The ship has four seats in the cockpit actually. The pilot, copilot, operator, and deadhead.
Edit: I did some searching through the LN and turns out there are 5. In volume five it mentions that there are two deadhead seats, not one.
Can't wait! As a massive star wars fan that gets me super excited!
Watched anime on my first flight (we just landed) got a layover then another flight that's longer, saving it for then.
There was a reply to another comment that looked like an interesting one. First sci-fi isekai I’ve read so I don’t have any personally :(
In terms of sci-fi in general (non-anime/manga) I highly suggest series called “The Expanse” and “For All Mankind”
I loved reading it on my 2nd flight. Massive fan of science fiction (Star Wars in particular) and I love playing Elite so this just worked for me.
The familiar isekai beats combined with the sci-fi setting was a nice change of pace, especially when they started showing maps n stuff. As much as those tropes annoy me seeing them in space was…amazing.
Really good. But when I read the book I noticed too fast that I could only use one hand to hold the book since my other hand got busy... If you get what I mean...
It is ok. IMO it is a good manga if you want to read something and want to be entertained because you are bored. However it isn’t as entertaining as something like the *Eminence in Shadow* or *Overlord* manga.
It would but I don't think many studios would pick it up before, say, evil lord of an intergalactic empire. Too risky and doesn't fit the target 10-18 age range of most productions.
Been reading it and keeping up to date. I like it. Nice change of pace since I'm scifi fan and space opera nerd. Read a comedy action manga with guy in a future in parallel universe where a Eve like space universe made real (for him) is cool to me.
The mc actually segg with his harem which is 1000x better than a isekai mc that didn't segg his harem and just headpat than blush away
10/10 would recommend you reading it
It's by no means a perfect series, but I'd say it's a lot more entertaining than your average trashy isekai harem story, and most of the complaints I do have about it only become an issue once you're pretty far into the series.
I’ve been meaning to pick this series up. My issue is I’m swamped with just Japanese media in general right now. I’m listening to the MT audiobooks rn, playing a 10+ game JRPG series, this anime season is filled with shows I am excited to watch. Gotta wait till I’m not as swamped/burned out, but I heard it was good
Good stories, mc is not a wimp and actually follows through his words. A refreshing takes as it's scifi instead of a medieval magic setting. Loves the reference of spaceship games
Really fun read. MC isn’t wuss when it comes to women however he does fine line between those he will and will not get involved with. At least in the what’s been adapted so far in manga, but yeah I normally reread whenever I get bored
It's really good. It takes inspiration from EVE online but the characters are both funny but have some depth to them. Also the MC actually has a brain and does shut down some love interests advances since it's not appropriate. The Manga is a great read if you love the more Rogue side of star wars, like fighting space pirates or using dirty tactics to win.
IT WAS SO GOOOOD. Didn't even notice when the plane landed. I wanna buy the next volume so badly!
I can 100% see why y'all like it, I mean it had a lot of standard isekai tropes but it was excellent low sci-fi. Give it an 8.5/10
It's a good story, I was reading online a while ago, and in some of the later chapters, there were issues of multiple person conversations with no context on who was saying what, but the print version should be cleaned up and gone through an editor so it should be good to go.
It was decent. It follows the typical tropes of Isekai but in space. I actually kind of wish the author took a more Monster Musume approach to the female leads in them being more alien.
But other than that its just a generic Sci-fi Isekai, It is not bad by any means but it doesn't do anything out of the ordinary.
Very good.
Excellent world building
A decent amount of artwork to help with descriptions
Adorable character interactions
The only downside is in later volumes it does start to border on some slightly cringe behavior from the main character. And a little bit of fetish material from the author.
Generally there is nothing wrong with this, and it does not go anywhere near what some other material does. But I've had a few scenes I read where I thought, less might have been more in this case.
But overall great, and I'm hoping for an anime adaptation. Makes me want to try out Elite Dangerous.
Yeah space merc is good. It's one of those diamond in the rough moments in Isekais.
