Akira is always going to be my #1 anime in any Genre , but I'm biased , I watched it in 1989 and it introduced me to Anime It did everything right Depth , character development, twists , emotional rollercoaster etc etc I see nothing to complain about and that's why it is my favorite Anime of all Time

Bubblegum Crisis and A.D. Police are both epic.

@19zach75 well AD Police was basically a prequel spinoff of BGC

[@HotHeadedPyro]

Not only is 2040 close to my heart, but the original bubblegum crisis was my first anime

[@wintermagebarthow8481]

Bubblegum Crisis had the best soundtrack of any anime, hands down. S for being a cyberpunk classic, it should be, it was a straight conceptual copy of Blade Runner.

[@imranahmad2733]

Cyber City was the first anime I ever watched and was blown away when it was first shown in the UK during the mid 90's on the Channel 4 late license, the Rory McFarlane mix was so pumped.

[@spikelive]

First of all,great video, thank you,grazie! As a huge fan of Anime since the early 80's( i'm almost 55!!),i'm Happy that most of the Anime in this list are from 80's, 90's and the first decade of the 21st century! Only my opinion ,but the best Anime,and cyberpunk Anime ever are from 80's,90's with few exceptions!! Akira,Gits,Patlabor,Oedo,Ergo proxy,Lain,Batte Angel Alita( Gunmn),Metropolis, Appleseed,Paprika,Trigun,Gundam...are masterpiece. But for me the real masterpiece ,the n°1 Anime ever is Cowboy bebop ! But, i'm not sure it is a cyberpunk Anime!! However Akira, Akira opened up the "western world" to Anime!! So it deserve now and forever a special place!! Greetings from Italy. Ps I apologize for my english!!

Lain is so beautiful and bleak at the same time, and so unique, one of my favorites. Whoever thought of that story must have been living in another dimension. The guy talking about all these animes here should be more mindful of spoilers...

[@platinumnitrocharge4218]

You should look into the creator, Yasuyuki Ueda, he said Lain was a direct commentary on western culture. He's made some strange statements in the past. Not to mention the actual real cybercult thats come from the show

[@ShootingStar1313]

Watching this video I couldn't help but notice how poorly 3D animation has aged. The artstyle used in the 90's holds a special place in my heart. Some of the titles mentioned here have very little to do with cyberpunk. Megalobox, Gunslinger Girl, Space Dandy are some odd picks for this list.

[@adamirfan46]

metropolis

[@tresojos]

WOnderful list!!!!!!! However, missing ANGEL COP !!!!!! Hopefully we can soon add PLUTO anime version to the list OMG

[@SerifSansSerif]

I don't think all these classify as "cyberpunk". i was happy to see texnholyze on the list tho. And parasite dolls has a great opening song.

[@Nemoticon]

Cyberpunk is quite a broad subgenre with lots of different interpretations within itself. Also, a lot of anime touch on a lot of different genres aswell, so while some may not be strictly cybrepunk, they may draw on elements that are core to the subgenre in the first place.

[@frankjaeger2565]

@@Nemoticon still, there's just no way Ideon is cyberpunk...

[@Nemoticon]

@@frankjaeger2565 It's debatable, I agree. But I would say Mecha is a subgenre of cyberpunk.

[@frankjaeger2565]

@@Nemoticon that's just indefensible. Mazinger Z doesn't borrow anything from cyberpunk, nor does the majority of super robot shows, whereas most real robot anime center around war or space settings, not distopian societies. There are very little mecha shows that actually resemble the cyberpunk aesthetics or deal with tose themes; there are even a bunch of fantasy mecha shows, the likes of Dunbine, Escaflowne or Rayearth. As I said earlier, Ideon is a super robot show with a space opera setting, and doesn't really deal with any of the themes explored in cyberpunk.

