I'm simply surprised that it took many decades for a series like this to come out.

from starship troopers, dune, foundation, expansion, culture, startrek, dead space, alien franchise, all of these traditional style sci fi series seems to be missing from japan, to the point where the only other series i could point out with similarities is this Kodoku Experiment a small obscure series.

most sci fi that comes out of japan ether has to do with mecha, or cyberspace or or very very rarely about cyborgs/robots, and even then the settings for the cyberspace is always fantasy,
its so damn rare for a series to come out that actually has GUNS for once, and military gear, like power armor or aliens, its almost always some mecha and even then its rare in general for sci fi to come out with all the millions of urban fantasy or fantasy or historial series around, it really shows that modern japan has no hope about the future with sci fi taking an extreme backseat to all the fantasy genre around these days.

i really hope that this series doesn't get axed or anything because its like a diamond in the rough out of this modern manga landscape being oversaturated full of sports/historical/ and fantasy series

also whats interesting is that this series doesn't have some generic super power even most series which can even barely be called "sci fi" in the first place,

always devolve into some melee fights or super power garbage.

there isn't anything where no one has anime powers or anything just decisions and Maybe guns,
the only one that fits is Blame! but thats literally it.
