Other than the setting what did it have to do with Blade Runner? Looks pretty meh.

Well it takes place 10 years after Blackout 2022.

So the main character is a secret Replicant with super combat powers, I'm guessing.

Can no one come up with a story for a Blade Runner thing other than "somebody is secretly a super-special Replicant?" Maybe pull something from Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? if you need more material?

Carrying on the fine anime tradition of "we blew all our budget on a flashy intro"

Looks f***ing stupid.

A much better trailer! The music choice actually suits the material now!

Why does all this nonsense look vaguely like Overwatch? It's not the only thing. Trying way too hard and the music does not fit, probably the worst offender. Gonna start calling this stuff ~Funko Poptainment~.

This looks like trash, a cash grab in every sense of the word. Nothing about this seems Blade Runner at all but the most shallow attempts of references to the world.

Nothing371 · 10-11-2021, 03:42 PM

but it has a female protagonist now! with a katana.

Yeah this looks like a video game or something. Not a good one either. Not quite as bad as that upcoming Dragon Ball movie but similar.

This works better as a binge watch than a once a week watch, the pacing is better when watched all at once. I think it's a solid entry for this franchise but it's not perfect. Animation is hit or miss (environments and lighting is beautiful, but character models are dated looking). Plus some story/character moments aren't well handle (like episode 8 being essentially a clip show stopping the story dead). But it's a decent expansion to the universe and a solid sci-fi revenge thriller on its own.

7/10
