■ Main Characters

Subaru Aiba A boy who came to Liebe Delta from Earth to get his second-class space pilot license. His reasons for enrolling include "I wanted to get away from my nagging mother" and "I just thought I'd get my second-class license," and he doesn't seem to have much hope or determination for the future. Aiba's parents divorced when he was young, and he was raised by his mother alone, along with his younger brother Yuki. Because of this, he has a strong feeling that "I have to be strong," and has taken care of his younger brother like a father figure. However, an accident three years ago has made the relationship between the brothers strained. He doesn't have any outstanding abilities, and his grades are average. However, according to his childhood friend Aoi, "he somehow gets along with everyone," making him suitable for a mediator role. He also has a slightly showy side. Although he doesn't like arguments, he tends to accumulate frustration, and sometimes it shows in his actions. He also often speaks the truth and principles, which is a strategy for him to live his life without being able to show his true self.
・Aiba Yuki Like his older brother, Subaru, he came to Liebe Delta to obtain his second-class space pilot license. After a fight with Subaru three years ago, he was disappointed and angry to find out that his older brother, who he thought was superior to him, was no longer able to stand before him. Since then, he has been particularly rebellious towards Subaru. He lacks cooperation and is not good at expressing his emotions. He has a lone wolf personality that constantly clashes with those around him. However, he is superior in intelligence, physical strength, and sense to others, and is the top of the second-class navigation department. Later, when he was selected as a pilot for the Vital Guarder, his rare talent was fully demonstrated. Also, because he is so excellent, he finds people who are less capable than him annoying. He is also good-looking and stands out, so it seems that girls are constantly approaching him. He seems to be cold towards love, but the existence of his childhood friend Aoi is bothering him.
・Oze Ikumi A boy who was Subaru's roommate during the training for the second-class license. Although he seems a little frivolous, he is cheerful and caring, so he is the leader of the group including Subaru. He is also popular with girls because he is handsome. In the second-class navigation department, he achieved the second highest score after Yuki, and was later selected as a pilot for the Vital Guarder. He is sensitive to human relationships and has excellent insight. However, there are many things about him that are unclear. Although he comes from the Jupiter region, where there are many wealthy families, he came to Liebe Delta at his own expense. In addition, he is actually the son of a good family, but he left home and lived under the false name "Oze Ikumi" until today. This was due to the shocking event that the two of them had a forbidden love with his real sister, which led to a physical relationship, and ended with the sister's suicide. As a result, Ikumi, who became impotent, was unable to have a deep relationship with his girlfriend Kozue. Also, because he was unable to protect those he cares about, he overreacts to "people's death."
・Hosen Aoi Enrolled in Liebe Delta from Earth with the Aiba brothers. She is a childhood friend of the Aiba brothers, and the three of them have been together since they were little, living close to each other. Since the accident three years ago, she has always wanted the two of them to get along, as they have been fighting over and over again. One of the reasons she came to Liebe Delta is that she feels a bit like she has to watch over the Aiba brothers, which is a bit of a nosy attitude. She hopes to be a full-time housewife in the future, and is good at all kinds of housework. She has a bright personality, and is the mood maker of the girls' team, able to encourage and cheer up those around her even in the most depressed situations. However, because she has too strong a sense of responsibility, she sometimes seems to be overdoing it. Although she doesn't realize it herself, she is also more lonely than most people on the inside, and is afraid of being alone. She is a bit nearsighted, and cannot read the other person's expressions, so she ends up approaching them and talking to them.
・Izumi Kozue A cute, idol-type girl from the moon. Although she is concerned about her body fat, she actually has a nice body. Despite strong opposition, she left her family for the first time and came to Liebe Delta alone. During her dive vacation, when Ikumi said she wouldn't come home, she decided to stay as well. As an only child, she was doted on and raised, so she is lonely and spoiled. Although she can be a little shallow, she is honest in everything and acts according to her own thoughts. She shares her first kiss with Ikumi, but she has an amazing ability to sense when it comes to love, such as sensing that his heart is not completely directed towards her.
・Ichikawa Reiko is Aoi and Kozue's roommate who she met at Liebe Delta. She has short hair and a skinny build. Although she looks plain, she is sensitive to trends. Her hobby is collecting security items, and she wears unusually shaped items every time there is a battle. She has a strong sense of crisis and is easily depressed, and Aoi often scolds her for being dwelling on her worries. Although she is a bit cunning, such as her light-hearted exchanges with Nyx and her acceptance of points from Subaru and Ikumi, she is a very ordinary trainee. She also has a strong side, such as pointing out problems to the excited Kozue. However, after the incident in episode 18, she cannot get the memory of Ikumi blaming her out of her head, and she lives in constant fear. Later, she becomes a follower of Faina, hiding from Ikumi and taking refuge in her room.
