Why is there no cyberpunk anime?Also why does batou turn into an incel when he's around the major

It is so true it fucking hurt.

Also, SoL anime rarely has any fanservice to speak of.

How cares aslong as there are robot waifus

Yeah but is right. Ignore the dystopia, technology will make waifus real.

Let's hope GitS 2045 won't fuck it up fren.

Their are a ton but you have to go back to the 90's 80's

Psycho Pass is getting a new season this year

It says CORPORATIONS AM BAD and japan doesn't like that.
Also we live in a post cyberpunk world, whether you want to believe it or not, and the corporations won.
Only thing missing is the retarded TECHNOMAGIC nonsense and ridiculous cost inefficient cybernetics.

Shit, the average person can pick up a portable factory, tech from china, an ai from the net and BUILD a cyberpunk techno arm for themselves if they want.

>Tfw we will never live in a cool Cyberpunk world

I wouldn't get my hopes high, I mean look at S2

>why does batou turn into an incel when he's around the major
In the manga Batou is having a cyber relationship with a 95 year old man that presents himself as a young woman. That is all that is known about his sex life. And it is implied that he is willfully ignoring that fact, even though others think he doesn't know.
But if you are referring to '95 anime, it is implied that Major is a guy and unlike manga Batou, he is not gay. Although kinda tricky to know who is what sexuality in such a setting.

The golden age of Japanese cyberpunk anime was from a combination of cyberpunk being the hot new genre, and there being enough money sloshing around for hyper-violent, hyper-sexed ova's to get funding.
The money has dried up and cyberpunk has fallen out of fashion. Also as real world tech has moved close to cyberpunk things that would have been cyberpunk in the past are increasingly set in vaguely contemporary settings.

We're starting to live in a shitty version of it though! Don't worry the suffering will still remain but all the cool parts are replaced with very poor standards of living and your shrinking freedoms

>and ridiculous cost inefficient cybernetics.
While we aren't quite there yet, prosthetics are making huge progress.

>the suffering will still remain but all the cool parts are replaced with very poor standards of living and your shrinking freedoms
that is cyberpunk you retard
do you think cyberpunk is just futuristic cities and neon glow?

What cyberpunk anime came out back then?
Pls don't remind me I just wanted to have robot legs to make me tall

i just said the cool parts such as fancy, readily accessible technology is not going to exist while the bad characteristics of cyberpunk will. Calm yourself you uppity faggot

A prequel to Bladerunner 2049 directed by Aramaki and Kenji Kamiyama is being made after the new Stand Alone Complex series.

How was the Kogami movie?

I hope they invent a time machine in season 3 and unmake season 2

This

God that movie keeps getting weirder by the fucking second

>Sunlight
It's not cyberpunk

I kinda thought the first time it's directly implied the Major's originally a guy who's simply now in a female cyborg body would be the '02 - '05 TV-series.

It's been ages since I read the manga or watched the original movie. Can you give me references on where exactly this comes across? Not doubting it, could fully believe Shirow had it in from the start. Just don't remember where.

Because any new cyberpunk is going to just be ripping things off that were made in the past. Cyberpunk is one of the least innovative genres of anything these days. It's all just trying to capture the success of things 20+ years old.

> my only exposure to cyberpunk are reddit images and retro future neon shit
Okay

It's Netflix, of course they will. But they can't take away how good SAC 1 and 2 are.

Our cyberpunk world is just the government using all the advanced tech to spy on us and manipulate our thoughts.

A cyberpunk setting is fine, but cyberpunk as a genre is lame.

Hell digimon is cyberpunk as fuck.
Sword Art Online is cyberpunk

Both Blade Runner movies feature sunlight

>Why is there no cyberpunk anime?
A relatively obscure genre now. It was originally for nerds and patricians.

>that word is commonplace on Yea Forums now
I hate this place

What word? And why do you hate it?

I think the technology is already accessible. We just didn't foresee what the technology was going to be. We got internet and smartphones instead of bodymods and cybernetics. It already amazes me how people in third world countries somehow have access to smartphones but they're missing much more basic shit in their society.

