Parkour, electronic music, cyberpunk, bounty hunt, man I'm intrigued looking forward to seeing it

[jonathaneilbeck]

So those you who probably don't know this series is directed by Shinichiro Watanabe and has action scenes designed by Chad Stahelski, the director of John Wick. Yeah...

[Did_No_Wrong]

God I love this screams early 2000s anime vibe.

[eggfarmer]

Getting an anime directed by Shinichiro Watanabe in 2025 I must be dreaming.

For anyone else curious, the song used in this video is “LesAlpx” by Floating Points; his 2019 album ‘Crush’ is one of my absolute favorites—must hear!

The animation style brings me back to my kid days. The music and the main character energy is definitely drawing me in. I'm interested in this.

[yklysmnx]

I like this style of painting so much, it reminds me of Banana Fish.

[TheSilentCivillian]

God, Watanabe's direction and storyboarding has such a nice flow. It has at the same time a rhythm and a sense of space, and usually in anime one of these is missing. So good to see him back.

If anyone is wondering all episodes of this show have already been animated and the studio animating is MAPPA

[poggersvil]

He moves like Spike??? This definitely feels like cowboy Bebop but with a twist

[Made_In_Heaven]

Axel definitely has Spike's attitude and fashion sense, can't wait for this!

[ChrisSummers-AlienFaeRE]

I'm gonna tell my kids this was how Luigi escaped New York.

[corndogsauce]

First ninja kamui, now Uzumaki. One more chance adult swim…one more chance

[ChristopherQuinn-kgzz]

Here in Lazarus civilization, no one jumps for the beef.

[thededsec]

"I've been waiting for this" YESSS more info on this. Been following this show for basically a year now. I cannot wait

[leodu]

The background music track is LesAplx from Floating Points' 2019 Album, "Crush".

[blackeroni]

What I like about The fight choreography at 0:20 is how seamlessly they infused parkour into Combat. Usually in Anime or Movies they'll just randomly throw in a trick flip for "cool" points and it just looks cheesy. Shinichiro Watanabe's works always seem to have great fight scenes that are fluid, Stylish, and practical. Not just random willy nilly stuff but actual martial arts moves.

[Riujb]

Does anyone else subconsciously want Steve Blum to voice this guy?

[mrphauker]

Finally an update on this anime, it’s looking like it’s gonna be a masterpiece really hope it doesn’t disappoint but watanabe rarely does.

[kokomoko]

Now we know where Uzumaki’s budget went.
