#BLOODY SPACE DROP ANIME SERIES#
Unlike both manga stories, the Blue Drop: Tenshitachi no Gikyoku anime series is set before the war. Set one year after the war, it focuses in the relationship between Shōta, a normal high-school student, and Kenzō, Shōta's former-male best friend who has been turned into a girl by the aliens. This manga also deals with the first experiments done on human beings by the aliens specifically experiments concerning sex change.

The aliens' sexual behaviour is dealt with even more prominently (and explicitly) in the Blue Drop: Tenshi no Bokura manga, which shows its consequences upon the human social structure. All of them have blue eyes and their blood turns milky white when it touches air, but their main characteristic lies in their gender: they are all female, and their sexual orientation is homosexual. In addition, the story introduces the aliens' traits and behavior. Most of the chapters follow the conflict between the military and the resistance, which tries to save those who have been given the vaccine, as well as the relationships between the people involved. During this time the military forces them to confront the weapon remnants, an action that usually ends up in the children's death. The military uses an experimental vaccine that gives human children special abilities for a determined period of time. This is the main premise of the original Blue Drop manga, which is set around a thousand years after the war. Along the years, the remnants of this weaponry have become dangerous creatures which the government (run by the aliens) has to deal with. The decisive factor in the Arume's victory is the use of biological weapons and a modified version of an alien toy called Emiru Force ( エミル フォース, Emiru Fōsu).

In 2009 the aliens take control of the Japanese government, which sets the backstory for the Blue Drop storylines. The war against the Arume is set from 2000 to 2008, ending with the aliens winning the conflict.
