After Kia Asamiya created Steam Detectives for his son, he looked yet again… Read Full Bio ↴After Kia Asamiya created Steam Detectives for his son, he looked yet again into an unfamiliar genre, this time for his daughter, who was a fan of Magical Girls. He came up with a story that brought the typical wand-waving, miniskirt-wearing junior high girl 20 Minutes into the Future by making her a regular girl in the real world and a magical girl online.

Corrector Yui (Japanese: コレクターユイ, Hepburn: Korekutā Yui) is a magical girl anime series created by Kia Asamiya. The anime series was produced by Nippon Animation and broadcast on NHK Educational TV from 1999 to 2000. It was licensed for North American release by Viz Media. This series has aired on Cartoon Network outside the United States. In the US, the San Jose market licensed KTEH aired the series in its English-subtitled version as part of its Sunday Late-Prime (9pm-after 12) Sci-Fi programming line-up in the 90s.

Two manga series were also released: a two volume series by Asamiya and published in Ciao from 1999 to 2000; and a nine volume two-part series by Keiko Okamoto which was published by NHK Publishing. The second manga series was licensed in North America and translated into English by Tokyopop beginning in 2002.

This series follows a basic magical-girl progression, and falls into many of the magical girl tropes common in the late nineties. The series is innovative amongst magical girl series in that Yui's powers all derive from not just the technology she uses, but are incorporated entirely into her on-line avatar, with no real powers granted outside of the network.

    Jauh di kejauhan, melewati semua waktu,
    rasanya aku bisa kembali ke masa itu.
    Anda tahu, semua yang ada di masa lalu telah memudar,
    saya masih ingat betapa saya sangat membutuhkan Anda.

Yume no hazamade imademo deauwa

    Mimpi-mimpi itu akan menjadi kenyataan, sekarang setelah aku bertemu denganmu!

Anda dapat menemukan mirai wa ugokidasu hazudakara
Eien untuk iu bashoni ikitai itsunohika

    Sekarang setelah Anda mulai, masa depan kita bergerak karena
    Kami ingin pergi ke tempat yang disebut "Keabadian," tetapi kapan?

Iki isoideru senaka wo miteta
Te ni oenaito omotteita
Sugoku aishite hidokunikunda
Doushite anata wo asondano

    Saya melihat ke belakang begitu cepat untuk melihat
    apa yang ada di tangan saya sudah selesai, saya ingat.
    Cinta yang begitu kuat tersembunyi begitu jauh,
    Mengapa Anda bermain dengan itu?

Imamo kotae sagasenai dakedomo

    Jadi sekarang saya tidak akan lagi mencari jawaban.

Kasanaru omoidekara mirai wa umarekuru hazudakara
annani tsuyokunareta jibun wo wasurenaiwa

    Karena ingatannya sangat bertumpuk, masa depan kita telah lahir.
    Begitu kuatnya, saya tidak akan melupakannya.

The songs from this anime have stuck with me for so long, even though I had long forgotten where I heard them from. So when this song started playing, that feel kicks in right away.

Back then, boys didn't usually admit to watching this sort of girly anime, so it didn't get much appreciation among my childhood friends. (And sadly, it seems that it's never gotten too much attention neither.)
I have never been particularly drawn by anime, but this stands out as one of those few I always remember, and I gotta say I like it very much. :)

It was fate!~ <3 Ahh, lol and like a couple weeks later I went into the nearby Gamestop, which I normally passed by, but I followed my gut feeling and came across a used Cardcaptor Sakura movie that I hadn't seen b4!! ~ <3 I got to watch Japanese dub for the first time!

@ShibahimePlayDub Go in "zerochan.com". (:

@ze-ce.cra_

This sounds kinda too introspective and bittersweet for an opening theme.. Which is unique, I think the ending theme was a little bit more uplifting than this. Both still sounds bittersweet though...

@ModernF

I don’t think every anime should have to sound like a standard upbeat J-Pop song. I appreciate how mature, unique, and iconic this opening song is. I haven’t seen the anime before, but its opening makes the anime give off more “mature” vibes compared to if it had a generic high pitched Magical Girl anime song which most Magical Girls for children audiences have.

@ze-ce.cra_

@@ModernF Totally agree.. The unique factor is just perfect in this opening theme. This, and the 1st ending theme are two of my absolute favourite anime theme of all time because of how bittersweet it sounds, and it remind me of my childhood when I used to watch this anime. I don't follow Corrector Yui too much though, but I often watch it without really having any context, just for the sake of watching anime for enjoy & fun.. oh nostalgia...
