This is another anime part of Nippon Animation's World Masterpiece Theater and it is set in Australia. It is an anime adaptation based on the 1982 novel Southern Rainbow by the Australian writer called Phyllis Piddington. On June 5th, 2022, I started work on this anime.
Lucy-May of the Southern Rainbow (南の虹のルーシー, Minami no Niji no Rūshī, "Lucy of the Southern Rainbow") is a Japanese anime series by Nippon Animation. This 1982 adaptation is part of the studio's popular World Masterpiece Theater franchise, based on the 1982 novel Southern Rainbow by Australian writer Phyllis Piddington (1910–2001), and tells the story of a young girl named Lucy and the hardships and excitement she and her family encounter when they move from England to Adelaide in Australia to start a farm.
The anime has been dubbed into French, Italian, Arabic, Spanish, German, and Persian, but it didn't release in Australia because most Aussies have never heard of it.
Another adaptation of the story, written by Ken Wakasaki as a tie-in to the anime, was also published in Japan in 1982.