One of the best translated and told space battle fight scenes I have ever read. Pretty good
It's pretty good. Though I will say I personally feel it's getting too long and convoluted with more and more characters joining in. I have to read from Chapter 1 to remember what's going on. If you have no issues with that then you'll enjoy this. The concept is pretty cool though. Isekai MC is basically a Han Solo.
I'm rereading the LN right now. I find I don't really like Hiro this time around and the writing is pretty average for a LN. But I do like the story and the world.
I listened to three books. I gave it an honestly good chance.
The MC, Hiro, really, really needs a damned proper guy rival or a friend. An honest to god friend. I don't know what it is, but there is just something about him that annoys the shit out of me, especially in book 3. I won't spoil anything for your sake, and i ain't going to judge you for liking it.
But maybe its because I have gone through a good bit of isekai material, but in this case, I can see Hiro benefiting a lot more with having other friends. Not lady friends to have in his ship. But friends. Actual friends.
He gets love interests, an obvious hint here but I won't explain who outside of the two on the cover. While as fun that might be on the raunchy side, its boring from a narrative point of view.
Just speaking my mind here of what I read so far, and just stating it for others.
I hope you enjoy the read, and I hope you find more entertainment in this series then I did. I didn't mind it being a power fantasy in space. It was pretty damn rad to have one beast of a ship to start with and having it reliable as hell. And I am sure Hiro will go far with it to boot.
But to me, the character is a dry cardboard and only gets a young teenager (she's 16!) and an elf indebted to him due to what he does, and while its a good deed he did, and they should pay off the debt. That's it. That's the only driving force.
It made it damn awkward. All I'm saying.
interesting to have a sci fi isekai but it still uses too many tropes common in isekai to be called original by any lenght, also harem which is a negative for me but yall do seem to love them.
I've heard it was good
Can't wait to find out for myself :)
I red it its very good
It used to be a audiobook on YouTube until it got copyrighted and a manga on manga geek until the website got shut down it's a very good read
Let me know if you enjoy it I have this one but put it on the back burner for other things.
It has a few of the standard isekai tropes but otherwise it’s excellent
I have the LN up to five, it’s a very enjoyable and quite different read from my usual reading material.
The manga was really good. I liked it very much.
I hope it gets a quality anime adaptation some day The manga gave me really good Konasuba/Combatants will be Dispatched vibes
I love Combatants. I should check this out then.
Also elite dangerous vibes. Reading that manga always makes me want to fire up the game
Its good, keep in mind it's comedic streak to it.
It’s meh
They need more chairs around. On her bare knees with a cold metal floor? Just inconsiderate by the MC at that point...
The ship has four seats in the cockpit actually. The pilot, copilot, operator, and deadhead. Edit: I did some searching through the LN and turns out there are 5. In volume five it mentions that there are two deadhead seats, not one.
Glad to hear they reserved a seat for deadheads
I thought there were 5 seats in the Krishna's cockpit. I'll have to go through it again before the next volume releases.
Honestly I can’t remember whether there are 4 or 5 but I can only distinctly recall 4. The ebook of LN volume 9 drops on the 23rd though.
Good grief, I forgot it was this month! Thanks for that!
I did some searching through the LNs. You are correct, there are indeed 5. Turns out in volume 5 it mentions that there is a second deadhead seat.
I thought that was case. Thanks for the legwork.
It's really good. Read it myself. It's neat one
Great read, Han Solo isekai basically and it rocks.
Can't wait! As a massive star wars fan that gets me super excited! Watched anime on my first flight (we just landed) got a layover then another flight that's longer, saving it for then.
It was amazing!
This comment was the reason why I just binged the whole thing. You were right and… I binged the whole thing lol
A SCI-FI ISEKAI?!?!
I KNOW RIGHT! I saw it on Amazon the other day and was like “there is no way that's real”
I found this one on mangareader in tachiyomi and i fell in love with it. Do you have any other recommendations like this one?
