Arpeggio of Blue Steel Vol. 6

Book excerpt: An all-new science fiction manga epic about how the fate of humanity against alien invaders lies in the hands of one unique girl... and an unstoppable military weapon LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON Alliances and subterfuge are the order of the day!

On the other side of the world, Gunzou’s father-the 401 ’s former captain, Chihaya Shouzou–supported by the Musashi and other likeminded Fog vessels, announces a new approach for making Earth’s oceans once again safe for humanity and Fog alike, but under his authority. Gunzou has plans of his own for bringing peace to the world, if only Japan can be persuaded to go along with them...
