Just saw this on ANN:

Publisher Fujimi Shobo announced on Monday that an anime adaptation of Yū Moroboshi's Kūsen Madōshi Kōhosei no Kyōkan (Aerial Combat Wizard Candidates' Instructor) light novel series is in the works.

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.

So yeah, thread title will need an update... show's been delayed to July 2015 now.

If nothing else, at least now we know what Iori Nomizu's OP will sound like.

la la larks will be performing the ending theme song, "Hallelujah."

Seems like this show is having quite a bit of trouble with its production and cast.

> Yuuki Yamada will replace Kaori Sadohara as Chloe Zeveni in the upcoming series.

That was meh imo.

Not a fan of any of the main characters. While we do get some action and mechanics in the beginning, there's little substance I feel from the show. However, I will say that perhaps the music works well for this series. Not too shabby for the character designs though I guess.

I think the only girl I like in this is Rico.

But Kanata is pretty cool I guess.

All the girls are generic as hell. Good that MC react on them like "what a weirdos"
