Synopsis:
Following a period of quiet recovery, Yoshika Miyafuji is unexpectedly drawn back to Europe, this time under the auspices of a medical studies program arranged by her former colleagues. Accompanied by Shizuka Hattori, a student of her old superior officer, Mio Sakamoto, Yoshika's return coincides with unsettling resurfacing incidents related to Neuroi – anomalous entities tied to human consciousness. As these occurrences intensify, individuals formerly associated with the 501st Joint Fighter Wing begin to converge, hinting at a shared past and a growing sense of purpose. The narrative centers on Yoshika and Shizuka as they confront a particularly potent manifestation of Neuroi, exploring themes of trauma, resilience, and the lingering impact of past experiences within a subtly unsettling European setting.

User Espada_No4 (Score: 7/10):
8/10 for Eila, 6/10 for the rest of the movie, 7/10 overall (it was good). Like the 12 episode chibi-style spin-off series that came before it, this movie is a comical redo of the actual Strike Witches Movie. While 12-episode series was highly condensed and comical throughout, this movie has much slower pacing and thus doesn't feel as funny. Otherwise this is exactly what you'd probably expect from the film. :) (That said, if you've found this randomly please watch the original series and then the movie / OVAs first! There are a lot of characters in this film and you won't have time to appreciate anyof them from just this movie or even from just the 12-episode spin-off series).
