Sky Wizards Academy (Japanese: 空戦魔導士候補生の教官, Hepburn: Kūsen Madōshi Kōhosei no Kyōkan, lit. "The Instructor of the Aerial Combat Wizard Trainees") is a Japanese light novel series written by Yū Moroboshi and illustrated by Yuka Nakajima. Fujimi Shobo has published fourteen volumes since July 2013 under their Fujimi Fantasia Bunko imprint. A manga adaptation with art by Arisu Shidō started serialization in Media Factory's seinen manga magazine Monthly Comic Alive from July 26, 2014.

Plot

Humanity was driven off the land by the threat of magical armored insects and now live in aerial floating cities. Its defenses lie in wizards who fight the insects with magic in mid-air. Kanata Age is a young man who lives on the floating wizard academy city of "Misutogan." He was once celebrated as the "Black Master Swordsman," the elite ace of the S128 special team. However, he is now despised as the "traitor of the special team." One day, he is assigned as the instructor of E601, a team that has suffered over 100 consecutive defeats. E601 has three girls — Misora Whitale, Lecty Eisenach, and Rico Flamel — with one or two peculiar quirks.

Characters

Main characters

Kanata Age (カナタ・エイジ, Kanata Eiji)
Voiced by: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka (Japanese); Joel McDonald[2] (English)
Formerly known as the ace of Platoon S128 and the strongest Sky Wizard, after a very dangerous mission that he completed successfully, he stopped going on missions, and now he's loathed as a traitor. He becomes the instructor of Platoon E601, hoping to improve their capabilities. He tends to be in situations where the girls label him as a pervert but is able to overcome the hurdles thrown at him.
Misora Whitale (ミソラ・ホイットテール, Misora Hoittotēru)
Voiced by: Nozomi Yamamoto (Japanese); Tia Ballard[2] (English)
The leader of Platoon E601. Despite having good speed and stamina, she's rather impulsive and not very good with her weapon or giving orders. When Kanata finds out her desire of being a Sword Sorcerer as a way of honoring her late mother, he decides to train her in order to make her improve. It is shown that she holds feelings for Kanata and usually gets jealous when he acts kindly towards Yuri.
Lecty Eisenach (レクティ・アイゼナッハ, Rekuti Aizenahha)
Voiced by: Nao Tōyama (Japanese); Megan Shipman[2] (English)
Member of Platoon E601 with the role of close combat fighter. Despite being skilled with her weapon, she's incredibly shy and prone to apologizing a lot for no reason. In order to help her, Kanata makes her work at a maid cafe so she can talk to other people. She also has feelings for Kanata as he made her improve her lack of social skills and confidence.
Rico Flamel (リコ・フラメル, Riko Furameru)
Voiced by: Iori Nomizu (Japanese); Dawn M. Bennett[2] (English)
Member of Platoon E601 with the role of sniper. While intelligent and good at shooting, she's narcissistic to the point of seeing herself as a goddess, not even bothering to practice. It turns out that a lot of her narcissism comes from feeling inferior towards her older sister, but Kanata helps her recover her will to fight. She has feelings for Kanata as well as he accepts her for who she really is.
Yuri Flostre (ユーリ・フロストル, Yūri Furosutoru)
Voiced by: Risa Taneda (Japanese); Jad Saxton (English)
Member of Platoon S128, who used to idolize Kanata, but since she was unconscious when he charged alone, she now sees him as a traitor like most of the academy. Whenever she sees him she always picks a fight with him however it is quite clear she is just trying to get his attention. Despite calling him a traitor, she still has feelings for him. After losing a bet against Kanata in the Mistgun tournament she joins Fireteam E601 with the rest of the girls.
Chloe Sevegny (クロエ・セヴェニー, Kuroe Sevenī)
Voiced by: Yūki Yamada (Japanese); Megan Emerick (English)
Guard Captain of Platoon S128 and Kanata's childhood friend. She still defends Kanata's actions and later recommended him to be the instructor of Platoon E601.
Lloyd Alwin (ロイド・オールウィン, Roido Ōruwin)
Voiced by: Tetsuya Kakihara (Japanese); Ricco Fajardo (English)
Another member of Platoon S128. Like Chloe, he doesn't see Kanata as a traitor. Kanata seems to be quite good friends with him as they can be seen chatting quite often.
Freon Flamel (フロン・フラメル, Furon Furameru)
Voiced by: Saeko Zōgō (Japanese); Alex Moore (English)
Rico's older sister and supervisor of the Sky Wizard Platoons. Despite disliking her sister's attitude, she occasionally asks Chloe about her progress. But seeing Kanate the "traitor", training Platoon E601 for the Mistgun tournament, she's arrogantly adamant in getting rid of Kanate and his platoon. Includes asking Yuri to try to get her team to win.

Other characters

Real Nua (レアル・ヌア, Rearu Nua)
Voiced by: Hiroki Yasumoto (Japanese); Chris Guerrero (English)
A member of the medical division who develops a crush on Yuri although his crush is what leads to his decision to gain power through nefarious ways and succumbing to possession by the sky beetles; he almost destroyed the academy. He is the main antagonist in the anime.

Voiced by: Chika Anzai (Japanese); Lynsey Hale (English)

Gail Whitale
Voiced by: Jiro Saito (Japanese); Jeremy Inman (English)
Misora's father, who is a Normal and owner of a restaurant. He forgot about his wife when she was killed by the Insects and now he worries that if Misora dies, he will also forget her.
