Full Moon o Sagashite (をさがして, Furu Mūn wo Sagashite, lit. "Looking For Full Moon", alternatively titled Full Moon in English) is a Japanese anime series based on the shōjo manga by Arina Tanemura. Produced by Studio Deen. The series originally aired on TV Tokyo in Japan from April 6, 2002 to March 29, 2003, consisting of 52 episodes.
Viz Media licensed the anime and released the first 28 episodes (with the dub produced by Blue Water Studios) on DVD between 2006 to 2007. The songs are subtitled only, resulting in a dub that switches between English dialogue and Japanese singing. Due to low sales, Viz Media canceled the rest of the DVDs, leaving the rest of the episodes unreleased. It was unconfirmed if the rest of the series was dubbed until AnimEigo rescued the series and released the complete series with the rest of the English dub on Blu-ray in 2025.
