The Magnificent KOTOBUKI

2019 · 1 season

Rollicking aerial dogfights and a scrappy all-female crew give this a breezy, adventurous, old-fashioned matinee feel.

Starring

Overview
The story will take place in a barren frontier where people trade goods with each other in order to help each other survive. The Kotobuki Squadron are bodyguards for hire, led by a strict but beautiful squadron leader, an unreliable commanding officer, and a true artisan of a crew chief. Alongside pilots who don't lack for personality, they take to the air in dogfights, letting the engine noise of their Hayabusa fighters ring out in the skies.
