List of Porphy no Nagai Tabi episodes

Below is the episode synopsis table associated with the anime adaptation of the 1955 French novel Les Orphelins de Simitra (The Orphans of Simitra) which is the literary brainchild of the author Paul-Jacques Bonzon; the novel's hefty emphasis on the lengthy journey across Europe prosecuted by the protagonist Porphyras "Porphy" Patagos inspires the advent of a new title — Porphy no Nagai Tabi — which has been subsequently given to the 2008 anime adaption. Porphy no Nagai Tabi is the professional brainchild of director Tomomitsu Mochizuki who also doubled as the sound director in collaboration with series composer Kunii Kei who was responsible for the screenplay using character designs synthesized by Akahori Shigeo who doubled as the animation director while under the employment of the Nippon Animation studio—the Sunday evening broadcast thereof from 19:30 to 20:00 on Fuji Television from 6 January 2008 to 28 December 2008 designating it as the 25th member of Nippon Animation's children's anthology series World Masterpiece Theater.
