蒼きウル
[b]Aoki Uru[/b] ([i]"Blue Uru"[/i]) was a [[1990s_(style)|90s]] proposed sequel to the 80s epic [[science fiction]] anime film [[Honneamise No Tsubasa]].

It was supposed to be set 50 years after the events of Honneamise no Tsubasa.

Due to lack of funds the project never materialized. However, official production art from [[Gainax]] still exists.

Gainax has periodically attempted to restart [i]Aoki Uru[/i], such as releasing a 1998 CD with storyboards, an official script, several hundred pieces of art and a 2000 release of a mod to the [i]Microsoft Flight Simulator[/i] PC game in Japan. 

According to [[Anno Hideaki]] some elements from [i]Aoki Uru[/i] were also used in the development of the critically acclaimed [[Neon Genesis Evangelion]].

It was announced that Gainax is finally making an "anime film of the long-dormant project":http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-03-20/gainax-makes-blue-uru-film-with-honneamise-yamaga-sadamoto with a yet unknown release date. Yamaga Hiroyuki is writing and directing the movie with character designs by [[Sadamoto Yoshiyuki]]. They both worked together in [i]Honneamise no Tsubasa[/i].
