小中千昭
The manga is adapted into a 13-episode anime series by Triangle Staff and aired on WOWOW from April 16 to July 19, 2000. Much of the anime's staff also worked on "Serial Experiments Lain", as producer Yasuyuki Ueda suggested the team work on a lighter anime as relief from the dark, heavily psychological "Lain". The character Chiaki, a UFO fanatic, shares a name with Chiaki J. Konaka, the script writer for "Lain".
