* OpeningNarration: The episode opens with a brief monologue detailing the Neuroi's 1939 invasion of Europe, the development of the Striker Unit and the history that followed:
-->"It was the year 1939. They appeared all over the world without warning. We called them Neuroi. Nobody knows where they came from or what they want. But the hell they brought drove us all from our countries, from our cities... They drove us from our homes. Mankind came up with a new weapon to fight the Neuroi and began to stand up and fight. The Striker Unit: a device that heightens natural magical ability, the only thing capable of combating the Neuroi. This modern witches' broom made individual flight possible, but only for a select few who possess the power. A call went out to witches across the world to lend their skills to the battle. This elite task force organized to fight was named the 501st Joint Fighter Wing. But these young women are known by another name, simply called the Strike Witches."
