* ''Series/AreYouBeingServed'': In the summer of 1976, a stage adaptation ran at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool. Directed by Robert Redfarn, Creator/JohnInman, Creator/MollieSugden, Creator/FrankThornton, Creator/WendyRichard, and Creator/NicholasSmith reprised their characters while Mr. Lucas, Mr. Grainger, and Mr. Mash were recast. The play had basically the same plot as [[Film/AreYouBeingServed the film version]] which would debut the next year, though Young Mr. Grace's role was omitted entirely and Mr. Mash had less to do than Mr. Harman in the film. The play has occasionally been run at other theatres since.

2.5D began in the 1990's with series like the Sailor Moon musicals, and Sakura Wars. In the late 2010's, it has become its own vibrant corner of the anime world, with almost 200 plays produced in 2018. The label 2.5D was coined in 2015 by the producer of the Tenimyu series. They are called 2.5D because they exist between the 2D world of anime and the 3D world of regular theatre.

How do new fans catch up? Another unique point about 2.5D is that the plays usually have short runs, followed by a bluray release. Popular series like Touken Ranbu and Ensemble Stars will run for 2-3 months and tour throughout Japan and even overseas, while other plays will often only run for a week. 2.5D combines the focuses of live theater and video media in ways that other productions don't often do. This means the actors have to act for the camera and the back row simultaneously.
