I also understood that the author really likes side couples’ romances and plump, big-breasted women.

1 Astra Lost in Space KENTA SHINOHARA JUMP COMICS

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

👺

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

It’s not exactly a short story, is it?

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

👺

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

Kan-chan is sitting.

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx17

I have trouble introducing it because anything interesting would be a spoiler.

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If anything, the cover of the paperback is

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wished the anime version had been two cours, but it was well condensed into one cour, so I recommend that as well.

There are many episodes without an opening, but the opening is different every time it plays.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

I binge-read it when the anime was airing; I regret not reading it when it was serialized.

10: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>8

It was quite a topic here even during its serialization in Jump+.

It’s not coming, huh… Because there are already individual threads about things like the tsunami.

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>10

What is the Earth? I had seen a lot of threads about it, so I feel like it was a waste to read it in a slightly spoiled state.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

Spoiler

I thought it was a man, but it had a vagina too.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

I know it was referred to as Space Bossun or Space Switch.

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

“Sket Dance also had various foreshadowing elements hidden here and there.”

How the initial prophecy, which is clearly set up as a clue in Witch Watch, will turn out is intriguing.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

Suddenly started to feel a sense of closeness to the guest character.

The episode where the protagonists simultaneously appear to be aliens.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

I read it just recently too, and it was really interesting.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

Departing from Earth

A story about adventuring through various planets.

17: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I remember what the dirty Astra was doing at that time.

22: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>17

That is a one-shot that was published more than six months after Astra ended.

18: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It stood out among the Jump Plus during that time.

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When a thread is created asking for short manga recommendations, the name that often comes up is “Astra Lost in Space,” so it makes me feel like, “Here it is… my number one recommended manga that concludes within 10 volumes…”

31: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>19

Generally, Planetes and Spirit Circle are recommended together.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was only one cour, but you can tell that they struggled quite a bit with things like cutting the theme song and effectively turning it into 14 episodes due to length adjustments.

The density is unusual as a result.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

The dirty Astra managed to reach this magazine, didn’t it?

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

Earth?

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because the beautiful things are gone, the ugly ones have come out…

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

So which one did Urgar end up with, Funi or Ruka?

26: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Anime adaptation SSR

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

If there are two or more volumes of a paperback, are they not classified as a long work?

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the middle part,

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

I still like Shinohara Kenta’s works the most.

30: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

The dirty Astra was quite interesting too…

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

It ends very beautifully in this short span, and the jokes are also funny.

36: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>32

I wonder if we were parent and child in a past life (laughs).

67: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>36

What kind of feelings do you have when you say this?

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have a memory of a bothersome type of sci-fi geek popping up in the Amazon Prime review section.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

ARIES

Sounds good!

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

The adults managing Astra’s regime are truly capable individuals.

I was really good at hiding things about the Earth.

37: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Luca after growing up is incredibly subtly erotic.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

In anime that are too short for a single cour, sometimes they do the beginning and the end as an hour-long episode.

The final episode was a very good anime adaptation with original material included.

What is regrettable is that the entire scene of Kanata’s rescue during the Funi accident was completely cut.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m always suspicious, wondering if there’s some gimmick behind the fact that the names of Ozakku-san and Uro Mira’s Zakku-san are overlapping…

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was a pity that the anime skipped over some parts of the DNA verification.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like starting to consider why Polly’s sister’s comments are funny after asking, “What is the Earth?”

Don’t get unnecessarily confused.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

Only decent people come out, except for the original scum.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It’s needless to say about big women, but…

I wonder if I like the brooding type of man and a somewhat strong-willed androgynous pretty boy…

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

I started by watching the anime, but even though it falls into instant dialogue in both the original and the anime, why was Kittree so prickly towards Zack at the beginning?

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was concerned that, being a clone and knowing the truth of history, I would be erased, but that was not the case at all.

47: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>45

The police and the government were surprisingly normal.

50: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>47

I’ve never seen an attempt to reset the history of conflicts and start a new history succeed so remarkably.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>47

I can’t hide it anymore! Not that I want to die… but I can’t keep it a secret anymore… Could you please keep quiet? Is that impossible? Then maybe I’ll just announce it.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>53

I mean, the only ones who actively concealed it were the royal family (although it’s a special zone, they aren’t particularly important)…

I feel like it was also unclear whether the higher-ups in the government knew about it.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s amazing that all the main voice actors in the anime are not chosen through auditions but are directly picked by the staff.

It’s perfectly fitting.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

In reality, it’s not surprising that Poli-nee could be welcomed as a hero, and thinking about that makes it difficult to keep it a secret.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

How old is Poli-neesama again?

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

What has Chuu made…?

52: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

The background leading to the extinction war is so incredibly harsh that the surviving generation’s hidden stories are both laughable and painful.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder why the last planet didn’t work out?

Size, perhaps?

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

Laughing at the name of the spacesuit manufacturer.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Astra is like the Earth in our sense.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s so clumsy of me to make my clone date a clone of a girl I like…

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

We

You’re getting married, right?

61: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>59

💥💥💥

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

I never thought students stranded in space would return with the truth of history.

62: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Since it was a wormhole connected to Earth in the first place, it happened to encounter the spaceship that was bounced up because it was above Earth.

It’s interesting that I’m being helped by coincidence, but there is also quite a bit of probability involved.

63: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Yummy

64: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It’s only natural that there are many exceptionally skilled members.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought there would be some trouble after returning, but there wasn’t.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

The answer to “The wire is too short!” was better in the anime.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>66

It’s nice how the cover illustration was used well in collaboration.

68: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

In the OP or ED, Aries’ name is flipped, and the staff are too skilled.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s lucky that there was a spaceship drifting that could still be used even after more than 100 years.

It’s lucky that we were able to do a twin repair on the space ship of Poline, which is a similar type.

72: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

This is completely luck on my part.

>>69

Wasn’t this, in a way, inevitable?

The route I’m following

70: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The title “Kanata no Astra” has foreshadowing or a double meaning right from the start; it’s so N of the author.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

Suddenly being thrown into a wormhole in space is way too scary.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even though Zack is extremely serious, why are the items he creates oddly pop?

74: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Aries is so cute, isn't she?

Aries is so cute, isn’t she?

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was shocked to hear that the scene at the end where the teacher appears was original to the anime.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

You could say… it’s Astra from beyond!

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was quite fortunate that the broken parts could be joined together in that specific way.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

I mean, it’s already impossible! If you investigate well, you’ll understand, right?! Wasn’t that the case?

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the way this author depicts girls as oddly silly and sexy.

81: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

The classic element of deciding the Anutimetadaibomomo again at the climax of episode 1 is also good.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

All the female members have big butts.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

The captain and Takeuchi-kun particularly liked it.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

The brand name of the spacesuit is a terrible game.
