Blue Drop (ブルー ドロップ, Burū Doroppu?) is a Japanese science fiction yuri manga created by Akihito Yoshitomi. It comprises five chapters that were serialized in the shōnen manga magazine Dengeki Comic Gao! from June 2004 to December 2005, and later collected into a single volume. In 2007 Yoshitomi began to work on a new Blue Drop manga, titled Blue Drop: Tenshi no Bokura (BLUE DROP ~天使の僕ら~?), which was serialized in the manga magazine Champion Red between February 19, 2007 and January 19, 2008. A Blue Drop anime series directed by Masahiko Ohkura and produced by Asahi Production and BeSTACK aired in Japan between October 2, 2007 and December 25, 2007 under the title Blue Drop: Tenshitachi no Gikyoku (BLUE DROP ~天使達の戯曲~?).
All the Blue Drop stories revolve around a war between humanity and the Arume (アルメ?), an alien race consisting solely of women. Both manga series are set after the war while the anime is set before. The two manga series feature some degree of sexual content; the second manga being considerably more explicit than the original one.

Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or drop:
“The blue we bathe in is the blue we breathe. The blue we breathe, I fear, is what we want from life and only find in fiction. For the voyeur, fiction is whats called going all the way.”
—William Gass (b. 1924)
“Man is only a reed, the weakest in nature; but he is a thinking reed. There is no need for the whole universe to take up arms to crush him: a vapor, a drop of water is enough to kill him. But even if the universe were to crush him, man would still be nobler than his slayer, because he knows that he is dying and the advantage the universe has over him. The universe knows nothing of this.”
—Blaise Pascal (16231662)
