My-HiME (舞-HiME, Mai-HiME) is an anime series, created by Sunrise. Directed by Masakazu Obara and written by Hiroyuki Yoshino, the series originally premiered in Japan on TV Tokyo from September 2004 to March 2005.
The My-HiME manga follows an alternate storyline at Fuka Academy. It was first serialized in Akita Shoten's Shōnen Champion and later published in North America by Tokyopop. An anime spin-off, entitled My-Otome (舞-乙HiME), premiered across Japan from October 2005 to March 2006. This series contains many characters with the same (first) name and similar appearance as the characters of My-HiME, but it is set in a far future timeline.
A trailer for a Mai-Hime movie was included in the first DVD of Mai-Otome, with the title Fuuka Wars or The Great Battle of Fuuka. However, this trailer was revealed to be a fake, with a release date of 20006[sic]. Fan response to the trailer was positive.
The recently announced manga will be titled My-HiME EXA.
