Eureka 7: the Best Anime Ever

Ranked #1,356 in Entertainment, #14,648 overall

About Eureka seveN: Psalms of Planets

The anime takes place 10,000 years in the future, where humanity has left the Earth and found a new home. They are not the only sentient life form living there: Scub Coral, which makes up a large portion of the planet itself is a mysterious, intelligent being. It causes a phenomenon called Trapar (Transparent Light Particle) - strange energy floating in the air which people use to supply free power to flying vehicles, and even for surfing-like sport in the skies (called lifting or reffing).

The main character of Eureka 7 is Renton Thurston, a 14 year old son of Adrock Thurston, who died saving the world. Renton lives with his mechanic grandfather, hating his boring hometown and his father's reputation that surrounds him. He dreams of joining a rebel group called Gekko state, which has some of the best "reffers" too. An opportunity to do so comes up when Eureka, a mysterious girl from Gekko state, visits his grandfather to get some emergency repairs for her robot, Nirvash typeZERO.

Eureka 7 is a manifold anime that covers several different themes. It's a story of a boy growing up to become a man, and finding his path in life. It's a story of love between two beings from different worlds. It's a story about fighting to save the planet, and making great sacrifices in the progress.

Eureka 7 is produced by Bones studio. It has 50 episodes which are all named after a song. The genres of this series are adventure, mecha, and romance. I usually don't even like mecha anime much, but I absolutely loved E7!

This impressive remake of the popular Eureka 7 TV series by Bones studio gives the characters you love - Renton, Eureka, the Gekkostate crew and others - new background stories, motives, relationships and challenges.

Renton Thurston, a son of a scientist wows to save Eureka - a mysterious girl he grew up with who can't live under the sun. He's helped by Nirvash, which in this movie takes up the form of a cute mascot for some reason.

My personal opinion: this movie is worth seeing if you're an Eureka Seven fan, but the original series is still much better.

    This is the BEST SHOW EVER hands down. By "show" I mean this is better than any live action movie, tv series, or anime. This show is kind of like the Legend of Zelda of shows. It's completely original but at the same time "magical" if you choose to call it that. I would watch this series over and over again. The author has put basically everything he possibly could into this story; love, comedy, action, drama, teenage development, heartbreak, heroism, giant flying machines, science, and little Einstein'ish type references, there are quite a few references that would be hard for some of the directed audience to catch. "Don't beg for it, earn it! Do that and you will be rewarded"

    Y'know, i first watched this anime on adult swim about 6 years ago when i was only about 10. I've always been into anime from dragonball z to gundam, naruto and bleach, and even some that many don't even know about, but seeing this over again now that i'm older i can understand it a whole lot more, and nothing against other anime, but i don't think another will be able to surpass this. Those other anime,by far, are out of this anime in particular's league. The story, the romance between renton and eureka, the relationship with characters in this anime, are just, superior than the others to me. This is just an outstanding anime by BONES, and i give them tons of props on their excellent work. It makes me wish that my life could be like renton's or at least be in it. The suspense and excitement it filled me with was like nothing I've ever experienced before. Truly magical. The only think i didn't like about this is that it didnt go on as long as i would've hoped, or there wasn't a sequel to the series, or an OVA for that matter, but then again an ending like that is what made it special.

    Eureka 7 did something new for me. Made me an addict... i;ve never been addicted to anything until this. I like video games, women, eating, sports, movie and all that stuff but this series actually seemed to change my life. it gave me a new outlook on life. i know that sounds cheesy, stupid and most older people would say i'm crazy. but it;s the little things that can start a revolution in a person and this just might be mine. a definite must watch for any anime lover. it has action, humor, love, annoying little kids, a creative world, story, characters you can connect with, and wait there;s more. a evil character that you will despise at the end of the series. most series make the villain a complete badass that people eventually fall for. but this is a cold hearted mother Fu%$er that you will despise and want to see the end of. then the crew becomes something that you want to learn more about. you can build a connection with each character big or small. the things they go through seem like things we all deal with. Love, heart break, deceit, revenge, struggles, just all on a larger level. the movie was ok but the series is what it's all about. Go watch it online, the manga, anything and everything you can get your hands on and then go to the Bones website and ask for more cause it is that amazing.

