Secret of Cerulean Sand (パタパタ飛行船の冒険 Patapata Hikousen no Bouken) is a 26-episode anime TV series. It is about Jane Buxton, a 15-year-old English girl, a visionary ahead of her time who dreams of building a flying machine. The series documents her journey through the Near East to find her brother. It is set in the late 19th century where impossible technologies such as landships and "floating liquid" exist side by side in this exciting steampunk world.
The series is loosely based on two works by Jules Verne; his posthumous 1919 novel The Barsac Mission (L’Étonnante Aventure de la mission Barsac, consisting of two volumes - Book 1, Into the Niger Bend and Book 2, City in the Sahara) as well as his 1896 novel Facing the Flag (Face au drapeau).
