The title immediately reminds me of an old European setting, with perhaps some orphans and country life. In reality though, it’s a little different. If the anime stays true to the manga, the story would go something like this: In a somewhat alternate world, where technology has advanced to an equivalent of early 20th century technology, an air force pilot by the name of Allison, and her childhood friend, steal an aeroplane and attempt to run down some criminals. This all happens in the midst of a large-scale war between two countries. This reminds me a lot of Last Exile (which I loved), so if it’s anything like that, I will be sure to watch it.
