Figure 17 - Tsubasa & Hikaru (フィギュア17つばさ＆ヒカル, Figyua Sebuntīn Tsubasa ando Hikaru) is a Japanese anime television series animated by OLM, Inc. and directed by Naohito Takahashi.[4] The series features character designs by Yuriko Chiba and music by member of the rock band The Alfee Toshihiko Takamizawa, and ran a monthly one-hour time slot per episode rather than the standard weekly half hour time slot.

Figure 17 follows Tsubasa Shiina, a young girl who discovers a crashed alien spacecraft piloted by an injured alien known as D.D. who had been transporting the seeds of monsters known as Maguars. After these events, Tsubasa along with her newly formed clone Hikaru Shiina and D.D. join forces to fight the remaining Maguars now present on planet Earth. Episodes of Figure 17 also frequently observe the school lives of the titular characters Tsubasa and Hikaru, exploring their developing bond as well as themes involving coming of age and emotional connection.[4][3]
