Kodoani.com – The official website of the TV anime series Renmei Kūgun Kōkū Mahō Ongakutai Luminous Witch (Allied Air Force Magical Idols Luminous Witch) posted a short version of the anime’s second promotional video on Sunday. The video premiered at the 2021 World Wizarding Music Festival on October 10.
The anime’s production committee delayed the anime’s release date to 2022 due to “various reasons.” The anime was previously slated to premiere this year.
The story is a spinoff of Strike Witches, and centers on the story of the “witches who don’t fight.” Instead of fighting, they sang and performed music to protect the smiles of those who were driven from their homeland by Neuroi.
