      Japanese Title
      "Koko wa makasete sakini ike!" O shitai shinita gari no nozomanu uchū gekokujō
      「ここは任せて先に行け!」をしたい死にたがりの望まぬ宇宙下剋上

      Publisher: TO Books

      Author: NORASIRO

      Illustrator: JOHNDEE

      Genres: Sci-fi, Adventure, Romance, Harem, Space Opera, Mecha

      Total Numbers of Volumes so Far: 3

      Synopsis:
      As expected of our captain, a masterful decisive charge!”
      The ideal death!…
      Or so it was supposed to go, but thanks to his subordinates(?), an unexpected meteoric rise! A death-wish genius officer stirs up a rags to riches space opera, opening!

      Having chuunibyou and getting NTR’d by his girlfriend made the late bloomer Ensign Nao strongly aspire to that situation of [“protecting comrades and dying heroically”]. However, contrary to expectations, in the Capital Region Guard [Coast Guard] where he was assigned, he becomes hugely active thanks to his sharp mind and the unit’s problem children(?)!

      In a desperate close combat situation where he was supposed to die a [hero’s death], his subordinates annihilate the enemy in the blink of an eye!
      When encountering space pirates, he plans to stay behind on the ship for a su*cide charge but they succeed in capturing the enemy ship due to engine failure!

      Though troubled by the demonic unfeminine executive officer and the combo of a mecha maniac and musclehead female sergeant major, one month after taking the post he earns a promotion and exceptionally becomes acting captain. What’s more, it seems he’s found favor with the princess(?)…
      A death-wish genius officer stirs up a rags to riches space opera, begins!

      Why?

      This is comedic story of one man's quest to die honorably only to fail upward into success becoming a legend in the process.
