As for the main ones, there is not much character development to be found here. It's just that you probably even forget the faces of the side characters once they are dead. No it's not a spoiler, I'm not saying everyone of the main characters survives till the end. The characters can be divided into two types: mains who rarely get hurt, and fill-up side characters who are there to die. If not, then it won't be a problem since its not exactly a strong suit of this anime. Even the music played during some parts sounds a lot like Kenji Kawai's soundtracks for GitS. Without mentioning the name of this anime, one look at the world portrayed in it and you might think it is from Blade Runner or Ghost in the Shell. Now this is not a bad thing, but it would've been better if different cyberpunk stories have unique world setting of their own. The upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 game also has that issue. For some reason, whenever we see a new cyberpunk story, the world seems to be eerily familiar with the later two. For example, the Deus Ex game franchise is one of the best known entries in the cyberpunk world, and its visuals have very little common element with the well known Blade Runner and Ghost in the Shell franchises. Now I know the cyberpunk as a genre has some predefined setting for a world, but not necessarily all of Right from the beginning you can see some clear influence of Blade Runner or Ghost in the Shell's environment. It is a pretty well made cyberpunk anime with tons and tons of action sequences (all of which are well made), a lot of blood, just a little bit of nudity in the beginning (that too of background characters), and a good pick for a nice time-pass.
ALTERED CARBON TATTOO SERIES
It reminds me of the art style of the Telltale games for some reason.Īltered Carbon: Resleeved is an anime that you can dive into without seeing the live action drama series of Netflix. The art is decent though I do not understand why so many people are praising it. Also, tattoo technology that is only known by a single person on the whole planet? Like (no spoilers): Where does the bad guy get his army of cyborg ninjas from? Why is stack backup, which is a staple of the Altered Carbon universe, not even mentioned? Surely if the big bad guy has an army at his disposal he can afford stack backup. Honestly, this anime would have worked better if it was just a story taking place in Altered Carbon universe but using different characters and not Kovacs.Īlso, there´s a metric ton of fridge logic and plot holes that make zero sense the moment you stop to think about them. And here there are SO MANY things go over the MC´s head that is not even
And then use that info to manipulate everyone around them. They´re supposed to be amazing character readers that smell treason a mile away and can understand the motivations and desires of every person in the room after just 5mins of conversation. Also, as a reader of the novels and fan of the franchise: That´s NOT Takeshi Kovacs.Įnvoys are not just combat specialists, they are infiltrators with an uncanny sense sense for body language. The story is bland, boring and predictable.