Karen Luciola is a smart girl who lives at her own pace while collecting music chips. She has a refreshing and bright personality. She hates being disturbed by others, so she wanders around Ryvius with a sleeping bag and tent. She is a bit moody, and rarely participates in events within Ryvius. Her presence grows from the moment she begins to take an interest in Yuki. She is skilled in operating computers and has the skills to do so, making her the fifth-best pilot in the ship control department. However, this is because she is only serious about things she likes, so it is predicted that her abilities will be second only to Yuki and Ikumi. She also works as a pilot operator for the Vital Guarder. Karen has a quick mind and can always read the situation around her. She often makes sharp, personal remarks about Yuki's inner self. She gives Subaru the effective advice of "Prioritize what you want to do, and make up your mind because you don't have to work hard." This later became an important word that greatly influenced Subaru's actions. Although she started hanging out with Yuki, they are more like partners than lovers. Karen is proactive in romance, but she is never selfish, which is why they have such a close, yet distant relationship.
Nix Chaiprapat is a mischievous boy who likes to tinker with machines. He teams up with Akihiro and is always running wild. When he formed a team with Ryvius, he was put in the same room as Subaru and Ikumi. He is foul-mouthed and says what he thinks, so he is constantly fighting with those around him. He also has a childish side, only doing things that interest him. He is resentful that he was not chosen by the pilot of the Vital Guarder, who was the first to be found, and seems to dislike Subaru being on the bridge, as he considers him inferior. He is so good at using machines that he has built his own mecha, Guine, up to version 3. Perhaps due to his skills, he later built Solid in the sub-room as an assistant pilot for the Vital Guarder.
・Neiya: Sphix of the Ryvius. 12 years ago, Ange lost her life in an accident during the construction of the Via ship, and a mist-like Sphix possessed her, becoming the Neiya of today. She has innocent eyes and dislikes conflict. In fact, there is nothing underneath her metallic purple clothes. When the Liebe Delta was in danger of being crushed, the desire of 487 trainees to "not die" awakened Neiya, and the Ryvius began to activate. Since then, she has occasionally appeared on the ship and been seen by the trainees. At the beginning of the story, she was in tune with the person who expressed the strongest emotion at that time and spoke those words. However, as the Ryvius sailed, Neiya learned about the joys, anger, sorrows, and happiness of people, and began to have emotions of her own. In the final battle, she appeared before Conrad, who was only driven by personal grudges, and begged him to stop fighting. She once again plays her role as Sphix when the Ryvius departs.
・Pat Campbell His real name is Patrick Campbell. He is the son of Instructor Campbell, who died during the purge operation of the Liebe Delta. He is the mascot of the Ryvius. He carries a backpack with a light blue bear motif. He took advantage of the dive holidays of the Liebe Delta to visit his father, who was busy with work and could not come home easily. However, that was the beginning of his tragedy. After his father died, Pat was wandering around the ship with no destination in mind, but he was taken in by Yuiri and they started living together. Yuiri was like a mother to him, accompanying him to the bathroom and taking showers together. After that, he left Yuiri and was left in the care of Luxun. As a child, he was often strict with Luxun, even though he pointed out the facts. He was a bit of a spoiled child for his age, but he gradually became stronger as the Ryvius sailed. He also has a special skill(?) of being able to make sandwiches.
Faina S. Shinozaki is from Titania in the Uranus Sphere and is the granddaughter of Prime Minister Lawrence. She is a mysterious beautiful girl who follows the teachings of the Virgin Mary Arne. Although she has a pure and calm image, her heart is supported by a firm faith and she has her own religious and ethical views. She also does not share showers with the girls due to her rules. She does not like lively places such as parties. However, she also has an unexpected side to her, as she is good at making cakes. She is saved by Subaru and Ikumi when she collapses. This triggers her to gradually become closer to Subaru. After that, she works as a caretaker on the bridge and as a communications operator. Even during battle, she maintains an unhesitant and unhesitant attitude that is unthinkable by common sense, and thinks pragmatically about everything. Subaru seems unable to get used to Faina's ethical views, and she gradually distances herself from him. Then, when she decides that Subaru has violated her role, she asks Aranea, a girl who came to her for help, to assault Aoi. She also tells the dying Subaru, "You will become my past," and tries to kill him with her own hand.
・Masa Akihiro A gentle and easy-going boy who pairs up with Nix and cleans up after him. The reason he's always with Nix is ​​because "he leads them," and he's not the type to take the initiative. He gives the impression of being meticulous and always timid, but in fact he is ranked 10th in the navigation department, higher than Nix. Later, he works with Solid in the sub-room as a piloting assistant for the Vital Guarder. He thinks that Subaru is similar to himself, as he is sensitive to the atmosphere around him, and makes comments such as "Subaru is being pulled by Ikumi," and "Subaru is not that kind of character. If you push yourself too hard, you'll fail."
