Should be interesting, since this is nothing like ANYTHING I've seen in Yuri Hime's predecessor (i.e. Yuri Shimai). Scanlations of Yuri Shimai content is on the Lillilicious scanlation projects page:

Perhaps Simoun will appear on there someday, as well...

On another note. The problem with Neville (boy, did I do a double take when watching the fansub, had to watch it twice to figure things out) is that I immediately think "Longbottom".

Oh, and before I forget. I find it interesting that these girls are not hardbitten veterans. They seem new to war, even though they are highly trained and are regarded as the elite among squadrons. Perhaps the war had just started, but more likely, the Simoun simply have never known loss. The start out thinking they're invincible, and full of confidence. And then they find out what CAN happen to them. The loss of three of their number shakes their morale to the core. I wonder if it was much like that for pilots in the RAF and Luftwaffe in 1939, before the actual shooting began.
