Hakugei: Legend of the Moby Dick is a Japanese animated TV series based on Herman Melville's original novel Moby-Dick. This version, though, moves the story to a futuristic outer space setting, where the "whales" are actually giant abandoned spaceships. It aired from 1997 to 1999, though new episodes were put on hold from November 1997 to October 1998. The series ran for 26 episodes, released on DVD in the USA by ADV Films across six discs.