    It is honestly supernatural. After having a lifechanging experience myself i have witnessed so many people saying things like this. I don't know what they put into that anime but somehow it is magic. It leaves something behind with you..

    All the same with me. It was about 100 anime that I'd seen, but now I don't know is there something that I could see after this. Sometimes a hate creators of Eureka - they make me cry (and laughed over myself simultaneously) on every episode from 12, because i knew that the end of story was inevitable. They make me addicted. I'm 34, i have a wife and daugther, but my anahata was turned out on a wrong side by this ainme, and i don't know what I have to do now.This story changed all my inner world, but now I don't know what the way I have to choose now and how to make my inner world and world around me to be on friendly terms. Sorry for my english. I'm from Russia and had to reply.

    "how to make my inner world and world around me to be on friendly terms"
    that's perfect :D
    The world around is just too confused when youve seen this, but it's hard to change.
    I suppose you have to learn to 'see no evil' and give up on the supposed 'reality' or to accept conflict which sort of means giving up on the perfection.
    Maybe the hard part is really choosing..

    Eureka Seven has been since 2005 the best anime ever, it has everything on it, the first anime i've ever fall in love of, when saw it for the first time in 2007, i couldn't believe in my own eyes, what they were showing to me, a complete diferent story from all the other animes, unlike the top animes that already have sequence and we know what will happen on it for sure, this is one is diferent, it put's us on a situation that we have never faced before, and that is what makes it so interesting. I also love Bleach and Naruto but this one, is with no doubt of it the best anime ever made.

    best anime true... best sci fi is stretching it a litte. I take it then you have never read any of Asimov, the Enders series, or just about any of the seventy and eighties stuff. This is a great anime and good science fiction but if it comes down to it its not in my top ten best SciFi.

    it certainly does present more daunting brain challenges, in of itself it is an amazing love story, and adventure. soundtrack is as always amazing as is the animation, but the daunting mental challenges come from the inner meaning and soul put into the entire series and movie, both internally as their interconnectedness between the worlds, but the meaning and lessons about life and tolerance as well as fighting for what is right and the preciousness of love. ive never seen a series with so much to say to the world at large as well as the world within. ive probobaly watched the movie 20 times since i downloaded it july 2nd, and every time ive come away with a better understanding of the movie and how intertwined the storylines truely are, many ppl say the characters are so dfferent personalty wise, yet they are the same, the only difference is their reactions tempered by pain, and ill fate. i could see the holland on this side being just as ruthless, as the movie one

    To the creator of this site: Agreed! E7 is the best anime ever! It's also the best science fiction story ever, in my opinion.

    To gp_72, thanks for the hint! I just watched the movie twice and didn't get it. Enjoyed it immensely, but didn't get it. I didn't even get it when holland saw the carved moon after going through the zone, but it totally makes sense that it's the other side of the rift. I felt good about understanding the series, but this story has laid down yet another daunting brain challenge. I will be watching the movie over and over until I figure out the connections between the two universes.

    nanashi has subbed the movie in 720 p, ive been watching and rewatching it for a few days, its not a sequel, or retelling or different mythos in the usual sense, it is the other side of the rift created by the scubs experience with the limit of questions(as discussed in acperience 4 ep 47), and this was the events that occured within the divergent universe adjacent to the series universe. the only thing i will say is the movie is absolutely beautiful, the best anime movie ive ever seen, every time i watch it it brings me to the brink of tears, it is that powerful. as amazing as the series was and as amazing as i expected the movie to be, even i couldnt comprehend what my soul was about to absorb. it was so much beyond anything i could have ever hoped for, just utterly amazing. if your confused, rewatch it a 2nd time, youll have to to truely understand. i know i did. i havent words to describe how amazing this movie is. i absolutely loved it, and am even more obsessed. absolutely amazed

    I Can't even express my lvoe for the anime its self, its truly such a great anime.. its my personal timeless classic and i don't think it will ever be outclassed in my books.
