441 STAR CHILDREN Volume 1 on sale to favorable reception!! nb: Two years since that accident... The time of another departure is now---. ---March 2081 ...As you know, gentlemen, the revival of the Jupitneer project, as well as a plan for the search & rescue of the previous Jupitneer was announced the other day Humanity once again enters the time when we will separate from Mother Earth's umbilical cord, the space elevator, and leave our nest for the vastness of space I would like to congratulate you, who will bear the new era on their shoulders--- #15 Someday, Reach the Stars Kida Masashi
442 p1 183 ASCANs I now designate you astronauts of CORE Inc!!
p2/3/4/5
443 p1/2
p3 Yuuto!!
p4 That's where you are. We were looking for you!!
p5 See you
p6
444 p1 Were you talking about something with Minorikawa? Yeah, just stuff
p2 Ah, that's right!!
p3 You and Minorikawa were accepted into Mars exploration training!! You got the same treatment as the guys from class A!!
p4 How nice~~~ I wish I could go too~~~!!
p5
445 p1 What about you guys!?
p2 The three of us have been admitted to Cosmic University on the Moon
p3 I'm enrolling in the spaceship department, I want to learn a bit more about spaceships
p4 I'll be studying space biology And I'll major in space medicine
p5 You guys are awesome, you know where you want to go What, are you being sarcastic!? Even though you're the most successful one of us!!
p6 Well, but the final goal is Sirius
p7
446 p1 You probably have doubts About going to Mars
p2 !!
p3 Doubts? Doubts... About taking that Mars training!?
p4 Eh!? Yuuto, you have doubts!? There's no way, right?
p5 Err... Well, it's like...
p6 How come!? After you're finally treated like class A!!
447 p1 Are you going to mess up your shortest route toward Sirius!?
p2
p3 You want to try and take it, don't you? The Sirius exam
p4 You mean the Sirius exam they'll be giving soon? Because they want to increase the number of Sirius members in accordance with the Jupitneer plan...?
p5 E- Even then, you wouldn't take it right now if it means throwing away your chance, right!!? You can go to Mars training, achieve real results in proper order, and then, in about five years...
p6 ...But In that case...
p7 Hey hey hey hey!!
448 p1 I hear someone talking about Sirius in a place like this, and who does it turn out to be? Isn't that the drop-out group!!?
p2 Kaburagi...
p3 Did you get fatter? It just looks that way in weightlessness!
p4 Hey, Subaru Yuuto!!
p5 Don't get carried away just because you've been accepted to the same Mars training as us class A graduates!! It's only because some Canopus people like you a bit, that's all!!
449 p1 And you, of all people, would refuse that favorable treatment? Who do you think you are!!?
p2 You're going to take the Sirius exam on top of that!? That exam is a barrier that even for Canopus astronauts, only one out of a hundred passes!!
p3 For us... I mean, for someone like you, coming up from class B, it's not something you could possibly pass!! Don't mess around!!
p4 Y- You don't have to go that far!!
p5 Yeah yeah, break~~~
p6 Thank you for the warning, Kaburagi-kun Huh!?
p7 ...But you know
450 p1 He's just an idiot who still has doubts even though he knows all of this, so we should just leave him alone !!
p2 Wh- What do you mean, I'm an idiot!!?
p3 Hmm, well, if that's the case... Yeah Ehhh!?
p4 Still, going out of your way to deliver the warning Surprisingly, you're a good person, Kaburagi-kun
p3 If you're in doubt, you should seek someone's advice ...For example
p4 The one in charge of the Sirius exam
p5 Thank you, Makime-kun!!
p6
p7 Why did you give advice to Subaru!?
452 p1 I just thought the less burden we have during Mars training, the better
p2 ...
p3 Well, I guess we should leave it at that
p4 ...So
p5 Who's in charge of the Sirius exam?
p6 Ah, yes That's...
p7 The Jupitneer project leader //The head of the CORE Inc Astronaut Department
453 p1 Subaru Daichi
p2 sfx: knock x2
p3 Come in Excuse me!!
454 p1
p2 What’s your business!?
p3 Ah, yes, err...
p4 If you don't have anything, leave!! I don't have the time to be worrying about you alone
p5 ...Me alone
p6 Dad!! I have something I want to ask dad!!
455 p1
p2 Yuuto, starting today you're another astronaut!! And I'm your superior!! //Be careful about how you address me at work!!
p3 I know!! But right now I came as a son to ask a question from his father, an astronaut Subaru Daichi!!
p4 Since you're busy, I think it would be a waste of time to ask the same question again in a different place
p5 ... At least you've gotten proficient when it comes to talking
p6 ...So What did you want to ask!?
456 p1 Should I go to the three year Mars training? Or should I decline it and take the Sirius exam?
p2 And you want me to tell you what to do?
p3 No, that's not what I mean...
p4 Do you know what kind of a thing is the Sirius exam?
p5 I know that if someone like me takes it, it's not something they could pass ...But
p6 You want to be a part of the Jupitneer search & rescue project!! !!
457 p1 I can easily imagine what you're thinking
p2 The rescue party will not necessarily be safe either
p3 I've realized how scary space is
p4 As well as that there are people who will come and save you
p5 The probability that the Juptineer is alright is low
p6 I know But if it's not 0%, I want to go out to the rescue
458 p1 Because in space, the possibilities are limitless!!
p2
p3 So you've decided? Eh!?
p4 In most cases, such doubts mean that you already have the answer What's left is whether you have the resolve to make the decision
p5 What did your mother tell you When you said you'd become an ASCAN?
459 p1 Since you decided this yourself, from now on it's all your responsibility Get ready for it!!
p2 I see
p3 Dad I...
p4/5/6
460 p1/2
p3 The feelings will reach there. Across time, across space---
Thank you very much for reading! Please expect the next work from Kida-sensei!! --The final Volume 2 will go on sale on May 17 (Thu)--https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/33971[English] [Translation] Star Children 14 by cmertb2012-03-28T15:03:58+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comReserved for Pinoy Manga
1 p1 nb: The moment shuttle No. 1 is fired upon fast approaches... Volume 1 now on sale to good reception!! STAR CHILDREN #14 Pleiades Kida Masashi
p2 Shuttle No. 1 has 40 ASCANs, one instructor, and one pilot In addition, the three who headed out to the rescue: Shitara, Subaru, Minorikawa...
p3 Are we supposed to fire on 45 human beings...?
p4
p5 Jigami!! No. 2 is...!
2 p1 Going to rendezvous with No. 1!! What!?
p2 No. 1 is still flying erratically, a rendezvous is...
p3 It seems No. 1 has already switched to inertial flight !!
p4 So they want to be rescued by No. 2...
p5 But they won't be able to make it before we fire!! Who gave such an order!?
p6 Both Shitara and Dangouzaka are level-headed men An idiotic instruction like that... //!!
3 p1 Were they moved by that brat Subaru?
p2 It seems so !!
p3 Director Subaru!!
p4
4 p1 Bring the laser's focus closer Also reduce its diameter even further!!
p2 Then the timing will truly be cut close And if we make the beam narrower, the aim will get more difficult!!
p3 The ones in the shuttles are also timing their rescue very close If that's the case, we have to respond to that!!
p4
p5 Hmph!
5 p1 So it was idiocy inherited from his father
p2 What? ...Nothing
p3 If that's your order, we'll do it!! Please do!!
p4/5/6
6 p1/2/3/4
p5 Subaru, Minorikawa, connect the wires Roger
p6/7
7 p1/2
p3 Connection completed
p4 Per plan, I'll be going to No. 2 first, and direct the retrieval First send out the ASCANs, and then Dangouzaka and the pilot will be last
p5/6
8 p1 Listen up! Just like Instructor Shitara just now Attach your tether to the guide wire and go!!
p2/3
p4 Huuuh... I'm not very good at EVA Now's not the time to be saying that!!
p5/6/7
9 p1 Yuuto!! Gaku!!
p2 Sheesh, you scared me... But you came to save us!! Of course!!
p3 Hey, hurry up and go, the next person is coming!! Uh, yeah
p4 You too, Minorikawa, thank you!!
p5 Hmph!
p6
p7 Alright, everyone's gone!! Just the two of us left now!!
10 p1
p2 ...Gulp
p3 What are you getting scared of, even the ASCANs did it!! No time left, let's go!! Y- Yes!!
p4/5
p6 ...Ho!
p7
11 p1 The last two have arrived safely!! All OK!!
p2 Th- There's no time!! I'm going full reverse!! Everyone, grab on to something!!
p3 Eh!... Uh
p4 !! //Please wait!! There's still...
p5/6/7/8
12 p1
p2 Hey!!
p3/4/5/6/7
13 p1 Turn back the ship!! It's impossible now!!
p2 Tch...! In order to return the pilot here to No. 2 Subaru himself went flying toward No. 1...
p3 Yuuto!!
p4/5
14-15
16 p1
p2 Phew
p3 Somehow, we managed to fulfill your request Director Subaru
p4
p5 The radar is back!!
p6 What about Yuuto!?
p7 ...
17 p1 We have a response!! !!
p2 He's flying pretty far on the opposite side of where No. 1 was, but he's safe!! H- He's alive
p3 I see... He used all of his propellant not to return to the shuttle, but instead to fly as far as possible...
p4 So that means he's adrift now!? Then we have to go rescue him!!
p5 Uh, please wait...
18 p1
p2 Looks like I've flown far... I won't see the station either
p3 At this rate, if they don't find me... No, my oxygen will run out before then...
p4 Death
p5 You're in a dangerous place, Yuuto It's the world of death where humans can't survive
19 p1 Shut up I know, Kousei!!
p2 ...But Is this what Kousei might be facing now...?
p3
p4 That's right!! Even I, at a place like this, still...
20 p1 Subaru Yuuto! !! Are you conscious!? Respond!!
p2 Y- Yes!! I'm conscious
p3/4
p5 I won't give up!! Remembered in the world of death, the promise made on that day. What does Yuuto feel now as space touches him, as he gets to know it---? Next issue, the moving final chapter!!https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/33966[English] [Translation] Star Children 13 by cmertb2012-03-27T15:11:51+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comreserved for pinoy
1 p1 box: story so far... An idea? nb: You can't even rescue an out-of-control ship! Volume 1 on sale to rave reviews!! STAR CHILDREN Kida Masashi #13 ASCAN
p2/3
p4 Right now, No. 1 is out of control and we don't know how it's going to move In that case...
2 p1 Can't we take the propulsion system offline!?
p2 If we kill the system, the ship will just keep going inertially The rescue squad will be able to rendezvous with it soon and commence rescue operations
p3 ...I see //We were too concerned about being abandoned by the HQ, and kept thinking about bringing the system back up
p4 The chances of restoring the system are 50-50 Being able to take it offline is guaranteed
p5 Alright!! Shitara, in that case...
3 p1 No... We can't do either !!
p2 Kasugai-san, what do you mean!?
p3 I've calculated No. 1's predicted orbit following its collision with the debris
p4 At this rate, the course of No. 1 and the GEO station will intersect...
4 p1 The probability of collision is high!!
p2
p3 What do you mean!? The probability of a collision has to be minimal...
p4 I think that a part of the program responsible for bringing the shuttle back to the station is alive The No. 1's irregular movements don't deviate from that predetermined vector
p5 What's the probability of a collision!?
5 p1 99.42%
p2 Oh no... It's almost 100%...
p3 Certainly, there were no jets fired that would modify the orbit significantly...
p4 How about we cut over to inertial flight when the current bearing slips even a little!?
p5 Even if it's a small deviation initially, the further the shuttle continues on that course, the bigger it'll get
6 p1 That's not possible either
p2 The interval between the firings of No. 1's thrusters isn't constant, and the firing duration is short as well
p3 Before we get the results of a calculation whether the modified course results in collision or not The course will change yet again due to another firing of the thrusters
p4 If the inertial flight takes it on the collision course, rescue will be hopeless
p5 Shitara, I understand our situation Dangouzaka
p6 If this is the case, the HQ might activate the debris special measures
p7
8 p1 Geez, as soon as you came back so suddenly I realized that the situation has gotten pretty bad
p2 It's not something to laugh about, Jigami!!
p3 We got an order to fire!!
p4 Wha...!
p5
8 p1 Based on the Debris Special Measures Act, Shuttle No. 1 is to be shot down!!
p2/3/4
p5 Anti-Debris Laser, huh...
