    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Fox Kids started with the second episode ("The Girl from the Mystic Moon"), as the first one had been deemed too violent for the age group they were aiming for. Instead the first episode ("Fateful Confession") was spliced with other episodes to create the new opening sequence with the new theme song.
    • Quotes

      [Repeated line]

      Hitomi Kanzaki: Was it all just a dream? Or maybe a vision? No, it was real...

    • Alternate versions
      The German dubbed version that was broadcast on MTV Germany used the song 'People' by Dax Riders as the main theme instead of 'Yakusoku wa Iranai' by Yoko Kanno.

    To me, the most beautifully done animated TV series

    One of the few series where the animation only gets better as the show goes on. Yoko Kanno's music is absolutely perfect, truly heart wrenching. It really adds to the very professional feel of the entire series. It may be your classic good versus evil plot (in a way) but there are so many other elements that make the whole escaflowne world come to life. A truly well done series. The only animated TV series I know of that feels like I'm watching a movie.
