The Vision of Escaflowne (Tenku no Esukafurone or Escaflowne of the Heavens) is a 26-episode anime television series by Sunrise. It originally aired in Japan between 1996-04-02 and 1996-09-24. It has elements from the genres of shojo, shonen, romance, and mecha, and has since inspired a shonen and shojo manga series, and a Escaflowne theatrical movie.

This series focuses on the heroine, Hitomi Kanzaki, and her adventures after she is transported to the world of Gaea, a mysterious planet where she can see the Earth and moon in the sky. On Gaea, Earth is known as the Mystic Moon ( Japanese: ??? maboroshi no tsuki or Phantom Moon). The design of this world mixes fantasy elements such as knights and medieval fashion with science-fiction technology such as floating ships and the giant armors known as Guymelefs. The latent psychic powers of Hitomi are enhanced on Gaea and she quickly becomes embroiled in the conflicts between the Zaibach Empire and several more peaceful countries. As the series progresses, many of the characters' pasts and motivations, as well as the true nature of the planet Gaea are revealed. An important part of this anime are the huge mecha battlesuits, called Guymelefs, which are used by the Knights of this world to battle each other. Escaflowne, which is mentioned in the title, is one of those Guymelefs.
