86-EIGHTY SIX, Vol. 1 (light novel)
86-EIGHTY SIX, Vol. 1 (light novel) | Asato Asato
1 post | 2 read
The San Magnolia Republic has long been under attack by unmanned weapons from the neighboring Empire. Against this onslaught, the Republic has also deployed similar weapons, narrowly avoiding great loss of life and impending disaster-or at least that's how it seemed. The truth is that it has never been possible to have no casualties. Young men and women drawn from the Republic's supposedly non-existent 86th district are organized into the "86 unit" and then ordered to pilot the "unmanned weapons" before heading to battle.

yeah I quit this real fast. I'm having less patience with certain obnoxious light novel writing tropes and this book really piled them on (guy spying on girls bathing in the first 50 pages? really?) and the character clichés are so obvious. the setting is interesting but the central conflict is a baby's first 'racism is baaaaaad' story with little nuance/real-world parallels and I can't bring myself to care.
