Mezametara Saikyou Soubi to Uchuusen-mochi datta node, Ikkodate Mezashite Youhei to shite Jiyuu ni Ikitai - Ch. 56.2

[MadScientist666]

As a fellow LN reader,
Hiro went through a transformation into super saiyan-sith mode to save her. It was at that point Hiro is revealed to have attain star-destroying catastrophe. Yes, Hiro can and will destroy a star system for his woman. IDK, maybe going through a life-changing event for someone isn't romantic for some people.

Sounds like some shit Hadrian Marlowe would do as well...

 

[ARealCoolGuy]

Sounds like quite the story. Why are you telling it to us rather than the manga?

Because I'm speculating on where the story is going, so the manga has yet to have the opportunity to show such possible developments.

I was kind of implying that your speculating is going a bit too far if you invent an entire origin drama, of which there was no trace so far .

I love you captain serena!!!!

Spoiler: Spoiler

Of course. Mimi is an imperial princess. She's the grand daughter of the current emperor's (elder?) sister.

 

[OWMWO]

So the plan is to SHOT IT.
If it does not work SHOT HARDER.
If it still not breaking BRING MORE GUNS.
Keep shooting and DON'T DIE, it works TRUST ME.
Truly 10/10 tactic.

I feel like they could do repeated probes of the Mother Crystal's defenses with high speed space craft. After several attempts wouldn't they be able to come up with a plan to tackle it? The offensive part should be pretty easy to come up with, "Encirclement + Bombardment from far range while using smaller craft as a screen to occupy the interceptors" That'd at least give her some cover when presenting the plan to them.

The would be a near self ending mission, imagine you with some small fast ship, and your superior went “oi, go fight that planet”

 

[Banana_66]

Hiro describes it as looking like a sea urchin in the novel, they've made it look as described, which is nice.

Looks like they're also trying to make Mimi's next arc less abrupt than it was in the original novel too.

This adaptation is very true to the original to this point indeed

 

[Banana_66]

Good reminder, as I had forgotten that note.
She being the niece of a famous mercenary would be a good twist, the noble sees the resemblnce but as it wasn't another noble, he can't pinpoint the memory, yeah, that works.
I believe that with the ship commander and the catlady we got enough nobles near MC, is a large universe with possibly trillions of people, would make a bad worldbuilding if half the girls MC encountered were rare nobles.
Hopefully elf will not pull that out her ass later.

EDIT:
FUCK

Spoiler

Checked spoilers, they are both of nobleblood, the impossibly astronomical small chance happened because the author couldn't dodge a bad cliche.

Well think about it things happening to our Hero are all astronomical chances, things can go really bad if he hadn’t just happened to be in the right time and place, can’t elaborate more

Secretary-chan, please show up more often. You're probably going to disappear off the face of the narrative after this arc ends, so show up more.

The author

Spoiler

Actually has a good explanation for this, hiro is actually more or less a reality warper, which he finds out later on, basically all these strange encounters with nobles and women of rare and perfect characteristics for his crew is him actually more or less effecting causality unconsciously, hiro is more or less a insanely powerful, undiagnosed psychic (uncommon in the grakken empire, but less so in the empire the character explaining his abilities comes from), when hiro finds out that all the bad stuff that led the girls to him was basically him unconsciously willing it to happen, it goes about as well as you'd think for his mental state, said character's main goal in the plot is to teach him how to get it under control and use it more precisely instead of randomly unawares like he had been up to that point.

Spoiler

It's not just Hiro, some of the girls have powers as well.

 

[Snuffy.Flicks]

But that's more heroic then romantic. Don't get me wrong, it was cool as hell when he beheading the guys son and then charged through the ship while turning the noble's soldier chunks of flesh and so much pink mist in a berzerk rage, but I wouldn't call that romantic... especially when Serina was of only secondary concern.

Spoiler

I dunno, once Kugi mind-fucked the captors on her end, and told Hiro where Serina was, he did make a bee-line to her, by remodeling the ship. He did carve up the inside of a battleship to get to her.

So I'm guessing Mimi is the daughter of that bearded dude? He recognised her, because he recognised her mother.

Nope!
As a book-reader...

She bears a striking resemblence to another more famous imperial citizen. They're starting to pick up the dangling plot thread of her mysterious grandmother, and some mild chaos ensues.

 

[fumokaze]

As midly unreliable as information from a mercenary can be, he will be at the fight too, he would not throw himself into a fight just to die. That said, hearing "yeah, we have a chance to end all kill all" is probably reassuring as fuck

In LN and WN its a reliable dude

all true, but it was more because she was a friend rather then a love intrest. which became even more apparent when he was so reluctant to use the D to administer the "cure"

I have no idea why, and pondered this same thing a couple chapters ago, why genderchange Lt Robertson.

At least now the Dwaven Drinking Parties are gonna be more epic.