[@SerifSansSerif]

@@Nemoticon Mecha is not cyberpunk. I don't know where I commented it before, but just vaguely technological does not make it cyberpunk. There are specific themes, and specific ideas and specific settings for something to be cyberpunk. A dystopian setting, typically with evil mega-corporations. An antihero who typically is fighting said corporate/governmental power. This is where it gets the "punk" part of its name. A focus on computer science or computer based technology, or AI. NOT mechanical tech or robotics. Robotics:notes is not cyberpunk. Ghost in the shell is. Parasite dolls is. Bubblegum crisis is. Final fantasy 7 is not, despite it often being called such. It does not have ANYTHING pertaining to the cyber part of the cyberpunk moniker, despite having all the other elements. And on that note, Full metal alchemist is not steampunk despite being fairly close to the description though metropolis and steamboy are for similar reasons. Urban fantasy is not just vaguely fantasy elements in a city. These genre titles are important so you know what the hell you are picking up when you read or watch something. I have no idea why I get so many damned notifications over this silly thread.

[@cyberdemon9306]

Very complete video!! Well done

[@StephenKarl_Integral]

For manga/anime experts out there, the cyberpunk/distopia kind : I'm looking for the title of a movie I've seen on TV in the late 90s, I had little culture at the time so I didn't understand much. This is how I interpreted it : - it's somewhere in the future after some wordwide devastation, combat machines are everywhere, and they want to kill - the focus of the story from the middle to the end is on a human mercenary, a lone (?) human survivor, which encounters another weak survivor (I don't remember if it's a woman or not, but I think it was) Now, he also has to protect that person. - It appears there are factions in this world, one is the robots, mainly on the ground, another I believe are rebels (probably a mix of humans and robots/cyborgs/whatever). The story is screaming the extinction of humanity, humans desperately trying to survive against the robots. - Plus, there is some kind of fog when it comes to the actual motives of each faction, I tend to believe there are humans traitors or very likely robots disguised as human everywhere. - The movie ends with our mercenary and the person he protects in the middle of the desert (they crashed ?) with, in the background, millions of robots on the ground and in the air surrounding them, and the man standing for his last battle, with a few weapons (and if I recall, a weaponized arm) One detail I remember is a giant vertical flying white vessel shaped like a woman, called something like "Oracle" or "Maria", I don't remember, which some humans believe to be the last hope of humanity (like how ? like a shelter ? or a heavily weaponized defensive fortress ? I don't remember that thing doing anything in the movie, just flying high above in the sky endlessly) The movie doesn't focus on destruction and misery, much more on the few figures like the hero fleeing and trying to survive with some fight sequences. It may be an OAV but I doubt it; duration is over an hour but I missed the start, seems to be a standalone movie as a whole. It's plain hand drawn manga, no CGI, no 3D incrust. There is no fancy digital effects like glowing screens or highly detailed mech weapons or fancy computers, just raw hand drawn sequences. It's not about games or sports (like racings, boxing or entering a virtual world), there is no virus-like plot, no reference to Japan or Tokyo, the scenes depicts the journey of survivors in small towns, the desert, in the wild, sometimes high figures plotting in high tech shelters... No gorgeous girls in sexy suits or chilling boys trying to be smart : every character is dead serious and the overall mood is "fatalism", the movie is clearly not for kids, but is nowhere near the trash and blood you find in some like Animatrix. There is one comic as a parody of Dragon Ball (mainly, but actually makes parody of everything in the same story) called Dragon Fall. There is a reference to this movie there, precisely the flying vessel called "Mother" which got shot down, the occupants fleeing in a scaled down version of the same vessel (I you happen to know about Dragon Fall of course) EDIT : The movie doesn't appear to be in this list of (45) anime, probably because it wasn't a goog movie overall. Or perhaps I failed to realize it was among those. Thanks in advance for anyone having a clue about that movie I'm looking for. There is another manga movie I failed to pinpoint, but that's for another day.

[@roush243]

Try one of the 2 MD Geist movies. This vaguely reminds me of them.

