Feels a bit cliched, and also very Moebius and Miyazaki inspired. To the point where it feels like it was made 20-30 years ago. My only significant gripe is that the art can be hard to follow with its lack of contrast and motion, as is often the case with mecha manga. But it’s still fascinating from a story and world building perspective. I’m looking forward to reading more.

Very intriguing worldbuilding.

Shame that works like these seem to get little interest.

interesting setting but feels a bit too similar to nausicaa with the bugs, poison atmosphere and protective suits underground caverns and especially the pretty female main character.

But the bigger issue is that the art is very unclear when it's attempting to show what's going on with the mecha
Also, the author didn't manage to do much with his 78 page chapter. it felt like he spent half the chapter on the main character fighting the mecha which doesn't seem like a very good way to use your pages.
It's intriguing enough to continue with but I don't think it's going to turn out to be great.

these were basically my exact thoughts. If the art was more competent at showing what's going on it wouldn't matter that it was copying miyazaki , it would still be very pleasant. Hopefully the similarities end here
