Ah yes, the one with the hormones. It was inevitable. As this series passes the midpoint, the formula is starting to become a bit stale (new planet, goes wrong, character revelation, repeat), but I’m still invested enough to see it through. Hopefully things pick back up in the next two volumes.

I really enjoyed this one, the scenes were much heavier and the art made the drama perfect. Though i gotta say, Luca, though they have a great scene during this, is kind of a pervert and feels like its played for laughs simply because of that twist in the scene. Even with that, though, I'm having a blast! Looks like I'm binging the rest of the series :)

This volume felt emotionally heavier than the previous ones, with the crew unearthing more secrets about themselves, their families, and what exactly brought them all together.

I like how each volume focuses on 1 to 2 characters and their backstories, while still peppering in cheesy humor, new exotic locations, and fast-paced action. Can't wait to read the next one!

Not as science-fictiony as the previous volumes, but still going strong with tons of interesting character developments.

I believe that I do understand the Japanese context but (if I recall correctly) all of these characters are underage and all of the fan-service feels really uncomfortable. I think the big scene with Luca (not to spoil anything) was delivered quite well but otherwise he is just seemingly really perverted person and the only reason for it, seems to be the plot twist, which I have mixed feelings about. AAAAAHHH, my feelings about this whole series are soooo mixed!!!

This is the first volume that inserts some pretty real tension into the events in the story. Without spoilers it's tied to some reveals and, of course a character's backstory.

This moment is pretty dramatic and works well, though it veers dangerously close to being problematic. That said, I think it veers back into acceptable and even embracing some of the qualities brought forth in the arc.
