  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Sol Bianca is two-episode OVA series by AIC, from 1990 (first episode) and 1992 (second episode). Also, a six-episode OVA series titled Taiyō no Fune Sol Bianca (Ship of the Sun Sol Bianca), was made in 1999-2000.

The series follows the adventures of the spaceship Sol Bianca and its crew.

This show provides examples of:[]

  • Amazon Brigade
  • Completely Different Title — When Pioneer released the second series, they called it Sol Bianca: The Legacy.
  • Conspicuous CG — In the second series.
  • Cool Ship — The Titular Vessel.
  • Earth-That-Was
  • Foreign Language Title — It's apparently supposed to mean "white sun" in Spanish and/or Italian ("bianca" is the feminine adjective form of "white" in Italian and "sol" is Spanish for "sun"; the correct phrase would be "sol blanco" in Spanish and "sole bianco" in Italian).
  • Laser Blade — The ship's weapon is some kind of glowing yellow string (it forms curve shapes when in use) that cuts anything it touches.
  • Left Hanging — The second episode of the original series ends with an antagonist character bringing someone out of suspended animation. We never find out more about this, though, because the series ends there, and the second series seems to be either a Prequel or an Alternate Continuity.
  • Pirate Girl
  • The Quiet One — Janny in the second series.
  • Space Is an Ocean — When the titular ship enters / leaves hyperspace, it resembles a submarine diving / resurfacing.
  • Space Pirates
  • Spaceship Girl — June seems to be something like a robotic terminal of the ship's computer.
  • Starship Luxurious — The Sol Bianca has an onboard garden.
  • Theme Naming — The given names of the main characters are month names or variations thereof: April, Feb, Janny, June, May. There's also a solar system with planets named Uno and Tres.
  • Viewer Gender Confusion — In the second series, Janny is very masculine in behavior and appearance, and has a relatively low-pitched voice. (The seiyuu has also voiced some younger male characters, including Sasshi Imamiya from Abenobashi Mahou Shoutengai.)
