Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Gets New 10-Episode Anime Series on Netflix

The only good thing to come from Cyberpunk 2077 gets a new season. Imaishi isn't returning to direct, however Kai Ikarashi worked on a bunch of Trigger stuff and this project looks like it's his promotion to the director's chair. He did episode 6 in S1, which gave us this:

From the promo image it looks like we're following completely new characters? Looks dope

arent the characters from the first season....unavailable?
- Yeaaaah... the pool of possible returning characters is uh... kinda small...
- Without knowing any details. I assume season 2 is gonna be a once again completely self contained story that plays in the universe of 2077 . (Maybe we get some cameos in 1-2 episodes but I wouldnt even bet on it)
- What do you mean?! Besides Lucy, Adam Smasher and his coaster could return!
I actually really enjoyed this show. It does a great job of the world not changing from start to finish with the only changes being to character's lives and that was very genre/thematically appropriate and grounded in a setting that is over the top. Also absolutely nails a vibe.
Oh sick, I thought the first season was great. I hope they're going with another one season complete story, I think it's a great format for genre fiction. Just a tight little package with a straightforward enough plot and arc to be really well-executed in between a mess of great visuals.

Ah c'mon the games pretty good
- Game was awful at launch and it took years of patches + an expansion to end up in a somewhat acceptable state
  
  I can't hear you because I am deflecting your bad vibes with a sick katana while flying through the air in slow-motion
  
  I agree that the game shouldn't have been released in such a sorry state, but that doesn't mean the game is at all bad today. Same goes for games like No Man's Sky. Amazing games. Worth playing today.
this is going to ruin so many fanfic continuities i can just tell
ooauuuuuaghhuooooooooh i'm edging