Eins Crawford Eins joined Zwei through a friend's introduction. Because of this, his abilities are low and he has not done anything outstanding. He does not have a sense of being an elite. He has sleepy eyes and always gives off a somewhat timid impression. Just like his appearance, he has a vague and timid personality. He often makes mistakes on the bridge, and each time he does, he lets out a pathetic shriek. He also broke down in tears when Ryvius was in danger. However, he is kind to girls and has a gentlemanly side, and when Cliff came to him, he could not hide the smile on his face.
・Carabona Ginny A large girl from the tropics. A member of the Zwei. She has a generous and kind personality, and is always natural without pretending to be someone she's not. She is a rare sensible person in the Zwei. She cares for the captain, Yuiri, and voyages with her. Also, like a girl her age, she cares about fashion. She is good at sewing, and has such a good sense of fashion that she designs and makes dresses for herself and Ran at the party. She can be a bit of an anxiety sufferer, and often gets upset over the smallest things during battle. Contrary to her physique, she also has a delicate heart.
Kreis Morate: He has a lanky appearance, doesn't say much, and doesn't stand out much, but he is a member of Zwei. Despite that, he is a mecha fetishist and has top-notch programming skills. He is also well-versed in solid programs, and it was Kreis who analyzed the gravity program and created the activation program for the Vital Guarder. His abilities were indispensable to the navigation of the Ryvius. In terms of the position of his abilities, he and Hager have a mutually beneficial relationship, and he played a part in the expulsion of Team Blue. When he looks at the solids he has built, he sometimes has an ecstatic look on his face, and it seems that the unknown bridge system was irresistible to a man with a science and math background.
Gran McDaniel Having seen his father, a military man, promoted and the limits of promotion, Gran aspired to become a Zwei in order to carry on his father's dream. Contrary to appearances, he is a hard worker and has a higher ambition than most. Perhaps due to this awareness, he quickly volunteered to be the commander and pilot of the Vital Guarder, but this was in order to escape with the lift ship in case of emergency. He instigated Son and plotted to monopolize the Vital Guarder, but was thwarted by Ikumi and the others, and his betrayal was discovered by the bridge. In addition to being punished by force from Team Blue, he was lifted into space and imprisoned in a solitary cell.
Kevin Green is a member of Zwei, characterized by his round glasses. Due to his chubby build, he tends to look older than his actual age. He is studying at Zwei in order to revive a fallen noble family. He has a serious and honest personality, but he can also be a bit proud, which is due to his family background.
Stein Heiger Heiger is always calm and collected, and never loses his sense of reason. He is the brains behind Zwei. He is a staff officer who prefers No. 2 to No. 1, and has no ambition to be the top of the ship. His ideal is a society where everything is managed in an orderly manner, and is the most efficient for him. He is often disliked as a "logicist." He can think logically and make appropriate decisions in any situation, but he is ruthless and will cut things off when he judges them unnecessary. He plotted the downfall of the Blue regime, and supported the Ikumi regime, which is close to his ideal. In terms of romance, he himself said that he has no interest in women, but this is true, and he is gay. Incidentally, Heiger's father was a subordinate of Luxun's father, and Luxun seems to unilaterally assume that Heiger is a subordinate.
- Chick-Kraat A candidate to become the next chief of a proud minority tribe, he enrolled in the military academy in the hopes of showing his high abilities. He later became Zwei. He is short and wants to get rid of his childish appearance, so he tends to be more stubborn than necessary. Although he has high individual abilities, he also lacks cooperation, and is not aware of this himself. He is spirited, proactive, and active. Even on the bridge, he often expressed his opinions on various issues. He also made advances to Carabona, who he thought had feelings for him, even during battle.
・Charlie (Good Turtleland III)
He has a blond pompadour hairstyle, is chubby, and is slow, so he is ridiculed in Zwei. He is timid and easily carried away. He was charmed by Cliff's charm, and was used by Team Blue as an informant for Zwei. His catchphrase is "That's why I said so." Charlie is the nickname given to him by Team Blue, and his real name is Good Turtleland III, a fine name. However, when Cliff was about to be captured, he risked his life to save him, and gradually his manliness increased. Even though he knew Cliff's gender, Charlie stuck to his true love, and finally won her(?) heart, and they became a lovey-dovey couple in Ryvius 1 from the middle of the story. After returning to Earth, with Cliff's help, he successfully lost weight and returned to Ryvius slimmer (with his hair still the same).
・He is a member of Brian Brab Junior Zwei, but he came to Liebe Delta because he "just happened to do it," and he lacks a policy, so he does not play an outstanding role even in emergency situations. As his playboy appearance suggests, his personality is similar, and he is a joker who changes his opinion frequently to suit those with more power. He is also a narcissist, and thinks of himself as "cool and cool." He has a low sense of elitism and is friendly, so he seemed to get along well with Subaru, who had recently joined the bridge. When it comes to Isa, he is the type who will go after his own self. During the Blue regime, he was relaxing in the officer's room occupied by Team Blue, and he had a good relationship with Michelle. However, after the collapse of the regime, he easily abandoned Michelle, and later suffered harassment from her guards.
