I'm a Cyberpunk 2077 superfan and this anime series did not disappoint. Night City got the luscious animated treatment of Studio TRIGGER while remaining absurdly faithful to the game. Everything from guns to cars to the locations presented to the show have in-game analogues. The anime's hyperstylistic hyperviolence lends itself well to the wild wild west that is the world of Cyberpunk, and the brutal storyline reinforces something that's hammered into us time and time again in the game and in the genre in general: "Happy endings? For folks like us? Wrong city, wrong people."

Honestly, this would have been better split into 2 or 3 seasons, because parts of it struggled with pacing. It would have been nice to get more development on a lot of the characters, especially on Lucy’s backstory. But the animation and action are gorgeous, and the worldbuilding is incredible.

So watchable right off the bat. ... Cyberpunk 2077: Edgerunners is a fantastic addition to the Cyberpunk universe. Its narrative is even more engaging than the original game in certain respects, with a protagonist it’s easy to get behind and root for.
