Kusarian Jump Gates

The Kusari scientists don't have Valhalla 1

That didn't stop Gallia. :P

Kishiro basically owns the optronics business in pretty much all of Sirius. They are doing more ship construction, but with pre-existing ship designs, not those of their own design. They are the primary shipper of H-fuel to all the Houses.

Anyways, Kishiro is hardly "innocent". "Nicer" does not mean "nice", and I imagine those working for Kishiro can be as cut-throat as anyone else. Though I still say that IC has the title of most devious businesspeople.

Doesn't Kishiro also manufacture most of the Gas Miners for Sirius, or at least those used by the GMG?

As to Osaka, that doesn't make sense. If you read the rumors, it's scheduled for an "accidental" explosion when the Blood Dragons attack at some point (like they do... all the time) with a major insurance claim according to rumor. Sapporo is also planned to be an Osaka v2.0, so I imagine money is going to be going that way.

Plus don't forget a bunch of the Chugoku gate's reason to exist is to remove those pesky Dragons.
