Plot[edit]

In the near future, a Japanese scientist creates a high-tech powered exoskeleton called 'Infinite Stratos' (IS). Possessing technology and combat capabilities far surpassing that of any other arms system, the IS threatens to destabilize the world. Faced with such an overpowered weapon, the world's nations enact the 'Alaska Treaty', stating that IS shall never be used for military combat purposes, and that the existing IS technology must be equally distributed to all nations, to prevent any one nation from dominating the others. However, sometime after the IS was introduced, the society undergone a drastic change. As IS can only be operated by women, there is a shift in the power balance between men and women, where women now dominate society over men.

Ten years after the IS was initially introduced, the world has entered a new age of peace. However, a 15-year-old male Japanese teenager named Ichika Orimura changes everything. During an accidental run-in with a hibernating IS suit, it is revealed that he possesses the innate ability to operate an IS - the only male in the world capable of doing so. Seeing his potential, the Japanese government forcibly enrolls the bewildered young man to attend the prestigious Infinite Stratos Academy, a multicultural academy where IS pilots from all over the world are trained. Thus, he starts a busy high school life surrounded by girls training to become expert IS pilots. While they seem to be enjoying their thrilling school life, the danger of looming threats and enemies are never too far away.

Characters[edit]

Main characters[edit]

Ichika Orimura (織斑 一夏Orimura Ichika)

Voiced by: Kōki Uchiyama (Japanese); Josh Grelle^[4] (English)

Ichika is a first year student and class representative, as well as Vice-President of the Student Council at IS Academy. His older sister, Chifuyu, is a legendary IS pilot who raised him when the siblings' parents abandoned them at a young age. During the second Mondo Grosso tournament, he was kidnapped by the Phantom Task, that effectively causes Chifuyu to forfeit the match to rescue him, to which he regrets for being a weak brother. As the first male IS pilot, his new reputation has made him somewhat famous as many scientists and engineers would like to study him. He is mainly absent minded and oblivious to the feelings of the girls around him and seems to misunderstand their feelings towards him (though he seems to understand Houki's words during the second last episode of the first season when they almost kissed). Rumor has it that Ichika is aware of the girls' feelings for him, but avoids such affections due being the only male in school, and believes himself to have zero talent for being a suitable man.

He is a very kind person and he will go to great lengths to achieve a goal he has set for himself. He pilots the Byakushiki (白式, lit. White Expressions) IS,^[5] a prototype, one of only two developed 4th generation IS focused on short-range melee attacks. He also possesses Chifuyu's Yukihira Type 2 (雪片弐型Yukihira Nigata), upgraded from the version used by his sister; and Core Number 001, the very first IS core. Later on, Byakushiki undergoes Second Shift shortly after Houki Shinonono acquires her personal unit, Akatsubaki. In the resulting Second Shift form, named Byakushiki Setsura (白式雪羅), it is equipped with a multi-function unit (A.I.) Setsura (雪羅), which has: a high-caliber charged particle cannon, an energy claw for close-quarters combat, and an energy shield with the One-Off ability. In its Second Shift, Byakushiki also gains an increase in mobility through the addition of 4 large wing thrusters, enabling it to execute Double Ignition Boost.^{[volume & issue needed]} In this Second Shift form, it, and Houki's Akatsubaki, are the most advanced IS ever made.

Houki Shinonono (篠ノ之 箒Shinonono Hōki)

Voiced by: Yōko Hikasa (Japanese); Monica Rial^[4] (English)

Houki is a first-year student at the IS Academy and Ichika's childhood friend, though they have not seen each other for six years.^[6] She has a very long ponytail.^[7] Her place of residence is home to a kendodojo, which led to her early interest in kendo. Houki even competes in kendo competitions at a national level, and was the winner of the national tournament that was hosted one year before the story of Infinite Stratos began.^[8] She is part of the kendo club at the IS academy. Her older sister, Tabane Shinonono, is the creator of the IS, though their relationship is strained. Six years ago, Ichika agreed to become her boyfriend if she could win the national kendo tournament of their grade. However, the day of the tournament is also the day the IS was introduced to the world. Due to the familial links to Tabane, Houki's family is placed under government protection and Houki is forced to withdraw from the kendo tournament. Since that incident, Houki resents her sister for moving her away from Ichika and abandoning their family.

