Reads right to left; black and white.

Filled with a desire to see the pure light of space, Shima heads for Stellvia space academy. The atmosphere at the academy is surprisingly like an average high school with new friends, developing crushes, and tons of homework. School would be great if Shima didn’t come close to dying every time she stepped into a cockpit. Who would have imagined that the school’s greatest computer programming mind would also be its worst pilot ever? But even this problem pales in comparison to the larger dilemma they all face—a wave of supernova explosions approaches Earth, and a team from Stellvia academy will form part of the shield that could save humanity.
