Strike Witches

Strike Witches is a Mecha Musume series set in an alternate reality during the Second World War. The first season of Strike Witches is set in the Channel between Gallia (France) and Brittania (the United Kingdom). It revolves around Yoshika as she joins the 501st Joint Fighter Wing and gets to know the other pilots, working with them to fight back against the Neuroi invasion, and eventually reclaim Gallia. The second season (ongoing) is set in Romagna. The 501st is reactivated to reinforce the 504th JFW after the 504th suffers a catastrophic defeat in Venezia at the hands of a new, more powerful type of Neuroi.

In addition to the animated series, there are a number of other media, such as drama CDs and the talk show Starlight Stream. The Strike Witches Universe has also been expanded to include dozens of Aces outside the 501st JFW.
