"thx for the work
it's just that the story is shit : it's even more jingoistic and wish-fulfilling than Gate, and only the light-sided humor saved it.
none of it here.
and don't get me started on its "realism"
Wish-fulfillment is what comics are all about. You do realize that this is just a comic, right? You do realize that Japan, as a culture and society, tends to be conservative and nationalistic, right?
The realism of the JSDF equipment and their deployment is quite spot on. The mangaka did their research and only drew the vehicles and weapons the JSDF currently uses. Same goes for Gate. Is the situation contrived? Sure. But that's the suspension of belief any comic or manga requires of it's audience.
