Portal:Anime and Manga/Selected lists/6

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of episodes of the 2007 Japanese animated television series Blue Drop: Tenshitachi no Gikyoku (BLUE DROP ~天使達の戯曲~?). The episodes are directed by Masahiko Ohkura and animated by the Japanese animation studios Asahi Production and BeSTACK, with the 3D modeling done by Gonzo.[1] They constitute a prequel to the storyline of the Blue Drop manga by Akihito Yoshitomi.[2] The plot of the episodes follows Mari Wakatake's relationship with the enigmatic Hagino Senkōji, a member of an alien race known as the Arume, and the prelude to an invasion by the Arume.

The episodes aired from October 2, 2007 to December 25, 2007 on Chiba TV and KBS Kyoto, with AT-X, Mie TV, Tokyo MX TV, TV Kanagawa, TV Saitama, and TV Wakayama showing the episodes at later dates.[1] The AT-X broadcast started much later than its counterparts, with the first episode airing in November, while most other stations started showing the episodes in October.[1] Unlike most Japanese anime, the titles of the episodes are given in English instead of the customary Japanese, and each episode title is the name of a flower shown in the episode.[3]
