually covers enough of the whole story that I get some sort of resolution. Either that or I'm going to have to try the light novels.
I heard this Manga's serialization stopped due to the poor health of the artist, which is a shame in two ways - one being that the art is still absolutely gorgeous, and second, in that this volume introduced so many new plot elements that left me wanting more. I sincerely hope that somehow they find a way to continue this Manga as its absolutely amazing.
This is a much heavier manga than I first expected. It takes seriously many aspects of war and inter-racial relations than most discussions in general, let alone manga. I really look forward to seeing how this story plays out.
Edit: Oh no, I see that the series was cancelled due to the artist's health. I'll definitely grab the light novel series then.
I am enjoying this series well enough. I wouldn't say I'm totally sucked in just yet, but I find Shin to be the most interesting character/background so I've went ahead and ordered the next 3 volumes. I think there is a lot of potential with where the story world building can go.
