posted on by Egan Loo
The official website for the anime of Yū Moroboshi's Kūsen Madōshi Kōhosei no Kyōkan (Aerial Combat Wizard Candidates' Instructor) light novel series began streaming the first character promotional video on Monday. The video profiles the character Misora Whitale voiced by Nozomi Yamamoto. Misora is the 14-year-old second-year aerial combat wizard candidate who leads the E601 team.
The video notes that the anime will premiere on July 8.
The story is set in a world where humanity, driven off the land by the threat of magical armored insects, now live in aerial floating cities. Thus wizards — aerial combat mages who fight the insects with magical powers — came into being.
Kanata Age (Eiji) is a young man who lives on the floating wizard academy city of "Misutogan." He was once celebrated as the "Black Master Swordsman," the elite ace of the S128 special team. However, he is now despised as the "traitor of the special team." One day, he is assigned as the instructor of E601, a team that has suffered 10 consecutive defeats. E601 has three girls — Misora Whitale, Lecty Eisenach, and Rico Flamel — with one or two peculiar quirks.
The cast includes:
Yoshitsugu Matsuoka as Kanata Age
Nozomi Yamamoto as Misora Whitale
Nao Tōyama as Lecty Eisenach
Iori Nomizu as Rico Flamel
Risa Taneda as Yuri Flostre
Yuuki Yamada as Chloe Sevegny
Saeko Zōgō as Freon Flamel
Tetsuya Kakihara as Lloyd Alwyn
Iori Nomizu is singing the opening theme song "D.O.B," and la la larks is performing the ending "Hallelujah."
Moroboshi launched the light novel series with illustrations by Mikihiro Amami in July 2013, and Kadokawa's Fujimi Shobo published the sixth volume in March. Arisu Shidō launched a manga adaptation in the September issue of Media Factory's Monthly Comic Alive magazine on July 26.
