Pale Cocoon	comment	Pale Cocoon is an OVA anime written by Yasuhiro Yoshiura, who would later go on to make Time of Eve.Ura is mining digital archives of the distant past for information. The world in the future he lives in is one of elevators, glass and shining metal, and that's all he's ever known. When he looks at the old files, he sees and wishes the past's animals and blue sky and growing plants. Their own environment was about to be destroyed, so all of humanity moved. Ura wants to know when this happened in the past. There's one archive file that he's looking for, because he thinks the lost files of their past could define their future in a big way. His coworker, Riko, has become distracted and listless, and he has become increasingly obsessive over his research.

Pale Cocoon / int_3f48bffa	comment	Apathy Killed the Cat: No one seems to have much interest in the outside world or the archives Because of this, people don't realize that they are actually on the moon instead of Earth.

Pale Cocoon / int_40cc0c7e	comment	Bittersweet Ending: Its not entirely clear if Ura has a safe way to return with what he learned. Its implied through the story about Riko’s grandmother that he might need to be exceptionally creative. There’s also the issue of returning to Earth.

Pale Cocoon / int_bf5cedc3	type	New Eden
Pale Cocoon / int_bf5cedc3	comment	New Eden: Humans escaped to the Moon to avoid environmental destruction, but somehow lost their written history, and started to believe they were living underneath the destroyed Earth. In the end the protagonist as the first person to go to the upper layers of the colony in centuries sees a blue, pristine Earth up in the sky, implying that the planet was healed long ago, but no-one thought to look. Well, perhaps Riko's grandmother did, but she fell to her death.
