I like anime, however I presumably like anime intros much more. At their greatest they seem to be a rush of fashion and vitality, they typically characteristic higher animation than the present that follows, and they’re often scored by first fee Japanese jazz, rock or blues tracks.
Netflix simply posted the intro to the upcoming Cyberpunk anime, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, and it is acquired a Franz Ferdinand monitor excessive – however hey, it is nonetheless fairly good.
Edgerunners is a ten-part anime collection set in Evening Metropolis and written and produced in partnership with CD Projekt Pink, however with a distinct solid of characters than Cyberpunk 2077. It is being animated by Studio Set off, the Japanese anime studio answerable for Kill La Kill, SSSS.Gridman and the Little Witch Academia film. These aren’t tasks I like, however I am pretty assured no less than that the intro will not be the flashiest little bit of animation within the present. A trailer launched final month signifies first rate manufacturing values.
Who is aware of what the standard of the collection can be, however I benefit from the intro. The Franz Ferdinand monitor lacks the horn part I most crave, nevertheless it’s nonetheless good. If Velocity Grapher can use Duran Duran, then Cyberpunk can use a Franz Ferdinand track from 2004. Plus, all the opposite parts I need from an intro are there: daring colors, large fonts, visible metaphors taken to ridiculous extremes…
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is due someday this September. Within the meantime, go on, inform me your favorite anime intro. I can not choose mine – however solely as a result of it is Cowboy Bebop and that appears too apparent to jot down down.
