Synopsis
Continues the story of Strike Witches
In 1939, the Neuroi, a mysterious alien force wielding devastating technology, threatened Earth with extinction. Their invasion obliterated nations and overwhelmed human military capabilities. In response, global powers collaborated to develop the Striker Unit, an advanced device designed to counter Neuroi technology. The young girls who operated these units, known as Witches, became humanity's last hope, harnessing enhanced magical abilities and powerful weaponry beyond the reach of ordinary humans. By 1944, teenager Yoshika Miyafuji joins the 501st Joint Fighter Wing, nicknamed the "Strike Witches." Lacking any formal training, Miyafuji must learn to cooperate with her fellow Witches. Can she gain the skills necessary to stand against the Neuroi and protect humanity?
In this installment
In the war against the Neuroi, an alien force with overwhelming technology that has spread across Europe and Africa, a new combat unit is formed. Known as the 502nd Joint Fighter Wing or the Brave Witches, this group guards the eastern front, flying over the icy landscapes of Orussia to hunt down extraterrestrial enemies. When one of their members is critically injured before arriving at the base and unable to continue fighting, her sister, Hikari Karibuchi, takes her place. Despite not possessing distinctive abilities or strong magic, Hikari aims to earn the respect of her teammates and demonstrate her worth as a Witch.
