Maybe the reason the younger generations have less males is because they're pretty much biologically superfluous at this point? The Honoka clone series can probably supply enough pilots for a tenth of the guardian fleet or something.

Dessel posted:My biggest problem with the series is that I have really hard time telling characters apart - It doesn't help I have a terrible name memory. Also there are apparent immortals/people who look young for ages, so pretty much the entire cast is young. Talking of that, I wonder how eternal youth would basically affect how people act, would they skip some part of maturing? I started to think about this when Izana's granny displayed her old wardrobe: Are there any particular reasons apart from working as "an official" for dropping them This is interesting in the respect that the very idea of childhood is kind of a fairly new construct as an idea to some degree. Adolescence more so. But I doubt the series will explore these questions. I'm also not sure the granny is entirely trustworthy - Where's the mother? Dead? Why? I'm just baselessly speculating she might be interested in using Izana to prolong her life. Izana is probably just a prototype that grandma is raising herself. I mean, grandma Shinatose even mentioned that the artificial wombs were needed to avoid extinction and seed the gene pool to the point that sexual reproduction was at all possible, it's unlikely that she actually had a kid with someone considering she's like one of the only 3 remaining members of the immortals and she works all the time.

Turn A posted:Well, she is resistant to Kabi, but I don't necessarily think that means she is indestructible. If it is assumed that she is similar to Tsumugi as far as repair factors are concerned, then she cannot automatically regenerate. Chimeras don't possess a true body, do they? If that's the case, then why is the Kabi resistance so important? To begin with, Kabizashis can't penetrate a placenta barrier of even 1 centimeter thick. I'm pretty sure 1 shot from a GBE will still work though if we ever need to resolve things that way.

muike posted:It could, but Nihei reuses a lot of elements from prior works in all of his manga, and they aren't all necessarily continuous. Toha Industries is in just about all of them, as far as I recall. Aside from some of the shorter one-offs, like Digimortal and the 3 or 4 page one about Space Flies or whatever.

Author's notes for the latest chapter are hilarious: "I see nothing but artificial buildings...this is a wonderful city. This book store is like a labyrinth, I feel at home."

Clarste posted:Yeah, the immortal council doesn't have immortality genes, they just undergo some medical procedure to live forever. It's implied that brain transplants to vat-grown clones is a thing.

They're plentiful enough that the only non-gauna alien contact so far was an abandoned anti-gauna weapons cache.

Tsumugi got quite a few chunks taken out of her during the battle. I'm guessing Lem is going to have a whole lot of clones of hers running around.