9 p1 Dangouzaka, don't tell this to the ASCANs yet...
p2 There's no way I can tell them
p3 Kasugai, what's the HQ saying?
p4 If the system can't be brought online, switch over to inertial flight within the next 10 hours... ...But in that case, a collision is almost certain
p5 It's practically impossible to restore the system in 10 hours So they intend to make ADL's aim even more accurate by putting the shuttle in inertial flight...
p6 What do we do!? Do we bet on restoring the system until the last moment before the collision, even if it means ignoring our orders...?
10 p1 Please let us take the system down right now!!
p2
p3 What are you saying, Yuuto!? Then they'll run into the station for sure!!
p4 But at this rate they'll be shot by the laser!! !!
11 p1 Wh- What are you talking about, Subaru!!? That's something...
p2 I just remembered what Kousei told me in the past!! That main stations are equipped with lasers to intercept meteors or debris!!
p3 "If you can't restore the system, switch to inertial flight", isn't that To make their aim even easier!?
p4 Is that true!?
p5 ...
p6 There are still people in No. 1... Even we are here!! Are they still going to fire!?
12 p1 They are!!
p2 If there's a collision with the station, the damage will be far greater! It's obvious for them to keep damage to the minimum by firing
p3 ...
p4 Then what about the rescue squad...? When will they be here!?
p5 The rescue squad will make it to No. 1 after the estimated time of collision They won't be in time
p6 That's why
13 p1 We have to put No. 1 in inertial flight right now And carry out the rescue with our No. 2!!
p2
p3 If we rendezvous with No. 2 right now and begin rescue, we don't know if we'll make it in time before the collision But if we want to to avoid being shot with the laser, we need to finish the rescue even earlier
p4 If we don't...
14 p1 No. 2 will be blasted together with No. 1
p2 We can't get No.2’s ASCANs involved
p3 ...True True, but //...But
15 p1 Once again... watching without being able to do anything This time right in front of me...
p2/3/4/5/6
16 p1 Please wait, Instructor Shitara!! Don't decide without listening to our opinion first
p2 All ASCANs in No. 2 Are in agreement that we should rescue No. 1!!
17 p1 Wha...! //Y... You can't!! It's too dangerous!!
p2 We know it's dangerous!! We want to become astronauts, after all!!
p3 We are the guys who still want to be astronauts even after we saw the Jupitneer accident!!
p4 The ones in No. 1 are all our friends We can't leave them alone!!
p5 Moreover, we too wanted to go out to rescue No. 1 just before!! We held back only because we admit that Subaru and Minorikawa's EVA skills are the best
18 p1 But now it's our turn to risk our lives for the rescue mission!!
p2 ...Everyone
p3 B- But...
p4 We're going even if you try to stop us After all, Pilot-san is the one most eager to go
p5
19 p1 ...
p2 Dangouzaka, No. 2 is going to do something unreasonable!! Explain to the ASCANs in No. 1...
p3 Already on it!!
p4 It's too difficult to get the system restored within 10 hours
p5 Besides, we're the ones being rescued We can't complain
p6
p7 ...Huuuh //This won't get settled with a letter of apology
20 p1 To the crew of No. 2!!
p2/3 In order for everyone to return safely //Head out to rescue No. 1!!
p4 Roger!!
right: Rescue with lives at stake. The ASCANs have banded to together, but will their feelings bear fruit...?https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/33828[English] [Translation] Star Children 12 by cmertb2012-03-15T06:16:43+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comReserved for Pinoy Manga
1 p1 The latest KC vol 1 out on sale to rave reviews!! No. 1 has lost its air! Little time remains... bubble: Looks like the door warped from the impact... STAR CHILDREN Kida Masashi #12 Rescue ②
p2 Gnnnn
p3 Tch, I can't open it... Some of the systems and the ship's control broke down due to the accident
p4 Whoa
p5 Looks like the balancer is screwed up, if a thruster fires on its own With this, it'll be too dangerous for No. 2 to approach us as well //...In that case
2 p1 In theory, No. 2 will maintain the status quo until the rescue squad arrives But in reality, the HQ will abandon us... box: {story so far}
p2 Should we restore the systems and fly back under our own power...?
p3 All or nothing, should we open the emergency hatch!? An explosive is used to send the hatch flying, so there won't be going back
p4 You might say we'll have to give up on the idea of regaining air pressure in that case
p5 But if we open it, what then!? Can I get 40 ASCANs with insufficient EVA training safely to No. 2!?
3 p1 It's like jumping from one speeding bus to another!! While one of them is running out of control on top of that!!
p2 With bad timing, you're likely to be sent flying off to nowhere
p3 Everyone, calm down and listen!!
p4 Taking into account the present situation, the air supply in our EMUs will not last until the rescue squad gets here Given the condition of our ship, we can't expect any rescue from No. 2 either
p5 Oh- Oh no... What'll happen to us!?
p6 Therefore... Instructor Dangouzaka!!
4 p1 No. 2 is drawing closer to us!! What!?
p2 Yeah!! No. 2 is coming to rescue us!!
p3 What are you planning to do, Shitara!?
p4/5
5 p1 Let's do the final recap of our mission
p2 Starting now, we will touch down on No. 1 carrying spare oxygen
p3 After we touch down, we will first attach the spare oxygen to No. 1’s exterior unit Following that, we will seal the hole in their hull, provided there aren't two or more of them
p4 After that's completed, we will start letting the air in while checking that the ship is airtight Over
6 p1 But there’s one important point to watch out for No. 1's body cannot be controlled, so we don't know how it might move
p2 Be very carefully at the moment you touch down!! When you do, tether yourself to the hull without fail!!
p3 No. 1's fate is in our hands!! But don't confuse recklessness with heroism!!
p4 Your first priority is your own safety Don't take any unreasonable actions!!
p5 You got it!? Yes!!
7 p1
p2 And so, we're off!!
p3
p4 It's a boat!! Are they coming alongside the shuttle!? If they hit No. 1, we'll both be done for!!
p5 There are three people on it. Who’s coming!? We can't know yet!!
8 p1
p2 If we get any closer, we won't be able to react to any sudden movements from No. 1 As planned, we'll leap one by one from here
p3 Minorikawa, you're first
p4/5
p6 Look, it's Minorikawa!! Why is he coming here!?
9 p1 Alright, Minorikawa made it!! Subaru, your turn!!
p2 Yes!!
p3 Here I go!!
p4 !! It's Subaru-kun
p5 Yuuto... You came too...
p6 Alright Just a little more
10 p1/2/3
p4 This timing is terrible!!
p5
p6 He'll get sent flying off at this rate!! Yuuto!!
11 p1 Ku! Like hell I'll die here!!
p2/3
p4 I can't kill my momentum!!
p5 Uwah!
12 p1/2/3
p4 Th- Thanks Minorikawa
13 p1 It's troublesome if more people end up needing rescue
p2 D- Did he make it!? It seems Minorikawa-kun saved him
p3 The instructor is sending over the oxygen tank Get ready to retrieve it Roger
p4/5/6
14 p1
p2 Good The retrieval was successful
p3/4
p5 Instructor Dangouzaka, can you hear me!? This is Shitara, over a direct line
p6 Shitara!! What are you planning to do!?
15 p1 Right now we're going to seal the hull breach And then inject spare oxygen from No. 2
p2 If we do that, your air should last until the rescue squad gets here Yeah!! We'll be saved!!
p3 Shitara... Did he manage to convince the HQ?
p4 Alright, begin!!
p5
16 p1/2/3/4
p5 Good Next, seal the hull breach
17 p1/2/3
p4 Tch!
p5
p6 It'll be a problem if more people end up needing rescue, right?
p7 Hmph I'm tethered anyway
p8
18 p1 We're done!!
p2 Yes, good job!!
p3 Dangouzaka, our work here is over!! We'll now begin injecting oxygen, please check that you're airtight!!
p4
p5 No leaks detected!!
19 p1 Good, now they can last until the rescue squad arrives
p2
p3 No... //It's still no good, Shitara What! What do you mean!?
p4 We still can't control the propulsion system
p5 Is there any possibility of restoring the system!? We've been trying all this time, but...
20 p1 At this rate, the rescue squad won't be able to rendezvous with us They won't be able to carry out rescue operations
p2/3/4
p5 Umm... I have an idea
right: One problem after another!! Can Yuuto's smarts save No. 1!?https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/33810[English] [Translation] Star Children 11 by cmertb2012-03-14T04:41:24+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comReserved for Pinoy Manga
1 p1 Tankoubon Vol 1 is out on sale to rave reviews!! STAR CHILDREN Kida Masashi #11 Rescue nb: Scramble! The space shows its fangs!! Uwooooh!! What's this smoke!?
p2 Probably a hole was ripped in the hull from the impact just now The sudden depressurization produced a fog
p3 Shibata, how can you be so calm? Am I really?
2 p1 {story so far: bla bla bla}
p2 It stopped... Probably because pressure fell to zero
p3 Everyone's EMUs are fucntioning, right!!?
p4 Instructor Dangouzaka Hmm? What?
p5/6
3 p1 Instructor Dangouzaka!! Is this shuttle alright!?
p2 It's alright. Calm down. The propulsion and communication systems are down, but there's no worry about an explosion
p3 Did the debris hit the components of those systems? So cabin pressure is secondary damage
p4 Shuttle No. 2 is close by Rescue will be here soon
p5/6
4 p1 At this rate, the guys in No. 1 will all perish!!
p2 Perish!?
p3 We're sending a signal for help to the GEO Station HQ and also reporting on the situation The rescue squad is already headed this way
p4 You can tell just by looking out the window You understand this too, don't you?
5 p1 You can see that No. 1's cargo hold has been breached and its life boats and air have been expelled At this rate, No. 1 won't have enough air until rescue arrives!
p2 I... Is this really true!? Instructor Shitara!?
p3
p4 ...Yeah It's the truth
p5 Then we have to go and save them!! Since we're the ones closest to them...
p6 You mustn't!! !
6 p1 Rescue operations are difficult and dangerous even for trained astronauts!!
p2 ...
p3 Are you going to listen to a guy like that!?
p4 What Chief Keisan says is correct
p5 Rescue operations in space are far more dangerous than those on Earth
p6 Also, the theory says that rescue is carried out in two person cells Since the pilot can't let go of the controls, it's impossible
7 p1 Then I'll go We'll have a two person cell
p2 M- Me too...!
p3 I'll go too!!
p4 You're too naive!!
p5
p6 This situation is not as simple as you think it is!!
8 p1 No. 1's propulsion system is inoperable and its bearing is unstable
p2 And we have to transport over 40 people from a ship in that state to here!!
p3 The only EVA activities you’ve been taught are retrieval and maintenance
p4 If I let babies like you engage in rescue operations The damage will only increase, as Chief Keisan said
p5 ...True, but But then...
p6 So then You're just going to abandon the guys in No. 1!?
9 p1 We're not abandoning them The rescue squad is currently headed here
p2 If you know they won't make it in time, then it's as good as abandoning them!!
p3 And still, you're... Wa-! Calm down, Minorikawa!!
p4 Shut up!!
10 p1 Guh...!
p2 Yuuto!!
p2/3
p4 Are you okay? Thanks
p5 What's going on!? For Minorikawa-kun to get so emotional... Yeah
11 p1 But I know how he feels I want to head out to save them too
p2 I'm the same But we can't rush things
p3 If we go out to rescue, we'll end up in danger instead, just like that chief said Right now, we have to think about what we can do
p4 What we can do... !!
p5 That's it!! Yuuto!?
p6 Instructor Shitara!!
12 p1 If rescue is difficult Let's at least improve the situation with No. 1
p2 Improve the situation with No. 1!?
p3 First, we'll seal the hole in No. 1's hull Then, we'll deliver spare oxygen from our shuttle
p4 In that case, even if we can't rescue them We can make their oxygen last until the rescue squad arrives
p5/6
13 p1 I told you, you mustn't!!
p2 But It's the only thing we can do now!!
p3 Even if this isn't rescue operations, the fact that you have to go to a ship that has suffered an accident is no different!! It's too late after something has already happened!!
p4 Please!!
p5/6
14 p1 Chief Keisan, I'll take responsibility for this Please let us head out to relieve No. 1!!
p2/3
p4 Don't be stupid!! This problem is not something a mid-grade Arcturus astronaut can be responsible for!!
p5 I understand... But I can't abandon my precious students!!
p6 Alright, Shitara, follow your own judgment !! Whaaat!?
15 p1 I'll take responsibility!!
p2 Jigami...
p3 Me too Even Ibusuki
p4 If a Sirius (special grade) and a Canopus (top grade) put their heads together, you won't complain, will you? Chief Keisan
p5
p6 Gh... Ggghh Brats...
