Synopsis: Justy Ueki Tylor is an aimless young man who decides to join the United Planets Space Force (UPSF) because he thinks he can ride out a cushy desk job and then collect a pension for the rest of his life. His timing is terrible as it appears the UPSF is heading for space war with the Raalgon Empire. It appears luck is on his side when he gets assigned to the military pension office until he delivers a pension to a bed-ridden former admiral who is being held hostage by terrorists! Tylor somehow foils the terrorists plot despite or possibly because of his blundering headlong into the situation. He gets promoted to ship's Captain as a reward even though he has absolutely no qualifications or experience. The ship is the decrepit old destroyer the Soyokaze and is filled with a crew of derelict soldiers considered to be at the bottom rung in the UPSF.
Jusy Ueki Tylor is an aimless youth without a purpose in life |
From left: Emi and Yumi Hanner, Kojiro Sakai, Kyung Kim, Makoto Yamamoto, Captain Tylor, Yuriko Star, Harold Katori, Sgt. Cryborne, Lt. Andressen, Nurse Harumi, and Dr. Kitaguchi |
- First Officer Lt. Commander Makoto Yamamoto is strait-laced, determined, and completely inept. He's a career military man who dreams of becoming captain one day, but doesn't have the smarts to pull it off. Torn between his duty to follow the military chain of command to the letter by supporting the Captain's wacky decisions and his need to blow the whistle on Tylor's disregard for protocol, Yamamoto is perpetually chasing his own tail.
- Lt. Commander Yuriko Star is another upright military officer and she's not afraid to call out her Captain for breaking the rules. He's a constant source of aggravation for her and she's always trying to restore order to the Soyokaze. It doesn't help that Tylor finds her attractive and seems to ignore her reprimands.
- First Lt. Kyung Kim is the communications officer of the Soyokaze and preoccupied with her good looks. Regardless she proves to be a versatile crew member able to handle unexpected situations. She doesn't know what to make of the new Captain and usually doesn't take him too seriously.
- First Lt. Harold Katori is the ship's navigator and cool under pressure. He's a very centered individual who takes in stride all of the new Captain's quirks.
- Emi and Yumi Hanner are the daughters of the admiral Tylor saved and are hopelessly devout to their Captain. They followed him into the UPSF and are endlessly enthusiastic. The pair are very cute, but inexperienced.
- Second Lt. Kojiro Sakai loves his space fighter more than anything else in the universe and spends countless hours polishing it. He's a total hot-head and gets into arguments with the marines stationed on board. He's also very awkward around women.
- First Lt. Andressen leads the marines on the Soyokaze and he is a rough man of action. He's not afraid to buck command and engineers the first mutiny against Tylor.
- Master Sergeant Cryborne is a tough customer and the scars on his face are a testament to his iron will. He's as insubordinate as they come and earned his place on the Soyokaze.
- Naval Surgeon Kitaguchi is a complete drunk and only a competent physician when he's inebriated.
- Staff Sergeant Harumi is assigned to the Soyokaze and makes an immediate splash due to her fetching good looks. Every man aboard is instantly smitten with the new doctor's assistant and makes up some excuse to see the nurse. What is her daring secret and how does it involve the Captain?
The destroyer Soyokaze (yes, the flag waves in space) |
The Empress Azalyn rules over the war-like Raalgon yet privately mourns her father's passing and yearns to recapture her lost childhood |
The Captain of the Soyokaze is not your typical ship's captain |
One of the marines wears a hockey mask and is named Jason...wait a minute! |
The ship's doctor is a raging alcoholic (although he does perform better when drunk) |
The crew of the Soyokaze support their Captain in his time of need |
Shia Has - because alien space-faring races wear bikinis |
Let's go! |
