I Reincarnated as the Captain of a Battleship in a Robot Anime, but at This Rate, I’m Going to Be Assassinated

Shougo Hamagishi, an ordinary Japanese office worker, finds himself unexpectedly thrust into the world of the canceled robot anime “Trismegistus: New Order,” becoming the incompetent Lieutenant Colonel Jowain Date. With only twelve hours until the start of the anime’s first episode, he faces a dire situation: Jowain is destined to die, betrayed by his own subordinate after committing a planetary massacre.

Desperate to survive, Shougo decides to alter the original story. He manipulates events, exposes the corruption within New Balance, and eventually defects to the Rebel Army, dragging most of his crew with him. He even recruits the anime’s protagonist, Yuuki, to pilot the powerful Trismegistus, but the story quickly spirals out of control.
