This was pretty good.  I would have read more it if it was more than just a short story, too.  Too bad, though.  Nagai could have actually made a volume story out of this.  The setup sounds really interesting.  Even more so seeing how it doesn't seem to be based on our Earth.  Anyway, my bad for stalling it by working on other things, but it's here now so I hope you all enjoy it.  Until next time.  See ya!
