Thanks for the translation! It’s still kinda hard to tell what’s happening on a given panel just by the nature of it being an alien mecha manga, but I’m looking forwards to see where the plot goes. I see it already has three volumes out, so we have at least another few chapters available.

If anything, chapter 3 is the clearest of all of them in my view, but I did have to spend several minutes squinting at the section where the landlady has the chestburster insect explode out of her because I couldn't work out what the hell was supposed to be happening (I thought it was exploding out of one of the Church officials, given that they'd already had insects pour out of their arm). It's also why I've started translating more of the sound effects than I was before, as that's been helping me follow through so many pages of gorgeous, wordless art.

The closing pages of the volumes are full of design notes on the mecha and characters, but the mangaka is clearly over-excited about the whole thing as the volume 1 notes are filled with stuff about characters that do not appear in volume 1...

just confirming I have now fixed this, so you can see YEEG THE COLOSSUS in all his bulbous glory from page 7 of volume 2. Apologies for the sloppiness!

The writing of the bad guy is pretty forced and over the top. It feels like the author wanted to make give the bad guy some unique , villainous dialogue but didn't have any good ideas.