Yuiri Bahana A beautiful girl who enrolled in Liebe Delta on a scholarship to please her adoptive parents. She is an honor student who is the top of the elite group Zwei. She is fair, serious, caring and kind, so people rely on her, and she even served as the captain of the Ryvius for a while. She also has a strong maternal instinct, and during the voyage, she played the role of a mother figure for Pat. Yuiri is beautiful and intelligent, but if there is one problem, it is her lack of fashion sense. In her casual clothes, she wears a tracksuit or overalls with appliques, which is unrefined. However, perhaps because she is an orphan, she is always considerate of others and tends to withdraw herself, which makes her a little weak. She also has a tendency to be indecisive, and perhaps because she usually acts strong, she is fragile and will break down in tears in the worst case scenario. She has a habit of playing with her bangs when she is in trouble.
Ran Luckmorde - She doesn't say much and is shy, so she gives off a cold impression, but she is kind at heart. She is a member of Zwei. She is actually the daughter of a good family, and left her hometown and came to Liebe Delta when she was forced into a political marriage. She hates to change her mind, so even though her roommates Yuily and Carabona went to the bridge in casual clothes, she was the only one who did not take off her uniform. She has a tendency to be a shotacon, and becomes active when it comes to Pat. Because of this, she is not happy about Pat becoming attached to Yuily. This is why she often makes harsh remarks about Yuily.
・Luxun Hojo The 24th head of the prestigious Hojo family. His father was a great man who served the Solar System Planet Alliance, and his brother was a fine soldier, and he wants to be like him. He served as the training squad leader on Liebe Delta, and since no one tried to stop him on Ryvius, he was appointed captain, but he retired without a word during the Blue regime. Although he is technically a member of Zwei, he has almost no ability to put together a solid, and from his panic in emergencies and his ability to judge situations, he can be said to be a burden on the bridge. A typical example of someone whose words and actions do not match his abilities. However, after becoming Pat's guardian, he showed his true abilities(?). Perhaps at the request of Yuiri, whom he secretly admires, he put in all his effort to protect Pat, even though he was in charge of serving food and cleaning the toilets. His appearance of sticking to his pride as a Zwei to the end is surprisingly full of manliness. No matter how many mistakes he makes, he is not hated for some reason because of his virtue, and he is a lovable character full of humanity, even with his pathetic and inept side.
・Airs Blue A young mafia-like boy from Hyperion, a moon of Saturn. He is the leader of Team Blue, who is silent and believes that violence is "power". He is characterized by his sharp eyes and his hair style wrapped in a bandana. His father is a high-ranking official of Hyperion. Growing up, he was shunned by his siblings, which led to his warlike personality and his dislike of being told what to do by others. From the depiction of him helping the orphaned Cliff and Michelle in the past, and beating up Son in the downtown area, it can be seen that he was a boss in a lawless area before coming to Liebe Delta. He possesses a needle gun that he stole from an agent, and it is this dangerous power that moves the inside of Ryvius. And with his fighting style that makes full use of his martial arts-like fighting techniques, he boasts the strength of Ryvius 1, and at one time he led Team Blue and rose to the top of Ryvius. However, his remarks that betrayed many trainees were exposed, and he suddenly became a pursuer. Also, since the Hyperion was destroyed, Blue lost his family and was left all alone. After that, he continued to live on the run on the ship, surviving hunger with the help of Subaru's food.
Cliff Kay looks feminine and sexy with sensual fashion, but he is actually a man. He is a transsexual, and his large breasts are the result of breast augmentation surgery. From what Doss said to Song and the others who betrayed him, we learn that he is Michelle's older brother. Cliff is also a man's name. He had seduced Charlie with the intention of using him, but when he was chased by the trainees, he risked his life to protect him, and he became attracted to him. Many men approached him because of his good looks, but as soon as they found out his gender, they all left. Among them, Charlie was the only one who loved him above all else. This awakened Cliff to true love, and he chose to live a peaceful life with Charlie.
・Fu Namchai A boy who is quick in a fight and strong, and can be called Blue's right hand man. He is from Hyperion and is related to Blue (the main family is Blue, and the branch family is Fu). He met Blue four years ago when his father brought a boy to his house, saying, "This is a request from someone who has done me a great favor." In contrast to the taciturn Blue, Fu is eloquent and eloquent. Cliff says he is "the son of a conman," and that women can fall for him in 30 minutes. He is also quick-witted, and can instantly grasp Blue's thoughts and control his subordinates. In practice, he plays the role of a commander. After the bridge was occupied, he was so persuasive that he gained the trust of "Zwei's inspector" through the ship's broadcast alone. He also holds the star role of host at parties. After the collapse of the Blue regime, he was put in a straitjacket and imprisoned, but escaped with the help of Michelle. He then joined Ikumi's supporters and became a member of the Guardians. He hated Blue until the very end.