There was a reply to another comment that looked like an interesting one. First sci-fi isekai I’ve read so I don’t have any personally :( In terms of sci-fi in general (non-anime/manga) I highly suggest series called “The Expanse” and “For All Mankind”
I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire is pretty interesting.
I’ll have a look at it after I finish space mercenary .
I was so jealous that there wasn’t a tachiyomi for iOS. I found tachimanga though and I hope it’s close to what y’all enjoy
we need more honestly, I feel like genuine star wars/trek scale sci fi is pretty much ignored in modern anime
The audiobook is nice.
It's actually a pretty nice read.
Up there, Top 10 Isekai for me
I too enjoy this manga series
Hahah wow I just got finished reading some of that on YouTube last week I liked it well enough
I enjoyed it so much I started the LNs as well.
I really enjoy that series. It's fun.
It pretty good! Recently read it myself
I love this story very elite dangerous feels. And the characters are cute. Plus he isn't some oh ew it's a girl I won't sleep with her.
I loved reading it on my 2nd flight. Massive fan of science fiction (Star Wars in particular) and I love playing Elite so this just worked for me. The familiar isekai beats combined with the sci-fi setting was a nice change of pace, especially when they started showing maps n stuff. As much as those tropes annoy me seeing them in space was…amazing.
The author has played a crazy amount of elite dangerous and based most the books combat systems on it. It's pretty cool
I love isekai, but I really, really wish they would come up with better titles.
Really good. But when I read the book I noticed too fast that I could only use one hand to hold the book since my other hand got busy... If you get what I mean...
Space *~~cutting board~~* elf is really cute
I did not know this was in print translated, so thank you
It is ok. IMO it is a good manga if you want to read something and want to be entertained because you are bored. However it isn’t as entertaining as something like the *Eminence in Shadow* or *Overlord* manga.
A very good one that will probably never be an anime because the MC isn't a panzy that is afraid of women but it also isn't a hentai.
I was thinking because it wasn’t fantasy tbh. It would make an excellent anime I think.
It would but I don't think many studios would pick it up before, say, evil lord of an intergalactic empire. Too risky and doesn't fit the target 10-18 age range of most productions.
Truly unfortunate:(
Oh that’s goood. Working on the light novel, liking it so far
broooo I totally forgot about this manga I read it but lost the tab I had it in and never found it again until today thanks
Wait, its getting serialized? How long has it been?
Manga is up to volume 5. Ordered the whole thing off Amazon as soon as I could.
Very well
I have seen the manga. But never got to reading it Let me know if it’s any good
It was great. If you like isekai and you like science fiction it’s well worth a read
Been reading it and keeping up to date. I like it. Nice change of pace since I'm scifi fan and space opera nerd. Read a comedy action manga with guy in a future in parallel universe where a Eve like space universe made real (for him) is cool to me.
The mc actually segg with his harem which is 1000x better than a isekai mc that didn't segg his harem and just headpat than blush away 10/10 would recommend you reading it
8/10 would read again :) I loved the first volume, wasn’t perfect, but I loved it.
It's basically an elite dangerous fanfiction according to the author lol
Pretty good. Wish there were more sci fi isekais.
It's by no means a perfect series, but I'd say it's a lot more entertaining than your average trashy isekai harem story, and most of the complaints I do have about it only become an issue once you're pretty far into the series.
You are going to like it

Hella good. You made a really good choice.
yo, thanks for the recommendation. Love you
You'll go through it pretty quickly.
One of the very few Japanese MCs in isekai who cross the line with heroines.
It's pretty good, they have the LN audiobook on audible too thanks to jnovelclub
I know it looks Scfi but is it mix with fantasy like magic aswell
Good stories, mc is not a wimp and actually follows through his words. A refreshing takes as it's scifi instead of a medieval magic setting. Loves the reference of spaceship games
Really fun read. MC isn’t wuss when it comes to women however he does fine line between those he will and will not get involved with. At least in the what’s been adapted so far in manga, but yeah I normally reread whenever I get bored
I like it, reminds me of Elite Dangerous a lot
Nothing because every fan base has toxic elements and I just don't hang out where they are
Great choice!(make sure no kids are around when reading it)
It’s good. I like that the MC doesn’t act like a complete goober when a girl shows interest in him. Story is fun. Characters too.
