also like everyone else has commented, the aliens motives for bioengineering humans (and our evolution) made sense. it was just too easy for it to all have been done out of a simple desire to co-habitate… or for it to have stemmed from altruism… also makes me wonder why everyone involved in up keeping the cradle never formed a coup d’ètat of their own? the director knew of the origins of the climate crisis (that is—that the alien were behind it) so it must’ve been common knowledge to others in power in his level… were the human livestock mills just a way for them to stick their heads in the sand—instead of coming up with a way to kill the aliens??? also also, what abt the climate crisis? how did they get the ships to stop cooking the sea up and shit like
i was so expecting for this to play out like the film ‘when evil lurks’… like once that old guy started talking crazy and opened up the gates, i’m like… “you’re done….you’re done” hfhfjfjkgm also the mangaka (and the whole team behind this) did such a great job. like, i might buy a copy of this if they have an official eng translation out.
