I loved how they included David taking a shortcut by just jumping at some random location, that's every player of an open world rpg ever

Love how this man went from NPC grade to boss contender

I love how the environments are basically paint over of game screen shots. Every location exist within the game itself.

This anime came from cool and excitement into pure sadness.

This scene is so amazing for world building. Even people who never played the game can take a look and have a really good idea of the social inequality of this city,how there are flying cars and everything but an absurd amount of people living on the street,how even they have access to cyberwear(although just basic stuff) and it also shows how disconnected with death this city is since we can see a splash of blood just left there on the ground. All in just a couple minutes with a banger of a song,I love this show!

The pain is still real, been 2 weeks now i think. Such a great anime. More stories from Cyberpunk would be a joy to have.

I love how the interesting-looking NPC (Lucy) despawned the moment the player (David) turned around. Such a faithful adaptation

Love this song. Those lyrics hit too close. "And now I'm getting older, my heart is growing colder all the time" world can suck sometimes

This anime gives you best visual, best drama, best girl and best feels of void in your heart.

From such humble beginnings to being full fledged Edgerunner. If it was anywhere else he could have been something truely special. But in Night City, being 'special' can only take you so far. Such a tragic story, which ironically is the very reason why Edgerunners has left such a impact in our hearts and shall be remembered as a masterpiece...

That one unemployed friend, 2pm on a Wednesday.

this scene immediately hooked me on the show after the first 5 minutes. so much world-building in so little time. the song is so good too.

They did so well in setting the mood. Him seeing a pool of blood on the way to school and just smiling like “haha, night city just being night city”

Man, they give Night City so much freaking CHARACTER with just this short montage. It really makes it stand out as a unique and compelling location, and really adds to the verismilitude. So many other anime, scifi and fantasy, should really learn from this. Too many of them take place in generic cookie-cutter worlds that feel like minimal-effort video game cut scenes. I know this anime is based on an IP that has a 30+ year history of development, so they already had a rich background to draw on, but I really appreciate the extra effort taken here to really showcase it.

1:23 this is such a powerful scene that encapsulates david's naive attitude towards everything. This slouching, non-chalant "Ah, just another pool of blood on the streets of Night City in the morning to school!" being so unaware of the harshness of the world to come. Then that magical rainbow flicker across the screen as it highlights Lucy; his magic to chase out of this normalcy his mother has sheltered him in.

I like how he just smiled at the crime scene his mom was at like it's just another day at night city

清々しいほどに治安悪くて好き

The great part is that you can actually follow in David's footsteps and use his exact route from his Megabuilding all the way to school. It's really cool how Trigger made sure that the route was just like how it is ingame. 😉

0:30 EDGING runners

It's ironic how the moon looked way better and much more beautiful virtually in episode 1 in contrast with the desolate vibe it had in final ep. For people who have watched the show, we know precisely why so. Breathtaking show

0:15 David: V: *Face slammed straight into the ground and blood spitting out*

This show came out of nowhere. I had no idea that they were even making this show and when it came out it looked so good. Everyone kept hyping it up and I finished the anime in one night and I’m playing Cyberpunk 2077 again. It feels good to play cyberpunk again, I feel like the anime reignited my desire to play :)

That Lucy transition was just beautiful. You can really feel what David felt at that moment he saw her.

The think that I love about cyberpunk is that the portrayal of night city can easily be any cosmopolitan city in the American continent but with steroids, me leaving my home and looking at the amount of homeless crazy people, the opulence next door to the most absurd poverty, the apathy of the citizen towards the bizarrednes of their ambience, everything resonates with my own environment. Every time I see night city, in a very dark way, it hits home.

0:14 V在公寓大樓這樣跳就掛了...看來大衛比較強😆

マンションに溜まる浮浪者、道端でオーバードーズするBD中毒者(らしき人々)、デイビッドの掌のパーソナルリンク等々.... 僅か2分ちょっとのシーンにサイバーパンクの世界観がギュッと詰め込められててすんごい。

This whole scene slaps, but I especially love the animation from 0:16 to 0:19. Something about the way his movements and hair are so fluid and bouncy is super satisfying.

