Nadia - The Secret of Blue Water is a Japanese animated television series inspired by the works of Jules Verne, particularly Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and the exploits of Captain Nemo. The series was created by NHK, Toho and Korad, from a concept of Hayao Miyazaki, and directed by Hideaki Anno of Gainax.

The series follows a young inventor named Jean and a former circus performer named Nadia, who wishes to return to her home in Africa.

Fushigi no Umi no Nadia - Inherit the Blue Water starts off at the Paris Exposition Universelle (World's Fair) in 1889 where the Eiffel Tower is unveiled to the masses and serves as the gateway into the Fair. The protagonist takes a train to the venue and eventually meets up with Nadia and cohorts. After an encounter with a pair of hoodlums and their redheaded mistress, Nadia and player are inducted into the crew of a submarine named the Eltrium.

Part interactive adventure and full-blown submarine action game, Nadia serves as an engrossing experience for fans of the animation. After pressing "Start" at the main menu, the option to hone one's submarine skills may be tested in the Tutorial which contains six lessons for maneuvering a submarine and attacking enemy subs. The action portion of the game is viewed from an overhead perspective where the sub is represented by a little icon which surges through a grid-based ocean. The left Dual Shock analog thumbstick controls direction while the right analog thumbstick provides thrust. Two meters which measure Speed and Shield are located on the lower left corner of the screen. Four options are available to the submarine crew during battle: Attack / Repair / Info / Electora.
