2025 will be here before we know it, marking the thrilling 20-year milestone for one of the most legendary sci-fi mecha series ever conceived: “Eureka Seven“! This masterpiece was first unveiled on April 17th, 2005, by the talented minds at Bones. Set in the year 12005, a mere blink of an eye after humanity was driven away from Earth due to an invasion by the Scub Coral – an extraordinary, sentient species that assimilated and devastated our home planet.
In this gripping narrative, we primarily follow Renton Thurston, a 14-year-old boy who lives a mundane existence with his grandfather, son of the late Adrock Thurston, a military researcher instrumental in humanity’s salvation. However, destiny takes an unexpected turn when a mech miraculously lands in their small town, offering Renton the chance to rewrite his future!
To mark the 20th anniversary of the franchise, its original character designer, Kenichi Yosada, unveiled a fresh promotional artwork showcasing the beloved characters from the anime series. Alongside this, there’s a special promotional video featuring the opening theme song “DAYS” by FLOW from the 2005 anime. In Japan, starting April 7th, streaming platforms will grant unlimited access to the anime and host exclusive events for fans, in addition to releasing new merchandise based on the characters. Further details about the new merchandise are yet to be disclosed, but they’ll be revealed closer to the anniversary date.
Eureka Seven Is a Sci-Fi Masterpiece With Plenty of Mech Action
The show became an immediate sensation upon its debut, spanning 50 episodes initially and eventually getting a follow-up titled “Eureka Seven: AO” in 2012, with another 24 episodes. Beyond its television popularity, “Eureka Seven” was also transformed into a manga by authors Jinsei Kataoka and Kazuma Kondou, published in the monthly edition of “Shonen Ace” by Kadokawa, compressing the series into six volumes. At approximately the same time, the franchise expanded further with a four-volume light novel series, as well as four different video game adaptations from Bandai Namco, allowing fans to relive key scenes from the anime through interactive play.
Beyond its already rich content, Eureka Seven also spawned several films that broadened the franchise’s narrative scope. For instance, “Eureka Seven: Good Night, Sleep Tight, Young Lovers” introduced a fresh mythology and parallel plotline, while the trilogy “Eureka Seven: Hi-Evolution” functioned as a prequel. Eureka Seven has solidified its position among the best anime of all time, with its expansive content serving as just one measure of its remarkable influence on both the industry and community. In 2006, Eureka Seven won numerous awards at the Tokyo International Anime Fair, including Best Screenplay and Best Character Design. The series also resonated strongly with Western audiences, winning the Best Televised Anime award during Anime Expo’s 2006 SPJA Awards, and being honored with the award for the Best Female Character in the same year.
