synopsis
/
summary:
Mai-Otome or My-Otome is a comedy and action/adventure
anime series
based on an alternate version of the My-Hime universe. The setting is
on a distant planet in the future which has been colonized my mankind
long ago. But much of the original technology has been lost, and rival
kingdoms have formed with the balance of power based on military
strength.
Windbloom is the kingdom with sole possession of the
nanomachines
technology, but the only ones able to use it are female virgin warriors
called Otomes. The Otomes live by a strict code and are trained at
Windbloom’s Garderobe academy in both combat and etiquette.
When Otomes
have proven themselves, they are promoted to Meister Otomes and are
sent to serve as bodyguards for the leaders of the various kingdoms. An
Otome’s nanomachines grant her many superhuman abilities, and
she has
the firepower equal to an entire army. Thus, many countries are
interested in the technology and send their own young female candidates
to train at Garderobe.
Arika Yumemiya is an energetic 14 years old girl who
travels to the
kingdom of Windbloom in search of information about her mother. She had
been raised in the countryside by her grandmother and has never seen
her mother before. Her only clue is a jeweled pendant of her
mother’s
and the fact that she was once a famous Otome. Upon arriving at the
city, Arika meets her future friend and rival, Nina Wong, an Otome
candidate at Garderobe. Initially, Arika and Nina don’t get
along well
because Arika has no notion of what an Otome really is. When a
mechanical monster called a Slave appears in the city, the Meister
Otome Shizuru Viola is called upon to defeat it. Awed by a Meister
Otome’s balance of grace and power, Arika is determined to
become an
Otome herself and follow in her mother’s footsteps.
