Blue
Gender (ブルージェンダー Burū Jendā?) is a 26-episode anime
created by Ryōsuke Takahashi (of Armored Trooper Votoms and Gasaraki fame)
broadcast in Japan from 1999-2000. Blue Gender was created by the Japanese
animation studio, AIC and is distributed in the United States by Funimation
Entertainment. In 2003, Blue Gender was released on American television as part
of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, though it had originally been planned for
Toonami, and was thus edited to remove its graphic violence, nudity, and sex
scenes. There is also a compilation movie (Blue Gender: The Warrior) available
on DVD with an alternative ending. The series was also shown on the Sci-Fi
Channel in the UK in 2002-2003. The Blue Gender series is set in the 2030s, in
which Earth has been overrun by the Blue, which are mutated insect-like
creatures containing a newly evolved B-cell that recently appeared in several
humans, including the main protagonist, Yuji Kaido. that kill and harvest
humans for food. Most of the surviving human race has moved to Second Earth, a
huge spaceship that orbits the planet. The series mostly focuses on Yuji and
Marlene's relationship as they work together to reach Second Earth and their
participation in military combat operations against the Blue.
