Hint #1: spoiler[The bespectacled addressee of this science fiction story lives in an era where humanity is just starting to experiment with building flying machines.]

Hint #2: spoiler[The protagonist of this story in a fictional setting reminiscent of the turn of the 19th/20th century loves experimenting with (many failed) flying machines at home.]

Hint #3: spoiler[The female lead wears a pendant containing the titular blue substance that powers the fictional flying machines seen in this TV series.]

Hint #4: spoiler[Loosely based on the writings of Jules Verne, this tale has our protagonists join a band led by a mustachioed commander while confronting the forces of this villainous speaker.]

I will guess that this is spoiler[Gargoyle speaking to Jean in Nadia - The Secret of Blue Water].

I started suspecting it at the first hint, and was fairly confident by the third, but had no idea who the speaker might be until the final hint.

I think that it has now been more than 48 hours without a correct guess.
Could we please have the answer?

I am wondering if my mistake was that I forgot about spoiler[the movie].

This quote is from spoiler[Secret of Cerulean Sand]. This is spoiler[William convincing George to build a utopia in the desert] after spoiler[an explosion William set up killed every other member of George's exploration team].

^Thank you.
I was not aware of that show.

The way that the hints fit the show that I was thinking of is rather remarkable.

Also the turn is open.
I think that I took the last open turn.

Oh, Raftina has been doing that for years. That's why I am automatically mistrustful of vaguely-worded clues from him which seem to point to a particular title. Razz

Since no one else seems to be taking the open turn... What would you guys do without me?

Something easy from fansubs.

"Foolish little brother. If you want to kill me, then blame me. Hate me. And live on in shame. Run and run... Cling desperately to life. Then, one day, come before me with the same eyes I bear now!"
