The official website for the Renmei Kūgun Kōkū Mahō Ongakutai Luminous Witches (Allied Air Force Magical Idols Luminous Witches) television anime series announced on Friday that the anime’s production committee has delayed the anime’s premiere date to 2022 due to “various circumstances.”
Shouji Saeki (episode director and scriptwriter for Strike Witches and Strike Witches 2) is directing the anime and handling the series composition.
The story is a spinoff of the Strike Witches franchise, and centers on a unique squadron of “witches who don’t fight.”
The anime’s main cast formed an idol unit in 2019, and the first CD single, “Flying Skyhigh,” shipped in May 2020.
