HOW HAS THE ANIMATION SO FAR BEEN RATED?
Both fans and critics have given the anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners a rousing ovation.
The Netflix science fiction series is receiving some impressive ratings on user-based review platforms, including an 8.7/10 on IMDB, 8.57/10 on MyAnimeList, and 96% on Rotten Tomatoes.
A more pessimistic assessment of the show is provided by The Gamer. Who notes that “Striking animation and a loving cast of various characters support a central plot.”
“Despite everything, the show does choose well where to lean on storytelling that only it can do. Leaning into a lot of the psychological horror of existing in Night City, of risking your mind while using bodily augmentations. To get an edge over other gangs, while giving a bleeding-heart romantic edge to David’s story. And actual stakes and emotional weight to the hectic gunfights he throws himself into with abandon.