[@StephenKarl_Integral]

@@roush243 thank you for your time and effort. You are very close : very similar style, mood and probably plot. But none is what I saw. I'm really sorry I couldn't provide more hints, I was a kid at the time, remembering only bits (and I missed the start). All I can add is, at the end, it was in a deserted dusty plain with as desolate mountains far away, a pastel blue/yellowish panorama (like in the morning), our character on ground standing there (with the woman? I remeber two figures, our fighter and a weak one, I believe their vehicle failed or they ran out of fuel), they are stranded and they only can go further on foot, and from every direction around on the ground and in the air, battle robots, surrounding them, closing, overwhelming. The main character draws his remaining weapons, readying for the most epic fight (no words uttered to express anything, facing fatality is what remains) but before the battle starts, the movie ends (credits, music). As a kid you hope they would make it out of determination or other unexpected turn of events, but as an adult, you know... It was the Dragon Fall parody comic which included a reference to that movie that reminded me of its existence a decade later, then another decade later, I'm here talking/asking about. I don't even remember names or face features, very sorry. Thanks anyway, I wish I could have a "grown up" point of review of the whole story by seeing the movie again, that's it, so anyone, if you happen to know, just put a title or the authors, any hint, I'll search myself. Otherwise, what I'm asking is pretty low in terms of actual information value, save your time for better purposes, it's okay. :)

@@StephenKarl_Integral age distorts memories, so what you saw you may never accurately remember or identify, ive been in the same situation. ive spent years searching for animes i saw when younger to no avail. just gotta watch one by one until you get deja vu. for example, the anime you saw may have been lets say shounen or childish in animation style, but as a kid you felt it was realistic with childhood imagination magnifying it, then as an adult you may even see that same one anime but not identify it visually due to you now seeing it as childishly animated or acted.

Quite a few of these are just plain scifi, and really don't belong in this list.

[@Mikanojo]

No, cyberpunk is not a subgenre of science fiction; it is a subgenre of Noir. Gritty dystopian noir where the heroes are all long dead and what is left are the protagonists and antagonists, all simply struggling to survive and get by in a dark world where most people are corrupt. Steampunk is a further twisted from cyberpunk, often depicted as a never-existed 1700s to 1800s utopia (NOT a dystopia) where most problems have been solved through application of steam-powered science, steam-powered, vehicles, robots, etc.) and into this utopia comes some super villain or nefarious dark cult bent on world conquest that the heroes must defeat. There is also atom punk, bio punk, agro punk et al. which are essentially the same utopia-meets-bad guys stories as steampunk, but with the technology of a different era. In cyberpunk the science is intended to be actually plausible, just slightly ahead of current science, NOT science fiction but hypothetical, realistic expectations. Cyberpunk spans everything from gangster-style shoot outs to transhumanist philosophy but it does NOT involve fantasy and that is where people go wrong in writing cyberpunk by injecting all manner of fantasy into it. those then become amalgams of science fantasy, with bits of cyberpunk tropes added in.

[@germanguy69]

All those are sub genre of sci-fi with the exception of noir. And cyberpunk is def sci-fi meets noir

[@Gripmagic]

The anime is called Gunnm not "battle angel" The doctors name is Daisuki Ido not Dyson Ido and the main female character is Gally not Alita (Alita was the name of Dr. Ido's cat in the manga). Also the body he first gives to Gally is from a prostitute that is killed by criminals that Daisuki is bounty hunting. All of the bounty hunters are called "hunter warriors" not just Ido. The berserker body is one that Ido found years ago on salvage runs and has in storage, he puts Gally in it after her old body is destroyed. As the story goes on you learn that Gally is a former soldier Mars 200 years out of her original time. You have the story ALLLLLL wrong, you're describing the Hollywood rewrite, the original manga/anime is quite different...

[@BLAZE084]

You're absolutely right.

