Candidate for Goddess



Candidate for Goddess by Sugisaki Yukiru is one of those mangas that whenever I get to the last chapter and realize it was dropped by the author I cry my eyes out TT-TT. This in fact might be one of the reasons why I stopped reading D.N. Angel (but that was a pretty good manga as well - just a bit cliché); later learning that it was the reason behind Candidate for Goddess' early end. Even with no real ending in sight this manga was a good read and I reread it often only to cry once more when I get to the last chapter. I hope one day Sugisaki Yukiru will finish it... but I doubt it. 

Genres: Action, Adventure, Drama, Mecha, Sci-fi, Seinen 

Summary: 

It is the year 4088. It has been over one thousand years since the Crisis of Systems (Lost Property), which resulted in the destruction of four planetary systems, leaving only a single inhabitable planet, Zion. Mankind is forced to live in space colonies, since that one planet is constantly being invaded by alien life forms that have come to be known as Victim.

To stop the aliens and to allow people to land on Zion, mankind has developed the astronomical humanoid weapons, Ingrids, also known as Goddesses. G.O.A. (Goddess Operation Academy) is a school dedicated to the training of young men to pilot these Ingrids ...

Please do not forget this manga was indeed dropped*