Michelle Kay: In contrast to the sexy Cliff, she is a girl with a slender figure and a devilish charm. She seems to go beyond laughing too much and is a little angry. Even when the other members are eating, Michelle is the only one taking something like a pill, and her sadistic smile from time to time tells us about her personality. During the Blue regime, she got along well with Brian on the bridge, but was cruelly abandoned after the regime collapsed. Then, when she was held captive by the trainees, she was the most cruelly treated of the members of Team Blue. After that, she tamed the guardian with her cute behavior and escaped. In her hometown of the Saturn Sphere, Michelle had been forced to live a hard life with her brother until she was picked up by Blue, so she has a high level of ambition and hates being small. When Cliff chose to live with Charlie, Michelle called her brother a coward and cried. Later, she joined the Guardians, but was easily betrayed by the men of the Royal Guard. Because she cannot read his mind, she approaches him and talks to him.

■ Main robot items

-Arks theory This theory advocated that gravity control is possible, and was proven by Via's discovery. Some say it is based on a paper by Nikola Tesla, which was proposed by Dr. Arks of the Academy of Sciences of the Solar System Alliance and was written more than 2,000 years ago.
- Iridium System Communication relay satellites are installed everywhere in the solar system. Using them in outer space allows long-range radio communications. If destroyed, communications are blocked in the area. It is also unusable in Gedurt.
・Via
An unknown silicon-based organism discovered in Gedult in 2148. It has high intelligence and special ability to form a gravity field on its own, and it lives everywhere in Gedult. It clusters like the Earth's corals and sponges, and its shape and size range from extremely small ones that float like plankton to giant squid-shaped ones. Sphyx and Vial Gedult are also one of the Vial Gedult groups (this is why Vial Gedult is sometimes called Vial). Its thinking form is fundamentally different from human beings, a carbon-based organism, and although it has its own intelligence, communication has been considered almost impossible. However, as seen in Neya's example, there is a possibility that they can live together while understanding emotions.
- An open-air-class air-sea submarine built using the Via Via. Because it has gravity control, it can sail within Gedult. Its existence is publicly secret, and the other Via ships except Levias were experimentally operated in the Kuiper Belt (asteroid belt) outside Pluto. Hundreds of thousands of people were invested in capturing the Via collective used in this case, with 80% of them being sacrificed. A total of six ships have been constructed: the Black Levias, the Blue Imprus, the Red Dikastia, the Ash Gespenst, the Deep Green Weisheit, and the Yamabuki Diplomater, the Performance of each ship differs depending on the Via that is mounted on it. /
・Via Project
This is an epic project secretly planned by the Interplanet Alliance of the Solar System in 2159. The outline is that Via's gravity control capabilities allow them to build a spaceship using it, and with their special capabilities, they attempt to escape from the solar system with the planets. As the time interval between neutrino bursts is becoming narrower, an early plan is expected, and an early plan is desired. A few thousand years later, the second Gedurd Phenomene will occur. After several generational changes, six Via ships set out outside the solar system with Jupiter, which has become the Sun, can be said to have been successful.
- A civilian orbit platform installed in Wellsling Mars satellite orbit. Used by the Mars fleet to attack Levias. A massive meteorite was launched from a transport mass driver and attempted to shoot down Levias with enormous physical energy. /
- Security forces were formed under the administration of Guardians Ikumi to crack down on violent acts on ships. Those who regularly patrol the ships and do not listen to verbal warnings are subject to thorough iron fist sanctions. The uniforms are the same as those used by the Guards and Surveillance Officers.
・Martian sphere
Despite the fact that 50% have been sunk in Gedurt, the power within the solar system has not yet faded. In Levias, two fleets were sorted by orders at the top, causing devastating damage. In addition, the fall of a giant meteorite fired from Wellsling has caused damage to the ground axis, causing numerous refugees.
-The official name of the Mars Fleet is the Mars Sector Space Fleet. A fleet formed of command space ships and eight patrol boats. The 2nd Fleet and 6th Fleet set out for a Levias attack.
- A spacecraft built for navigation within the submarine Gedurt. With the exception of the Via ship, even the most submarine capable of the Sear 4 is at its limit.
- One of the Gestal-class submarine vessels, officially adopted by the Orbit Security Agency, which is carried by the submarine Tander Conrad. It is armed with torpedoes (Boscon-class torpedoes), and the circular part in the middle is a residential area. /
- Emergency space suits installed in various locations in the simple space suit and the Liebe Delta. They are usually packed compactly. In episode 1, Subaru and others wear this and save lives. /
- The name that Hu declared on the broadcast as the supervisory team Blue, who was keeping an eye on Zwei, who had been covering up information when he occupied the bridge. Blue was an auditor, but was in the captain's seat and essentially had the power to the bridge.
