Strike Witches: 1937 Fuso Sea Incident

It has been nearly twenty years since the last Great War, and while smaller skirmishes are still taking place across the world, peace is mostly the norm. In the Fuso Empire, Sakamoto Mio is about to join the war effort against the Neuroi alien invaders. She will have to distinguish herself among the other hardworking cadets if she is to become a full-fledged Strike Witch. Soon, she will have the chance to prove herself in battle, as the Neuroi launch their latest brutal attack.

BAND OF SISTERS It’s 1938, and things are looking bleak for humanity. The discovery that the alien Neuroi have a vulnerable “core” gave hope to soldiers and citizens alike, but there is no clear plan to push back the Neuroi’s relentless advance. In the meantime, a new threat emerges when the giant “Mountain” Neuroi begins to cross the Fuso Sea, threatening the heart of the Empire itself. Forced into a stalemate an a grinding war of attrition, the Witches develop a desperate plan that hinges on two things: the cooperation of the Fuso Imperial Navy, and Mio Sakamoto’s Magic Eye. Read on for the stunning conclusion of the “Fuso Sea Incident”, a major turning point in the war against the Neuroi–and the lives of Mio and the rest of the Strike Witches!
