Eureka Seven: AO

Eureka Seven is an anime series created and produced by Bones and directed by Tomoki Kyoda. The series ran for a total of fifty episodes, as well as a recap special titled "Navigation ray=out", which recaps the first half of the series. The first episode aired in Japan on April 17, 2005, and the final episode on April 2, 2006. The series was later picked up by Adult Swim for the United States market and began airing on April 16, 2006. Adult Swim aired the last episode on April 29, 2007, replacing Eureka's dialogue and the final scene with Axel and the children with the shortened regular opening and ending themes. A week later on May 6, they re-aired the episode with the original opening and ending content intact after complaints from viewers.

Almost all of the series' episode titles correspond to real songs, composed by Japanese or foreign artists. [1] Some of these have been stated to be intentional references (including "Blue Monday"), [2] and other phrases previously only existed as song titles.

A special episode that is a non-canonical alternate ending to the show. The script for this special was first performed in 2006 at a Sony Music Festival by the original Japanese voice actors. In March of 2012, Studio BONES decided to put existing footage of the TV series to this audio and air it for the first time on television. Episode 51's alternate ending entails that Eureka must go on a journey to scatter seven pieces of her memories across the land in order to calm it. In the end, Eureka and Renton must part ways, but Renton vows that they will meet again someday, no matter what. Episode 51 has absolutely no relation to Eureka Seven's sequel, Eureka Seven: AO, as this was an ending that was not used for the original TV run of the series, and Eureka Seven: AO continues from the events that happened in episode 50.
