「大人女子のアニメタイム」の原点は、女性作家が紡ぎだす素晴らしい短編小説にあります。それらの小説を、想像力をかきたてるアニメーション映像化して、大人の女性たちが物語の世界に浸れるような番組があったら面白いだろうな、という思いつき（啓示？）が発端です。短編小説の魅力の１つは短い時間で物語世界に引き込んでくれるという贅沢さにあると思います。
「夕餉（ゆうげ）」はまさにそういう短編小説です。駆け落ち同然で男のところに転がりこんだ主人公の美々。「私は、男に食べさせる」 というドキッとするセリフで始まるこの物語は、食と性をめぐる官能的な物語であり、男女の恋愛物語であり、生きる意味をみつける物語であり…。そんな全てがわずか36ページの小説の中にあります。そして「大人女子のアニメタイム~夕餉」の25分間のアニメーションの中にも！山田詠美さんの素晴らしいフレーズの数々にも出会えます。「きちんと下ごしらえをされれば、私の体だっておいしくなる」…どんな映像になるでしょうか？！
3月10日（日）22：50～NHK BSプレミアムにて放送

Otona Joshi no Anime Time is an animation program targeted to women above 30 called Otona Joshi. The word Otona Joshi literally means grown up girls, and the word represents women who are eager to grow, learn, stay pretty and fashionable, enjoy life, seeking real love etc…regardless of their ages and their social status(single, married, with kids, no kids etc…). Therefore, Otona Joshi no Anime Time literally means Animation Time For Grown up Girls.
Each show presents 25 min. complete short story based on works by award winning & best selling female novelists in Japan. The show visualizes deep and ambivalent feelings of women in beautiful animation, a marriage of Japanese literature and animation! In each story, you may find part of yourself.
The idea was proposed by Curiouscope, and is co-produced with NHK Enterprises and NHK.
3 new stories will be aired in March 2013 on NHK BS Premium channel. (c) NHK/NEP/CURIOUSCOPE