16 p1 Do as you please!! I'm not responsible for what happens!!
p2
p3 Thank you very much, Chief Hmm!?
p4 Because we knew that you'd relent Even Jigami adopted a forceful attitude, I think
p5 ...Hmph I'll make all necessary preparations
p6 But let me tell you
p7 Listen up, Shitara
17 p1/2 If you're going to do it, make sure you rescue everyone!!
p3 Well, once it's over join me for a drink
p4 Eh~~~ I don't want to drink with oji-san~~ tl note: oji-san = lit. uncle, but can also refer to an older man
p5 Jigami, why are you on the GEO Station? You're not on the Moon?
p6 Class A's lunar training is over, so I was on my way back to Earth
18 p1 Director Subaru will be here shortly as well
p2 Shitara, I'm leaving the decisions at the scene to you Keep reporting on the situation!!
p3 But it's dangerous for you to go out there alone Select two from among the ASCANs and bring them for support
p4 ...In that case
p5 The two who volunteered just now are also qualified for EVA activities
p6 Those two, huh
19 p1 Listen up, kids Don't get conceited about you being chosen
p2 Even if we put the two of you together, you're still far from an adult Follow Shitara's instructions, don't act on your own
p3 Pilot, concentrate on flying Coordinate with Shitara and assume the best position
p4 The rest of the ASCANs, concentrate on observing and communicate with the HQ
p5 But don't make the information too intricate
p6 Kasugai Akari
p7 Compile the information collected and send it to the HQ I'm leaving it to the processing ability of a former class A member
20 p1 You're only buying time until rescue arrives!! Make sure you return safely!
p2 Commence Shuttle No. 1 rescue mission!!

{Less training, more action, huh}
1 p1/2 A new development this week! STAR CHILDREN The awaited tankoubon Vol 1 goes on sale on Feb 17 (Fri)!! Kida Masashi #10 EVA
p3 The one who came to the vast and endless space is...?
p4/5
2 p1 No. 3 container secured! Make sure you bring it back safely, Yuuto
p2 I know box: Core Space Academy Extravehicular Activity Training Station
p3
p4 Contact
p5/6 Make sure you secure the retrieved object firmly Yeah yeah //Kasugai-san, you've been talking a lot like a mother lately Wha...!
3 p1 H- How rude!! I'm just thinking of everyone...
p4 Give me the location of the next object for retrieval Roger //You check the propellant as well
p5 Quite a decent performance, Subaru Thank you very much, Instructor Shitara
p6 ...But Why are we doing this kind of a debris collection exercise?
4 p1 After the space elevator was completed and it became easy to get into space It became possible to systematically dispose of the debris...
p2 But it turned out to be the opposite Precisely because it became easy to get into space, this training became necessary
p3 The opposite...?
p4 Certainly, given the current ease of reaching space, the disposal of things like satellites that have outlived their span, that we couldn't do in the past Is now possible to do both systematically and safely
5 p1 However, as a great number of people have moved to reside in space, the amount of garbage has increased It's natural for garbage to increase where people live
p2 Well, most of the garbage is properly disposed of
p3 But because anyone can take a leisure trip into space now There's garbage that gets thrown out without being disposed of
p4 These are objects we pro astronauts collect in the early stages This training is for that purpose
p5 I see So there are jobs like this as well
p6 If you keep looking only toward deep space, your place to return to will get demolished by the debris I get it
6 p1 Even I Think that now I have to seriously realize my full potential!!
p2 Hmmmm
p3 Yuuto, I got the retrieval object. I'm sending the coordinates. //If you retrieve that one, today's exercise is done Roger
p4 So it's on the opposite side of the station from here
p5 Excuse me, I'm off Yeah
p6
7 p1
p2/3 Kuh //Whoa That was close!! I rushed too much
p4 That's it!!
p5
p6 Alright!! This is the end...
p7
8 p1 Uwaaah!
p2 Shi...! What's wrong, Yuuto!?
p3 What are you doing!? That was dangerous!!
p4 Minorikawa!! Hmph! //Early bird gets the worm
p5
p6 There's no early or late in debris collection!!
9 p1 What does a class dropout understand!
p2 Go mooch off your daddy, Junior! What did you say!!?
p3/4 Minorikawa, you bastard! I'll kick your ass!! Yuuto, calm down. Your oxygen consumption has increased !! Dammit!
p5 What, Minorikawa-kun again? Yeah
10 p1 He's always getting in people's way
p2 But I wonder why Minorikawa-kun is in class B? If you look at his grades, he's class A level
p3 That's... //Because he doesn't have the cooperative spirit ...True
p4 Anyway, since today is the last day of EVA training, let's finish the rest quickly Roger
p5
p6 The return shuttle will depart shortly All ASCANs are to board and stand by
p7 Huh, Yuuto!? Bathroom
p8 We'll go on to the shuttle then Yeah
11 p1 Haaa~~~ A lot came out
p2 Huh!? The shuttle entry is locked?
p3 Over here, Yuuto!!
p4 Is that shuttle No. 2? You were late, Yuuto, so No. 1 has filled up already What about Gaku and Shibata-san? They're in No. 1
p5
p6 We will now return to the GEO Station Everyone, check your seat belts!!
12 p1
p2 Commencing deceleration!!
p3/4
p5 ...
p6 I'm still not used to the concept of *decelerating in order to catch up* to something in orbit
p7 The laws of motion in orbit
p8 Floating in space doesn't mean that one is outside the force of gravity. Even in a geostationary orbit 36,000 km above Earth's surface, there's a constant force of gravity equal to about 2% of what one experiences on the surface itself. And yet, the reason you don't fall to Earth is that because you keep moving at a set horizontal speed, that velocity and the force of gravity balance each other, keeping you revolving around Earth. That circular path is called an "orbit".
13 p1 When two objects are revolving in the same orbit, the way one catches up to the other is by decelerating rather than accelerating But why is it necessary to decelerate...?
p2 When one accelerates in orbit, the balance between the velocity (centrifugal force) and the force of gravity is disrupted, and the object shifts to a higher orbit On the other hand, if one decelerates then, pulled by gravity, one shifts to a lower orbit
p3 The distance between two objects increases when the orbit gets higher, and decreases when it gets lower In other words, decelerating and shifting to a lower orbit allows one to revolve faster and consequently catch up sooner
p4 In short, the inside route is faster...
p5 !!
p6 What!?
14 p1 Debris alarm
p2 Debris!?
p3 We're approaching a cloud of micro-debris!! We'll run into it if we stay on this course!!
p4 Kill the reverse thrust!! Break out of the orbit that will lead us toward the debris!! Roger!!
p5
p6 It's not working, we won't make it in time!! We'll brush against it at this rate!!
p7 Accelerate and increase altitude!!
15 p1 All hands, brace for impact!! A sudden depressurization is possible, so put on your helmets!!
p2 D- Debris... Are we going to be alright!?
p3 Calm down If you deal with it like you've been trained, there won't be a problem!!
p4/5
p6 Accelerating!!
16 p1
p2 Guuuh...
p3 I- I knew it... There's a lot of debris still left
p4 Sensors can't pick up micro-debris At this altitude, the speed is 3 km/s //Normally, the bumper would protect us, but...
p5 Here it is!!
p6
p7 We made it!!
17 p1
p2 We're passing by the debris cloud No effect on the ship!!
p2 Gaku!! Shibata-san!! The unexpected in space! And then... death!!https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/33793[English] [Translation] Star Children 9 by cmertb2012-03-12T04:12:39+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comReserved for Pinoy
{Honestly, I'm kinda disappointed with the developments}
421 p1 Open the door... What do you mean, Yuuto!? nb: The leader's unbelievable decision is to give up!! The awaited tankoubon Vol 1 goes on sale on Feb 17 (Fri)!! STAR CHILDREN Kida Masashi #9 To the Sky
p2 I'll open the door and let a doctor look at Kasugai-san
p3 Do you even understand what you're saying!? If you open the door, we'll all be expelled from class A!!
p4 I know that!!
p5
422 p1 Then what!? I won't get it if you don't explain properly!!
p2 Even if you ask me to explain It's just like I said
p3 Even I realize that we should let a doctor examine Kasugai But she might get better tomorrow //We don't know yet!!
p4 That might be true, but you can't keep saying that until Kasugai-san gets well!!
p5 The three of us couldn't clear today's assignment //There's no guarantee that we'll be able to clear the next one with the three of us again Naturally, if we don't complete our assignments, we don't get food
423 p1 In that case It's possible that Kasugai-san's symptoms will get even worse than they are now
p2 Before it comes to the worst case I think I have to make the decision now!!
p3/4
p5 Wa- Wait a minute, aren't you thinking too far ahead!? Kasugai's sickness might be a simple cold //Besides, this is only training
424 p1 Before it comes to worst, the school itself will put a stop to it!!
p2 Yeah I think so too
p3 R- Right!!? In that case...
p4 But we can't let that happen
p5 Wh- Why!? What are you trying to say!?
p6 If we suppose that this training were a real mission in space If the school stops it, it will mean the failure of the mission
425 p1 If a mission fails due to a crew member's ill health Then not choosing to discontinue it before that is a failure of judgment
p2 ...Certainly, if you look at it that way, then compared to opening the door and being expelled from class A We might receive an even lower evaluation
p3 B- But still Being expelled after getting all the way here...
p4 I don't want to drop out of class A either ...But more importantly
426 p1 Seeing someone suffer right in front of me and leaving them alone I hate that even more!!
p2/3
p4 I- I don't like it either!! Neither do I
p5 Gaku, Shibata-san ...So then
p6 Wa- Wa- Wait Wait a minute!!
427 p1 I understand that we need to open the door for Kasugai's sake!! I agree with that
p2 But what are we going to do about Sirius? If we drop out of class A, won't we be unable to get into Sirius!?
p3 What are you planning, Yuuto!? Eh!?
p4 ...Err What the hell! You haven't thought of anything!?
p5
p6 ...No //There might be one way What!?
428 p1 ...My dad I'll explain the situation to him and ask for his help
p2 Your dad... Subaru Daichi, the head of the 1AS Dept
p3 But Yuuto... Isn't your father opposed to you becoming an astronaut!?
p4 Yes ...But there's no other way
p5 At least, I'll ask him to make sure you all can stay in class A
p6
p7 I see. Yes, ask him Fujino-kun!?
429 p1 Did you think I'd say that!!? Moron!!
p2 Ouch...! What are you doing, Gaku!?
p3 Right back at you, what are you saying!? Don't mess around!!
p4 I'm not messing around!! I'm seriously...
p5 Ouch! Hold on, timeout!!
p6 Do you think I'll go along with this kind of a backroom deal!? If that's what it takes, no thanks!!
430 p1 If I get into Sirius like that There's no way I can build a worthy ship!!
p2 Gaku...
p3
p4 If we drop out of class A, it doesn't mean that the road to Sirius is completely sealed off Eh!? Really!?
p5 Class A is the main gateway into Sirius But it doesn't mean we absolutely have to pass through it
p6 In the past, there are examples of someone from class B getting into Sirius Really!? Who was it!?
431 p1 Amami Kousei was one of them nb: Kousei...!?
p2 So Kousei was from class B... And he went on to Sirius... And then became one of the Jupitneer 11
p3 Yeah!! Then we still have plenty of possibilities!?
p4 No //If you speak of possibility, it's infinitely close to 0 It's a very narrow and difficult path
p5 It's alright anyway
432 p1 Even if it's infinitely close to 0, it's still not 0. I won't give up!! I'll be sure to join Sirius from class B!!
p2 I can't lose to Kousei!!
p3 Now that I've heard about it, I can't give up either!! I wasn't going to give up from the start
p4 ... What?
433 p1 Alright! Let's open the door before someone changes their mind!! Not yet, Gaku
p2 Not everyone has voted
p3 Hmm!?
p4
p5 You mustn't... Open the door!!
p6 Ugh...
