Set in an alternate 1937, nearly twenty years after the previous Great War, an uneasy peace hangs over the Fuso Empire as smaller skirmishes erupt across the globe. Young cadet Mio Sakamoto enters training alongside fellow recruits Junko Takei and Tetsuko Wakamoto under veteran instructor Fumika Kitagou, determined to master her abilities and earn her wings as a full-fledged Strike Witch. When the alien Neuroi launch a devastating offensive—culminating in a colossal "Mountain" Neuroi crossing the Fuso Sea toward the heart of the Empire—Mio and her squadmates must unite with the Fuso Imperial Navy and rely on Mio's Magic Eye to turn the tide.

Strike Witches: 1937 Fuso Sea Incident (known in Japan as Strike Witches Zero: 1937 Fuso Sea Incident) is a dieselpunk military sci-fi prequel manga illustrated by Ningen, based on the original story and concept by Humikane Shimada and Projekt Kagonish. Serialized in Kadokawa Shoten's Nyantype magazine from 2010 to 2012, this two-volume series explores the early origins of fan-favorite veteran Mio Sakamoto and the development of early Striker Units prior to the main anime storyline.

The broader Strike Witches franchise originated from Humikane Shimada's mecha-musume illustrations and expanded into hit anime series, light novels, and video games. Seven Seas Entertainment published both volumes of this prequel manga in English in August and October 2014.
