Great news, sadly I have to admit it makes little sense buying these untranslated.

Good thing SW is still very popular in Nipland. Should we get an official translation, I'll make sure to buy it.

The Empire of Orussia.
Once, it was a country on the brink of being overrun by the mysterious Neuroi.

But their advance has been stopped thanks to the efforts of the Witches,
Girls who fly through the skies armed to the teeth.
Even with half of their land lost to them, humanity holds its ground.

Come on, you can tell me.

...I got in a fight.
The usual story.

When I came to Petersburg,
I saw some soldiers trying to make a move on a reporter.

I butted in to stop 'em, but the jerks weren't taking me seriously...

Hahaha! So that was you, huh?

I saw that big fight going on in the streets.
I was wondering who started it.

Sorry about that.

Don't worry about it. It's been awhile since I've been in a place like this anyway.

Hm... Wait a sec...

The reason I'm always in isolation like this is because I'm a Witch.
So that must mean...

Are you a Witch?

Hey, is it true you're some kind of lone wolf without any sense of cooperation?

Who told you that? I'll send 'em flying.

You can just forget about that.

How cold.

Our last operation was supposed to finally liberate Orussia, but it felt like we just regressed.
Because no matter how many you'd get rid of, the Neuroi just kept coming and coming.
It was useless - like pulling weeds.

"Ace Witch." What a joke.

Countess!?

Shouldn't your pronunciation be more crisp, more elocuted?

It's not an official title, it's just what everyone calls me. But hey, you're pretty smart, aren't you Nao-chan?

Wait a sec. Don't call me that.
Don't add a "-chan".

Until just recently I had been waiting at the Suomuski Station.
Naturally, it was to welcome you.

Then, as I was planning on heading back, I hear that 3 Witches got imprisoned.
So I hurry over to speak with the military police, who have me sign numerous papers.
And, after that was over, I had to make my way here.

But when I had heard why you were put in here I was surprised... A fight?
We Witches are supposed to fight the Neuroi, but you ended up fighting with a soldier?

[left of Kanno, 2nd panel] Uh...

You did well.

...Huh?

Orussia can be an intimidating place - enough to stifle a crying child.
Most would only go as far to say "excuse me" to stop a shameless man.
I'm glad, Kanno-san, that you know how to deal with such ill-mannered soldiers.

Ah, yeah...

However,
Please refrain from doing it this way in the future. There is nothing to be gained from fighting with allies.

So the idea is to bring a bunch of aces from different countries together to raise our results.
This Joint Fighter Wing thing, I mean.

After the test case of the Suomus Independent Volunteer Aerial Squadron,
And the Britannia-based 501st were considered effective, it was decided to increase the number of such units.

Illu got assigned to the 501st...

Are there going to be any Witches aside from us?

Question.

Were we appropriately chosen for this?

Well, I was the one who requested you from your respective units.

This is Orussia. The harshness of the struggle here far surpasses anywhere else.
I need Witches who are prepared for what lies ahead.
I decided that you all seemed suitable for the job.

Man these kill counts in witch verse seem arbitrary in relation to the aces.

Anyways what I don't like is that this is four years prior yet, all of them are exactly the same as they would be later to the war physically.
For girls their age, four years is a huge amount of time passing. Naoe is 11? She looks nothing like a person one year younger than Lucchini. Goddamn Nipa is Naoe's age too at 11 and even more ridiculous. Yet her nipas are as large as ever, did they suddenly pop like that at 9 when puberty hits earliest? Krupinski being 15 now and later 18 is something I can understand that she has hit her looks that won't necessarily change that much.

The specific time it takes place is given in >>12531 as Winter 1943, about one year before the anime. The 4 years prior is in reference to Orussia already being liberated and humanity fighting back - most likely in reference to the Strike Witches IF Cold Winter 1947.

Picking up fights with random soldiers just seems like the sort of thing that normally wouldn't happen in SW media, though perhaps it's something more along the lines of what people were hoping for with Brave Witches. And yes, I don't recall hearing of the jailing before this thread.

I think Krupi belongs behind bars for something else entirely though.

Mostly just for flow and impact.
If I wanted to be more literal/true to the page I would probably split it into two sentences like "Hurry up! Let me outta here!" or do what you had suggested, but I feel like "Let me outta here!" already carries a sense of urgency in English and the "Hurry up!" is understood, especially if someone is yelling.

