Background The show was an experimental anthology broadcast on the NHK channel. It was divided into 3 parts featuring individual short fairy tales. The first part of the show titled "The Third Plate" is technically the first anime segment ever televised. In total, the show was 30 minutes long. Though it is questionable as to how widespread the anime actually was, since NHK was only broadcasting to 866 TV sets as of 1953. There is no known estimate as to how much their infrastructure scaled just 7 years later.

Three Tales (opera)
''Three Tales'' is a video-opera in three acts (titled ''Hindenburg'', ''Bikini'' and ''Dolly'') with music by American composer Steve Reich and visuals by Beryl Korot, his wife. It is scored for two sopranos, three tenors, string quartet, percussion, keyboards, and pre-recorded audio. Its premiere was at the Vienna Festival on May 12, 2002; the BBC had commissioned a version for television broadcast four months later. The 12-minute tale ''Hindenburg'' had been written (and recorded) in 1998, while the remaining tales were completed (and recorded) in the year of the premiere. The musical narrative of ''Three Tales'' follows "speech melodies" of pre-recorded interviews, and in many ways resembles Reich's works '' The Cave'' (1990–1993), '' City Life'' (1995) and '' Different Trains'' (1988). The libretto of ''Three Tales'' can be found on the website of the composer (see bottom of page). ''Three Tales'' is a response to nearly a hundred years of modern technology, concerning th ...
