"Koko wa Makasete Saki ni Ike!" o Shitai Shinitagari no Nozomanu Uchuu Gekokujou @COMIC - Ch. 16

[MangaFreak6]

That was a good binge read.

 

[welcome2atlantis]

That was a fun ride. I hope there'll be more of this.

 

[DrarRV]

Where is the seggs or atleast some ecchi?

 

[loonacrunch]

Is that the king? Or the king's brother?

 

[sassinos]

Thanks for continue this series.

So.... MC not going plan suicide again? 😂😂😂

If anything, I think the temptation has only grown for him. It's not just his subordinates now, but also a princess he can sacrifice his life for so he can have a heroic death.

Thanks for the translation. I'm enjoying the series, even though MC pulls through by sheer bullshit luck. Though that's a good balance for someone suicidal.

 

[gasnomercante]

Yep, we playing Starsector again.

 

[Elfteiroh]

Oh lol… I was kinda right, but had the wrong order.
She won’t be joining because of the luxury, it’s actually that the luxury was a lucky event BECAUSE the Princess was planning to ride that ship anyway. XD

He accidentally made a ship worthy of the Princess, without knowing that the Princess wanted to personally use it. XD

 

[ShiitakeCat]

Thanks for the batch TL!

Looking into the ranks a bit more; the translation made things kinda confusing. This is what I gathered from checking the RAWs:

In chapter 2, page 12, Nao is addressed as a 宇宙軍准尉 (uchuu gun jun'i) and gets promoted to 少尉 (shoui). So he starts out as a warrant officer (not ensign) of the space army and gets promoted to second lieutenant.

In chapter 8, page 28/29, Merika was addressed as メーリカ准尉殿 (Merika jun'i-dono). So as a warrant officer, not a rear admiral. And since she was addressed that way on both pages, that's assuming she was a warrant officer before she got her promotion by one rank.

Our bro Mark was similarly mentioned to be a rear admiral in chapter 10, page 1, but was also referred to as a 准尉 (jun'i), so he's also a warrant officer.

I think this resolves all the weird inconsistencies. Basically after the officer academy the students all get the rank warrant officer. Nao was probably immediately promoted to second lieutenant at the space army (and not just seconded to the coast guard in that capacity), which is why he retained that rank after returning (?). And now he's promoted to 中尉 (chuui), or (first) lieutenant.

This helps, although still curious how the translator managed to mistake both Merika and Mark as "Admirals" at times.

No you're looking at this backwards. He wanted to suicide while saving his associates. It became even better for him once he was in a position to save his subordinates. Now, he has even more subordinates to save, plus a princess. Suicide couldn't be more at the top of his priorities now!

Thank you so much for the Translation boursk 😍

That Manga is such a great read.

 

[HDMI1]

The Space Playa himself has appeared!

 

[sketches]

The new recruits have been off screen for awhile now. I wonder when they will reappear.

 

[Lichon]

Thanks to boursk for clearing up, at least some, of the odd rank translation.
However I am still confused about the "seconded" and "secondment" parts. How is a military personel transfer order "seconded" ?

 

[Chaos_Breaker]

Bet that dude is king or relative to royal family kek

He's just an uncle from her mother's side