An observation post was able to witness the battle.

I suppose congratulations are in order for shooting down a medium-type Neuroi,
Although I was surprised to hear that three Witches had engaged a Neuroi in the first place.
This victory will be shared amongst yourselves.

Huh? It's not mine?

I told you it was mine.

I thought it was mine.

That was just this morning, but you've already broken them before breakfast.

We don't even have all of our Witches assembled and already three of our members can't sortie.

What do you think would happen if a Neuroi were to attack right now?

I don't think I need to explain, do I?
I'm sure it would be a real treat.

I haven't had anything to say until now.
You're all veterans with repeated experience in Orussia.
An attack by the Neuroi shouldn't come as a surprise.

Sometimes your equipment will break, and sometimes we'll run out of spare parts, these things happen.
But the fact is, we can't afford any losses in fighting strength.

I mean, taking off and engaging in a battle without any orders?
Sasha nearly fainted when she heard.

I somehow managed to stay standing.

Now let me be clear,
Preparing the papers to request spare parts and the like is tedious.
I wish I could just make a single phone call and be done with it, but the military doesn't work that way.
So I would appreciate it if you didn't give me any extra work in the future.

Wait a moment.

Before you go, I'd like you girls to run two laps around the base.

Huh!?

It's a punishment for taking off on your own and for losing your Strikers.
A rather mild one at that.

That makes sense, but...

But why do we gotta do it before breakfast...

Would you prefer three laps?

Feel free to keep eating, but listen up.

The damage to Krupinski and Katajainen's Strikers was less than we had expected.
The repairs should be pretty easy. They'll be fixed by tomorrow.
But the damage to Kanno's unit was pretty severe.

Huh...
Are you saying I can't sortie?

No, in fact the repairs are already finished. It's just that we've run out of spare parts faster than we expected.
So, if you break your unit in the same place again you won't be able to sortie for quite some time.

Well why don't they just send us a resupply on parts sooner?

The military is a bureaucracy, it's not that easy.
By the way, the maintenance team mentioned the damage was only that bad because it had been flown so close to the enemy during a battle.

If I didn't do it I couldn't have beaten him.

I commend your fighting spirit.

But if you keep breaking your unit there won't be anyone here left to protect.
In that case, the entire Western half of Orussia would be under their control.
That'd make Sasha pretty mad.

I'll be talking to Sasha about the spare parts when she gets back with the new members.

Waiting for that, huh...
Now that you mention it, how many more are coming?

I'm expecting one from Karlsland, one from Gallia, and two from Fuso.

One of the Witches from Fuso might be an acquaintance of yours, Kanno.
Oh, one more thing,

[next to Kanno] I can't think of anyone I'd know...

Because we have to give priority to the spare parts,
Some luxury items for the next supply, like sweets, had to be postponed.

Seriously!?

We don't have a choice.
At least not until we can defeat the enemy and secure a supply line, or as long as you don't break any more Strikers,
Or both.

Nao-chan.
I know what the Commander just said, but there's still some chocolate in the warehouse from the last supply.

And after my victory I'll take all of Nao-chan as well.

Hey, Nipa, come get in on this.

I want chocolate.

By fighting in both Orussia and Britannia, we can breakup the threat of the Neuroi.

There's a lot of Neuroi in Orussia,

And the only supply line we have left is through Karelia.

I doubt even the Neuroi are idiotic enough not to take advantage of this situation.

Peace is a wonderful thing.

I doubt Europe would appreciate that kind of Liberion.

But at the same time, Europe can't survive without Liberion's support.

So to garner their support we'll sell as much of the Witches' lives as we can.
I want them decorating the covers of magazines and appearing on billboards.

So just give up!

Wouldn't it be better to go in pairs?

About that...

I think I should go first.
Afterall, Suomus and Orussia are pretty close, Fuso is really far away.

Yeah, and I'm from that far away place, so?

I came from the closer place!

What the hell are you on about!?

Well, while you two are busy deciding, why don't I just...
[side of bubble]OUCH!
Ah, alright! We'll settle it another way!!

Aw yeah!

Just hurry up and go.
I'll go take a nap or something.

What're ya talkin' about? You gotta make sure to record every Neuroi I shoot down!
I'll make sure you get a good view from down here!

I don't wanna!

Speaking of...

I'm about to gouge your eyes out!

I'm at an altitude of 4000 meters. On patrol. Heading south towards Moscow.
