If the solution behind the intergalactic space war really is as simple as the Alliance not even considering that maybe they could have just left the space snails alone, I will be supremely disappointed.

Volume Count: 11 (ongoing) Takehiko Inoue made his name in the 90′s with Slam Dunk, the hugely popular basketball manga.
