Georgie!

Georgie! (ジョージィ!, Jōjī!) is a manga series, written by Mann Izawa and illustrated by Yumiko Igarashi. It was serialized from 1982 to 1984 in the Shōjo Comic manga magazine.

The series was adapted in 1983 into an anime television series, Lady Georgie (レディジョージィ, Redi Jōjī), by Tokyo Movie Shinsha, which originally premiered across TV Asahi and spanned 45 episodes.

The animated series was released in the United States by Discotek Media on Standard Definition Blu-Ray in Japanese audio with English subtitles.

Georgie is a charming, lively girl who grew up in Australia. She is very much loved by her father and adored by her two brothers, Abel and Arthur. Her mother, on the other hand, seems to harbor resentment over Georgie especially after the death of her father, for which she is blamed.

Growing up, Georgie noticed her hair color is different from those of her family. While everyone else had brunette hair, hers is blonde. Eventually, the mother broke the news to her that she was not part of the family and was actually adopted. A gold bracelet is her only clue to the past. After gaining some information about her birth parents who are British, she decided to go to London to find out more about her past. She was willingly accompanied by her brothers. Both brothers were secretly in love with her but had been trying to keep it because she is their adoptive sister. Apart from wanting to learn about her parents, Georgie also has another goal, which is to find her lost love, Lowell, who had left Australia and moved to London some years ago. Along with her brothers, Georgie experiences both the kindness and cruelty of the real world in London, England.

The story progresses with her search for her real family along with the love triangle that develops between her adoptive brothers as well as Lowell.

The end of the plot drastically changes and is different from the manga series on which it has been based. While in the animated series, there is a happy and quite ambiguous ending the manga has a more dramatic ending.

In both media, the story is the same from the beginning (except for minor details) but near the point of the ending, it changes when Georgie is forced to leave her first love, Lowell because of his tuberculosis, which can be healed only by an expensive operation that they can't pay because of lack of money.
