The epic that is on everyone’s mind right now is The Odyssey.
It is a legendary tale in which Odysseus, also known as Ulysses, faces unimaginable obstacles, from monsters to vengeful gods, while trying to return home after the ten-year Trojan War.
The story has withstood the test of time simply because it is so interesting and captivating. In July 2026, Academy Award-winning director Christopher Nolan brought his own star-studded adaptation of the epic to theatres.
But long before Nolan’s film, there was an animated series that gave a completely new meaning to the phrase “modern retelling.”
Ulysses 31, also known in Japan as Space Legend Ulysses 31, was a spectacular science-fiction anime that retold the story of Odysseus with one major twist.
