Blue Monday is the first episode of the Eureka Seven anime. It premiered in Japan on April 17th, 2005, and premiered in english April 15th, 2006.
Overview
Renton Thurston, son of the legendary hero Adroc Thurston, lives a boring, monotonous life in the village of Bellforest. This life is suddenly interrupted when the mysterious LFO known as the Nirvash typeZERO and its pilot, Eureka, crash-land into his room, followed by Gekkostate — and the United Federation military.
Synopsis
Renton Thurston is a fourteen year-old lifter living in Bell Forest. He is an avid fan of Ray=out, and wishes to be a member of the Gekkostate. He lives with his Granfather, Axel Thurston, who is a mechanic, and wishes for Renton take on the business instead of becoming a "hero" and joining the military. Renton's compact drive begins glowing and shows the name Eureka. Shortly after, a white LFO crashes into his room, and the pilot, a beautiful young girl, Eureka, asks him to repair it. Renton begins the repairs and notices the LFO is the legendary Nirvash typeZERO, and has no compact drive. The girl suddenly leaves with the partially-fixed LFO to stop military missles and KLFs from attacking Bell Forest. Renton is in conflict about whether or not he should follow, when Axel gives him the Amita Drive. Renton then gives chase to Eureka on his motorbike with his lift board, and in conclusion to the epsiode, goes off the cliff near one of his favorite lift spots, which earlier had been demolished by the military.
