    Synopsis:

    The 501st Joint Fighter Wing exists in a quiet lull. Yoshika Miyafuji, a recent recruit, finds herself navigating the mundane realities of military life alongside her comrades – preparing meals and managing household chores – far removed from the intense battles against the Neuroi, alien entities the Wing was originally designed to combat. The series explores the interpersonal dynamics within this specialized unit as they grapple with the unexpected downtime following a period of relative peace. It presents a slice-of-life perspective on military personnel, highlighting camaraderie and individual struggles amidst an unusual state of readiness. The atmosphere is grounded, focusing on character interactions and the subtle tensions that emerge when purpose shifts from active defense to maintaining operational readiness in unforeseen circumstances.
