The Irresponsible Captain Tylor: The OVA Collection Vol. 5 - From Here to Eternity

But, to have peace, one side must lose. Or that was how is was supposed to be until Captain Tylor and the crew of the Soyokaze proved that constant wrong. But, forces are at work that may break the fragile peace that the two forces once knew.