Netflix こんなにも力強く儚い物語をありがとう。 全話視聴を終えた今途方もない喪失感に襲われています。

普段アニメ見ないけどこれは見てよかったと思った。

Take note those that want in the movie, theater or whatnot writing: this is how you introduce your world to the viewers

たった2分で"ナイトシティ"をこれでもかと理解らせてくるのすっごい好き

I'm so glad I already really liked Cyberpunk before Edgerunners

they'll definitely doing corpo and nomad as a trilogy, this was Street kid route

David martinez is the reason my overly emotional self always drive safely so i don’t accidentally kill an npc in cyberpunk 2077. Every hobo, love doll, and pos addict is a regular person like david at some point. My imagination is too good and it rips my heart up

ゲーム内に出てくる風景をTRIGGERは狂気的なレベルでアニメに落とし込んでる。エッジランナーズを見てゲームをプレイ出来る人が本当に羨ましい。出来る事なら自分の記憶にハッキングして、記憶を消してもう一度アニメを見てゲームをプレイしたい

Anyone notice the amount of foreshadowing? Rocket in the reflection of the train window (moon), trauma team (multiple times) and lucy making a guest appearance. Theres even a poster that says "strong arms" which could allude to David getting enhancement (specifically an arm from someone). And even the guy in the suit poster could be seen as Faraday.

As someone with a brother named David Martinez from Santo Domingo (Dominican Republic), this hit different lol.

I wish I could watch this all over again and I just finished it, great job Netflix please keep the same standard up

たったの2分でこの街の全貌を見事に説明している。

I finally convinced my friend to watch this last night. He sent crying emoji’s at 4:00 in the morning. He binged the thing in one night lol

1:15 you can see the advertisements that were David's choices in life. He's walking in the direction of "strong arms", foreshadowing what decision he's planning to make.

imma be honest. This song plays every morning the moment i wake up. I set up my alarm to play this song around my house. Its a really good song, It helps me get ready for the day.

One of the best scenes ever made in an anime. It perfectly visualizes David’s personality and inner struggle, perfectly sets the tone of night city, and teases the relationship he will have with the mystery girl. They knocked it out of the park in just a 2 minute scene.

A pure masterpiece in the history of anime. This will never be forgotten. 👏

昨日見終わったけどこんなん泣きたくなるわ

This deserved anime of the year.

It was always gonna end bad for David, even before the show came out there was a drink in game at the bar with "legend drinks" , David Martinez was one of them and the description always read, "go out with a bang" , its insane to me how that ended up becoming the premise of this amazing show.. i would of liked David to live but regardless he managed to become another Night city legend, i still think it was an incredible show.. im still salty about Becca tho 😢

They did a great job of showing what Night City is like without a full on explanation scene. You can just see how much apathy is in the street and what the world is like.

0:30 That’s really weird… Even in 2077 they’re still reading newspapers?

David in ep 1: lvl 1 crook David in ep 7: lvl 100 mafia boss David in ep 10: lvl 500 god

Thank you Mr. Pondsmith for one of my favorite game worlds ever. Night City truly is a spectacle

I swear having done 3 playthroughs of the game was pointing like Leo throughout this whole show they even brought in all the sound effects

It's been now over a month since finishing the show, and the pain is still real 😭

I missed this David, Man. It's sad to see what he has become in the end.

This show is a masterpiece.

David's journey from a level 1 thug to a level 99 mafia boss was a wild ride.

This is one of the most popular scene in the show, I'm not suprised that netflix clipped it.

I hope Studio Trigger works more with CDPR for more animations. Would love to see more Cyberpunk stories, but knowing Trigger, this was most likely an one-shot series. This was there absolute best, since "Promare". And that movie was just eye-candy, but boy did it look smooth during action sequences. Studio Trigger does some great work!

This scene gave me goosebumps and was the exact moment I knew the anime would be special.

I didn't know the music used in this scene was originally from the game. Crazy how it fits an anime perfectly.

As much as I would like to walk around this city, I would fear literally everything around me

さっき見終わったけど喪失感えぐい

ここのワクワク感えぐい

Edgerunners broke my heart Even though i expected the ending it still hit so hard and the songs also stuck in my head too 😭😭

ありがとうございます！ 朝登校するときに聞きたいなと 思ってたので最高です！！ 町並みやばいけど！！！！

I love the song that plays in the background perfectly captures what he will go through or atleast some of Davids own mindset

1:25 why is bro smilling

one of the best scenes and moments I've seen from Cyberpunk Edgerunners!! 👏👏

The 1st ep of Edgerunners introduced Night City so well. I started playing Cyberpunk right after watching Edgerunner and I can’t help but smile each time I go to the same places from the anime in game.