434 p1 I told you We should've opened it without telling Kasugai
p2 ...You must've known... That I would say so Subaru-kun
p3 Yeah
p4 ... Then why... did you come to tell me this?
p5 You thought that if you told me, I wouldn't be hurt?
p6 I didn't ...But
435 p1 I thought that you'd be hurt even more if we didn't tell you
p2
p3 Kasugai-san, you're proud, and you have a strong sense of responsibility If we didn't tell you, you'd feel that all of this was your fault
p4 ...You're very blunt
p5 Well, don't feel so bad about it!! You can still join Sirius even from class B!!
p2 Will now begin EVA training!! nb: Fresh start! And the setting changes to space---.https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/33387[English] [Translation] Star Children 8 by cmertb2012-02-11T03:55:38+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comReserved for Pinoy Manga
255 p1 top left: Expanded to 24 pages this week!! nb: Picking out 50 correct parts out of 1000... nb: Isn't that really harsh!? Harsh for sure. STAR CHILDREN #8 Decision Kida Masashi
p2 It's not like you can figure them out by color... They don't have any numbers on them either...
p3 How are we supposed to sort them out!?
p4 There is only one way to tell correct parts from the others
256 p1 Each correct part is guaranteed to have one other part with which it can combine In other words, you can make 25 sets out of the 50 parts
p2 The explanation is over Is that it? Isn't there an example!?
p3 We're supposed to make it with only that much information? It's a plastic model with a ton of excess parts and no manual...
p4 We have no choice but to check each part one by one
p5 It seems so
257 p1 This task is to test our perseverance, isn't it...?
p2 Perseverance... Patience~~~? I really suck at patience~~~
p3 nb: But perseverance was one of the things that Kousei said was "the right stuff" Eh~~~ Such a bother~~~ nb: You'd never believe perseverance is something Kousei had, but since he did, then I can do it too
p4 Aw-right!! Anyway, let's just do it!! That's right!!
p5
258 p1 Got one!! Ohhh---!!
p2 But //All we got is one!! Whatever, at least we got one!!
p3 But still~~~ I was looking forward to making a model of a spaceship Who'd think they'd make us do something so tedious~~~
p4 Surprisingly, I'm actually liking this Seriously!?
p5 At first I thought I'd be bad at it But I'm starting to feel that I'll find them no matter what, even if through sheer willpower
259 p1 I didn't think you were someone who hates to lose so much Do I really? Yeah, you really do
p2 Having said that, I'll leave it to you. Call me once you got all the components //Gweh!! Don't go running away, Gaku!!
p3 Tche, so strict~~~ Can't I take a break~~~?
p4 Of course not This is impossible to do without all four of us
p5 See? Hey hey //Fine, I'll do it!!
p6 Geez Ah! I got a match
p7 Nice, Shibata-san!! You did it!!
260 p1
p2 We spent three hours and got 10 components... I think we can make it somehow!?
p3 Excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom Then let's take a breather here
p4
p5 Kasugai-san
p6 Hmm? What!?
261 p1 ...No, it's nothing nb: ...I imagined it
p2 Why, what's happened!? ...Nothing
p3 More importantly, Gaku Can you tell what kind of a spaceship this is from these components?
p4 Just from these? I think if anyone could, it would be you, Gaku
p5 I see If we knew what the final shape would be like, it would become easier to search for the remaining parts
p6 Yeah~~~... That's true...
p7 This is the engine, and these are the gravity block and the cargo container... As a possibility, the closest one would be...
262 p1 The Jupitneer The Jupitneer!?
p2 ...Certainly Now that he mentioned it, it does look like it...
p3 Hmm!? //But what do you mean by "the closest one"?
p4 It's a little different from the Jupitneer design that I know Especially the shape of this engine block
p5 Maybe it's a prototype of the Jupitneer ...Or else
263 p1 It might be a new type of the Jupitneer class
p2 What do you mean by new type!? Why? How? Where did they build it!?
p3 Don't jump to conclusions. I'm just talking about possibilities here. I don't really know if it's a new type
p4 Then why is there such a model!?
264 p1 Well, if we suppose that this is a new type, then there was probably a plan to build it If the mission two years ago succeeded, then they would've been seeking "the next one"
p2 The next one!?
p3 It's continuous exploration. Because Jupiter is a treasure trove of resources. There was probably a plan to construct a mining base
p4 And then it would be reasonable to talk of going to Saturn next
p5 In that case, you'd be working on new types of spaceships
265 p1 ...Which means, there's a possibility of going to Jupiter again in that spaceship!!
p2 ...Well, it's not out of the question You're so persistent
p3
p4 That took you a while. Do you have indigestion or something?
p5
p6 Kasugai-san!?
p7
266-267 Kasugai-san!!
268 p1/2
p3 She has really high fever
p4 I knew it... I thought she looked strange just now. It wasn't my imagination.
p5 I... I'm alright Let's continue
p6 Wh- What are we going to do, Yuuto!? She said she's alright herself, should we go on!?
p7
269 p1 ...No We need to make Kasugai-san rest!!
p2 I- I'm... Alright, I told you
p3 No!!
p4 Even though everyone set me up, I'm the leader!! You must obey your leader's orders!!
p5
p6 Yuuto...
270 p1 Get on!!
p2 No
p3 Gaku, help us out Y- Yeah!!
p4 Don't touch me anywhere weird //Pervert //Let me down!! She's sick, and yet so noisy
p5/6
271 p1 beep
p2 beep x3 above temp: Medical Check
p3 It's orange Meaning we should have a doctor look at her
p4 I'll be alright... If I just rest a bit... I'll get better
p5 Kasugai-san Since when have you been feeling unwell?
p6 I told you... I'll be fine...
p7 Since when!!?
272 p1 I felt a little off yesterday morning...
p2 Maybe I was unwell when I decided to team up with you guys as well You've got a smart mouth even at a time like this!!
p3
p4 I see For now, rest well, Kasugai-san
p5 ...But You won't have enough people for today's assignment...
p6 It's an order from the leader!! Leave the rest to us!!
273 p1/2/3/4/5
p6 The assignment is over How did it go?
p7
274 p1 We failed
p2
p3 ...I see
p4/5/6
275 p1 I'm sorry I was so full of myself //But in the end, I was the one who dragged everyone down the most //Guh I'm sorry
p2 Kasugai-san...
p3/4
278 p1/2
p3 How is she?
p4 She's asleep now But the results of the medical check are still bad
p5 I see... Who would've thought
p6 That she'd be crying and apologizing
277 Kousei... What
p1 What are we going to do about the training starting tomorrow!? Are we going to go with just the three of us until Kasugai recovers?
p2 ...But assignments like yesterday and today Are impossible to complete with three people
Should we do!?
p3 So we won't be eating until Kasugai is well again!? Or do we force Kasugai to help?
p4 There's no way we can force Kasugai-san in her condition Having said that, if we don't get the food, it'll probably affect her recovery as well...
p5
278 p1 I'm sorry, both of you
p2 Let's open the exit door nb: Does it end here...?

1 p1 Kida Masashi #7 Vision STAR CHILDREN 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!!
14 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!!https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/33100[English] [Translation] Star Children 6 by cmertb2012-01-21T07:22:23+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comReserved for Pinoy Manga
1 p1 Bzzz--! Question 32 fail Kida Masashi STAR CHILDREN // #6 Signal left vert: Because it's simple, it's difficult to grasp. The biggest obstacle is "interpersonal relations"---.
p2 Again!? Fujino-kun, this is the third time in a row you make a mistake!! nb: Also read the interview with Wakata-san 4 pages prior!!
p3 Shut up, I know!! Besides, you didn't support us and earn us some points either!!
p4 How am I supposed to support you in something like this!!? I don't care, just do something!! //Anyway, let's start the next one!!
p5 This isn't good... The atmosphere is getting worse and worse I have to do something...
p6 Alright!!
2 p1 Let's break for now!!
p2 What are you talking about, Yuuto? We don't have the time to rest!! That's right, there's a time limit to this!!
p3 Why I thought you were fighting, but your opinions are actually the same
p4 Mmh...!
p5 Take a breather for now And after that, let's all get in sync and try one more time
3 p1 Why do I have to get in sync with you!!? You're the ones who need to get in sync with me!! Same here, I have to wish to get in sync with this woman!!
p2 Hold it, don't copy me!! You don't copy me!!
p3 I knew it, you're on the same page after all
p4 We're not!! //The same We're not!!
p5 Ggghh...!
p6 ...Anyway //While we're taking a break I have a proposal to make. Please listen
p7 A proposal?
4 p1 Working on this task itself is relatively simple But I think there are two difficult points in it
p2 Two?
p3 The first one is the 10 second interval between questions. Surprisingly, I have a feeling that it drains our concentration We get used to waiting for the next question and our minds start to wander
p4 The other problem is collective responsibility. The rule that one person's mistake becomes everyone's mistake turns into pressure little by little In these conditions, you keep making mistakes and the pressure increases, and that pressure leads to ever more mistakes
p5 So what should we do?
p6 There's something I'd like to try
p7
5 p1 No way!! It's embarrassing!!
p2 Embarrassing...? Only the four of us are here
p3 But still!! Besides, we're being observed by the instructors! What if we lose points for that!?
p4 It'll be alright They didn't set any restrictions on how we can cooperate on this task
p5 Surprisingly, this might be a good idea It's something I also did in the club in middle school
p6 B- But...
6 p1 Let's just try it. If it doesn't work, we'll think of something else!! So let's test it out!!
p2
p3 Alright, let's go!! Start!!
p4 Bzzz--- Question 1 fail
p5 Wha- Hold on, Subaru-kun! Why did you fail immediately...?
p6
7 p1/2
p2 Come on! Come on, everyone!!
p3
p4 O- Okay, okay!! D- Don't mind!
p5/6
8 p1 It’s true, we can switch over this way, without feeling down in a weird way We did this in the baseball club in middle school as well, after every mistake
p2 They say it makes sense in something like sports, every time there's a mistake you shout out and reset your emotions I did this in the basketball club in middle school too
p3 Eh! You played basketball, Shibata? Anything wrong with it? ...No
p4 Come on!! Kasugai-san, you too!!
p5 Don't blame your partners even if they fail Just high five and shout out!!
p6 D- Don't mind
9 p1 Too weak!! You're embarrassed!! Kya!
p2 B- But I can't help it I've never done something like this before...
p3 Do it harder Give it a good slap
p4 Hard...
p5
p6 Don't Mind!!
10 p1 Ouch... Th- That was too hard...
p2 ...But it's true I might be able to switch over better compared to just going to the next one without doing anything
p3 ...So, next The interval...
p4
p5 Hmm!? What happened?
p6 What are the Group 7 guys doing?
11 p1 Let me see
p2 He~~~~eh How interesting
p3 True //For 100 questions, we should maintain focus for about 18 and a half minutes Because there are breaks in the middle and our minds start wandering, we need to do something to keep on track
p4 ...But still Such a childish trick
p5 Really? I like it!! It's more exciting to do it together
p6 Somehow... //It feels like everyone's thoughts come together... Like when you greet the New Year...
12 p1 Or when a spaceship is about to lift off...
p2/3/4
p5 Yes!!
p6 Pin-pon! //Question 51 correct Yeah!!
13 p1
p2 Kasugai-san Raise your voice!!
p3 You're the only one left out!!
p4 Once you start, it's actually fun
p5 Yes!!
p6 Bzzz! //Question 53 fail Uh I- I'm sorry
p7
14 p1 Don't mind! Gimme a five!! Okaaay, switch over!!
p2/3
p4 Yes, don't mind!!
15 p1
p2 Yes!! Pin-pon
p3 Good, next!!
p4 Group 7, 100 questions answered correctly!!
p5 Eh!?
p6 It was the hundredth just now!?
p7 Because we were counting out loud We didn't even pay attention to what question number it was
16 p1 And we're Done~~~~!!
p2 Mmmmm...! I yelled too much, now my throat hurts
p3
p4 Have some water Together with everyone
p5 Well, for a minute I didn't think we'd make it But we got through it thanks to Yuuto's proposal
p6 I felt so embarrassed So it's natural
17 p1 ...You know
p2 At first, I had doubts whether this team could do it
p3 But now I want to get through the training with these members!!
p4
p5 What are you talking about, Yuuto? It was obvious! That's right, it’s natural! To boldly state that it's obvious... It has deep meaning
18 p1 Huhu I knew it, that kid is interesting
p2 I don't acknowledge him //That kind of a random and unreliable guy As usual, you're a data supremacist, Jigami
p3 ...But When I look at that boy
p4 I remember Amami Kousei...
p5/6/7
19 p1
p2/3 What's the status? It was was only for an instant, so we can't make the determination that it was the Jupitneer yet
p4 The exploration satellite trailing it caught a signal What are your instructions---?
20 p1 Director Subaru!! Continue the observations... Collect all data, no matter how trivial nb: This big shot is Yuuto's father!! nb: And is there a thread of hope that Kousei is alive...!?
p2 We can't discard even the slightest possibility Report every little detail!!https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/33018[English] [Translation] Star Children 5 by cmertb2012-01-12T22:40:39+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comReserved (for now)
265 left: The isolation environment training begins unexpectedly. But there's a sudden worry for Yuuto...
p1 STAR CHILDREN #5 The Right Stuff Kida Masashi Yuuto Is the leader?
p2 Will this be alright?
p3 All he has is the right to open the door It should be alright
p4 How little trust you have In me
p5 But still... I'm the leader Even though it was decided like that...
