The 12-episode anime Between the Sky and Sea is now streaming on Crunchyroll, complete with an English dub. The series, animated by TMS Entertainment, plunges viewers into a future where Earth's oceans are barren, forcing humanity to establish space fishing operations.
Set in the coastal city of Onomichi, Hiroshima, the story centers on six young women recruited into the Onomichi Universe Fishery Union. They train to become space fishermen, a profession in high demand following new equal employment laws. The anime blends adventure and sci-fi with themes of growth and camaraderie among its primarily female cast.
While the premise offers a unique take on fishing and space exploration, the show leans into "cute girls doing cute things" tropes. Viewers can expect a lighthearted adventure focusing on the characters' journey as they adapt to their unusual careers in the vastness of space.
