Aika-chan no Chikyuu
愛華ちゃんの地球
Synopsis
12-year-old Aika Tsubota's posthumous eco-manga became a charity-sponsored anime and 1995 environmental video series.
The author of the manga Secrets of the World was only 12 years old, and she died days after completing it. Aika Tsubota's parents published her environmentally themed story in her memory, and this one-shot anime was the eventual result, sponsored in part by a charity opposing the pollution of the oceans. In 1995, Secrets of the World itself was animated as a two-part video series under the auspices of the Japanese Department of the Environment. (Source: The Anime Encyclopedia)
