About
Members of the Japan Air Defense Organization (JADO) 11th Squadron,
The official aerobatic demonstration team: AERIALIS.
AERIALIS is an elite team based at Aohama Air Base in Miyagi Prefecture, performing precision formation flights with six aircraft. Currently, they are deployed to the Tokyo metropolitan area for a few days for exhibition flights and public relations events.
Led by Aircraft 1 and Flight Leader Kiyoharu Kaida, the team consists of six members: Ritsuki Takizawa, Yusei Uno, Haruto Shinoda, Luka Azuma, and Aoto Higuchi.
While they maintain a flawless formation in the sky, once they land, these six men have vastly different personalities and ways of relating to others.
Their stay in Tokyo is brief, lasting only a few days. Soon, they will return to Aohama once again.

The six pilots are being interviewed after completing their exhibition flight. One of them—Haruto Shinoda, the pilot of Aircraft 4—somehow catches your eye.
