User Reviews
Here comes the most underrated anime ever. You'll feel lost after watching this.
Great series. Animation is good. A great blend of CGI with traditional animation. The characters are memorable.
One of the best anime I have watched in a while. I love the characters, the social commentary, all of it.
Sci fi cyberpunk thriller with great animation. Nuanced characters, complex villains, compelling plots and one bada$$ female lead.
Great animation in the works
Very good
Legendary and not to be missed.
Peak sci-fi. Cyberpunk gold.
