In the 1940s, Earth was attacked by an alien force called the "Neuroi." The world suffered greatly due to the destruction caused. However, one man managed to create a weapon known as the "Striker unit" that augmented magical power and allowed flight through two mechanical lower-leg coverings. This invention became known as witches' brooms. Young witches from around the world banded together to fight back in a force called Strike Witches. The inventor of the Striker unit was thought to have been killed during service, but his daughter lived a relatively normal life with incredible magical power that she hoped to use for healing one day. Suddenly, she was whisked away on a search to find out if her father was actually alive. She encountered his invention and the possibility of using it herself.
