Some of the world’s biggest names in anime + Franz Ferdinand. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners premieres September 2022 only on Netflix. #Edgerunners.
This is the official Cyberpunk: Edgerunners opening credit sequence – first debuted by Studio Trigger at Anime Expo 2022 in Los Angeles.
ABOUT CYBERPUNK: EDGERUNNERS
The series tells a standalone, 10-episode story about a street kid trying to survive in Night City — a technology and body modification-obsessed city of the future. Having everything to lose, he stays alive by becoming an edgerunner — a mercenary outlaw also known as a cyberpunk.
CD PROJEKT RED, the company behind the Cyberpunk 2077 video game, is producing the series with Rafał Jaki (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Cyberpunk 2077, The Witcher: Ronin) as Showrunner and Executive Producer, with Satoru Homma, Bartosz Sztybor and Saya Elder serving as producers. The team at CD PROJEKT RED has been working on this new series since 2018. Acclaimed Japan-based animation company, Studio Trigger, will serve as the animation studio on the series and bring the world of Cyberpunk to life with their signature, vibrant style. Hiroyuki Imaishi (Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill, Promare) will direct the series along with creative director Hiromi Wakabayashi (Kill la Kill), character designer and animation director Yoh Yoshinari (Little Witch Academia, BNA: Brand New Animal), and the adapted screenplay by Yoshiki Usa (GRIDMAN UNIVERSE series, Promare) and Masahiko Otsuka (Star Wars: Visions ‘The Elder’). The original score will be composed by Akira Yamaoka (Silent Hill series).

23.04.2023If you notice, at the end of the intro David is shot in the head, that means there was a spoiler in the intro

22.04.2023The man holding the smoking gun at the end isn't Adam
It's the city

22.04.2023Edgerunners isn’t style over substance: it has both.
Polish writers and Japanese animators made one of the best piece of entertainment in 2022.
This is the result of being passionate about the source material, prioritizing character development at letting the artists express their creativity.
Take notes Hollywood: people are tired of your assembly line content.

21.04.2023Remember when cyberpunk was just a TTRPG that nobody wants to play because it was too hard create the character and understand the rules and mechanics…yeah me too.
Sir Tegucigalpa
21.04.2023Fun fact: this version of the song has the 'So burn this city, burn this city' line left out. Maybe for timing of the song and the visuals to sync, but also possibly to show that one can't just burn Night City. Rather, the city wipes you away.

21.04.2023The intro is all the story summarized:
A lonely boy walk forward full of hatred and willingly to see the world burn.
He is made of the meeting of other people.
He goes forward alone, broken, in pieces, but still full of rage.
Then he met hid end abruptly and in violence against someone socially higher than him.

Samuel Gaspar
18.04.2023One person once said that this sequence, with its images flashing in David were his friends, the ones he was trying to protect.
And that despite the long journey where he loses them, fights tooth and nail for them, and eventually dies for them, it can be simply said that it wasn't Faraday he was fighting against, or even Adam Smasher that killed him.
It was the city that he was fighting against, and it was the city that killed him, as can be seen in the images flashing in the final figure in the sequence.
There are no happy endings in Night City, and this show was made with that in mind.
How tragic.
