The ''Haibane Renmei'' box set released in [[North America]] by [[Geneon]].

Haibane Renmei is a Japanese animated television series. It was directed by Tomokazu Tokoro, animated by the Japanese animation studio Radix, and produced by Yasuyuki Ueda. The episodes are based on the brief dōjinshi The Haibane of Old Home by Yoshitoshi ABe, expanding on the original concepts over thirteen episodes. ABe also wrote the screenplay for the anime. The plot of the episodes follows Rakka, a girl who hatches from a cocoon in a strange town with no memory of who she was before.

The episodes aired from October 10, 2002, to December 19, 2002, on Animax and Fuji Television. The first five ran two weeks apart, and the remaining eight were shown weekly in back-to-back pairs.{{cite web | trans-title = Haibane Renmei | access-date = 8 June 2023 | archive-date = 13 June 2023 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20230613222844/https://mediaarts-db.bunka.go.jp/id/C10284 | url-status = live

The soundtrack album, Hanenone, was released on December 30, 2002, in Japan and August 5, 2003, in the United States.