266 p1 Will it work out... With the four of us for two weeks!?
p2 Well, what's the point of getting weak-spirited before we actually do anything?
p3 Since I did become the leader Somehow, the four of us will get through through this two week exercise!!
p4
267 p1 This cabin is the storage for food and clothing
p2 Our food supplies are divided by day
p3 Huh? It won't open?
p4 The clothes for your training are stored in Box No. 4 First change into them
p5 Is this it?
p6 Alright, we'll go change over there
268 p1
p2 Ah!!
p3 I almost forgot
p4
p5 Great!! Yuuto, let's go look around other cabins
p6
p7 What's this cabin for? sfx: beep
269 p1/2
p3 I- I'm sorry!!
p4 Hehehe it was a nice view~~~ Th- The stimulus was too strong
p5
270 p1 I'm truly sorry It's not like we planned to peep on purpose...
p2 It's alright You can expect to be seen while changing in this isolation environment
p3 There's that thing constantly looking at you to begin with
p4
p5 What's that?
p6 Surveillance camera The cornerstone of isolation environment training
271 p1 Cornerstone!?
p2 They use that camera to check our speech and actions, body temperature, heart rate, everything So they can evaluate our ability to act, the state of the body, resistance to stress in an isolation environment
p3 Heeeh~~~ They see all of that
p4 Now that I think of it, Kousei said in the past "The indispensable quality for an astronaut" //...What as that?
p5 By the way, shower and toilet are inside Don't ever peep there at least!!
p6 I- I know
272 p1 So these are the basic private cabins
p2 They're just capsules, and pretty confined too
p3 Not really nb: Under gravity nb: Zero gravity What was simply space above your head under the force of gravity //Becomes usable when you're in zero gravity
p4 I see~~~ Yes, this should be enough
p5 This is the exercise room
273 p1 Nowadays, thanks to the developments in medicine, the degeneration in bone density and muscle mass can be arrested But same as on the ground, if you don't do anything, they'll degenerate naturally, so you need to supplement them with exercise
p2
p3 For now, we've looked around the facilities we have
p4 Hey, Yuuto, what are you doing!? Let's go!!
p5 Why are they doing this training?
p6 Why? It's the isolation environment training for us to join Sirius It could be even a longer term exercise...
274 p1 That's not what I mean. We only started a few days ago And yet, they made us undergo this tough training already. Isn't it strange?
p2 Could this mean that Core Inc Is planning to go to Jupiter again?
p3 True The way the teams were decided was pretty tough too
p4 You're jumping to conclusions! It was supposed to get tough eventually, so they're doing it a bit early
p5 But we can at least think about it a little, can't we?
275 p1 Announcement for the ASCANs
p2 I will now explain your first assignment, so assemble around the central terminal
p3
p4 Your first assignment will be to use the keyboard to enter each character displayed If you enter 100 in a row correctly, you clear this
p5 A hundred, huh Should be pretty easy
p6 However
276 p1 There is a one second time limit from when the letter is displayed to when you have to enter it O... One second!? If all four enter it correctly, the question is cleared
p2 It's alright If you stay calm, it's plenty of time
p3 The assignment is to be completed by 2100 //You can attempt it as many times as you want until then Th- That's how it is... Piece of cake However, if you fail to clear this, we will not provide you with today's food allotment
p4 Are we animals they're training to perform? It's probably even worse
p5 If you fail even for one day, and you're not able to eat, it'll affect you the next day In that case, the probability is high that you'll keep failing again and again
277 p1 So their plan is to put us under pressure and make us fail!! They're being cunning... Do they think it'll work on us!!?
p2 Let's clear this assignment quickly and eat our food in front of the camera!!
p3 True, this sounds like an easy task
p4 Even if there's a time limit, one second is plenty to input...
p5 What are they trying to accomplish By making us do this?
p6 And now, we begin!! Alright, everyone ready!? //Let's go!!
p7 Start!!
278 p1
p2 beep x3
p3 beep
p4 Pin-pon //Question 1 clear Yeah!!
p5 So the interval to the next character is 10 seconds
p6 At this rate, we can breeze through 100 questions
p7 Yes We can do this
279 p1
p2 What are you smirking about? It looks gross Hmm~~~?
p3 But isn't it fun to imagine it?
p4 How the atmosphere grows increasingly tense
p5 You're probably told often that your personality is twisted I'm not!!
280 p1 Bzzz //Question 33 fail
p2 Sorry I pressed the wrong key next to it
p3 Heeey, Yuuto? You gotta be careful~~~!!
p4
p5 Pin-pon //Question 50 clear
p6 Alright, half-way there!! Piece of cake!!
p7
281 p1 Ugh Bzzz //Question 51 fail
p2 S- Sorry Don't worry, let's go again!!
p3 Pin-pon //Question 80 clear Just 20 more!!
p4
p5 Bzzz //Question 81 fail Wha! //It wasn't "O"?
p6 It was "0" Shit! So it's not only letters!!
p7 Let's be careful next time
282 p1 Bzzz //Question 22 fail
p2 Bzzz //Question 62 fail
p3 Bzzz //Question 47 fail
p4 Phew~~~~
p5 Unexpectedly, it's difficult for all four to be correct every time... It's also more exhausting than I expected
p6 Starting over from scratch because of one person's mistake As a result, this turns into pressure not to make any mistakes of your own
p7 Also, what's really bad is the interval The time to catch your breath actually disrupts your concentration
283 p1 Bzzz //Question 13 fail
p2 Hey, you pressed the wrong key entirely just now!! //I saw you!! Are you messing around!?
p3 I'm not!! I knew it, but I just made the mistake accidentally!!
p4 You knew it, and you still pressed it!! So you are messing around!! I couldn't help it, I just pressed it!!
p5 Our accuracy keeps dropping... Because the concentration is declining
p6 !! Listen, Yuuto //What's essential to an astronaut is...
284 p1 Cooperativeness and fortitude That's the right stuff!!
p2 The right stuff, huh... I don't know if I have it... But I have to try!!
p3 So~~~ //What will you do?https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/32952[English] [Translation] Star Children 4 by cmertb2012-01-08T01:26:46+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comReserved
p2 Fujino Gaku Subaru Yuuto Kasugai Akari Shibata Rin These four are Team 7
p3 So we'll go with these seven teams for the total of 28 students in class A And now, without further delay---
left: The class is settled. The teams are settled too. So what's next...?
188 p1 We'll train using a spaceship simulator!!
p2 A spaceship already!? That's quick... Because this is class A Ohhhh!! We can practice spaceship operation already!!
p3 We have to operate a spaceship all of a sudden!? Isn't that too rough!?
p4 Don't worry The training itself will be simple
p5 Assemble at the pier behind the school building at 1400!! Dismissed!!
189 p1 Kasugai-san Shibata-san
p2 Thank you for teaming up with us
p3 We were able to stay in class A thanks to you
p4 And you're a high ranked 3rd and 4th pair too The look on Kaburagi's face when we joined was...
p5 Honestly, I didn't think there'd be anyone who'd support our views You really saved us!!
p6 Not really
190 p1 We don't really support your views or anything
p2 Eh!? What do you mean?
p3 It was simply convenient to team up with you... Well, that's probably overstating it But it's a good balance of advantages and disadvantages
p4 Balance of advantages and disadvantages?
p5 Guys like you, who haven't demonstrated sufficient achievements, are in class A
191 p1 If we, ranked 3rd and 4th, pick up such guys, it'll reflect on our own evaluation What's more, if we cover for your mistakes during our future training, that'll be evaluated as well
p2 And you too will be able to stay in class A It's to our mutual advantage
p3 Don't... mess with us, you...! Gaku, calm down!!
p4 So, Kasugai-san You don't want to join Sirius like we do?
p5 I want to become a special grade astronaut ※Special grade astronauts... They're astronauts who possess the highest grade qualifications, their unique mission is to be deep space navigators (commonly known as "Sirius").
192 p1 What I want is to have the top status as a special grade astronaut I'm not interested in space, or astronauts, or the Jupitneer 11
p2 Whaaaat!!! I... I see
p3 By the way Uwa!
p4 You interest me Subaru Yuuto-kun
p5 Eh!?
193 p1 Fujino Gaku-kun over there Fugah!?
p2 Based on my analysis, you have pretty good physical ability and deep knowledge of space equipment And the probable reason you were selected for class A is your outstanding supportive abilities
p3 Basically You're a personification of being considerate
p4 W... Well, yeah~~~ Gaku is considerate... how exactly?
p5 But I don't understand you Subaru Yuuto-kun
p6 Your physical and academic abilities are average, so what do you have that got you picked for class A? I'll be able to observe you while we're on the same team
194 p1
p2 gobble gobble
p3 Gaku, if you eat too much, it might affect your training I can't bear not eating!!
p4 That damn Kasugai Akari!! She wants to use us as her dupes
p5 But she did save us with that Whose side are you on, Yuuto!?
p6 In any case, Yuuto, you don't think anything about How they said all that about us!?
196 p1 Well, at first I was pissed off too, but ...Somehow
p2 Somehow?
p3 I was a little surprised
p4 Huuuh!?
p5 What's so surprising!?
p6 Even if they're aiming to be astronauts just like us There are people whose way of thinking is so different from yours or mine
196 p1 Ever since I was little, I listened to my dad and Kousei talk about space I didn't understand them at all, but I wanted to to join their conversations too //So I thought I'd become an astronaut so I could join in with them
p2 But, like Kasugai-san, who's not interested in space or astronauts To think that there are people like that who want to become astronauts...
p3 No no I think that girl's just unusual
p4 Certainly, I'm angry that she'd use as as her dupes I know, right?
p5 But on the other hand, if we cover up for her mistakes, we'll have her beaten!! Beaten...
197 p1
p2 Ohhh!! This is awesome!! Wow, big...
p3 The simulators we'll be using for training are inside this ship Each team, get inside the simulator assigned to you!!
198 p1 Wow---!! This interior is surely MTS-22!!
p2 It's the forerunner of all spaceships when they switched to full auto!!
p3 Of course, since we're under the force of gravity, the functions on the ceiling aren't included ...That's a space machinery maniac for you
p4 Heh~~~ It's pretty spacious on the inside
p5 Of course it is!! MTS-22 is based on the concept of "Commute to the Moon in comfort" and is complete with simple private cabins... R- Really...
p6 All teams are aboard
199 p1 First, each team is to decide on the leader!! Once you've decided, enter the leader's name in the terminal in the center. At that time, the training will begin.
p2 Leader?
p3 It means the leader of the spaceship simulation The commander, in other words
p4 So who'll Be the leader?
200 p1 How about you, Subaru-kun?
p2 M- Me!?
p3 But you're the son of the Jupitneer project leader Subaru Daichi-san I think you should be qualified
p4 No, it's a big role for me... In that case, shouldn't we pick someone with better results than me, like Kasugai-san or Shibata-san...?
p5 Noooo!!! I'm completely opposed to one of them being the leader!!
p6 Think about it //If one of them is the leader, they'll just use us and squeeze all the juice out of us Juice?
