Eureka Seven, known as Psalms of Planets Eureka seveN (交響詩篇エウレカセブン, Kōkyōshihen Eureka Sebun) in Japan, is a mecha anime TV series by Bones. Eureka Seven tells the story of Renton Thurston and the outlaw group Gekkostate, his relationship with the enigmatic mecha pilot Eureka, and the mystery of the Coralians.

Bandai produced three video games based on Eureka Seven; two of them are based on events prior to the show, while the third is based on the first half of the show. Both the original concept of the anime and the video game Eureka Seven vol.1: New Wave have been adapted into manga series, as well.

Eureka Seven won awards at the 2006 Tokyo Anime Fair for Best Television Series, Screenplay, and Character Design. Anime Insider voted it "Best DVD Series of the Year" in 2006.

The series' origins can be traced to a concept of a mecha anime series Bandai proposed to studio BONES. At first, the studio rejected it, but later reversed its position because it had already planned to create an anime using mecha designs by Shoji Kawamori. With the appointment of director Tomoki Kyoda and writer Dai Sato, Bandai's proposal was more or less scrapped and the current incarnation of Eureka Seven was brought to life. The series was Kyoda's first as chief director for a TV series; earlier, he had directed RahXephon's movie adaption, also for Bones. RahXephon creator and director Yutaka Izubuchi provided additional design works for Eureka Seven, as well.
