Why It Rocks: Cyberpunk: Edgeruners not onlysingle-handedly revived the popularity of its troubled video game, it stands as one of the best anime Trigger has ever made. Edgerunners is film noir anime storytelling at its finest. Edgerunnners follows David Martinez, a street kid who comes into possession of a military-grade cybernetic enhancement. After the death of his mother, David joins a gang of cyberpunks and becomes a legend in Night City for his storied heists and escapades. The show’s made even more fucking spectacular because it doesn’t overstay its welcome and reaches its emotional climax within its ten episodes.
