help Birdy the Mighty FAQ

Should I watch the Birdy the Mighty OVA or the Decode TV series first?

The 1996 two-episode OVA came first, but the 2008 TV series Birdy the Mighty: Decode by A-1 Pictures is the fuller adaptation, continuing into Decode:02 in 2009. Most viewers start with Decode for the complete story.

Who created Birdy the Mighty?

It's based on the manga by Masami Yuki, who is also known as the creator of Mobile Police Patlabor. The original manga began running in the mid-1980s.

What's the body-sharing premise of Birdy the Mighty?

Average middle schooler Tsutomu is accidentally killed while caught in an interplanetary agent's chase, so Birdy shares her body with him to keep him alive. The two must juggle his exam-student life with her alien-law-enforcement missions, switching forms as needed.

Does the Birdy the Mighty manga have an ending?

Masami Yuki's manga has run on and off for decades after starting in the mid-1980s and was revised and restarted along the way. The anime adaptations only cover portions of it, so the manga goes well beyond the Decode seasons.