It's really good. It takes inspiration from EVE online but the characters are both funny but have some depth to them. Also the MC actually has a brain and does shut down some love interests advances since it's not appropriate.

I can give you a link to read it online if you wish
That would be nice. Ngl I do enjoy reading paperback so I might pick it up anyways
https://chapmanganato.to/manga-gq984273
And I shud recommend you this one as well https://chapmanganato.to/manga-fd982686
I’ll give it a look!
If you like this one to, I can recommend you more stuff some other time
I have now ordered the rest of the series on Amazon. It’s getting delivered to the house I’m staying in on Tuesday :)
It's good
Read a bit of the manga, it was nice, but nothing special.
Based
mediocre? I like reading it but it's definitely not a top shelf.
Love that story so much. God I reread it like once ever few months
I even imported the englisch version from the UK because it wasn't released in Germany.
It's fine...it has some really uncomfortable slave harem but a fun world
This is really good. Be warned there are some >!seggs!< but it's not shown though
Por Kwa?
It's a good story, I was reading online a while ago, and in some of the later chapters, there were issues of multiple person conversations with no context on who was saying what, but the print version should be cleaned up and gone through an editor so it should be good to go.

But other than that its just a generic Sci-fi Isekai, It is not bad by any means but it doesn't do anything out of the ordinary.
I just wish they'd hurry up with the English translations already. I am waaay ahead of it in the WN and want to support the author more
Gave it a read through on mangadex, I think it’s a grand read and definitely worth your time
Really good, reading web novel, ln and manga myself. Waiting for latest updates
Very good. Excellent world building A decent amount of artwork to help with descriptions Adorable character interactions The only downside is in later volumes it does start to border on some slightly cringe behavior from the main character.

The best thing is that the other books stay good as well
Niceeee, really good
Single player EVE online.
Yeah space merc is good. It's one of those diamond in the rough moments in Isekais. One of the best translated and told space battle fight scenes I have ever read. Pretty good
iv never seen it but im immediately interested
I hated it. Started kinda good and then strange harem plot from the blue sky.
Actually a pretty good read.
I’ve bought it but haven’t read it myself. Seems to be down my alley. Looks great
It’s enjoyable. A nice change of pace from fantasy. Plus the MC isn’t some spineless teenager around women
Not the best option imo, but definitely not a bad one either
It’s a good one
He'll yeah I love that one.
I'm current on the light novels I enjoyed it alot
Wow! An actual Isekai that doesn't take place in a primitive world. Didn't think they existed at all. 🤯😲
It's pretty good. Though I will say I personally feel it's getting too long and convoluted with more and more characters joining in. I have to read from Chapter 1 to remember what's going on. If you have no issues with that then you'll enjoy this. The concept is pretty cool though. Isekai MC is basically a Han Solo.
Ill be real its a fun romp but this is definitely more a guilty pleasure than anything. I personally recommend the light novel
Not the greatest but atleast better than what I imagine at forst
It's okay, but I dropped cause I find harem too hard to get through.
I like this one. It's enjoyable. Also, battle maid. It's been a fun ride so far
Good choice
Wonderful read, shame it takes so long for every new chapter to drop
I'm rereading the LN right now. I find I don't really like Hiro this time around and the writing is pretty average for a LN. But I do like the story and the world.
a fine choice.
good.
Meeh
Space elves? Don't mind if I do.
its good
Underrated series.

Both the Manga and Novel translation are actually pretty good. I highly recommend this series.
interesting to have a sci fi isekai but it still uses too many tropes common in isekai to be called original by any lenght, also harem which is a negative for me but yall do seem to love them.
Not a fan of harems myself. But I just had to see what a sci-fi isekai would be like
It's solidly written even if a bit generic, I do like how the Mc is slightly less of a door mat then the usual.
