Most young women have lots of obsessions, but Sakurako Kujou only has two: work and bones… and since the bones are part of her work, it really comes down to just bones. However, in between collecting de-fleshed animal and human remains for her studies, Sakurako also assists the local police as a forensic consultant, where she's developed a formidable reputation as both a corpse magnet and detective.
Assisting her in these tasks is young Shoutarou Tatewaki, who is no slouch at sleuthing himself, though his primary task is to keep Sakurako focused (and keep her from occasionally "borrowing" a particularly interesting specimen). If there's a bone to pick, a stray skull to be found, or a random skeleton hidden in a closet, you can trust this team to unearth the evidence.

Where it came from
Beautiful Bones -Sakurako's Investigation- was produced by studio TROYCA and aired in 2015, based on the light novel series written by Shiori Ota and illustrated by Tetsuo. The series follows Sakurako Kujo, an osteologist with a passion for beautiful bones and a talent for forensic deduction, and her high school companion Shotaro Tatewaki. The production aimed to blend a procedural mystery format with a contemplative atmosphere, focusing on the human stories behind the remains Sakurako examines.
The character designs and animation style were intended to highlight the stark, aesthetic contrast between the clinical world of forensic science and the natural beauty of the Hokkaido setting. While the show received moderate attention for its unique subject matter and the unconventional personality of its lead character, it is often noted in industry discussions for being an early significant project for TROYCA, helping to establish the studio's reputation for visual precision following their work on Aldnoah.Zero.
