| We can see the excellent work of the staffs from the 48-minute episode..(I have to say cute girls really attract my interests.) It is obviously that Tappei Nagatsuki is a good writer.Although it’s the first time he writes the script of an original anime,I still expect the development of the story very much.There are many animations of aerial combat in Episode 1 .How to describe them……I have to say they are average,I mean,they don’t have a refreshing feel.In addition,bgm can’t rock me.Maybe this anime’s major part is girls(?) Well...that’s ok . Another lots of confusing plots like :what is Walküre,what is pillar,etc.We need time to work out these problems.I am considerably interested in where it goes.Excited to see what direction this will head. |

| Well, something is that despite lasting around 46 mins, I didn't get bored. That's a good thing. Thanks to this format, a lot has already been established in this first episode. The story doesn't seem to be anything new, same thing about Earth being threated by weird creatures, yeah... As for the characters, the fact that they're a bunch of cute girls bothers me a bit because they don't fit the setting, but I'll try not to pay attention to that issue. Claudia annoyed me quite a lot in this episode, just too edgy, plus I have an issue with her voice (it doesn't fit her face). But at the end she already received some development, so I'm looking forward to see more. Miyako is pretty fun and cute, but she's just your generic genki girl. She particularly reminds me of Hajime from Gatchaman Crowds. Azuzu is probably my favorite for now, I'm not that fond of her biggest tsundere antics but for the rest, she's very fun and quite interesting. However that's really not the personality I expected her to have based on the picture, she gives me ojosama/yandere vibes but it's actually not at all what she is. And finally, Sonoka... Typical cute shy girl. At least the fact that she's very reckless in battle makes her a bit more interesting than the other characters her type. Overall I don't really know what to think yet. It looks very average, but some aspects are intriguing. I'll give it a chance. |

fuckinmyname said: i do agree here honestly Kouya no Kotobuki was way better than this Strike Witches-wanna-be anime the characters in Kotobuki were OK in my book and the aircraft vs. aircraft fights were way interesting to watch than aircraft fighting some monsters in the sky it just reminds of Kotobuki's rival anime of Winter 2019 i'm talking about Girly Air Force but Mizushima's directing of Kotobuki made the latter anime lose it's charm for thatTirinchas said: I wish Kouya no Kotobuki Hikoutai had looked like this. kotobuki is way more more more better than this show for sure,and tsutomu-san will cry see this show,splitfire or stuka is better than that great war aircraft,if the creator of this show want to show cute mixed with cool of military aspect,the only good thing from this show is only the cute character design and good dialog,the rest is under 6 of 10 |

| Nice!! Starting with a double lenght episode! And a great one also. Can´t wait for next epi |
| Idk if its just me but I fucking loved this first episode. The op fire as fuck too |
| Putting aside whether it was proper good nor not - since finding the objective in the midst of subjectivity is futile anyway - I enjoyed it. It's a rehashed Strike Witches formula sprinkled with some herbs o' tweaking to keep it fresh and distinct from its roots. And it's an original production, so hopefully there's going to be a proper ending instead of the usual "for further development, buy LN/manga and see for yourself". "Fun things are fun", as Yui used to say, so I ain't gotta explain shit. 4/5, 'twas fun. |

| I don't know if I was not in the good mood but I'm really disapponted. I still waiting a show like GuP or Hafuri where girls pilot plane but here, we have a war against magic monsters. Ok why not. I will try de watch and make my own opinion. First minute, jets are ugly and when Odin appears, Jets are really detailled. What's happended ? We are in war time and you have that idiot who can't stop joking and made mistake about her missiles... Why can't she be serious during fight ? And she's not the only one who is like that. Even adult military jet pilots keep joking in mission (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ Will probably drop it. War and monsters ruin all that anime. |

| The girls were cute I guess, though it's pretty hilarious if you compare the male and female character designs. It makes them look like they're from completely from different shows. I'll probably forget about this show after another week or so. |

Applying critical thinking to a show about cute girls being cute and deadly is bound to yield disappointment. Not to mention if they really acted all stiff and properly military-like, it'd be such a snoozefest. It's probably just not your cup of tea, and there's no need to justify it (which sounds more like an excuse than a legit reason). To each their own :) |

| Cast seems like it will deliver some solid fun and I have some hope for a plot to actually appear, so I'll stick with this for at least a few episodes. The double-length premiere was a good choice, since without addition cast chemistry development that the extra time allowed it would have been a pretty flat start. FullmetalAlias said: Sora no Woto. Coincidentally also a show with a military theme (although much more of a slice of life focus) I liked Silver Spoon quite a bit; if you haven't watched it give it a try. |
| Every day you can read a book or watch some anime is a good day! |

