Blue Seed (Manga) | comment |
Blue Seed is (loosely) based on the Izumo cycle of Japanese mythology and the tale of the god Susanoo and the eight-headed monster Yamata no Orochi. The original manga was written by Yuzo Takada and published in Comic Ganma from 1992 to 1996. A 26 episode anime adaptation aired from 1994 to 1995.Momiji Fujimiya, a normal middle school girl, is one day stopped on her way to school by a cat eyed man with greenish hair and magatama beads (read: blue seeds) who calls her "Kushinada" and then tries to kill her. Momiji is saved by the sudden appearance of two government officials, one of whom shoots the man in the arm and sends him fleeing.Momiji is intrigued as to why she was referred to as "Kushinada". She discovers that "Kushinada" refers to an ancient princess whose blood holds the power to stop the ancient monsters known as Aragami by sending them to an eternal sleep. Momiji dismisses the idea that she could be such a person, despite the fact she lives with her mother and grandmother in a shrine in Izumo. However, she soon changes her mind after vines begin to appear from every crack and opening attempting to capture her as they whisper "Kushinada".Momiji tries to escape, not knowing that the vines are being employed by a powerful Aragami known as Orochi. Fortunately, she is saved by the man with the magatamas embedded into his hands, who introduces himself as Mamoru Kusanagi. He confronts Orochi using Momiji as bait. The plan fails and the government officials appear again. They reveal themselves to be members of the Terrestrial Administration Center (TAC for short), and manage to subdue Orochi. However, with the last of its strength, it makes a final attempt on Kusanagi.Momiji saves Kusanagi by taking Orochi's blow. Impaled by the Aragami, instead of dying, she is instead fused with the magatama, more specifically identified as a mitama, which gives Momiji the ability to sense the presence of other Aragami. The TAC agents explain that they are an organization dedicated to defeating the Aragami, who seek to destroy humanity. The current Kushinada, Momiji, must aid them because the other Kushinada, Momiji's twin sister, is thought to be dead. Momiji, wishing to discover more about the twin sister she never knew and also to fulfill her destiny, agrees to join the TAC under the protection of Kusanagi, who wishes to destroy his former masters, the Aragami.The story becomes increasingly complex with the appearance of Murakumo, a man with eight mitamas who kills any Aragami he comes across for his own personal reasons. Kusanagi repeatedly attempts to kill Murakumo. Then Momiji's twin Kaede reappears along with a strange energy field in Tokyo, and Murakumo and Kaede's plans soon become clear - they intend to resurrect the god Susano-oh and purify the world of humanity's influences, with Kaede acting as the leader of the movement.There is also a three episode OVA, Blue Seed Beyond (also known as Blue Seed 2), which takes place two years after the end of the TV series. It concerns what seems to be a resurgence of aragami (actually created via biotechnology), and introduces a new character, Valencia Tachibana. Like Kusanagi, she was implanted with a mitama without turning into a full aragami. That last paragraph was copied to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Seed#Plot 2010-02-15.Also has nothing to do with the "sour, yet refreshing" spice from the Lost in Blue games. | |

Simple Solution Won't Work | |
Blue Seed (Manga) / int_16dda55f | comment |
Simple Solution Won't Work: An example in which this trope is a central plot point. If Momiji Fujimiya is sacrificed or assassinated, the Arigami go away. The problem then becomes that the Arigami have constantly come back through the millennia, so sacrificing Momiji is not a permanent solution. Furthermore, there's ways Momiji can die that wouldn't affect the Arigami. Because of this, the members of TAC spend the series seeking a more effective alternative, while constantly fending off Arigami rampages and people trying to kill Momiji (both to try to save Japan and to get rid of the filth mankind has plastered on Japan). | |

The Rival: Kusanagi and Murakumo, both acting as protector to their chosen person. It takes until the final episodes before Kusanagi is strong enough to finally give Murakumo a run for this money. Before then, he could barely land a hit. Yaegashi thinks he's this to Kusanagi for Momiji. | |

Advanced Ancient Humans: An odd example; in this setting, the Japanese archipelago was all but uninhabitable several thousand years ago, and the first inhabitants created the Arigami to all but Terraform the place. Their current rampages are thus as much a Zeroth Law Rebellion as Gaia's Vengeance. | |

Adaptation Expansion: Whereas many anime Overtook the Manga, the manga for Blue Seed was only two volumes, so the anime added some episodes focusing on the characters. The fact that there were also Aragami attacks kept these from being outright Filler. | |