I decided to follow Davids route in-game, which was actually a lot of fun. Right when he leaves the megabuilding, it's just a straight walk to the station. And then everything gets kind of strange. The closest station to the city center and Arasaka tower would be the memorial park metro. We then see him going across a crosswalk which actually faces away from the center in the opposite direction. The next under the overpass scene is on the opposite side of the street with the crosswalk which would make David turn back around towards the metro, or make a really big circle outside of the center (the second putting him walking in the right direction under that overpass. When walking to Petrochem David is actually walking from the other side of the building away from Petrochem based on the location of that overpass he walked under. so at some point he walked away and then turned around and walked toward the building. The next scene where he's looking up at the fish with the Militech building to his right, and the Arasaka building to his left, is once again walking away from the Petrochem building, meaning he did a 360 since the overpass (walking away, towards, away) The next Stair scene should be a floor above, looking at the H buildings between the Petrochem building and the Militech Building. He looks up to see Lucy on the left side of the staircase, (which is actually really close to that glass panel, He then runs to the opposite side of the staircase to look out over the city and for her, as matched with the two spinning orange cars. *After this video ends (Still on his way to school)* He runs to the right of the circle, ending up on the east side We see him standing on one of the elevated walkways at the top, looking at the Arasaka building, which means he either when back down and looped around to get on the correct Walkway, or he just keep running North and went up the walkway a little bit to look at the building. As the scene skips to him at the Academy, He would have walked back east again (or if he looped around, continues to walk east) and continued down two levels, then took a left towards the building entrance. It was fun tailing him even though a lot of the route is opposite of the correct direction, or looped around a bunch. I like figuring out which spot he was at and which direction he was moving.

For as colorful and poppy as Trigger made this world, it's actually so lore accurate. This world is extremely dark and you constantly learn worse things about it. It's like if humans in The Last Of Us coincidentally had a cyber-technological renaissance as shit hit the fan.

The environment and feeling are so expressive that you really like to pay attention to the details. I love it in the game too and it's so perfect in the anime. It gave to people the desire to play again.

音楽もそのタイミングもかっけぇんだよな

交差点のアナウンスがゲームと一緒だったから感動した

0:42 I just noticed that’s the rocket launching to the moon in the reflection. What a foreshadow

David for Night City is one of the most wonderful and sad to continue ♥️

doesnt matter if you watch edgerunners or play 2077, you'll always have the crossing's "wait, wait, wait, walk, walk, walk, walk" stuck in your head lol

love these clips from the show so much , just good trigger respecting source material!!!

This anime is extremely good. I loved it and want more. Really cool to see what they’re doing with the Night City stuff.

0:31 bro's using it on public 💀

That's the scene when I fell in love with this anime. The vibes are just perfect.

I wish I could watch this anime all over again erasing past memories, it was really thrilling and Lucy`s intro was superb

It would be cool if the Edgerunner series was kinda like an anthology where every season tells a different story of the characters behind each of the afterlife beverages. SPOILER AHEAD: (For any who don't know, the afterlife is a bar within the game Cyberpunk 2077 in which the drinks are named after legendary figures of Night City who died. If you go there in game, you can actually order the David Martinez drink with a little synopsis about the character.)

この曲ほんといいよねー

I like to think that the world of cyberpunk is so advance that you can literally put playlists in your head.

This scene perfectly highlighted what a disgusting yet amazing place Night City is

Is it a stretch that at 1:15 the billboards at the background looks like it foreshadows David punching the bully? Or how he walks towards the left side like he's leaning towards becoming an edgerunner?

La mejor serie que he visto en estos últimos años la verdad me llegó al corazón y el final me hizo llorar, 10/10

相変わらず肥溜めみたいな街並みで好きだぜナイトシティ

I was pissed when I heard CDPR wouldn’t do a 2nd season so I said “Fine, I’ll do it myself.” I wrote what was my idea for a season 2 into a movie as a college assignment

What I expected: bloody and lots of action What it gave me: Depression

Necesitamos más de cyberpunk edgerunners!!!

When i go to school i am listening this

The scene was Soo cool with this music!! The city was pretty vibrant around David! I especially loved the part at 1:09 _"we hadn't seen each other! but. No worries. For my looove..."_ the silly track stops and just a cool sweet part in it!! The fish holograms reminded me of Blade Runner 2049 and Ghost in the Shell (2017) aesthetic and the way neon white hair of Lucy appeared was very attractive!!! She was the hot girl I was waiting to see and get with David and boy it was satisfying!!

After watching edgerunners this clip is so nostalgic easily one of the best scenes

God I love edgerunners Keep posting for stuff about it Netflix

Como essa série foi fantástica, apenas amor, tristeza e apego por ela.

Saw those two giant fish holograms while playing the game yesterday going 160 on the my motorcycle and wrecked pretty bad starring at them lol

the immersion in this show was great, it made Night City feel like a place I had lived in.

David became such a cool but tragic EDGE RUNNER... Loved his story!!!