201 p1 Alright, then you do it, Gaku
p2 I'd rather be the pilot than the commander!! We're not deciding on the pilot
p3 So, that leaves us with no other choice but you, Subaru-kun, right?
p4 That's right, after you made that grand declaration about being a special grade astronaut Wasn't that you, Gaku!!?
p5 Well, first training probably won't be all that difficult If anything goes wrong, I'll back you up
p2 We will now begin isolation environment training for deep space navigators!! Isolation environment training?
p3 So it's not spaceship operation training!! We were deceived!!
p4 While inside, you will complete assignments that are given to you
204 p1 The time period is two weeks //You are strictly forbidden from going outside at that time nb: We're supposed to spend two weeks inside here!?
p2 In order for you to spend two weeks, we've prepared Some minimum materials, water, and food
p3 You can't open the exit door until your training has been completed!!
p4 As an exception //In case of an emergency such as an injury or illness
205 p1 Press the square button on the side of the door If you press it in an emergency, the door will open
p2 This one?
p3
p4 beep Uh, wait, Gaku-kun!!
p5 Huh!? It didn't open
p6 Only the leader has the right to open that door!! What the... However
206 p1 Whatever the situation may be, once the door is opened, all members of the team will be expelled from class A !! Everyone!? We will not permit any changes in leadership while the exercise is in progress!!
p2 The team's fate is all in the hands of the leader
p3 The leader
p4 That's me? nb: Everything is in Yuuto's hands!https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/32949[English] [Translation] Star Children 3 by cmertb2012-01-07T21:59:51+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comReserved
233 p1 Kida Masashi #3 Class A Star Children Ranked in the 150s among 218 people. Basically, "bottom half"...
p2 So among all 218 in the Astronaut Department Your rank is 157, Yuuto
p3 And Gaku is... 153rd Shit, better than me
p4 Hehehe, I'm above you I- It's not that far off //Both of us are in the bottom half
p5 ...Speaking of which
234 p1 Isn't this class A? ...Yeah //The best class out of the four nb: Is this some kind of a mistake!?
p2/3
p4 Why do you think we ended up in class A!? I have no idea
235 p1 We couldn't talk to the astronauts at the banquet yesterday, so I thought it was over Right. Yuuto, did you cheat or something? How would I cheat here!!?
p2 Subaru-kun, Fujino-kun
p3 Hey, good morning Man~~~ It's you, Makime Good morning, Makime-kun
p4 Did I do something bad? N- No, that's not it at all
p5 But still, I'm glad That both of you were able to get into class A
p6 I was worried~~~ When I heard that you weren't able to talk to the astronauts at the banquet yesterday
236 p1 After all, for us who aim for Sirius Getting into class A is indispensable
p2 That's true... I'm glad I got into this class ...But how?
p3 There's a total of 30 students in class A
p4 According to the report on scholastic and physical achievements prior enrollment, distributed to everyone in class A this morning Out of the total of 218 ASCANs, I'm 157th and Gaku is 153rd
p5 There are others in the 50s and the 70s...
p6 But the rest are all above 30!!
237 p1 Makime, what you said about the banquet being the last examination Maybe it was a mistake
p2 Well... If that's the case, I'm sorry
p3 Or maybe they saw through to my hidden talents Hahaha
p4 By the way, what rank are you, Makine? //...Let's see, 1st!? It was a fluke
p5 Amazing, such a huge difference with Yuuto Shut up
p6 Hey hey, it's you two!! The guys with the shitty ranking!!
238 p1 What kind of a trick did you use, Subaru Yuuto? Did you cry and beg your daddy Subaru Daichi, who's on the moon now?
p2
p3 What!? Yuuto, you're Subaru Daichi's son!?
p4 Get me an autograph!! No
p5 Are you stupid? You didn't know?
p6 Shut up!! Who are you!?
239 p1 Me? I'm Kaburagi Sousuke, ranked 2nd
p2 S... 2nd?
p3 You're lying!! There's no way you'd be 2nd with a face like that!! Someone like you doesn't have the right to comment on people's faces!!
p4 Tch! //We got into class A on our real abilities When trash like you gets mixed in, it pisses me off
p5 I won't say anything bad So withdraw from class A before you start dragging me down!!
p6 No
240 p1 I haven't done anything to feel guilty about I'm not here to play around
p2 So I won't do anything to drag you down, Kaburagi-kun!!
p3 Yeah, anyone can say anything they want If all you had to do is say, no one would ever face any hardship
p4 You bastard
p5 beep
p6
241 p1 Thanks for waiting!! ASCANs!!
p2 Oops
p3 What's up with this door!? I'm still here, but it closes already It's broken!!
p4/5/6
p7 Ahem
p8 Thanks for waiting, ASCANs!! I am the instructor in charge of your class A, Jigami Maya!!
242 p1 ...This person Is the homeroom teacher...
p2
p3 I am In Canopus, a top grade astronaut!!
p4 Ohhh~~~!! Hmph //"Show me the money" types, huh
p5 Without further ado, I'm going to explain your future curriculum to you!!
p6 You, class A, are the chosen 30 students You will have a special curriculum different from other classes
p7 And for that, first...
243 p1 You will be split up into four person teams!!
p2 Four person teams!?
p3 From now on, you will participate in activities and train within your teams
p4 You are free to choose your team members You can use the achievement ranking report distributed this morning, or you can talk to everyone and pick who you like
244 p1 However, it's possible that some teams won't get formed due to mutual interference So I've set up some pairs in advance
p2 I've paired you up based on your ranking from top to bottom
p3 In other words, those ranked 1st and 2nd are a pair 3rd and 4th are another pair
p4 ...Which means
p5 Geh, I have to pair up with Yuuto Geh... Gaku's rank is above me, so I can't even say anything back to him
p6 The way to decide the teams Use this ranking table for that as well!!
245 p1 When two pairs come to an agreement, place a check mark next to the other pair That will form the team!!
p2 You have until 12 pm to decide on your teams Until then you can all move about freely
p3 However, and I think you realize this, there are 30 students in class A Once four person teams are formed, there will necessarily be one pair left over
p4 If they can't find a team by 12 pm The remaining pair...
246 p1 Will be expelled From class A!!
p2 Wha... For real!?
p3 Expelled... That's sudden...
p4 The explanation is over!! Dismissed!!
p5 Hey, what are we going to do, Yuuto?
p6 Hahahaha
247 p1 This is pretty simple!! There's no need for us to be worried about being expelled!!
p2
p3 Everyone, please listen up!!
p4 You can see it from the ranking data For some reason, there are two students in this class who stand out with their low ranking
p5 They are these two!! Wha...!
p6 If you don't want to get expelled, and since we will train in teams from now on There's no advantage in teaming up with low-ranked guys
248 p1 In that case, if we exclude these two from the start and form teams Our class A won't have to worry about being expelled, and we'll be able to calmly face the training that's coming up
p2 Kaburagi, you bastard!!
p3 Yeah, that's true Not a bad idea Yup Why are those two in class A to begin with? H... Hey...
p4 It seems we're all in agreement overall And now, everyone //Let's carefully pick our teams
p5 Alright, let's go Who do we want to team up with?
p6
249 p1 H- Hey, Makime!! Team up with us!!
p2 Hey hey, are you stupid? There's no one who'd want to team up with low-ranked guys like you
p3 Shut up!! I didn't ask you!!
p4 Huh!? Did you forget already!?
p5 I'm ranked 2nd Makime and I are a pair
p6 I'm sorry That's how it is, and I can't decide this on my own
p7 Let's go, Makime! Y- Yeah
p8 Gnnnnn That Kaburagi bastard...
p9 And why aren't you saying anything, Yuuto!!? Say something back at him!!
250 p1 No... I think it's just as Kaburagi-kun said
p2 Even you, Yuuto, what are you saying!?
p3 But it's true In this situation, no one will want to team up with us
p4 C- Certainly, they made pairs based on the ranking, and those who don't find a team get expelled It's as if the rules were designed to fail us from the start
p5 ...Yeah So then, we have no choice but go cry ourselves to sleep in these conditions!?
p6 ...But If you look at it another way
251 p1 Isn't this our chance?
p2 Ch... Chance!?
p3 We don't belong in class A begin with, if you only look at the ranking And we don't know the reason we ended up in class A
p4 That much is true So why?
p5 Like I said, we don't know What!? It's useless to think about what we don't know
p6 But the reality is that we are in class A
252 p1 Therefore, whether we use this chance or lose it is up to us... Right?
p2
p3 He... hehe That's so true!!
p4 I also want to give one hell of a surprise to that bastard Kaburagi!
p5 But what are we going to do? After being prejudiced like that by Kaburagi, no one will even talk to us
p6 ...In that case We'll start something up ourselves
253 p1
p2 Makime-kun, Kaburagi-kun Would you team up with us?
p3 Ranked 9th and 10th? Hmph, out of the question
p4
p5 It's alright!! There are still some higher rankers left But it would be safer to go to someone ranked lower
p6 Tch! No one decent is coming! That 3rd-4th pair dared to put our proposal on hold
p7 sfx: Piron Hmm, an email!?
p8 Hey, look at this...
254 p1 That lowest ranked pair Looks like they're going to do something
p2 Assembling people using the email feature of this ranking table worked like a charm
p3 Surprisingly, they came Yeah Alright, let's do it!!
p4 Everyone, thank you very much for coming
p5 The reason we assembled you is none other
p6 Than to announce the conditions for a pair we'd want to team up with
255 p1 Hey, what are they talking about!!? Don't they understand their position!?
p2 Who we want to team up with
p3 Is the pair who would aim to go to Jupiter with us
p4 Ju- Jupiter!? Is this a joke!?
p5 Hey, don't mess around!! After the accident with the Jupitneer, all manned space exploration missions beyond Mars have been frozen!!
256 p1 We know that
p2 But Amami Kousei Said back then, "We won't give up"
p3 However difficult and desperate the situation might be I will go to Jupiter and rescue the Jupitneer 11
p4 Yeah, but come on... To think that they're alive...
p5 I understand your feelings very well, Subaru-kun
257 p1 But with the main engine damaged Even if the backup is online and is able to support life function, it's unnatural that ever since the accident there has been no communication and no signal
p2 I understand the desire to believe that the Jupitneer 11 survived But to act based on your faith in something with such low probability
p3 Is just a gamble
p4 We are those who aim to become astronauts If we act on our hopes, no matter how many lives we have, they won't be enough
p5 However...
258 p1 I think that what Makime says is correct
p2 Gaku!?
p3 ...Just kidding It's payback for that other time
p4 What Yuuto wants to say Isn't wrong either
259 p1 What do you mean?
p2 The biggest part of this class is Aiming to join Sirius, right?
p3 Sirius is The vanguard that goes to planets or deep space regions that no one has gone to before
p4 For those who want to be in Sirius, saying things like "I haven't been there, so I don't know" Or "The probability is low so we mustn't" is out of the question
260 p1 Makime
p2 Yuuto understands what you're saying perfectly But we
p3 We want to team up with the guys who want to be in Sirius The real Sirius, where "we won't know unless we go there!"
261 p1
p2 And so If you're here, we want you to come forward
p3 We couldn't think of any other way but this //If you're not here, we'll have no choice but to give up But we want the pair we team up with to share our goals
p4
p5 Wh- what do we do? Y- Yeah~~~ Well, but you know It's probably useless
p6 Hah, that's right There's no way there'd be someone to come forward
262 p1 Alright
p2 !!
p3 We'll Team up with you nb: Who's the savior of the lowest ranked pair!?
p4 The interview with Kida-sensei is on the next page!!https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/32934[English] [Translation] Star Children 2 by cmertb2012-01-07T06:00:27+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comIf you want to scanlate this, contact me first.
Yeah, I'm a sucker for such stories. Couldn't stop myself from translating this. Although I really hope that another translator picks this up, because I actually don't really have the time. T_T
1 p1 top right: Kida Masashi box: Kagoshima Prefecture, Tanegashima The 2nd installment of this new series also has a big development in 42 pages!! Star Children bot right: Yuuto has landed in a place that's closest to space...
p2 Tanegashima Space Center
p3/4/5
2 Star Children #2 Core Space left vert: Core Space Academy!! Etched in the heart, the first step!! box: {story so far etc, screw it}
3 p1 Kousei too was trained here, graduated And became an astronaut...
p2 Kousei... I've come to Core Space as well
p3 ...But still "If it's just enrolling, anyone can do it" That's what he'd probably say
p4 ...But it's fine Say what you will!!
p5 In the end, this place is the starting line!!
4 p1 Wait for me, Kousei!! I... will become an astronaut no matter what!!
p2 What's that, is there something to look at!? No clue
p3 You're... from the AS department?
p4
p5 E... Eies!?
5 p1 AS, as in the first letters in AStronaut Ahhh, I see!!
p2 But how did you know that I'm in the Astronaut Department?
p3 That pose just now, it was Amami Kousei, wasn't it? So I thought, could you be by any chance...?
p4 So you're a fan of Amami Kousei Eh, yeah, well...
p5 Ah, my name is Subaru Yuuto Nice to meet you
p6 I'm Makime Jun Likewise, pleased to meet you
6 p1 But you got here early, Subaru-kun, didn't you? The AS dept entrance ceremony starts at 1500, there are still four hours left The ones riding in the shuttle bus were all students from other departments, those whose entrance ceremony is before ours
p2 I wanted to be the first one here from the AS dept, so I came early
p3 Well--- I just accidentally woke up early this morning
p4 Ahaha, I know!! Me too!!
p5 But now that we got here early I wonder what we should do before the entrance ceremony...
p6 Alright, then we should go to the dorm The dorm?
