Within 50 years, humanity has constructed a base on the Core, dubbed ''Watcher's Nest''. Not long after, an expedition beneath the planet's surface is attacked by a Ghoul - your garden-variety CosmicHorror, origins and intentions unknown. The purpose of ''Watcher's Nest'' is now twofold: Monitor the Core, and prevent any further incursion from the Ghoul. Autopsies and genetic research conducted by a group called ''Alchemy'' reveal startling results when Ghoul genes are combined with animal DNA -- and later with human DNA, resulting in the project being officially closed down.

http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/626_8937.jpg A [[TwelveEpisodeAnime 13-episode anime series]] developed by RADIX and initially broadcast in 2003, ''Divergence Eve'' is rather controversial due to its excessively busty characters and use of fanservice (thanks to Toshinari Yamashita of ''Amazing Nurse Nanako'' fame - or infamy) in a story that would otherwise have been taken more seriously.

* ChildSoldiers: Kotoko

* [[spoiler:NotUsingTheZWord: They are zombies. "Energy is sent to their brains while their bodies remain.]]

* PutOnABus: And memory-wiped to boot. Poor [[spoiler:Suzanna]].

* TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow: [[spoiler: In the final episode [=LeBlanc=]]] learns of all the knowledge in the entire universe and his head explodes.

* AnimeAnatomy: Averted with nipples but straight with the groin.

The original series was followed by a second 13-episode series, ''Divergence Eve: Misaki Chronicles'', in 2004.

* TokenGirl: Kotoko

* TokenGirl:Kotoko

* ChildSoldiers: Kotoko-01

* SoYouWantToLiveForever: [[spoiler:[=LeBlanc's=] ultimate goal is to get unlimited power through the knowledge of the universe.]]

* TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow: [[spoiler: In the final episode [=LeBlanc learns of all the knowledge in the entire universe and his head explodes]].

* HumanJars: Hundreds of them [[spoiler:kept by [=LeBlanc=] and, worst of all, they aren't dead.

* NoHuggingNoKissing: Except for the MakeOutFakeOut there's no touching at all. No romance either.

* TheseAreThingsManWasNotSupposedToKnow: [[spoiler: In the final episode [=LeBlanc learns of all the knowledge in the entire universe and his head explodes]].

This anime provides examples of:

* AfraidOfNeedles: Luxandra.

* BetterThanItSounds: Ignore the description on the back of the box. It's not an action series, and the fanservice is incidental.

* DarkSkinnedBrunette: Luxandra Frail.
* TheDitz: Misaki.
* {{Dojikko}}: Misaki again.

* EverybodyRemembersTheStripper: People tend to take one look at the box art and shun the series entirely.

* GoodScarsEvilScars: Luxandra Frail, though she actually subverts it by being a good character with evil scars.

* MagnificentBastard: [=LeBlanc=].

* NightmareFuel: [[spoiler:Luxandra's death, as she is eaten alive, kicking, screaming and gurgling]].
** It's also safe to assume that [[spoiler: Misaki]] saw the whole thing.
*** Well, she technically gets better, given that [[spoiler:time gets rewound.]]

* TokenLoli: Kotoko.
* TomatoInTheMirror: This should be obvious.
