One of the winter anime series we haven’t had too much come out on is Toaru Hikuushi e no Koiuta, which translates to A Love Song to a Certain Airship Pilot. We’ve seen a flavor of this before with the 2011 Madhouse feature film The Princess and the Pilot, which was released in the US by NIS America. This new series from Bandai Visual and TMS Entertainment isn’t the same story as it works with different characters and situations as well as a different period of time. It’s all connected by being in the same world though, just earlier than that feature.
Plot concept: This is a tale of a prince who lost everything who leaves for a journey with no guarantee of returning to his hometown safely. With hatred and revenge in his mind, he meets several people that teach him about friendship… and love.
