We’ve gotten a good bit of the cast announced for the anime adaptation of the spin off novel from Muv Luv Alternative with Schwarzesmarken over the summer. That cast has now expanded with Ken Narita and Mananim Numakura having joined the project and now the staff has been revealed as well. The anime adaptation will feature a visual novel as its prequel and another one as its sequel as it deals with different aspects of the series and the source material.
Set for a January 2016 debut, the series is directed by Tetsuya Watanabe based on series composition by Tatsuto Higuchi. Character esigns are being done by Shuuichi Hara while ixtl and LIDENFILMS are handling the animation with SANZIGEN handling the CG animation.
The Total Eclipse anime series landed in 2012 for a twenty-four episode run that was simulcast by Crunchyroll and just finished its home video release from Sentai Filmworks. The novel comes from Hiroki Uchida based n the overall creation from Hirohiko Yoshida. The book spawned a sequel light novel series as well.

Plot concept: The East German Army 666th TSF Squadron “Schwarzesmarken” (Black Marks) are a special-forces unit tasked with assaulting BETA forces through unconventional tactics; specifically, they target Lux and Magnus Lux to deny the BETA the advantage of ranged firepower. Their orders are given the topmost priority, such that it is common practice for the 666th to ignore allied distress calls that will result in deviation from their original mission, even if only for a short moment.
The 666th Squadron mostly operates MiG-21s, with their squadron commander Irisdena Bernhard piloting an MiG-21PF.
