Cyberpunk: Edgerunners decided to watch only for the sake of respect for the original source game. And he received only disappointments, as well as from the game on the day of release.

And he received only disappointments, as well as from the game on the day of release. But if Cyberpunk 2077 was brought to mind after 2 years, then this will not work with the series. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners still somehow entertains the first 2-3 episodes, but then a boring monotonous narrative begins, which for the most part does not use the ENT of the Cyberpunk universe. And you watch it all reflexively with no interest in waiting for the finale. And the final is also completely drained into the toilet. I do not like the anime genre in general and included Cyberpunk: Edgerunners only because of the connection with the game, but if most anime looks like this, then I do not understand this culture at all. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is rubbish I personally think only uses franchise name… Expand

Cybersnooze, if boredom could kill!

Animation is nice, everything else is just so cliché and utterly uninspired. Boredom sets in during the first episode and never lets up.

Beloved by the same ones holding out hope for the letdown CDPR sprung on everyone. There's nothing here you couldn't get from Akira, Ghost in the Shell, or Cowboy Bebop. Even Altered Carbon's animated film blows this out of the water. OnlyBeloved by the same ones holding out hope for the letdown CDPR sprung on everyone. There's nothing here you couldn't get from Akira, Ghost in the Shell, or Cowboy Bebop. Even Altered Carbon's animated film blows this out of the water. Only difference is they did it better. Some tie ins and callbacks to the game are there for fans for whatever that's worth, but the whole affair feels so lazy. The writing is childish and lackluster, the world is decent but it's just the same Night City from the game. Also the animation style is generic, the characters are forgettable cliches, even the action scenes have been done better elsewhere. Just not anything of quality or substance here.… Expand

Everyone giving this is 10/10 is out of their minds.
This show is painfully mediocre.
Plain, stereotypical characters, boring story and very very lazy animations. Watch Ghost in the Shell, Darker than Black, Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, or evenEveryone giving this is 10/10 is out of their minds.

Watch Ghost in the Shell, Darker than Black, Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, or even Akira.
I believe with my heart that you will then realize how overrated this show is.

I can't understand how today everyones standards have become so low that this, medicore show, this blatant ripoff from other good shows is getting such a high praise.

As someone who actually knows his Cyperpunk animes, this is far below average, 3/10.

Final thought: Even if you don't agree with my rating, please check out those anime above. You won't regret it.… Expand

The story is bad and predictable, boring even, MC's are strong because of plot, but not as strong as franchise plot. Big up to my man AS for ending it all, as I knew he would. Same old story that you see in so many anime. Akame ga Kill forThe story is bad and predictable, boring even, MC's are strong because of plot, but not as strong as franchise plot. Big up to my man AS for ending it all, as I knew he would. Same old story that you see in so many anime. Akame ga Kill for example, same story, but far far better execution. But I guess the edge runners only got 10 episodes, but then again it didn't have a lot of story to tell. Just mindless watching. Just like they do in NC.

Moreover, trigger made this mess? I'm a big fan of Trigger, but this is their worst work to date. I thought Promare had a weird art style, but at least that story was good. But this wow, what a messy art style, that or Netflix didn't pay them enough. This show had hints of greatness, but unfortunately it falls flat.… Expand

The characters are boring and not convincing. The plot is even worse. I have no idea what drugs the writes were on, but whatever it was, it did not make them any more creative or talented.

If you are a fan of anime-style action but you secretely hate cyberpunk and want to see it done as badly as possible, this might be for you. Otherwise, stay away. Wasted time. It does not deserve the name.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story is broken, why did they make it in the first place? Did people watch the same anime that I watched? Throughout my time watching cyberpunk egerunners, I ask myself why David is behaving this way? Did his mother say before her death that she wanted the son of a murderer??… Expand
