5/5
Cyberpunk Edgerunners is an anime show worth investing your time and energy in. Because you’ll need both of those. As mentioned before, even though every episode is 25 minutes long, it takes a toll on your senses in the best way possible. Go to Full Review
Mark Serrels CNET 03/28/2023
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is a one-of-a-kind, standalone anime set in the Cyberpunk 2077 universe. A heart-wrenching story about the long-term impacts of violence and trauma. Go to Full Review

This however is just a minor issue in front of the visual and contextual extravaganza that “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners” is, in another title from Trigger, that thankfully, seems to address mostly adults. Go to Full Review

8.5/10
While this crime caper may not break from the core issues of this franchise or cyberpunk more broadly, it manages to hit more than a few emotional highs and look very good in the process. Go to Full Review

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners does not sit still. Everything from the talking, the violence, the effects, and the music is pumped up to 15. Go to Full Review
Brittany Vincent Decider 09/20/2022
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. Go to Full Review

F M. @RT81844061 May 29 Never have I watched something so heart jerking, so beautiful, so tragic, and so sorrowful. I have never cried to a movie, film, show or any form of media like this. We didn’t get the ending we hoped for, we got the ending we needed, as tragic as it is. I am man enough to admit that I had to sit and process what happened for 20 minutes while crying my eyes out.

Because by the end of episode six, it threw me face-first onto the floor and told me to grow up. Recommendation: stop at episode six.

The animation is great, and the voice acting is good too. All the characters are well-written, complemented by amazing music. While it might be a little hard to understand sometimes, if you pause and think about it for a while, it starts to make sense. The show also has excellent plot twists. You might even want to have tissues nearby, as this anime hits hard emotionally. I have to warn you, though—there is a lot of blood and a few intimate scenes. Still, the show is amazing, and it is probably one of my favorite anime series ever. I highly recommend it!

Una aventura grandilocuente, pero también con momentos de calma. See more Read all reviews