Despite not seeing him for a long time, Houki still harbors strong feelings of love for Ichika, as her continuing practice of kendo was her only link to him. She was his initial roommate before the arrivals of Charlotte Dunois and Tatenashi Sarashiki, and tends to get jealous when other girls are around him. Originally not possessing a personal IS, in Volume 3 she receives and pilots the Akatsubaki (紅椿, lit. Red Camellia) IS from Tabane, one of only two developed 4th generation IS and a short-range melee-class IS, armed with twin katana named Amatsuki (雨月, 'Rainy Moon') and Karaware (空裂, 'Cracked Sky'). The Akatsubaki has a One-Off ability called Kenran Butō (絢爛舞踏, 'Magnificent Dance'), which allows Houki to replenish both her own and other IS's energy when she comes in contact with them. However, because she is still unskilled as a pilot and her compatibility with the IS is only at grade C, she is still considered to be on the same level of the other girls. As of Volume 7, her compatibility has risen to grade S.

Cecilia Alcott (セシリア・オルコットSeshiria Orukotto)

Voiced by: Yukana (Japanese); Brittney Karbowski^[4] (English)

Cecilia is a first year student at the IS Academy and is an IS Cadet Representative of the United Kingdom. Her family is part of the British aristocracy. Her father, a spoiled and timid man who had little influence both inside and outside the Alcott family, makes her swear to never marry a weak man (a difficulty due to the shift in social status). Upon losing her parents in a deadly train accident when she is 12 years old, Cecilia is forced to protect her family fortune from those who wish to claim a stake of it. After showing high IS aptitude, she makes a deal with the British government, who, in exchange for protecting her family's assets, wants her to go to the IS Academy as a Cadet Representative to gather data for their latest 3rd-generation model. She was almost defeated by Ichika for the position of class representative but won due to a technicality, but later cedes her position to Ichika. She soon starts to see him as a true man and falls in love with him. She pilots the Blue Tears (ブルー・ティアーズBurū Tiāzu) IS, a long-range sniper-class IS, which can deploy four remotely controlled 'drones' (B.I.T.S. System) for engaging enemies at medium range. The Blue Tears IS is also equipped with the Starlight Mark III (スターライトmkIIISutāraito Māku Surī), a large laser rifle, and Interceptor (インターセプターIntāseputā), a short blade used for close-range combat. In the anime, Blue Tears is shown to also have a pair of rocket launchers attached to the hips, in place of two other Blue Tears shown in the light novels, used at close to long-range on different occasions.

Lingyin Huang (凰 鈴音Huáng Língyīn, 'Rin Fan') in the English dub

Voiced by: Asami Shimoda (Japanese); Hilary Haag^[4] (English)

Lingyin is a first year student at the IS Academy, the class representative of her class and is an IS Cadet Representative of China. As with Houki Shinonono, Lingyin has been friends with Ichika Orimura since their early childhood. She has been in love with Ichika ever since he protected her against four school delinquents. Lingyin at first becomes extremely hostile to Ichika after he forgets the details of a promise they made as kids (in which it was implied; although not explicitly stated, that if she became an excellent cook, he would become her boyfriend). She is also called 'Ling' (鈴Rin, 'Rin' in the English dub). Her family ran a Chinese restaurant that Ichika would often eat at before Ling's parents divorced and she moved back to China. She pilots the Shenlong (Shinryū, 神竜lit. Spirit Dragon) a short-to-medium-range melee-type IS armed with the Ryuhou (龍砲lit. Dragon Cannon), powerful 'Impact Cannons' hidden in the shoulder armor. It is also armed with the Sōten Gagetsu (双天牙月), a pair of liuyedao that can be connected to form a naginata-like weapon.

Charlotte Dunois (シャルロット・デュノアSharurotto Dyunoa)

Voiced by: Kana Hanazawa (Japanese); Shannon Emerick^[4] (English)

Charlotte is a first year student at the IS Academy and is an IS Cadet Representative of France. Charlotte initially calls herself Charles Dunois (シャルル・デュノアSharuru Dunoa), posing as the second 'male' IS pilot student that was transferred into Ichika's class. However, her plan is to spy on Ichika, discover how he is able to pilot an IS and acquire data from his IS (which at the time was considered the most advanced 3rd-generation unit). Because she enrolls as a male IS pilot, she is paired with Ichika as roommates since they are 'both' guys. As a result of this arrangement, Ichika later discovers her true gender when he inadvertently walks in on her showering. Upon learning that Charlotte's father and his corporation used her to spy on him, Ichika decides to help protect her. She later falls in love with Ichika due to his bravery. She pilots the Rafale Revive Custom II (ラファール・リヴァイヴ・カスタムIIRafāru Revaivu Kasutamu Tsū) IS, a 2nd-generation custom multi-range IS possessing a wide array of interchangeable weapons allowing for fast battlefield adaptation and capable of performing the Ignition Boost. Her weapons, once called upon, can be used by another IS pilot as long as she grants permission. Due to her training to make her a convincing male prior to her entry to the IS Academy, Charlotte uses 'boku' (an informal male equivalent of 'I') when referring to herself. Following the Silver Gospel Incident in later novels, Charlotte becomes Laura's roommate.