7 p1 I was also thinking I'd get here early and complete the procedures for moving into the dorm I see //There are procedures for moving in too
p2 I've been strangely nervous since the morning I forgot something I have to do
p3 Thank you, Makime-kun!! We help each other when in trouble
p4 By the way, Subaru-kun, are you by any chance a relative of the Jupitneer project leader Subaru Daichi-san?
p5 Uh err... I'm... his son
p6 Ah! //I knew it, right? truck: Dinner Time
9 p1
p2 Thank you for your work
p3 Likewise Thank you, Space Academy, for giving us something to do every year on the day of the entrance ceremony
p4/5
p6 My room is 412 Mine is 308
p7 See you Yeah, later
9 p1 Right, the guys who get into the space academy are really mature
p2
p3 So the dorm has two person rooms... I'm worried about who my roommate might be...
p4 Well, if he's a student at the space academy, he wouldn't be someone weird
p5 Here it is!! Room 308
p6 Beep
10 p1
p2 Wha... What the hell is this!?
p3 Room 308... ...Yeah, looks like it
p4 What's going on here!? Is this room being used as a warehouse or a storage closet?
11 p1
p2 Hmm!? Who are you?
p3 What do you want?
p4 Well, it's not like I want something... Wow, funky hair
p5
p6 Doooh!! Uwaaah!!
12 p1 I caught a thief!! Who are you calling a thief!!? Ouch!
p2 I'm Subaru Yuuto who'll be living in this room!!
p3 ...Subaru Yuuto!? Really?
p4 Well~~~ Sorry, my bad I really thought you came to steal my collection
p5 You mean, all of this is yours?
p6 Yup!! The room of someone aiming to be an astronaut has to be like this, right!!?
13 p1 I'm going to live in this room too The name's Fujino Gaku!!
p2 H... Hello So there are guys like this at the space academy too... //And he's my roommate on top?
p3
p4 A Jupitneer poster Ohhh!!
p5 This poster is a limited edition item!!
p6 Actually!! I'll show you something even better
14 p1 Tadaaa!! //The Jupitneer 11's Amami Kousei's photo shoot!! And it's autographed too!! //It's not digital, it's analog!!
p2
p3 That's not Amami Kousei's autograph Whaaat!!? Kousei's autograph is not as smooth and it's in hiragana tl note: Hiragana is one of the phonetic alphabets that can be used to write any Japanese word. It's also used by children until they learn kanji.
p4 Nnnngwaaaah, I got cheated!! And it was expensive too!! You bought it, huh...
p5 But how do you know that this is a fake!? Eh!?
p6 Don't tell me, Subaru, you...
15 p1 You're a fanatic!? Heh!?
p2 No... I'm not You don't have to hide it, I can see
p3 I can say that I'm a space machinery fanatic too
p4 Alright!! I'll give you this autographed photo!! I don't need it Don't hold back now This autograph's a fake...
p5
p6 As birds of a feather, we should stick together from now on!! Eh!? //Birds of a feather!?
16 p1 P... Pleased to meet you, Fujino-kun Don't be so cold!! //Call me Gaku, Yuuto!!
p2 He addresses me by name without an honorific all of a sudden!? I got it, Fujino-kun Gaku!!
p3 I... I got it, Gaku Aw-right!! Such a bother...
p4 This is an announcement for the new students of the Astronaut Department
p5 We will shortly hold the ASCAN initiation ceremony!! The Astronaut Department new students, please assemble in the Spherical Auditorium!!
p6 Yeah, finally~~~!!
p7 Alright, let's go, Gaku!! Yeah!!
17 p1
p2 As you know, ladies and gentlemen, space development currently finds itself in a difficult situation
p3 Especially when it concerns deep space exploration, as well as exploitation Following the Jupitneer accident
p4 The backlash from the world has been severe
p5 However
18 p1 Was the Jupitneer accident such a failure that the world says it was?
p2 We don't think so!!
p3 Certainly, the accident was painful The truth is that there are many points that we must reflect upon
p4 But we can't stop here and not advance further!!
p5 The ASCAN badges that all of you have received
19 p1 ASCAN AStronaut CANdidate "Uchuuhikoushi kouhosei" in Japanese
p2 The aspirations of your predecessors are passed on to you in them
p3/4/5
20-21 The 218 new students of the Core Space Academy Astronaut Department!! I now designate you the 31st class of ASCANs!!
22 p1 I too... Will inherit it... I will!!
p2/3 This concludes the 31st ASCAN initiation ceremony There will be a banquet after this at 1800, in order to deepen the friendship between departments Fugah!? Food!?
p4
23 p1
p2 Food!! Where's the food!!? They'll bring it soon...
p3
p4 Would you like something to drink? Thank you very much Me too, me too
p5 Puhaaah~~~! I'm back to life Are you a geezer!?
24 p1 Subaru-kun Ah, Makime-kun!!
p2 Someone you know, Yuuto? He's Makime-kun, I met him today when I got here
p3 This is my roommate Numata-kun Hello
p4 My roommate Fujino Gaku Nice to meet you!!
p5 But really, that's the Core Inc operated school for you They even prepared a banquet for the students
25 p1 Speaking of that, which course are you two taking, Subaru-kun?
p2 Course?
p3 This is a conversation for the future, but in this AS dept, even though everyone aspires to become an astronaut You have to elect the course based on the role in space
p4 Astronauts are divided by grade, from junior to top //But also more narrowly by field of study, such as space medicine, space engineering, or space construction There are even space artists
p5 ...Also, we mustn't forget
26 p1 The special grade of astronauts, deep space astronavigators More commonly known as "Sirius", the brightest star in the sky
p2 They're a mere 1% of all astronauts The elite who explore the most dangerous, as yet unknown reaches of deep space
p3 All of the Jupitneer 11 were a part of Sirius too
p4 I also aspire to join Sirius What about you, Subaru-kun?
p5 ...I
27 p1 I will go to save the Jupitneer 11... Amami Kousei!!
p2 You'll probably laugh if I tell you But I want to join Sirius too
p3 That's right In the end, men have to aim for No. 1!!
p4 We will now begin the Astronaut Department banquet But first, let me introduce some special guests of this banquet
p5 Guests?
p5/6/7 They've returned from Mars after Splendidly concluding their mission, MSC-132
28 p1 They're active duty astronauts!! Ohhhh!!
p2/3/4 Top grade astronaut Matsurino Kiyoshi-san Likewise, top grade astronaut Urashima Noriko-san Mid grade astronaut Saijou Nobuaki-san
29 p1 Real astronauts... First time I see any other than dad or Kousei...
p2 This is awesome, Yuuto!! You probably can't hold back as an astronautics fanatic I'm not a fanatic
p3 And now, feel free to talk to the three of them, and please begin the banquet
p4/5/6
30 p1
p2 We can't get to them Looks like we should wait a little
p3 But really They've come back from Mars, huh...
p4 The MSC mission... the mission to build a space elevator on Mars It's now the main project of Core Inc
p5 In other words, those three that engage in it are the elite
p6 Elite, huh...
31 p1 Hmm!? Such amazing people are top grade or mid grade? So special grade Kousei was that amazing!?
p2
p3 What's wrong, Makime-kun!?
p4 ...Well There's something that makes me a little concerned
p5 Hey, Yuuto! Try this!! You too, Makime!! It's really tasty!! Yeah yeah, I got it
p6 Mmm... True Really good
p7 Excuse me!! Please give my compliments to the chef who made this
p8 Err... I'll pass it along Thank you
32 p1/2/3
p4 How was it?
p5 It's as you said, Makime-kun That astronaut nonchalantly asked questions as if probing students one by one
p6 The two other astronauts I saw were doing the same As expected, this banquet is not just a meal with some astronauts
33 p1 It's an ASCAN test conducted by active duty astronauts!
p2 A test... What for?
p3 It's to split us up into classes tomorrow
p4 Don't they decide on classes based on academic and physical performance prior to enrollment?
p5 If that were the case, they'd announce the results today //I've been wondering why they put it off for one day But it makes sense if this is the last examination
34 p1 And if you're aiming for Sirius //Of the four classes we're split into tomorrow You have to end up in the top-most class A!!
p2 R- Really? What-what?
p3 Five more minutes remain to the end of the banquet ASCANs who haven't yet talked to the astronauts, please hurry and do so
p4 We have to talk to them too!! Yeah
p5 Let us go as well!!
p6
35 p1 Kya!
p2 Uwa!
p3 Tch, you're in the way!!
p4 Uwa, it's juice Are you alright? Y... Yes, I'm fine
p5 Subaru-kun!! If you don't hurry up, you won't make it!!
p6 I'll be there soon Go on without me
36 p1 I'll help you clean up And I'll get something to wipe with
p2 Ah, you don't have to I'll take care of this myself, so it's fine
p3 Let's do it together It'll be quicker
p4
p5 Th- Thank you I've borrowed rags!!
p6
p7 Thank you very much to the three of you for today Uh!
37 p1 The banquet is now over Oh crap! Eh //The astronauts left!?
p2 What do we do, Yuuto? We didn't exchange a word with them!!
p3 I- I'm sorry Because of me, you weren't able to talk to the astronauts...
p4 No... It's not a big deal Like hell it's not!! But this and that aren't related!!
p5 I'll go talk to the superiors
p6 P- Please wait
p7 We'll be alright
38 p1 If we become astronauts We'll be able to talk to them any time
p2
p3 What are you doing, Gaku!!?
p4 What do you mean "we'll be alright"!!? Don't try to act cool!! We couldn't do anything, we had to help her then!! What are you planning to do to get into Sirius!? I'll think about that now!! Think faster!!
p5/6/7
p8 It seems that Subaru-kun and his friend didn't get to talk to the astronauts in the end ...Yeah
39 p1 That makes two down
p2 Eh!?
p3 No... It's nothing
p4
p5 sign: Principal
p6 Thank you so much for your efforts right after coming back from Mars What do you think about our ASCANs this year?
p7 Yes, we've been able to thoroughly probe *all of them*
40 p1 They were the same as any other year
p2 There were a few who noticed that the banquet also doubled as an interview
p3 But as expected, there weren't any who realized that these guys weren't *real* astronauts
p4 Well, that's why the true aim of the banquet To ascertain the "true" face of the ASCANs, is possible
p5 Finally, I will naturally take many points off the kids who pushed me aside
p6
41 p1
p2 Still, I didn't think I'd have to Dress like this right after getting back from Mars
p3 Their performance was also pretty good Yes
p4 Ah, but
42 p1 There were some kids who looked pretty interesting A passing mark for being themselves!! bot right: But, how will the class assignment go...!?
p2
p3 Thank you for your work Please come again for this truck: Theater troupe // Dinner Time
right: Next chapter is also expanded to 30 pages!!https://mangahelpers.com/t/cmertb/releases/32918[English] [Translation] Star Children 1 by cmertb2012-01-06T06:59:47+00:00cmertbadmin@mangahelpers.comIf you want to scanlate this, contact me first.

11 ---Year 2076 Thirteen days are left to the first in history manned probe to Jupiter The Jupiter shuttle "Jupitneer" that is to play the leading part in this is currently moored at the docking port //On the farthest tip of the space side of the space elevator
STAR CHILDREN New series People entrust their future to space... The last new series of the year takes place 65 years in the future! Liftoff with the full 63 pages!
12-13 The oath sworn together --- to touch down on Jupiter!! The hot-blooded astronaut manga!
STAR CHILDREN #1 On Your Mark First serialization of a young colt overflowing with wisdom! Kida Masashi
14
15 p1 New series Star Children // Kida Masashi The story begins four color pages ago!
p1/2 The Jupitneer 11 have already assembled over there, right?
p3 No //The crew members currently have their last free time before the launch date
p4 They are scheduled to reassemble at the station in the geostationary orbit 5 days before launch
p5 Yuuto!! Hey, Yuuto!
p6 So, the only Japanese member Amami Kousei-san isn't there either? Correct !!
16 p1
p2 Ah ah, it got injured Such a thick skull
p3 That hurt!! What are you doing, you violent teacher!!
p4 People who ignore class and watch TV Should be punished, obviously
p5 I object to violence!! Yuuto, it's your fault Give it up
17 p1
p2 ...Geez She just doesn't get it, that violent teacher!!
p3 The awesomeness of the first manned probe of Jupiter!!
p4 ... Huh!?
p5 But there have been plenty of unmanned Jupiter probes Is this really something so awesome?
p6 It is awesome!! What's more, there's one Japanese crew member selected from among all the astronauts in the world...
18 p1 He is Amami Kousei!! That's right, me!!
p2
p3 Aren't I amazing!!?
p4 Kousei!!! Long time no see, Yuuto! Eh! He's the real one!?
p5
19 p1
p2 Ohhhh, thank you very much!! Is that an autograph?
p3 So you and Amami-san know each other, Yuuto
p4 Yuuto's father is like my astronaut teacher
p5 I often came to their house to visit ever since I was little Heeh~~~
p6 More importantly, what are you doing here, Kousei? What about the Jupitneer!?
