Marginal Operation

Marginal Operation: Volume 1

Ningen

The fires of vengeance burn on...

With Arata's battle against his former employer now concluded, the situation has finally begun to stabilize. During this time, after careful deliberation, he decides to accept Miss Li's request and begins recruiting child soldiers from Thailand's slums. However, unbeknownst to Arata, while his rival company may have decided to back out for now, there are still those within it who hold a personal grudge against him, and they won't rest until they've had their revenge.

Marginal Operation: Volume 8

Good Friends,
Better Enemies...

Arata believed his travails in Thailand were over, but Kishimoto had other plans. The moment Arata let his guard down, his former colleague struck, kidnapping Hakim and Sophie. For the first time, Arata has to contend with the possibility that someone under his command might die. Will he crack or will he be able to operate effectively under such pressure?

Marginal Operation Volume 9

An Ill-Fated Encounter...

Driven insane by the loss of his daughter and the death of Hakim, Kishimoto turned on his coworker and killed him in cold blood. After this, he used Sophie to goad Arata into a final showdown at a park in Thailand. From training camp comrades to bitter adversaries, how will this confrontation end as their two paths collide?

Marginal Operation Volume 10

Pushing foreign borders...
In accordance with his sponsors' wishes, Arata finally makes a move against the Chinese army. Initially, things are going well, and he's able to recapture multiple villages without any casualties. But while it seems his momentum is unstoppable, Arata soon discovers this conflict is far more complicated than he originally thought...

Marginal Operation Volume 11

Old Paths Intertwine...

With Arata's own allies, the Burmese army, terrorizing the local population, he quickly realizes he must take care of internal affairs before focusing on the Chinese. He works to save the local villagers from their own government, with his efforts eventually leading him to Yangon. He not only meets the UN peacekeeping team being detained there, but finds himself in an unexpected reunion as well...

Marginal Operation: Volume 12

The battle in Myanmar rages on fiercer than ever before. China has deployed their helicopters and drones, while Arata’s allies, the Burmese Army, turn out to be far less reliable than he'd hoped. It will take the full extent of his considerable wit to continue winning his battles and keeping his kids alive. Fortunately, by rescuing the nearby villagers from their own government's tyranny, he may have inadvertently created the perfect strategic opportunity for himself.

Marginal Operation Volume 13

Going on the Offensive...

With the Chinese Army presenting an overwhelming difference in firepower to his own forces, Arata employs guerrilla tactics to successfully take out a key refueling base. However, this enrages the Chinese Army more than expected, leading to an air strike against Camp Hakim in retaliation. With the Burmese Army still disorganized and his sponsors unwilling to lend further aid, the only person Arata can rely on to get them out of this mess is himself.

Marginal Operation Volume 14

Reunions abound...

Arata succeeds in securing more funds from his sponsors and is now able to procure the anti-aircraft weapons he so desperately needs. However, before he can, he encounters previous friends and enemies alike. Laying his old grudges to rest, Arata then moves forward with fighting back against China's aerial forces. No amount of victories will return the lives he's already lost, but he can't afford to stop in his tracks or risk incurring more casualties.

Marginal Operation Volume 15

The final push...

Once a former NEET, Arata Ryouta is known worldwide as the legendary mercenary leading a tiny platoon of child soldiers against the Chinese army. With only 3,000 troops under his command, he's succeeded in multiple campaigns against a force tenfold his own. Respected by his allies and reviled by his enemies, Arata has one last marginal operation to complete before his story comes to a close.