Laura Bodewig (ラウラ・ボーデヴィッヒRaura Bōdevihhi)

Voiced by: Marina Inoue (Japanese); Tiffany Grant^[4] (English)

Laura is a first-year student at the IS Academy and an IS Cadet Representative of Germany. A genetically-engineered super-soldier, Laura is the commander of the German IS special forces, Schwarzer Hase (シュヴァルツェア・ハーゼShuvarutsea Hāze, German for 'Black Rabbit'). She has a red eye and long silver hair; but her most distinct feature being a black eyepatch covering her glowing-yellow left eye, the result of a failed nano-machine experiment meant to help her pilot an IS better. Laura was under Chifuyu's tutelage when the latter was an instructor for the German army following the 2nd Mondo Grosso, and holds Chifuyu in high regard for helping her and was her role model when she suffered a depression for not being the strongest.^[9] Her current name is actually a code name given to her by the German military, as she was artificially created from human DNA. She has an elder sister, Chloe Chronicle, who is capable of infiltrating a person's mind through virtual reality via manipulate the modules around them.

Laura pilots the Schwarzer Regen (「シュヴァルツェア・レーゲンShuvarutsea Rēgen, German for 'Black Rain') IS, a medium-to-long-range artillery-type IS. The Schwarzer Regen possess several remotely guided tethers, which Laura uses to capture and restrain her opponents while she attacks them with a slow-firing but extremely powerful railgun. The Schwarzer Regen also possesses an 'Active Inertial Canceller' (AIC), which can be used to stop the movement of projectiles and even another IS. While a very powerful defense, the canceller can only be used against one target at a time, and is only effective at very close range.

Laura's original purpose for coming to the IS Academy is to punish Ichika, whom she blames for his sister withdrawing from the 2nd Mondo Grosso (unaware that Ichika was kidnapped at the time and Chifuyu withdrew in order to save him). She initially defeats Ling and Cecilia but struggles in the tournament against the pair of Ichika and Charlotte, as they had planned their attacks beforehand (unlike Laura, who does not excel with allies). After Charlotte beats her during the class tournament, the dormant VT-System within Laura's IS activates, causing her to go berserk. She is then stopped by Ichika, who also calms and console her in the Inter-IS subspace. After consoling her in the subspace, she realizes what Chifuyu sees in him and falls in love with him. Upon learning Ichika's strength is his freedom to choose and helping those around him and Chifuyu's advice, Laura decides to become Ichika's bodyguard to protect him against the other girls by kissing him in front of his class and professes that he is her 'wife', a misunderstanding of her knowledge of Japanese culture, and she will not accept any objections.

Tatenashi Sarashiki (更識 楯無Sarashiki Tatenashi)

Voiced by: Chiwa Saitō (Japanese); Jessica Calvello (English)

Tatenashi is the Student Council President of the IS Academy, as well as the 17th leader of the Sarashiki Family and the IS Representative of Russia. The long history of her traditional family, it's actually a secret organization that's been protesting Phantom Task for over 50 years. She is the Academy's most powerful IS pilot (the position of Student Council President is only given to the strongest IS Academy student). She is assigned to protect Ichika after the Silver Gospel incident and used her position as president to become Ichika's roommate (much to Houki's jealousy). Tatenashi likes to flirt with Ichika, teasing him with her body and making him uncomfortable most of the time. She asked for his help in getting her younger sister, Kanzashi's, IS operational in time for the school competition. Afterwards, she may have developed feelings for him. She is the pilot of the Mysterious Lady (ミステリアス・レイディMisuteriasu Reidi) IS. At the end of Volume 8, she reveals her true name Katana Sarashiki (更識 刀奈Sarashiki Katana) to Ichika, indicating some affection has grown between them.

Kanzashi Sarashiki (更識 簪Sarashiki Kanzashi)

Voiced by: Suzuko Mimori (Japanese); Kira Vincent-Davis^[10] (English)

Kanzashi is Tatenashi's younger sister and the IS Representative of Japan. Kanzashi is a fan of anime heroes. Despite being an IS Representative, she does not have a personal IS. The company that was developing her personal IS also produced the Byakushiki. Due to Ichika's rise in fame, the development of his IS unit was given priority over hers, and as a result, she harbors a resentment towards Ichika, not that he had anything to do with the decision. In addition, Kanzashi has always competed against her older sister and feels incompetent when compared to her. However, thanks to Ichika's efforts (unaware of Tatenashi's assistance until later), her IS the Uchigane Nishiki (打鉄弐式Uchigane Nishiki) is made operational. Kanzashi falls in love with Ichika for his kindness in helping her, and her view towards Tatenashi changes when she realizes that she has been competing with an idealized conception of Tatenashi and comes to be more accepting of her own accomplishments.