I don't ask them to be always serious. In "slice of life part" they could act like every teenagers girls, joking with friends, go out with them. But in a fight which could be the end of the world... Be a little serious and don't make mistakes. About budget restriction. Budget restriction from the start of the show and just for the first 10min ? I could understand if it was episode 04 of 05 but for a 45min episode (they got money to made a 45 minute episode). Something weird here. |

uncleqrow said: Daisan Hikou Shoujyotai from SHIROBAKO eh, anyone? All with the pillars and stuff (minus the cold war era jets of course). I wonder if the plot will took a Yuuki Yuuna route , since this do have the simiiar vibes to the later. Holy shit I thought I'm the only one who noticed the similarities! Not here for the lolis this time but for that three stooges Sugita-Nakamura-Kajita trio. |
 |
| Looks like a mix between Muv-Luv Alternative, Girly Air Force & Kouya no Kotobuki Hikoutai... It was a really bad first episode. |
| Interesting start, I'll continue this one. uncleqrow said: Daisan Hikou Shoujyotai from SHIROBAKO eh, anyone? All with the pillars and stuff (minus the cold war era jets of course). Damn, that's what I initially thought of by just watching the first 5 minutes |
| Pretty decent start to a show. Girls are pretty cute too. |
 |
| Sugita, Nakamura, and Kajita Mafia all together has to be the best inside joke I've ever seen. Guess I'll have to see this anime to the end now. |

| seems decent think ill enjoy this more than Girly Air Force funny to get two shows related to planes in one season , characterization of claudy looks promsing so hopefully they do the rest of the characters right,sugita can't die damnit. only issue is the silly usage of old ass planes regardless of it being blessed by the gods |
 |
| This didn't need to be 47-minutes long. Incredibly boring. |
| It started really mediocre, I wanted to give it a 5. Later, after all of the main characters were introduced, and when there were more interactions, like 15 - 20 minutes and above, it got way better. It really is a very solid first episode compared to the other mediocre ones I've seen (there are some exceptions of course). The characters did have some development this episode and I got to understand the characters and actually enjoy the show. If this was another anime that aired this season, like some of the ones I've seen so far, they would've not developed the character at all and I wouldn't have enjoyed it. It was a really really really good decision to make this a 48 minute episode, or it would've been bad otherwise. I don't even have to mention the animation part, it was really good just as expected (A-1 Pictures). It was good. I loved the waifu material in most of the characters, I like these characters. So cute and hot as well (don't mind my degeneracy). Looking forward to it. 7.6/10 or just 7 so far. Looking forward to it. |
 |
| I was kinda worried on this show before it premiered. It wasn't really appealing for me when I have the Fall shows on my radar. But I watched the special 50-minute episode, and I am impressed again. Another Fall 2020 anime with a good first episode. Also this is an original so I'm really excited on what secrets are to come from this show deep into the 'Ber' months. |
 |
| Claudia is very beautiful, and their Azu Miyako, and Sono are really cute, especially Miyako. It seems like Claudia loves Japan, and her smile in the last scene of this episode, was very beautiful |
 |
This is a great anime! Battle scenes are so good, the animation as well. Fighting enemies with unknown origin. But, one thing is for sure, those enemies are intelligent. I'm interested in knowing who the other Named are, and what is Odin's purpose in their world and why did he bestowed Named with such power. And why are the pillars turning to huge trees after being defeated. So interesting! |

| that was good...like a short movie (since it was 47 mins) 5/5. |
 |
| well, ill pass on this one. maybe this show was for a plane fan service. anyway this series will be liked by others but not for me. |
| Claudia is a babe and so are all the other girls. I dig this anime. It was not awful. The art an animation were very nice and clean. Ill def stick with it. |

Arcaches said: I think many of us that are watching this because of Tappei/Re:Zero are expecting it. They're building up the cuteness and lovely dovely stuff to make the delivery better, I can just [feel it happening by the third episode. The whole time I was watching it one thing crossed my mind: there IS going to be a wham episode sooner or later, I just know it! This is too cute and wholesome not to happenFrom Tappei, i was really expecting to half of the characters die in horrible ways. But it wasn't, and i think that was neccessary. Too much pureness and happiness makes me sad :( |
| Am I the only one who got bothered by their voices not fitting to the image of their characters? I feel like Miyako's voice fits more to that pink-haired girl. Azu is fine.. she's actually cute. :) Claudia is very beautiful and handsome at the same time. lol :D Her expressions reminded me of those male MC's in some anime. Love her voice too <3 Very mature~~ |
| ok, fully watched the first episode now. Claudia is a good character. And I like Miko too... happy characters are always nice to have around. |
| A 47 min episode... well it wasn't horrible but not really interesting, at least the plane part is pretty good |
