Anime-sama: Anime rilis on summer 2014 ARGEVOLLEN

Introduction

VIEW OF THE WORLD Climate weapons created amidst intensifying warfare had tremendous results but also lashed out against humanity. Going out of control, it caused a massive destruction of climate and change of the Earth's axis. Humanity who now faced against the fierce rampage of nature were forced to end their war against their will, and barely manage to live day to day after losing all air traffic.
Roughly three centuries passed since in the Fallen Era. Even then, humanity was not able to stop waging wars on one another...
The Kingdom of Arandas alliance with its long history and abundant resources had been losing power due to the corruption rampant in the center of its operations. The Countries Unification of Ingelmia, which had vast amounts of land from its expansion policies yet desperately wanted the resources of its neighboring country, declared war against Arandas claiming they were releasing citizens of the kingdom from oppression. A long war has continued between the two nations on both sides of the Great Wall, the indomitable Arandas fortress protecting the kingdom ever since its inception.

Story

The Kingdom of Arandas alliance and the Countries Unification of Ingelmia... The long war between the two nations was at a stalemate with the two forces sandwiching the Great Wall, the indomitable Arandas fortress protecting the kingdom ever since its inception. However, the fortress gates that were supposedly shut tight suddenly opened with great noise, and the tides of war start to change drastically.
The Independent 8th Unit is stationed at the hidden fortress in the mountains of eastern Arandas. Susumu Tokimune was there as a new soldier waiting to enter his first battle. Following orders, the unit under the helm of Lieutenant Samonji Ukyo started its march to merge with the main forces to come across a troupe of Ingelmia soldiers assaulting civilians. Tokimune, who trudged ahead not thinking about the dangers of traps, has a fateful encounter with Jamie Hazaford the technician aboard the trailer and Argevollen the platinum Trail Krieger.
The encounter that occurred in a corner of the world where warfare was part of everyday life... This small coincidence changed the future of Tokimune and the Independent 8th Unit, and over time greatly influenced the state of battle....

Characters

	Susumu Tokimune VA: Ryota Ōsaka A new soldier assigned to Arandas Independent 8th Unit as a Trail Krieger pilot. Rank is private 1st class. He is rather cynical about life, but has a straightforward personality ideal to a soldier with the right mix of his sense justice and ability to take action. Due to his lack of experience, the actions he takes often go nowhere.
	Jamie Hazaford VA: Saori Ōnishi A technician at Kivelnes Manifacturing Company, and is in charge of Argevollen. Has quite an ordinary personality, but hates to lose and sometimes acts before she thinks. She also tends to bluff past her actual skill level.
	Samonji Ukyo VA:Hiroshi Tsuchida Lieutenant in charge of Arandas Independent 8th Unit. While being always calm and collected and showing adaptive judgment fit for someone who climbed up the ranks on the battlefield, he never speaks from his heart and has an inapproachable air to him. In his operations, he has a pet peeve about not letting any of his men fall during battle.
	Suzushiro Saori VA: Sayaka Ōhara Master Sergeant who assists Samonji as the number two in Arandas Independent 8th Unit. She has guts unthinkable from her calm demeanor, a smart and calm individual. She and Samonji go back quite a while, and she has earned great trust as the second in command.
	Silfy Appleton VA:Harumi Sakurai The seargeant assigned as the Trail Krieger pilot for Arandas Independent 8th Unit. Ingenious and was once dubbed the ace pilot, but she continually butted heads against her superiors and ultimately ended up in the 8th Unit. While she is a harsh critic of those around her, she has a disposition of an older sister and takes good care of people.
	Lorenz Giuliano VA:Kenji Hamada The corporal who is a Trail Krieger pilot for Arandas Independent 8th Unit. He ended up in 8th Unit after causing issues with women. His motto is “Everything in moderation” and is the type that can be counted on to get the job done without overreaching, though he will crack an occasional joke.
	Chief VA:Hideaki Tezuka Chief of the mechanic crew assigned to Arandas Independent 8th Unit. Many have the impression that his unreasonable stubbornness came from his time on the battlefield, but he assesses everyone with no discrimination as long as the person is skilled. He also has the flexibility to have knowledge of the newest theories.
	Sorano Akane VA:Chinatsu Akasaki Mechanic for Arandas Independent 8th Unit. Though frank, she often is misunderstood due to her strong will and the tendency to act based on emotion. She seems slightly frustrated that people don't treat her as a woman.
	Shiono Kaoru VA:Chinami Hashimoto Mechanic for Arandas Independent 8th Unit. She modestly guides the other two girls as something like an elder sister. She sometimes acts strangely as if showing signs of airheadedness. Has quite the fetish for mechs.
	Rikuru Hikaru VA: Aimi Mechanic for Arandas Independent 8th Unit. Methodical and cautious, adept with her work, somehow always sensible and attentive to support everyone around her. Has a weak will, and doesn't assert her own ideas too often.
	Schlein Richthofen VA: Takahiro Sakurai Though young, he is the best of the ace pilots Ingelmia's army has to offer. He is like a consolidation of all combat instincts that feels his purpose in life when he is in a life-or-death fight. After his encounter with Argevollen, he becomes the nemesis of the 8th Unit.