He's probably referring to "incel" and i have to admit i hate that word as well since it's redundant with "user"

Doesn't the various animes have scenes with young Major in her child cyborg body? Or was that only in the later anime? It's been quite a while since I've seen any of it.

Would be really interesting to see someone take the idea of cyberpunk and re-evaluate what cyberpunk would be if we imagine it based on our current world and not what people imagined few decades ago. The reason it's not innovating because it's all based on the same old ideas that got proven mostly false with time.

Also, there's not nearly as many SoL shows as people pretend.

Yes, silly that people used to believe we would end up living socially, culturally, ethnically and economically uprooted and impoverished in a completely commercialized dystopia ruled by international mega-corporations, bombarded with ads and mind-boggling retarded ideology at every corner while nature itself collapses around us.

No, that's exactly what I mean. I know you were memeing my "ignorance" but I would want to see cyberpunk that takes that which they guessed correctly and fixes what they got wrong. Would people be able to see the current sick state of the world if someone were to take a such direct parallel in a fictional story. People are failing to connect the dots because the visuals and the technology are so different. Or maybe I think too highly of people.

>why does batou turn into an incel when he's around the major
He can't accept the fact that the major will never look at him in a romantic way and Kuze will forever be her one true love.

>cyberpunk
>obscure
Maybe before the 80s nostalgia hit.

Same reason isekai is popular

Fucking this
Goddamn it, we're fucked, at least there will be waifus

This. Most cyberpunk just apes Bladerunner and adds their own little "twist" to it.

>Because any new x is going to just be ripping things off that were made in the past. x is one of the least innovative genres of anything these days. It's all just trying to capture the success of things 20+ years old.

Because the punk's dead.

This is true to some extent but cyberpunk is one of the worst cases of it.

Not really, no

Remember Strange Days? That was a cool movie.

People throw a fit if a cyberpunk project isn't night time rainy streets with a neo-80s aesthetic.

why would cyberpunk be day time?

>Also why does batou turn into an incel when he's around the major
He has no Junk dude. Who is he trying to impress by being a nice guy?

cleverly disguised cyberpunk rec thread op

Congratulations. You just provided a perfect representation of what I'm talking about. Nobody wants cyberpunk. They want Blade Runner done over and over and over again.

...y-you're welcome, I guess

Cyberpunk 2077 damaged your brain

it was shadowrun tho
but yeah

>the average person can pick up a portable factory, tech from china, an ai from the net and BUILD a cyberpunk techno arm for themselves if they want.
You are grossly underestimating the expenditure here. An average person neither has the capability nor the capital to attempt something like this.

normalfags do, because they think bladerunner invented cyberpunk, they also think GUNMM and GITS live action were good.
Go to some discussion forum/board/page other than plebbit and you don't find as many people complaining about those points, in fact, I can see more people complaining about a project having any similarities to blade runner.
And again, you can see complains like that for every other genre, I'm not saying cyberpunk isn't guilty for doing that shit, I'm saying it's not the only one and very probably not one of the worst cases.

>he average person can pick up a portable factory, tech from china, an ai from the net and BUILD a cyberpunk techno arm for themselves if they want.
The average person doesn't know how to reset a router

It still hurts. He almost got his waifu...

So why should it be daytime?

The plot for the first movie should of been the season 2 plot. Would of been a great opportunity for more in depth world building. Also the story for it wasn't crap unlike season 2.

>Because the punk's dead.

Unfortunately right. What used to be counter culture because so widely spread and popular that became shitty pop culture. And there's other shittier, more marketable pop culture to use these days.

True.

>why does batou turn into an incel when he's around the major
JUST LOVE

False

>incel
What does that word even mean anymore?

stop trying to counter culture me and get a job, you damn hippie

in the west, cyberpunk is going to be the new zombies. It's going to be everywhere and Hollywood and normies will milk it until there is nothing left.

Like always, this new fad will leak into Japan like a butthole with bleeding hemorrhoids

Like everything they touch they oversaturate it while never really making anything that satisfies.

Batou has got to have high t levels to be the only male to make the major stop being a rugmunch.
