About Lost Universe

Lost Universe (ロスト・ユニバース) arrives as an adventure anime by E&G Films and Studio Tulip (1998), and the premise is easy to summarize. The setup: Millie Nocturne has one great goal in life: to be the best in the universe - at absolutely everything! But when she tries her hand at being the "best detective," she ends up an unwilling partner with two people who will change her life forever: Kane Blueriver, the psi-blade-wielding master of the starship Swordbreaker, and Canal.

Beyond that: Join this unlikely trio on their adventures as they hurtle through space facing off against intergalactic crime lords, rogue starships, and hijackers dressed as chickens... and that's just the tip of the asteroid!

With adventure at the core, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Voice work is led by Souichirou Hoshi as Kane Blueriver and Megumi Hayashibara as Canal Vorfeed. This one is best suited to anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling. At 26 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.
