Synopsis

A mysterious flying threat known as ‘Zai’ have appeared. They crushed any sort of aerial military force that humans had. For the purpose of resisting against these Zai, humanity remodeled existing machines known as ‘daughters’ and those who can pilot them are known as ‘anima’. That is when she appeared. Kei Narutani met a crimson red fighting mecha and the anima who controlled it, Gripen. The story of a boy yearning for the sky and a girl who is humanity’s ace in the hole starts now.

Three Episode Impression

Kei Narutani and his childhood friend Minghua Song have taken refuge in Japan. As they are fleeing Shanghai from the Zai, they witness an aircraft fight off the threat and then promptly crash into the ocean! Kei swims over to save the pilot, and meets the mysterious “Anima” flying it, known as Gripen. Wanting to join in the fight against the Zai in any way that he can, Kei ends up working with Gripen to help her learn to properly fly.

Gripen and Kei become close as they work to protect humanity together. However, Gripen is not the only Anima in existence, as we will soon come to see... Despite being more of a military-focused anime, Girly Air Force impresses with colorful, crisp animation, especially when it comes to the Anima designs. And from episode one on, this series continues to interest us with its plot, following Kei’s path as a refugee in the midst of a war as well as Gripen’s journey as a humanized, but hated, creation. Girly Air Force even has moments of comedy and peaceful moments, as Kei shows Gripen what regular humans live like. Though Kei can be a bit bland as the main character, this is an interesting anime we recommend you try out!