IS Academy staff[edit]

Chifuyu Orimura (織斑 千冬Orimura Chifuyu)

Voiced by: Megumi Toyoguchi (Japanese); Luci Christian^[4] (English)

Chifuyu is Ichika's 24-year-old older sister, and homeroom teacher of his class at the Academy. She was the Japanese pilot for the first-generation IS machines and was said to be the strongest IS pilot at one point before retiring. During her retirement, she looked after her brother and raised him by herself after their parents abandoned them at a young age. Despite her indifference towards Ichika, Chifuyu deeply cares for her brother, as she sees him as her only family. Chifuyu was also the one who enrolled Ichika to the IS Academy to keep him safe from other countries. Chifuyu once wielded Yukihira, a powerful IS energy blade now in Ichika's possession. Chifuyu was a close friend of Tabane Shinonono, which explains how their younger siblings became childhood friends. Tabane also implies (heavily) that Chifuyu piloted the 'White Knight' (白騎士Shirokishi)–the first ever developed IS that protected Japan from a massive missile attack 10 years prior to the series. Her IS currently is called the Kurezakura.

Maya Yamada (山田 真耶Yamada Maya)

Voiced by: Noriko Shitaya (Japanese); Cynthia Martinez^[4] (English)

Yamada is the substitute instructor of Ichika's class, possessing a noticeably large bust. She used to be an IS Representative Cadet of Japan.

Tabane and Chifuyu's connections, is the reason Ichika and Houki became childhood friends. Despite her normally cheerful nature, she has a condescending view towards outsiders and strangers and will often treat anybody besides Chifuyu, Houki, and Ichika with disdain. Tabane has a thing for rabbits, hence the metal bunny ears on her head and the carrot pod she arrived in to give Houki her IS. During a conversation with Chifuyu she admits to having initially reprogrammed the first IS to be compatible for Ichika, however she doesn't know how the Byakushiki moves while Ichika is piloting it. She is shown to be very proficient in combat when she easily held her own against three members of Phantom Task.

Clarissa Harfouch (クラリッサ・ハルフォーフKurarissa Harufōfu)

Voiced by: Kei Mizusawa (Japanese); Shannon Emerick (English)

Clarissa is Laura's comrade and the deputy commander of Schwarzer Hase. Like Laura, she also wears an eyepatch.

Ran Gotanda (五反田 蘭Gotanda Ran)

Voiced by: Noriko Obato (Japanese); Luci Christian^[4] (English)

Ran is Dan's younger sister. She is currently in her third year of middle school and is the student council president. Ran apparently has a crush on Ichika.

Phantom Task[edit]

Madoka Orimura (織斑 マドカOrimura Madoka)

Voiced by: Ai Kayano (Japanese); Luci Christian (English)

Madoka is Chifuyu's younger sister and Ichika's twin sister who has a striking resemblance to Chifuyu and harbors a grudge against her (possibly something having to do with their separation), and is a primary antagonist of the series. It is revealed, Madoka is a member of the Phantom Task organization, under the codename: M. She pilots the Silent Zephyrs, a 3rd generation IS stolen from England and based on Cecilia's Blue Tears. It appears to be more advanced than its predecessor. She later pilots the 'Black Knight' that was given to her by Tabane for unknown reasons.

Squall Meusel (スコール・ミューゼルSukōru Myūzeru)

Voiced by: Fumi Hirano (Japanese); Carli Mosier (English)

Squall is the leader of Phantom Task. Not much is known about her. She combines with an unusual IS called the Golden Dawn, its generation is unknown. Squall has enough confidence in her skills, and is a highly trained and dangerous fighter with incredible reflexes. She usually displays herself as polite, and ladylike in front of other. While she can be very ruthless when she want to be and doesn't mind using force, but doesn't like overdoing unnecessary things when she order Madoka not to kill the soldiers at the American base. Her main objective seems to collect data on Ichika's Byakushiki (in White Knight form) for a purpose yet to be revealed.

Autumn (オータムŌtamu)

Voiced by: Yuka Nishigaki (Japanese); Shelley Calene-Black (English)

Autumn is a rash, hot headed member who fought with Ichika during the IS academy's anniversary and almost succeeded in stealing the Byakushiki, with a device called the 'Remover', only to fail at the last minute when Tatenashi interfered. She pilots the Arachne, an eight-legged 2nd generation IS that was stolen from the USA. She is hinted to have a homosexual relationship with Squall, uncharacteristically blushing like a little girl upon seeing Squall.

Theron Martin of Anime News Network criticized the anime for its 'unbelievably dense protagonist' and weak storyline, but the action sequences received praise.^[1]
