4.25

First of all, I am not a regular manga reader. I chose this manga because I enjoy sci-fi about space, so it was very much up my alley. 
From the drawing and the amount of what is happening per page, it was not too overwhelming for me, but a step up from the very easy "nothing happens" manga that I read previously.
The first 2 chapters were incredible, the characters and some of their story were showcased in a delicate and emotional, but not too emotional way, which I enjoyed a lot.
The latter chapters were still very nice, but didn't hit me as much as the first 2 chapters. So, as a whole, I give 4.25 stars.