- The group was formed when Captain Yuriy, who was surveillance officer, when they regained the Zwei regime. They were tasked with surveillance of the detained team Blue, searching for the escaped Blue, and patrolling around the ship. The members recruited volunteers, but only unreliable members such as Emerson, Lillish, Johnson, and Radan gathered.
-An organisation belonging to the "Safety Assurance Board," an organisation of the Orbital Security Agency's Interplanetary Interplanetary Alliance. It is similar to the Japan Coast Guard and Transport Police within the solar system. It was established to manage the safety of space ships sailing between planets and to deal with conflicts. It is an organization separate from the military that each planet has.
- Submarines owned only by the Gestal-class submarines and Track Security Service. One of them is the submarines that Conrad rides.
- The coronaflare, which was released from the sun by Geddert Phenomen, almost covers the solar system. The inside of Geddert is a world of death where high temperatures, high pressures, and cosmic rays and plasmas fly around. Abnormal gravity is constantly occurring, and normal objects are crushed when sailing deep. Due to the influence of solar activity, its thickness is repeatedly increased and decreased. Its surface, when viewed from close, has a massive swell that can swallow a ship, but when viewed on a cosmic scale, it appears to be almost flat. Therefore, it is called the "Geddert Sea." At this stage, there is no way to remove Geddert, and humans are forced to live in symbiotically with Geddert. In addition, in the Geddert sea, the plasma strength and pressure are divided into units called sheer (depth), and the larger the number, the more an incredible environment becomes. /
・Gedurd Phenomene
In 2137, corona flares that originated from the sun suddenly erupted along the Earth's orbit, covering the entire solar system. This destroyed the southern hemisphere of Earth and killed 1.7 billion people. Since then, the southern hemisphere has been exposed to remaining corona flares, turning them into a world of death where humans cannot approach again. This phenomenon has also expanded to the entire solar system, with half of Mars and one-third of Jupiter and Uranus being taken away just like Earth. It is predicted that a second Gedurd Phenomene will occur in a few thousand years.
Gedurt protective suit Protective suit to protect yourself from plasma and spacecraft. Used when performing extra-board activities near Gedurt, where it is shallow.
・Symposing all spacecrafts and spacecraft spacecraft spacecraft. It is generally called this to distinguish it from spacecraft and spacecraft spacecraft that are used for normal navigation. The difference between ships and boats depends on the size of the hull.
- The curriculum for the voyage qualification course for the voyage license. The voyage and others received at the Liebe Delta were Class 2 licenses. The Zwei and others of the Ship Control Division receive advanced driving boats such as Riber.
- A license required to pilot a space ship or a space ship. The licenses are ranked from a Class 2 license that is sufficient to pilot a space ship to one that is capable of piloting a space ship. Although it is a Class 2 license, it is said that the average number of licenses is seven, so it is a rather difficult test.
- Sub-control Room When controlling the vital girder, a sub-solid is formed. There are 42 seats available, but the number of people used was about 20, including Knicks and Akihiro.
- A unit that represents the depth of the Siergedurd. Originally, it was used to describe the energy intensity of the inner layer of Geddurd, but it is used as it is in the same word as it is proportional to the depth commonly used. The higher the depth number, the more an incredible environment. Incidentally, in Sheer 1, it is possible to navigate normal ships and build satellite bases (Libe Delta also occasionally dives to replenish energy = dive vacation). In Sheer 2, academic exploration ships can be navigated. When Sheer 3, it becomes military or other ships. Sheer 4 cannot be navigated unless it is a military-specific submarine level (Tander, etc. on Conrad). At this time, there are no ships that can sail over Sheer 5.
- Heavy protective suits Protective suits used during extremely dangerous tasks such as Gedurd. There are thrusters everywhere. Instructor Campbell and others wore this and worked on the purging of the Liebe Delta. /
- A mysterious space that exists after Gravity Spot Shear 7. It is home to many space squids. When Levias heads towards the Uranus sphere, he learns its existence. He encounters Gespenst, who has pursued him from the Jupiter sphere, and he begins fighting here.
- A technology made possible by gravity control Via. It is controlled by solids and can only be used on Via ships and Vital Girders.
- Gravity Field Gravity field deployed by gravity control. It was mainly used as a barrier on Vier ships. Vital Garder (Einwald) used this to defeat Dikastia's final field and also counter Geist.
