Blue Submarine No. 6: Saigetsu Fumahito- Time and Tide (青の6号 歳月不待人 -TIME AND TIDE) is a Adventure video game published by SEGA released on December 7th, 2000 for the SEGA Dreamcast.

Based on a post-apocalyptic submarine warfare versus mutant hybrids Manga and Animated series (OVA), Blue Submarine No. 6 is a lovely looking title which commands high prices. The game mixes great underwater action sequences, which look excellent and play well, with well designed controls, and add it to the usual array of pre-mission screens and some beautiful cel-shaded animation. Both the audio and visuals are excellent throughout, and fans of the source material will approve of the high detail. Compared to the western underwater adventures, Blue Submarine is a far more rewarding experience, but whilst the action sequences display a lot of on screen commands in English, a translation guide is still a necessity to understand the plot – and without knowledge of what’s going on, things can quickly become a little tiring. This though is one title where the effort has a good chance of being rewarded. A bit pricey, but worth it.
