While we await the premiere of Netflix&#039;s very own NSFW anime

Are &#8216;Love, Death &#038; Robots&#8217; and &#8216;Cyberpunk Edgerunners&#8217; Similar? Here&#8217;s What We Think

The Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is Netflix’s newest NSFW anime. Yes, you heard that
right. Netflix is putting out an original NSFW anime based on the eccentric
videogame Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2007 which was a whole new level of gore mixed
with vibrant colors of the city. The animated series too focuses on this aspect
and judging by the trailer will set bars really high for upcoming adaptations.
Furthermore, the trailer is so artistically brilliant.



The violent, exciting, and fast-paced movement of the characters while
Beethoven’s Symphony no. 9 plays in the background will make you sit back down
even if you are not a fan of animes. The animated series goes all out loud
music, fast pace, nudity, death, and almost anything that requires maturity
guidelines. Rings a bell? A true Netflix Junkie will first think of Love, Death
& Robots after they hear animation and gore. There are suprising similarities
between the two shows, and here we have drawn a few similarities between Tim
Miller’s  Love, Death & Robots
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-the-name-doesnt-make-any-sense-director-alberto-mielgo-reveals-the-hilarious-story-behind-his-love-death-robots-episode-title-jibaro/]
and Rafal Jaki’s Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.


CYBERPUNK: EDGERUNNERS 2007 AND LOVE, DEATH & ROBOTS ARE BOTH STAND-ALONE

To be more specific, both animated series follow a stand-alone narrative.
Furthermore, the Netflix [https://www.netflix.com/title/81054853] anime will
consist of ten standalone episodes following David Martinez.

BRIGHT VISUALS, NUDITY, AND BLOOD—ALL WRAPPED UP IN A MEANINGFUL PLOT

Both animated series have a fast pace with bright colors. Almost each one of the
Love, Death & Robots episodes had a maturity rating, while Cyberpunk Endgerunner
has been marked NSFW in the trailer itself. Underneath the fast pace, gore
visuals, lie a deeper meaning. The screenplay of the Japanese animation is
written by Gridamna Universe series, Promare writer, Yoshiki Usa, and the
brilliant mind behind Star Wars: Vision of ‘The Elder,’ Masahiko Otsuka. Apart
from Lucy and David, the ripper doc has caught fans’ attention. He works as a
surgeon in the daylight but as soon as the sun goes down he distributes black
market goods.

Being a  mercenary, David knows it all too well. Cyberpunk Edgerunner and Love,
Death, & Robots have so many similarities that they could swap names with each
other. Additionally, if you enjoyed watching Love, Death, & Robots, then you
will definitely love Cyberpunk Edgerunner.

Love, Death & Robots? We would love to hear from you in the comments below.

Meet Aliza Siddiqui, a Hollywood News reporter at Netflix Junkie. Her love affair with Hollywood began with Anne Hathaway and The Princess Diaries, but it was the thrilling climax of Don’t Look Up that cemented her infatuation with the industry and its filmmaking. Aliza's journey into entertainment reporting began with her time at Otakukart, where she wrote over a thousand articles. Her writing style is cheeky and engaging, as seen in her report "Somewhat Alarmed," where she narrates Jimmy Kimmel's hilarious story of how Jason Bateman tricked him into gecko-sitting. Aliza's ultimate dream is to study and critique films that capture her imagination and the attention of movie-goers worldwide. When she is not busy binge-watching Sacha Baron Cohen movies and The Office, she loves to curl up with a weathered copy of a Khaled Hosseini or Indu Sundaresan book.