・Seatered by 8 spacecraft attached to the patrol boat spaceship. It is equipped with torpedoes. /
- It was worn for protection on a standard space suit lift ship. It has a cord on the chest, which leads to the aircraft's life support system in emergencies. /
・S-fix
The role of linking Via, the power source of Via and Vial Garders, with the pilot. Sphyx is also a type of Via. Each Via ship has one body. It is in the form of Vial Garders and special abilities. Vial Garders and Sphyx are also linked to the mental and physical body, and the Vial Garders are damaged or destroyed, and their functions are weakened at the same time. Also, if you link them to the pilot for a long time, you will be subject to the mental "backyard." While the backyard is shallow, you will only be able to "be wary" and "become emotionally unstable", but if you are too affected, there is a risk that you will become an addict like Gitter. In fact, every passenger on board is subject to this backyard, and there is a theory that the riots that took place at Levias, the crew's emotions, and the emotional instability of the leader were also due to the backyard.
- A giant squid-like creature that lives in the Sheer 5 or less of Space Ika Gedult. One of the Via clusters. It exists to a size of over 1,000 meters, and forms a more powerful gravity field than Via ships. Some crews of Via ships know about it and are sometimes called "cores." This space squid was once used to build Via ships, causing hundreds of thousands of lives to be sacrificed. /
- Spacebrain Linear motor car that runs through Earth. It runs up and down a tube for electromagnetic field protection. By the way, there is a direct train from the nearest station of the Aiba family to the spaceport, and in episode 1 the express train "Shibamata". In episode 26, the express train "Nissin" is the express train. /
- Teachings of Our Lady Arne The Virgin Arne is the guardian deity of Titania, worshiped in Titania in the Uranus sphere. It is closer to philosophy than religion, and has the idea that "we cannot forget the past. We have no choice but to cut off the past. With our own hands." At first glance, this may seem like a positive way of thinking, but depending on the interpretation specifications, it is a very scary teaching. In fact, Faina erases those who have become their past under this teaching. The words of prayer are "Aisha's prayer. A merciless heart. This trial gathers in the name of Maas and becomes the same as the stars."
- Solid Program A computer operation system that allows you to construct programs by combining "solids" pseudo-3D blocks containing various instructions in three dimensions. It is easy to use and highly versatile. The closer the shape of a solid is to be spherical, the more perfect it becomes.
- When the Dive Space Station supplies energy, dive into Gedurt, about Sheer 1. External work is generally prohibited during dives. In the case of the Liebe Delta, it was a long vacation.
- Interplanetary Alliance of the Solar System
Established in 2154. A joint association was established to help planetary spheres within the solar system engage in cultural and economic exchanges. The alliance is also aimed at actively tackling and dealing with all issues related to the survival of humanity. Earth is based. Saturn does not belong to them and advocates for independent autonomy, but the security is at worst. Uranus does not participate in the alliance because it has its own ethics. Neptune also belongs to the alliance, but it forms its own society.
・Zwei
A group that allows students to obtain a qualification that is one rank higher than the regular qualifications of trainees within the Liebe Delta. There are qualification tests and are a kind of elite existence. Looking at it in modern times, it is similar to the feeling of obtaining a large special license. In Levias, where there are no adults, he is responsible for maneuvering on the bridge, effectively becoming a leader. He was once occupied by Team Blue and others, but later recaptured. After reboarding Levias, he becomes a bridge personnel. It consists of 12 members, and his race and thoughts are different. By the way, Zwei means the number "2" in German. /
- Regular communication shuttle A ferry that connects Earth to other planets and satellite space stations.
- Saturn of Dione Saturn. He is attacked by Dicastia.
-The area includes Uranus, the seventh planet of the Uranus Solar System, and its satellite area. One third is covered in Gedurd, and the alliance does not participate. A poor area far from the sun. Due to the strong sense of life, the teachings of the Virgin Arne have become widely worshiped by people. Incidentally, the Fina, which allows you to keep pets (Rahula), is a proof of the privileged class.
- A spaceport located in Tokio Airport Tokyo. From here you can depart into space on Space Brain.
-The region includes Saturn, the sixth planet of the Solar System of the Saturn, and its satellites. It does not belong to the alliance and advocates its own autonomy, but its land is a lawless zone with a wide range of nations. Its security is poor, and its political system is often obscure from other planetary spheres, making it a mysterious unity.
- The official name of the needle gun is "Low Recoil Needle Gun." It fires a needle-shaped needle bullet and fatally wounds the opponent. It was owned by an operative who infiltrated the Liebe Delta during Mission Wegger. It later falls into the hands of Blue, Subaru, and Ikumi. In episode 23, Ikumi fires a fire on Subaru's shoulder. /
- A class where you can learn basic navigational qualifications at the Liebe Delta, the Class 2 Ship Control Division. If you pass the exam, you will get a Class 2 license. It's similar to what we call obtaining a motorcycle license today.
- Neutrino burst: The phenomenon of occasional neutrinos being blown up and released violently like a gust of wind during the activity of the sun. It is an extremely dangerous sign, and the interval between them is gradually narrowing.