20 p1 It's alright I'll be going back on the tomorrow evening space elevator flight
p2 Is that really alright? It's the first manned flight to Jupiter after all
p3 Actually, about that
p4 They were wondering on TV If it's really necessary to use that much money to go to Jupiter?
p5 Like I've been telling you...
p6 Mmmg The reason for going to Jupiter, huh... //True, they do say a lot of things
21 p1 Like going there for resources. But that's not all Helium-3 that's required for fusion can be found on the Moon, as well as tritium
p2 But here's the opposite question!!
p3 How long do you think we'll be able to live on this planet?
p4 How long...? Forever, won't we?
p5 Forever is impossible
p6 If we look in the near future, the population continues to increase, and the degradation of our environment won't stop If we take the long term view, the Earth might become uninhabitable to humans due to solar activity //Or maybe an unstoppable meteor will come crashing down
22 p1 In order for mankind as a species to survive in the future We must also think of moving to a different planet so that we can be prepared for something we don't know about yet
p2 And in order to achieve that, we must first go *there* There's meaning in someone simply going to Jupiter and coming back!!
p3
p4 ...Well //That's what the Jupitneer's captain said, but I don't really get it You don't get it, stupid Kousei!!?
23 p1 Yuuto, you little brat, you kicked me!!? Shut up, idiot Kousei!! I'm a part of the Jupitneer 11!! Like I care!!
p2 Umm Are you scared?
p3 They said on TV that the probability of success of this mission is 50% 64% at best
p4 What are you talking about!!? He'll be the first person to ever go to Jupiter!!
p5 There's no way he's scared Right, Kousei!!?
p6 I am scared
24 p1 I'm going to a place no one has gone before and I don't know if I'll be able to return That scares me
p2/3
p4 Just kidding~~~ There's no way I'd be scared!!
p5 Th- That's right, Amami-san!! Because you've been picked from among the world's astronauts, a member of the Jupitneer 11!!
p6 We'll be cheering for you as well!!
25 p1 Subaru Daichi, Nozomi, Yuuto tl note: The meaning of the family name is the Pleiades constellation, and of the given names -- earth, hope, and space man
p2 Mmmm Tasty!!
p3 As always, your cooking is the best, Nozomi-san Thank you. I made lots just for you, Kousei-kun, so eat plenty
p4 Che So you knew Kousei was coming, mom!?
p5 I didn't tell you, Yuuto? You did not!!
p6 //!! //Kousei, that's mine!! But you're not eating it at all I was saving it for later!!
26 p1
p2 Yeah~~~ I'm stuffed
p3
p4 Are you still mad that I ate your karaage? I'm not!!
p5
p6 Kousei, why did you say *something like that* back then?
p7 Something like that?
27 p1 That you're scared of going to Jupiter
p2 That was a joke... You're lying!!
p3
p4 ...Well It's true that I'm scared
p5 Why is that!!? It's not like you at all, Kousei!!
p6 Not like me?
p7 Whatever difficult mission it may be You always laugh, say "piece of cake", and head off...
28 p1 I wanted to become like that kind of Kousei And decided to become an astronaut
p2
p3 ...I see So that's how it is
p4 In that case... Give up on becoming an astronaut
p5 Eh!?
29 p1 The space is a world of emptiness It's a world of death where humans cannot survive
p2 One little mistake can send you flying to the edges of the universe People have died just from brushing lightly against garbage strewn around from the past space exploration
p3 Of the astronauts from my class, three are dead already
p4 I- I'm not scared of that!!
p5
30 p1 Yuuto, have you told your parents That you want to be an astronaut?
p2 !!
p3 ... D- Dad is against it
p4 ...I haven't yet Told mom
p5 Why?
p6 But if dad is against it It's obvious mom would be against it too
p7 So I'll become an astronaut on my own!!
31 p1 After I graduate from middle school, I'll go to the Core Space Academy!! At Core, the school pays for your tuition...
p2 But Yuuto Core requires permission from the parents in order to enroll
p3
p4 ...Huh
p5/6
32 p1 Say, Kousei //Is going to Jupiter really that dangerous? I wonder about that //I don't know either
p2
p3 Then let's make a promise //Kousei, you'll go to Jupiter, complete the mission successfully, and return And then I
33 p1 I'll become an astronaut!! I'll become and astronaut, and when you're coming back from Jupiter //I'll fly out to meet you!!
p2
p3 I'll make it work out one way or another But isn't it impossible for you, Yuuto? !!
p4 You said it!! "One way or another", you said it!! //Then I'll manage it one way or another as well!! What kind of logic is that?
p5 It's a promise, Kousei, the sign of our promise!! How was that? Like this, just like this!!
34 p1 Thank you for you hospitality
p2 Kousei-kun, bring us some kind of a souvenir from Jupiter Alright, then I'll bring the Shoemaker-Levy comet
p3 Kousei, don't forget our promise!! Heh
p4 Promise? Wow, you have such a bed head Uh... err
p5 Ah! //Kousei-kun, the time! Whoa, crap!
p6 Yuuto //Be a good boy and listen to what Nozomi-san tells you Don't treat me like a kid!!
p7 Ah, by the way!! I'll go all the way to the space elevator to watch on the day you launch!!
35 p1 See you I'll go for a quick trip to Jupiter
p2
p3 The area of the Pacific Ocean on the equator around Kiribati
36-37 p1 Space Elevator Earth Port
p2 Hah~~~ It's really amazing
p3 I know, right!! //Look at this!! The total length of the space elevator is around 100 thousand km, and it's the biggest man-made structure ever //It's stabilized by the Earth's gravity and the centrifugal force caused by the Earth's rotation
p4 As soon as the Jupitneer currently moored at the docking port breaks off its connection, the centrifugal force Will give it the required escape velocity without any fuel expenditure
38 p1 But it might get bad if it falls down Besides, I'm acrophobic, so it's no good for me
p2 It'll be alright, I mean... It's fine, I'm not interested in space
p3 Che! //What do you mean, not interested Even though dad is an astronaut, are you alright saying that?
p4 Dad is dad And I am me!!
p5 Come on, let's go already Or there won't be any space left for us
p5 ... //Stupid mom Yuuto, no supper for you tonight Wait, forget I said that!!
39 p1/2 ...And then, in 2055 The space infrastructure for this international space elevator was completed //And today, in 2076, the time has come for mankind to once again take "a giant leap" To the new land that we call Jupiter

p4 Wahahahaha!
p5 Kousei~~~ Kyahahaha, he really did it
p6 Make him stop... uh, no //Whatever!! Let him start the message just like that!! Kousei, the captain told you to begin!!
51 p1 Geez, at least let me get my heart ready //Baldy captain I can hear you, Mister Amami!!
p2 Eh~~~ Ahem! //Hello, everyone on Earth The weather on Jupiter is cloudy all over
p3 From here, Earth looks merely as one of a multitude of stars
p4 We've been traveling through space for about two years Bzzz //Space is a dangerous place
p5 We never know when something might happen in space Did something flash just now? Eh, what!? A UFO!? No, behind the Jupitneer... There are also times when something happens and we have no ways of coping with it
p6 ...But //Bzz bzzzz...
52-53
54 p1 Kyaaa-----!!! Hey, what was that!? It exploded!! Was that an accident!?
p2 Err... We are very sorry //The video is presently... Eh... Uh, yes, go to commercial... //Eh, right now!?
p3 Wh- What happened!? What's going on, Yuuto!?
p4 I- I don't know
p5 ...But //The moment the video broke off... No matter how I look at it, I can't think of anything but an engine explosion...
55 p1
p2 Th- That That can't be!! //...I mean
p3 Kousei...!
p4 We are trying to confirm the present situation Please stay tuned
p5/6 Bzz---- //Bzzzz ...--- //Ah!! //Has the video come back? !!
56 p1 Alright, I hope this connected
p2/3
p4 It broke off in the middle just now //Sorry about that The situation has gotten somewhat bad
57 p1 I'm sorry But I'll be the only one to deliver the message from the crew
p2 H- Hey, what is he talking about? This is not the time for messages or anything?!
p3 Err... How far did I get last time? Someone should stop him... It's impossible, he's on Jupiter!!
p4 That's right I said that space is dangerous
p5 It's true that space is dangerous //Humans can't live in space ...But
58 p1 That's precisely why
p2 There's value in what we astronauts do
p3 In space, there are many places that no one has gone to yet And new discoveries to be made
p4 I want to... go farther into space
p5 The possibilities of space are limitless
p6 That's why I... No
59 p1 We won't give up!!
p2 Well, the situation might be a little bad //But it's alright!! I've undergone intensive training just for such eventualities
p3 ...Oh, there's one thing I forgot to say There's something I noticed when I came to Jupiter...
60 p1 click
p2/3
p4 Wh- What's going on...? Eh err...
p5 I- Is he alright? D- Don't ask me!!
p6 Ah... //We've just received information According to the announcement from Core Inc which operates the Jupitneer
63 p1 The signal from the Jupitneer was lost while it was in orbit around Jupiter The current status of the crew is unknown //The situation and the root cause are being investigated
p2
p3 I repeat //The Jupitneer Then the video just now was really...
p4 Did something terrible happen? What's going on, Yuuto?
p5 Yuuto!?
62 p1/2/3/4/5
p6 Yuuto The teacher said to hand in career aspirations at once...
p7 You still haven't written anything?
p8
63 p1 ...I'm scared
p2 Something like that happened to the Juptneer... to Kousei... I didn't think...
p3 Now I finally understand What Kousei told me...
p4
p5 Did you see it yesterday!? That was amazing, just like a movie
p6 I wonder what's going on with the Jupitneer~~~ //If something exploded like that in space...
64 p1 An expert on the internet said That the mission failed!! The lives of the crew are beyond hope
p2
p3 ...But you know He was amazing, that Amami Kousei
p4 He was smiling in that kind of a situation If it were me, I'd be crying my eyes out Idiot //Don't compare yourself to him
p5 In the end, only people who don't feel fear even in such times Would be chosen for the Jupitneer crew
65 p1 It's not true!!
p2
p3 I... It's //...
p4 Uh...! Hey, Yuuto!!
66 p1 Shit...! Why did I argue so self-importantly with him...?
p2 "Kousei, why did you say something like that back then?" "That you're scared of going to Jupiter" "In the end, only people who don't feel fear even in such times..."
p3 Isn't that the same as me in the past!? That astronauts don't feel fear...
p4 ...But Kousei was different, he was way ahead
p5 Even though he was scared... He sent that message without yielding to his fear... ...Moreover, that was
67 p1 "Kousei, you'll go to Jupiter, complete the mission successfully, and return" "It's a promise" That was the sign of the promise!!
p2 ...And yet What am I doing!!?
p3
p4 Yuuto!?
p5 Why aren't you at school!? Mom!!
p6 Kousei... I've made my decision
68-69 p1 I am Going to space!!
p2
p3 What do you mean?
p4 I want to enroll in Core Space and become an astronaut!!
p5 You know that your father Is against you becoming an astronaut, right?
p6 ...Yes, I know And that you're against it too...
p7
70 p1 After you saw... //The accident with Kousei-kun's Jupitneer Aren't you scared?
p2 I am
p3 ...But //I can't just watch anymore!!
p4 If I only watch I can't go out to save Kousei!!
p5/6
71 p1 Alright Do it
p2 Eh!!?
p3 It seems you're misunderstanding something, Yuuto I've never said that I'm against you becoming an astronaut
p4 But since you came out and said it, even though you'd never said anything *until now* It means that you've decided after thinking it through, doesn't it?
p5 U- Until now... Mom, you knew?
p6 Of course I did! I'm your mother and an astronaut's wife!!
72 p1 Do it!! If you don't, you'll regret it!!!
p2 I'll do something about your father...
p3 However!!
p4 Since you decided this yourself, from now on it's all your responsibility
p5 Get ready for it!!
p6 Yes!!
73 p1 ---Year 2079, April You haven't forgotten anything? Hmm~~~ Probably
p2 The luggage you sent off earlier has arrived to the school? It should
p3 You don't seem too sure~~~ Are you really alright? I'm fine
p4 When you come back, bring a souvenir //Sweet potatoes If I remember
p5 ...So When I are you coming back next time?
p6
74 p1 When I become an astronaut!!
p2 Good! Go on!!
p3
p4 I'm going!! nb: The first step toward Jupiter is finally made---. Next time, Yuuto heads to Core---.
