    The MC get Google-sensei in Chapter 3.

    Well.... in the story and the plot so far that I read in the RAW didn't deal with anything serious....
    The later chapters itself had many Japanese pop-media reference...
    Like the Title of Chapter 3 is a clear parody of Super Dimensional Macross.
    The T.A.M.S. name of the protagonist body armor is clearly an amalgam of Tactical Armor (Gasaraki, an anime in 2000 by Sunrise) and Mobile Suit, or at least referencing it.
    And many others... So to fully enjoy the chapters, I think you need to be at least have some familiarity with some of obscure Japanese anime...
    Not to mention so much pun...

    Of course, not everyone is confident with this kind of comedy... this is a "either you like or hate it" type of story.
    I at least personally enjoy the banter of Google-sensei (who always speaking in a professional manner) with Carl (who always sidetracked and spewing nonsense)

    Well... Except for Ranka singing and the city transformed into a giant combat ship, I can't hardly remember the plot... I was just a elementary schooler back then when the local TV aired it...

    I just did, it isn't hard if you know some basic middle school chemistry (I guess high school nowadays? I know they had to dumb down/standardize the public school system) xP

    Looks like something fun to read in the raw, thanks for the heads up yukkuri :3 (how do I use strikethrough?)May the pun god have mercy (/end) on your soul (edit: KNTrans).

    You could add strikethrough using [*s] this [*/s] code or just click on the + sign and choose strikethrough.
    On another note, I'm locking this thread before it turns into discussion thread. You could open new discussion thread in novel discussion. :)
