Texhnolyze is a Japanese anime television series that was directed by Hiroshi Hamasaki, based on a screenplay that was written by Chiaki Konaka, and produced by Yasuyuki Ueda. Yoshitoshi ABe was responsible for the series' original character design. The action takes place in the thriving but decaying underground metropolis of Lux, which is the setting for these events. The inhabitants of Lux refer to their home as "The City" and think of it as a living entity in its own right. The Organo, a strictly professional conglomerate with ties to the criminal underworld in the prosthetics business; the Union, a fanatical populist group interfering with Organo's affairs; and Racan, a marauding group of Texhnolyzed youths, all compete for control of the city. The Organo is a strictly professional conglomerate with ties to the criminal underworld in the prosthetics business. The story follows a large cast of characters throughout the series, but the main focus is on Ichise, a stoic prize fighter who sacrifices his arm and leg to appease an angry promoter; Onishi, a young but level-headed executive of the Organo who is opposed by a large number of people; and Ran, a young girl who possesses a very significant gift that has repercussions for the entirety of the city. As the characters work through their struggles to accept the obstacles that have been placed in front of them, they are witnesses to significant occurrences that will determine whether or not the city will continue to exist. There were a total of twenty episodes of Texhnolyze that were shown on Fuji Television between the dates of April 16, 2003 and September 24, 2003. The DVD release includes two episodes that are described as being "secret."
