List of Eureka Seven episodes

This is a list of episodes for the anime series Eureka Seven. The series ran for a total of fifty episodes, as well as a recap special titled "Navigation ray=out", which recaps the first half of the series. The first episode aired in Japan on April 17, 2005, and the final episode on April 2, 2006. The series was later picked up by Cartoon Network for the United States market and began airing on April 15, 2006. Cartoon Network aired the last episode on April 28, 2007, replacing Eureka's dialogue and the final scene with Axel and the children with the opening and ending themes. On May 6, 2007, they re-aired the episode with the original opening and ending content intact.

Almost all of the series' episode titles correspond to real songs, composed by Japanese or foreign artists.^[1] Some of these have been stated to be intentional references (including "Blue Monday"),^[2] and other phrases previously only existed as song titles. However, it is unclear whether every episode title is intended as a musical reference.
