Bubbleblabber’s Best Adult Animated Series For 2022 (Drama)
5) Cyberpunk: Edgerunners
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is another exceptional original anime series to come out of Netflix that’s one of the most gorgeous animated series of 2022. It’s kind of bewildering how Netflix seems to routinely botch the distribution and release schedules for outside anime that they acquire, yet their own productions have included some of the most exciting anime series from the past few years. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is easily among Studio TRIGGER’s best and most beautiful pieces of work. It confidently stands on its own and doesn’t feel like some act of licensed synergy that requires a video game’s worth of backstory to fully appreciate. While never coming across as derivative or repetitive, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners often feels like Ghost in the Shell or Patlabor meets Supercrooks or The Great Pretender–and with a touch of Akira and The Matrix thrown in for good measure. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is a triumph for video game-to-anime adaptations, Studio TRIGGER productions, and 2022 anime in general. It’s the cyberpunk sci-fi series that animation fans deserve.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
