The episodes of the anime series Shikabane Hime are based on the manga series Shikabane Hime by Yoshiichi Akahito. Produced by Feel and Gainax, the first season, also known as Shikabane Hime: Aka, premiered in Japan on AT-X on October 2, 2008 and ran until December 25, 2008. The episodes also air on BS11, Chiba TV, KBS Kyoto, Sun TV, Tokyo MX, TV Aichi, TV Kanagawa and TV Saitama. A second season, subtitled Shikabane Hime: Kuro, has been announced and began airing in Japan in January 2009. A series of Japanese DVDs, with each of them containing 4 episodes, will start being released on January 7, 2009.
The series is licensed for North American distribution and release by Funimation Entertainment. On October 24, 2008, the first thirteen episodes began airing online with English subtitles through Funimation's official YouTube, Joost, and Hulu.com channels, with higher end downloadable versions released on the company's own website. Funimation noted that they hope this relatively quick release through online means will help prevent piracy. Traditionally, according to the president of Funimation Entertainment Gen Fukunaga, "by the time a licensing deal is signed to bring a series from Japan to the U.S. the episodes are already available as illegal downloads."

Famous quotes containing the words list of, episodes and/or list:
“Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“What is a novel if not a conviction of our fellow-men’s existence strong enough to take upon itself a form of imagined life clearer than reality and whose accumulated verisimilitude of selected episodes puts to shame the pride of documentary history?”
—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
“Feminism is an entire world view or gestalt, not just a laundry list of women’s issues.”
—Charlotte Bunch (b. 1944)