Limited Wardrobe: One omake has Matsudaira wondering why Kusanagi always wears the same clothes and if he ever takes them to be cleaned. This is even more amusing when you consider that Kusanagi's trademark red coat tends to get literally torn into small pieces during his transformations, yet in the next episode it is usually seen again, undamaged. | |

Just Eat Gilligan | |
Blue Seed (Manga) / int_35543514 | comment |
Just Eat Gilligan: A fairly major plot point in the series. If Momiji croaks under normal circumstances, the Arigami go away, and several individuals and groups in the series are attempting to do just that; especially since if she dies within a specially-designed field of "ceramic", the Arigami won't be affected at all. However, aside from the ethical complications of human sacrifice, there's the tiny little fact that the Arigami only became a threat after millennia of dormancy when Momiji and Kaede were born; they were defeated in the past and came back anyway. There's also the implication that the Arigami may be the only thing keeping the Japanese archipelago habitable. Throughout the series, it's seen as the "easy but dangerous and unethical" option and in the final story arc the government snaps up Momiji and nearly goes through with it. Given how high the death toll has gotten by that point Momiji doesn't resist, and it takes a severe Get A Hold Of Yourself Man lecture from her comrades to get her back to finding a real solution. | |

Meaningful Name: Kusanagi Mamoru. Mamoru mean "to protect," and Kusanagi is the holy sword of the Japanese emperors, which apparently once belonged to Susano-o. It means the grass cutting sword (long story). Murakumo, the cloud cluster sword, is another name for the same sword and is the name of another character. He's trying to kill Kusanagi. Also in the second episode, Momiji (whose name means maple leaf) leaves little maple-leaf shaped pastries for the TAC team in order to endear them to her. | |

Offscreen Breakup | |
Blue Seed (Manga) / int_6fc530a4 | comment |
Offscreen Breakup: Happens between Blue Seed 1 and Blue Seed 2 for Koume and Yaegashi. Momiji directly asks Koume at one point why they broke up, to which Koume replies that she and Yaegashi had been talking about getting married and having kids, with the inference that Yaegashi may have proposed. She got got cold feet and broke it off, even going so far as to transfer divisions and relocate in order to get away. After Momiji cries that if Koume loves him then it's the right thing to do, Koume reconsiders and by the end of the episode she accepts his proposal, telling him to get her a ring "worth at least three month's salary." | |

They Call Me MISTER Tibbs!: Yaegashi whines throughout the second episode that he's the only person in the TAC to not be addressed with an honorific, specifically "san" ("Mr."). He tries correcting his teammates on this several times, but they all brush him off. This becomes a plot point again in another early episode when he complains that no one in the TAC respects him or takes him seriously. | |

Cultural Translation | |
Blue Seed (Manga) / int_7d49d74a | comment |
Cultural Translation: The Creature-Hunter Organization would be more appropriately translated as the "National Land Management Bureau" or NLMB - the group's In-Universe reputation is a bunch of paper pushers, and the Masquerade keeps most from knowing about the Arigami until the final story arc. However, Western audiences expect a group of monster hunters to have an appropriately grandiose name, hence their official title of "Terrestrial Administration Center" or TAC. | |

Downtime Downgrade | |
Blue Seed (Manga) / int_ce195b81 | comment |
Downtime Downgrade: Subplot of the Blue Seed 2 OVA series epilogue. In the opening of the first episode Momiji and Kusanagi's relationship is heavily on the rocks, with Momiji outwardly worrying that Kusanagi will break up with her. She even tries to sleep with him at one point and he rejects her, calling her a kid. The rest of the OVA deals with the subplot of Kusanagi trying to deal with the fact that his body could be dangerous for Momiji, should they become more intimate. At the end of the second episode of the OVA it's clear that while Kusanagi will continue to date Momiji, and that they definitely love each other, the relationship itself is still in shaky ground. However it's shown that both are growing to overcome this, so the trope is Downplayed. Koume and Yaegashi also suffered this, but the two reconcile and even make plans to get engaged by the end of the second episode. | |

Theme Naming: Besides the Meaningful Names, every important character is named after trees. The twins Kaede and Momiji are named by two words for the same tree, the maple. | |

Brick Joke: The first omake has Kunikida buying sexy pictures of the TAC girls from Kusanagi, with the ones of Momiji still being developed. Then Momiji shoots them with a machine gun. In the thirteenth and final omake, those photos are finally developed and seen just before Momiji again shoots them with a machine gun. | |
