In order to keep Chiaki more into the show, she'd have to go where Marika goes.

Riker eventually became captain of another ship, the USS Titan, at the end of ST: Nemesis; he even has his own novel series, too.

Novels can contain such things as it takes the camera to get the entirely of the awesomeness. I imagine the Miniskirt Space Pirates Light Novels can contain more Chiaki(-chan) than the TV screen can take.
Though there was an Episode with a real Captain Riker of the USS Enterprise when they had all the parallel universe Worfs around (as oppose to some future version or fake future versions of a possible Captain Riker).

Riker is awesome enough to still sparkle even when overshadowed by Picard. Though I'd question the direction for Star Trek Titan was to be a comedy. Will even called it 'The Rikers' in his proposal! That never saw the light of day, but with MoP mixing comedy with scifi, then you guys bringing up Riker... THE MEMORIES.
I totally agree that Chiaki-chan is a more enjoyable captain. But this is not her novel. Instead, she should get a Railgun-type spinoff and make that explode with parfait-powered goodness. Like how her OreImo manga is far better than Kirino.

Thing is: you know that issue of Riker becoming Captain came up within Season 4 of TNG. If not, earlier. At that point, it was obvious as to why he couldn't leave the Enterprise: it'd require him to leave the TNG cast or just end up as this... side character.

Riker could be a good cross between Kirk and Picard.
I can't class Chiaki well enough yet for that (she's by the book and yet hammy enough (acting wise) to be a Picard I guess. Picard liked acting, though he was't a ham as I recall. Kirk was more action)....though I think Jenny might qualify in that role. Intelligent and Commanding, yet also with obvious humor and flair (see her response to the Lighning 11 and her thoughts leading up to that response). Only her inexperiance shows when the Lightning 11 shots at her and she reacts in the "eww how 20th century" way when Chiaki tells her they are using just their eyes and telescope rangefinders. She won't make that mistake again, I think. Riker's only real problem was his last appearance....the final episode of Enterprise. That would have been a good episode....if it was a The Next Generation episode, or if it had been a two parter sliced with the episode it is framed within (about USS Pegasus). But it was not a good Enterprise episode because it focused on Riker....not the Enterprise and her crew. If it had been done in the 1990s as a TNG episode it would have been good as it would make you wonder what Captain Archer's speech was at the founding of the United Federation of Planets, and given a good chance of people wanting to see what happened back then...and start to a prequel series. But no....it was the end...of all those series, and was not very respectful to the show's own cast when the guest stars run away with the show.....but then that sort of stands to reason....Riker's awesome took over the show. (sorry) (and for what it is worth, the Fourth Season of Enterprise was awesome...especially the Mirrow Universe episodes....but it was far too late by then). The hope is that Marika, Chiaki, and Jenny will have a long career and perhaps a sequal series. Because there has been a serious lack of space opera style sci-fi....from any coutry, in this decade.

In that case, it would be Commander Dolittle doing a neat voice endorsement of her favorite cafe all over again. Not to mention Chiaki being the most romanced crew member in the game.
even better if this sim was made by pre-EA Bioware.

Duly noted. Dibs on Jenny Dolittle Although I wouldn't mind mahjogg mini-games as part of that dating sim. And we all know from Saki that the best mahjogg players go no-pan Quote:

Some pictures from yesterday and today Satelight's Tokyo International Anime Fair (TAF) booth and other companies. Pictures are from twitters (Satou, Mikako, Satelight) and 2ch. There were a Q&A session and also Komatsu Mikako's mini live.
Spoiler for TAF:

So I did a quick check. The one who was asking for help at the end of the novel was Gruelle, not Show. Show did appeared though. The scene reminds me of Princess Leia "Obi-wan, I need your help"
Corrected the previous post. :P