- Neutrino. This was developed as an effective enemy means (detecting system) in Gedurt, which does not have the Pinger radar. Neutrino itself is a material that is extremely difficult to supplement, and inevitably becomes a large-scale device. Therefore, it cannot be installed unless it is a ship of a certain size. Furthermore, its accuracy is inferior to conventional radars.
- The act of separating blocks attached to the purge building body.
- Unit of distance used for navigation within the Herschel solar system.
-The satellite of Hyperion Saturn, Blue's hometown. At Blue's own discretion, he attempted to bring Levias to Hyperion, but was suddenly crushed by Imprus. By the way, since all Blue's family lived in Hyperion, he became all alone.
- A liquid metal information transmission cable that connects puppets, wire vital girders to pilot ships (lift ships and vier ships). Hundreds of puppets and wires are stretched to withstand disconnected during battle. /
Van Allen Belt Enhancement System A station launched into orbit to protect planets from Gedurd. It is built on all planets in the solar system.
- A special move with a vital, girder, and rotational opposition angle. It rotates the drill and concentrates gravity on the front. It is an extreme technique that then charges violently towards the target. In fact, the point is that it is not attacked with the drill itself. The gitters' chanting as they charge are impressive.
・A stewardess who work for space space engines such as flight attendant Space Brain. Aoiya Kozue came to Liebe Delta to obtain this qualification. Her job involves a wide range of activities, from dealing with passengers on board to cooking, laundry, and preparing meals. She also learns that she is close to a nutritionist, such as serving food with care and calories, according to the passenger's physical condition. Perhaps because the curriculum is similar to that of a real-world home economics department, many girls choose this department to become a good wife and wise mother. Aoi is one of them, aiming to become a full-time housewife. /
- When a high temperature is applied from a plasma atoms, the negatively charged electrons will pop out, and only the positively charged atomic nuclei are left. This refers to the remaining particle nuclei. Since the hydrogen atoms inside the sun are plasma-formed, it can be said that the Gedurt, which is made up of this, is also a collection of plasmas. Since electromagnetic waves are difficult to pass through within the plasma, normal communications and exploration devices cannot be used within the Gedurt.
・The Bratica Vias body. It refers to only the state in which the lift ship is separated. A name commonly used by Conrad. /
- Becquerel value The unit that represents the intensity of radioactivity. Named in 1897 by French physicist Becquerel, who discovered radioactivity from uranium. For interplanetary navigation, Graap values ​​are used.
- A system in which points are generated in proportion to the amount of work and rank and exchanged for food and supplies. Those who break rules or cause an incident will be given a penalty. During the Blue Regiment, the guards were strictly strict, and the amount of water they supply during showers was limited. Although the system was slower afterwards, when the Ikumi Regiment was once again restricted by the Gardeners and others. Bridge personnel and main members of the lift ship were also point-free and considered privileged. Points themselves are like money, and are used as gambling or as gifts for her, and are often used as a source for conflict. As a result, there were many dark transactions.
- A torpedo equipped by the Boscon-class torpedo submarine Tandel. It did not work with the Levias.
- Codename for the Mission Wegger's Rivias capture mission. To refuel, Liebe Delta, who had dived inside Gedult, pretended to be an accident, and after infiltrating deeper, he attempted to recapture Levias. However, the operation ended up failing when Levias suddenly started starting.
- The main control room on the lift ship is a room that controls the vital girder. There is a control system in the center and a real model is placed in the rear. This allows the pilots to intuitively grasp the movement of the vital girder. There are four main operator seats at the back. Initially, Gran sat in the pilot seat, but after his downfall, Ikumi, who had been in command of the battle, consistently sat in that seat. Because it is quite spacious, it was used as a party venue in episode 11.
- A small wired manipulator used to remotely operate wired exploration pods and pick up meteorite fragments. Several ships have also been deployed in the Liebe Delta for practical training.
- A human-shaped movable model to check the movement of the real model Vital, Garder, and Einwald. It traces the exact same movement as Einwald, who has advanced into space. In episode 11, he was also borrowed for a gesture competition as a party performance. Ikumi says that it was difficult to form the solid.
- The Space Qualification Training Space Station was built around the middle of Earth and Mars. Boys and girls aged 13 to 20 years old are trained here to obtain a space officer license. About 1,000 instructors and trainees together live in space. At the same time, they were also collecting and researching the plasma that makes up Gedult. The interior is home to a relocation area, a command room, a machine room, and Levias is hidden inside.
- A control carrier that transports and pilots the lift ships Vital Garder, and Einwald. The total length when the Einwald converges is 250m. It is 170m in size when it is alone. It is located below the front of the Levias, and can be separated and acted alone. Incidentally, the only one with the lift ship is the Levias, which was originally built. Many crew members of other Viar ships point out that this is a "design error." However, in reality, it is used as a large escape ship and is being used effectively.
