Synopsis:
In a world at peace without war, humans have invented performance wars for entertainment in order to truly experience the feeling of peace. Amidst this simulated gunfire, there are still cruel casualties. The special warriors "Kildls" fly fighter jets in the sky. Their bodies remain in a state of adolescence, neither aging nor dying, but their growing inner selves feel more fatigue than ordinary adults do. Dying in battle is their only way out. These young people burdened with an unfortunate fate compose a cycle of love, life, and death between heaven and earth...
"Kildl" Juichi Hatsunaminato is a pilot belonging to Japan's war company Rostock. He is sent to the frontline base "Usurishima" to fight against Europe's war company Lauterun. Juichi has no memory of his past, only knowing how to operate a fighter jet; flying and showcasing his skills in the sky is everything to Juichi. The female commander of the base, Sora Shibuki, is also a "Kildl." She was once a decorated ace pilot. There are many strange rumors surrounding Sora. Some say she killed Juichi's predecessor, while others claim her sister Reiki is actually her biological daughter. Juichi is deeply attracted to Sora. When they first meet, Sora's gaze seems familiar, as if she is waiting for him. Despite limited conversation and interaction, their hearts rapidly draw closer. One day, Sora says to Juichi, "How about killing me? Otherwise, we will be stuck here forever." This statement leaves Juichi perplexed.
The situation at the base becomes increasingly dire as Lauterun sends out the invincible pilot "Teacher," rumored to be the only adult pilot. In the face of this formidable enemy, comrades fall one by one. The company sends new recruits to bolster their forces. Juichi discovers that the new pilots share the same habit as Tomitagawa, who was killed by "Teacher"—folding newspapers several times. Why would strangers share the same peculiar habit as someone who has passed away?
Gradually recovering memories, the meaning of Sora's strange words, and the fate of the "Kildls"... when Juichi understands all the truths, he makes the decision to defy his destiny—"I will shoot down 'Teacher'!"
