Hey @Cream filled donut7 was it you who was asking my thoughts on Edgerunners after I watch it? I remember someone asking me to tell them when I saw it and I think it was you? My memory sucks unfortunately lol.

I've watched the 1st episode so far and I like it. The bully character I want to see get the absolute shit beaten out of him and David seems like a pretty tragic character too already.
That scene with him losing his mother as I expected would happen was brutal and that Let You Down song was perfect for it, they really showed his angst and grief well and hammered home the horrific, tragic impact of the situation.
The right choice of music always makes a mammoth difference too.

I love that effect when the cyberpsycho was showing a trail of after images as they moved, that was pretty dope too. Art style is great so far too.

I'm very much interested too and definitely gonna binge the season now. Watching 1 or 2 episodes now at least and will give updates for you and whoever else is interested if you want them ofc?
Only 10 episodes too so I'll probs even finish it by Tuesday at the latest?

This song is incredible too, absolutely mesmerising, emotional, intense, powerful towards the end especially and it felt ethereal, like an out of body experience moment for me when I heard it:

It really reminds me of Rob Dougan (Matrix music composer) and some of Mobys best work too. They even apparently created a short new tragic story for this song with the video? And thus a new character with her in story too?

Edgerunners was awesome. Reminded me so much of Bebop.
Aye! Definitely feeling the Bebop vibes too. Ironically I've not seen it yet nor Black Lagoon yet BUT im guaranteed, 100%, Definitely, absolutely watching them especially after Edgerunners too! Can't wait now tbh!
I feel a little of Trigun and Tenchi Muto vibes too. Deus Ex (and thus Dex too) naturally as they're Cyberpunk games ofc.

I just watched episode 2 of Edgerunners and I loved it, I'm definitely completely sold on it now. Whole range of feelings going on.

Also another series, I wanna mention in similar but more upbeat, goofing vibe is Blade Kitten/Kit Ballard but the comics might be darker/more serious possibly?

There's thus Afro-Carribean Cyberpunk adventure game I played and its mostly pretty chill, laid back but with at least one sad moment and when I got to downtown in the game, the music hit me like a TRUCK, a Cybertruck even as I heard it, its phenomenal!:

Pure Gary Moore and classic blues/soul/jazz vibes, just sheer intense, raw emotion and soul in it. Made me think of that Let You Down song from Cyberpunk too.

I also watched Arcane finally recently and it was AMAZING beyond words, even ignoring I'm a big fan of LoL and especially Jimx by far and thus my inevitable bias too. Absolutely amazing, incredible, maturely written, emotional, dark, tragic etc story with immense beauty, heart, soul and emotion to it.

Cuphead Show is dope too, made me laugh hard in places and great characters, vibes and such.

Also watched 2nd batch of Stone Ocean episodes and loved them.

I feel like I'm reliving my halcyon days of being an anime fan, game, need, etc. Those pr8me, nostalgic, wondrous dys filled with amazing digital escapism. It really feels good and much needed right now.

I tried this absolutely beautiful, astounding Mediterranean/Turkish rustic, hole in the wall cafe/Bistro/restaurant and it was priceless honestly. Mediterranean and European or whatever restaurants, food, cultures etc just hit different too. Truly beautiful and wonderful.
I love Greece, Italy, France, Spain, Poland, Germany, Turkey etc and wanna discover more cultures, cuisines and thus other countries too. I love Thai food so much too, truly beautiful culture and such too.
Brazil is definitely in a must try for me too. I've tried South African/Portuguese (Nandos lol) loosely and I also have been to an amazing Vietnamese restaurant before too.

Opportunities like this just really help to make life more exciting, interesting and better.
