Starship Operators

📖 SYNOPSIS

The 73rd class of cadets from Kibi's Defense University anticipates graduation after a shakedown cruise aboard the new starship "Amaterasu." Their return is disrupted by the Kingdom's declaration of war against Kibi. When their government quickly surrenders, the cadets refuse to accept defeat. They seize the "Amaterasu" and resolve to fight back.

To secure funding for their war effort, the cadets strike a deal with a galactic news network. This agreement transforms them into the subjects of a reality show, broadcasting their battles across the galaxy. While the cadets gain resources and notoriety, they face the constant danger inherent in their televised war, where every mission could be their last. The series explores themes of rebellion, sacrifice, and the ethical implications of war as entertainment.
