Wow almost still a lot of raw ch.
http://www.frozensynapse.com/
ak only do mangas worthy of their translation
Not really fond of the scanlator page at the end asking for donations and posting rl pics (Not sure if it's from someone in staff doing fanservice or just random google results...)
But, I got intrigued, interesting story, and I now want to read more, loving the 'Japanese guy in foreign place trying to learn the language' more than the 'Enders Game' vibe, though
Enders game style twist is so obvious. Still awesome to read though.
hoorah, kill those blips
And pretty damn funny, when you think about it. $100/hr to not do her job.
Looking forward to seeing where this goes.
Me too, all those "Treat it like a test", "Be careful", "Give it your all" reminds me of Ender games
Everytime I read /ak/ scanlation's work, I have this urge to send them money. Must have been the guns.
He really really sucks at smiling...
I just assume its someone wearing ear things or whom had plastic surgery
I have a feelings that he's operating with real human life in balance...
The series is rather interesting... but I REALLY want to know why nobody explains where the elf came from!
It's a fiction, lots of stuff don't even makes sense in this manga compared to the real world.. let alone those brown lolis..
And few japanese ever involved in this pmc stuff.. unfortunately one of them is captured for ransom few months ago by ISIS which broadcasted worldwide
Though the guy turned out to be a self-styled one-man operation pmc
The simulation game that MC plays actually looks quite interesting. Are there any actual games like that?
I believe you're correct. The Author/Artist might have been inspired by Ender's Game thus the manga has a similar feeling. I wonder if at this stage they're actually in command of these units or if it will appear in later chapters. Learning English might be the key to mystery as he might be talking to the units themselves in the future. Should be worth a follow.
Yep, Reading this(esp Chap 2 and 3) reminded me of the story called Ender's Game. Playing and tactical planning in the consoles unaware that...well, just read the book or watch the film to know the rest.
The filler is proportional so far, made me intrgued more.
chp 3 is out, oh well, not here yet,
and those some face of our MC got in last page
sorry to say this but the face is creepy
so with that i'm good for more chapter in near future
For anyone interested in LN http://neettranslations.wordpress.com/
By the way it seems it takes place around year 2022-2023
(check passport issue date in vol 2 character sheet in LN)

Based on the snippet leading the first chapter, I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being as much "fantasy" as "military" in tone, despite the setting and trappings.
Still, regardless of destination, good psychological mind-messing so far. And major props to the author for convincingly penning an utterly banal sequence of events leading to an utterly normal NEET signing up with a PMC.
Re-read first chapter, they even made joke about that in it.
Or just bad writing on the mangakas part
No one is going to comment on the fact that he memorized everything she said and later wrote it down phonetically back in camp?
This is impressive as is for something that took part hours before.
Even MORE so because of his emotional status at the time, the events that happened IMMEDIATELY after she said it, and the fact that he had other thoughts present at his foremind after the aforementioned events.
This guy might be a freaking genius. (Or photographic memory)
