Just looking at how swole that thing is was enough for me to think that things will be harder than he'd want it to be. He probably should've jumped with the bigger gun.
Kurono's doing a rather good job to survive for this long but he shouldn't get cocky about the suspiciously open opportunity since the thing has wings. It might look like they're made for gliding but they're wings anyway.
I guess it is a solo mission, although the aliene this time doesn't look too scary, but who knows, that might just be another shrimp wasting time until the big bad boss comes out.
