A mountain of booty!!
left vert: Is space food delicious? Find out in 3 pages!

p2
So this is today's allotment of food

p3
Today's dinner and tomorrow's breakfast and lunch
Three meals overall, I think

p4
sfx: growl~~~

p5
Let's just eat now
I'm so hungry I could die

p6
Yes, let's eat

2
p1
Let's save some food

p2
Eh!?
Why is that, Makime?

p3
For us, something like today's assignment was no big deal
But we don't know how many assignments with uncertain result might be coming our way after this

p4
I see
It's insurance just in case

3
p1
I'd like to preserve a minimum of one day's worth of food
That sounds right

p2
p1
...So, how are we going to do it?
Skip a meal somewhere?

p2
No, let's not skip an entire meal
//There might be assignments that require physical strength
Besides, it's too much of a burden to secure what we need in one go
//I think we should save a little from every meal, and in about five days we'll have one day's worth in reserve

p3
Yeah
Sounds good

p4
You have no objections either, right!!?

p5
We don't
We got it

4
p1

p2
So this is the kind of food they eat in space for real
It's delicious!!

p3
Good food reduces stress, so it gives you more strength

p4
But since this is space food
The flavoring is on the strong side

p5
Heh~~~
They strengthen the flavor is space

p6
Why, Yuuto
You didn't know something like that?

p7
...Actually

5
p1
Why are you eating like that?
Hmm!?

p2
We all got trays, didn't we?

p3
Well, since this is real space food
I thought it would feel more real if I ate it the same way you’d eat it in space

p4
Even if this is simple training, as long as it's spaceship habitation training
It's more fun to think of it as if we're really in space

p5
...In that case
sfx: Beep

6
p1

p2
Ah!!
Outside the window turned into space!!

p3
Since this facility is a spaceship simulator, it seems that you can change the scenery outside to outer space
I just looked it up

p4
Should I turn it back...?

7
p1

p2
Awesome...

p3
Shibata-kun, is this image real!?

p4
It's only a saved image
But it's the same as what you'd see from a real spaceship

p5
Both above and below, everything...

8
p1
Everything is covered with stars!
So this is space!!

p2/3

p4
He~~~ey, Yuuto, how long are you going to be staring!?
Just like a child

p5
...Speaking of that, when I was little I was just like that

9
p1
Really
That's unexpected

p2
When I was little, I was taken on a space trip for the first time

p3
Space is huge, and there are many so unknown parts there
So I thought I wanted to see everything to the ends of space

p4
So that's why you got into the space academy
Yes

p5
The ends of space... That's cool!!
Thank you very much

p6
Then you're just like me!!

10
p1
I got into the space academy so I could join Sirius...
And make spaceships... Marvelous deep space spaceships!!

p2
If you want to make spaceships, shouldn't you have applied for space construction?
Why did you get in the Astronaut Department?

p3
...Certainly
If I only wanted to make the ships, the Construction Department is a good choice

p4
But the spaceship designer that I admire the most once said

11
p1
"Don't make something that you wouldn't get into and drive!!"

p2
I see
So you want to be in Sirius to make deep space spaceships

p3
Right!!
So, I will make the spaceship that you'll go to the ends of space in, Shibata! Just look forward to it and wait!!

p4
Yes
I'll wait without looking forward to it

p5
What!! This is where you're supposed to say that you're looking forward to it!!
I'll wait, but I won't hold my breath

p6
What about you, Kasugai?

12
p1
Why did you come to the space academy?

p2
...Actually, I know
You just want the status of someone in Sirius, right?

p3
Right
Sorry, I don't have an extravagant dream like you guys

p4
Kaaa~~~ah! You just spoiled the mood~~~!
Don't you have any other dreams!?

p5
...
//I don't
I thought so

p6
Anyway, we're still in the middle of training now
We need to consider how we'll be dealing with the assignments starting tomorrow

13
p1
Eh~~~ Let's take it easy for the rest of today
So you're fine if we don't get tomorrow's meal!?
No way

p2

p3
nb: Gaku, who was so angry with Kasugai-san
But of what use is it to think about that stuff now?
nb: Now he's talking to her normally

p4
nb: Is this the spirit of cooperation...?
It's better than doing nothing!!
Eh~~~ We'll be alright
nb: The indispensable quality for an astronaut...

p5
Yeah, anyway, I'll go to take a shower first!!
Wa- Wait a minute, it's ladies first on such occasions!!

p1/2

p3
Today's assignment...
All teams cleared it... but

p4
Group 1 got over it dictatorially, with their individual abilities

p5
...On the other hand
Group 7 was the only one to clear with everyone in a relaxed mood

p6
Even though the other members went along with it
The one who made it happen was...

15
p1
Subaru Yuuto!!

p2
This kid, whose grades aren't that spectacular
Just what is it that he has...?

p3
What's up? Are you still brooding over it!?
?
//Well, if I said I wasn't I'd be lying

p4
Just what is it that you all see in this kid...?

16
p1
And how come today
Groups 7, out of all seven teams, was the second fastest to clear this assignment?

p2
They certainly were quick

p3
Especially because of this boy's proposal
They were able to switch over and their tempo improved

p4
If you ask what we see in him
Personally, I consider if I can rely on a person or not

p5
A day might come when we would have to carry out a dangerous mission together
I don't want someone I can't rely on!!

17
p1
Just make sure you don't fall for marriage fraud
Excuse me!! My eye for people is good!!!

p2
But
//This is why we evaluate them like this
It's always been this way

p3
The ones who select astronauts are
Other astronauts!!

p4
What data or statistics won't tell you
You can discern with your own eyes!

p5
Is that what they call the "right stuff"!?
Then I want you to show it to me

18
p1
The right stuff for an astronaut...
Fugah

p2

p3
Good morning, ASCANs
Good morning

19
p1
I'm going to explain today's assignment

p2
Today's assignment is to make a model
//Please assemble a model spaceship out of approximately 50 parts
A spaceship model!!
50 parts are a piece of cake!!

p3
First, bring the No. 1 box here and spread the parts in it on the table
Yeah! I'll go get it!!
Calm down

p4
Here it is

p5
Torya!!

p6
Eh!?

20
p1
There are more than 1000 parts here!!
Pick only the correct parts from among them, and put them together!!

p2
How are we supposed to find the right ones from this many parts!?
This assignment is a super difficult three-dimensional puzzle!!
