Season 1 Review:
The main issue with Blade Runner: Black Lotus is that there isn’t really a compelling hook here aside from the Blade Runner bit in the title. It’s a competently assembled tie-in to the larger mythology, but, at least in these early episodes, it’s not clear if there’s much to it beyond that.

Top quality animation, great visual style, perfect soundtracks, all in all great show if you like this genre.

I'm all for a Reboot-esque animation style and expansion to the Blade Runner story.

I quite enjoyed this show and it neatly fits into the Blade Runner universe. For once, the male characters in the show aren't completely neutered or idiotic.

6 episodes in, and this is better than bad. The Japanese with English subtitles is an interesting schtick, the animation is clunky but beautiful. Not the best thing I've ever seen but I keep tuning in.

The animation style looks outdated and strange, and the story seems a little derivative. Nevertheless, I want to see how the Blade Runner universe keeps expanding. And for that, I'll be watching until the end.