[@cryoboy]

In the german version of the manga I grew up with in the 90s, the anime and the english version of Last Order I read when it came out it was always "Battle Angel", "Alita" and "Daisuke" not "Gunm", "Gally" and "Daisuki". And I only remember the new arms (with a fancy pattern) she gets being from a prostitute, not her whole first body.

[@ninetenduh]

Yes, and no, its original Title is Gunnm, which in the west was dubbed Battle Angel Alita. It's actual title is Gunnm, but calling it Battle Angel alita isn't incorrect either.

[@user-pu1bs9eh7v]

who cares, same shit.

[@adamclifford9482]

It was localised as Battle Angel Alita in the West, and the cat's name became Gally in the West. But yes this video has described the Hollywood continuity, which is inspired by the OVA & the manga, but its not accurate as far the story lines goes.

[@19KW86]

Ghost in the shell (1995) is Cyberpunk benchmark for me. Nice list, but where is M66, Blue Gender and Tekkaman Blade (last two are more mech vs Aliens then cyber city stuff, but there is much more of this in that list)

[@roush243]

Not trying to be snobbish or anything but there are quite a few titles here that are not cyberpunk. That doesn't mean that they wouldn't be good recommendations for fans of cyberpunk. Another genre that would appeal to many cyberpunk fans is ultra violent (anime like Angel Cop and Fist of the North Star). When I first saw this list I thought you were grouping all series following a particular title together as one (ie. Bubblegum Crisis, Bubblegum Crash, and Bubblegum Crisis 2040 as one entry). That is, until I saw 2 entries in the Cyborg 009 line. This lack of the original titles in the list really leaves a sour taste to any fans of the genre. As I said previously, if this is just recommendations for fans of the genre that is fine. However, as a list of the genre it falls very short. You might want to re-title the video as recommendations for fans of cyberpunk.

[@jordanjackson6151]

The narrator sounds like he hasn't watched more than half of these shows. Some of which aren't even cyberpunk. They just have advanced cybernetics as an involved design. But not the overall plot. Whatever fun list I guess. Better than most.

[@gochadc]

First of all I love cyberpunk and anime, so thanks a lot for making this list. I don't want to be annoying but there are a few things I think you could work on to make videos like this better: - Too many spoilers: I ended up skipping the shows I haven't watch and want to since you describe a little too much about the plot of the different shows, sometimes even narrating events really close to the end of those, I know it because I've watched about half of the shows in here. - The audio volume goes up and down at the beginning of each show description and some added sounds are louder than your voice (like the "woosh" sound when the name of the anime appears on the botom left corner). Balancing audio can be hard, but it makes a huge difference on videos like this to make it feel more professional.

A number of the entries in this video aren't even cyberpunk like MS Gundam, Ideon, and Space Dandy, to name a few. Also, Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 should be replaced by the original Bubblegum Crisis.

Also, Armitage III sucks hard...

BGC 2040 is crap 2032/2033 is the classic. The thumbnail is from the BGC episode Revenge Road when the AI of the Griffon takes over.

I was hopping to see Needless and Accel World on this vid, kinda lacking Though seeing Mobile Suit Gundam, Blassreiter and Animatrix makes it up in a way

Forever love to Major Kusanagi ! 😍

How in the world is Gundam Cyberpunk? It's a coming of age story set during a war, it has nothing to do with cyberpunk. Also, Votoms is more of a space opera, the only part that resembles Cyberpunk is the first arc. Ideon is just space opera, it has nothing in it that can be considered Cyberpunk.

That's a bit of a shame you tell the end of each story. But as it is a good recommendation video, i'm leaving a comment and a thumb 😄

You really did your homework dude. Just one question, why no Jin Roh? Very slept on cyber punk anime.

[@frankjaeger2565]

How in the world is Jin Roh Cyberpunk?

@@charlesthomas2025 high tech suits? They are just armors, they have no advanced technology, their most advanced feature are the termic googles. Anyway, the movie is not set in a near future, it's an alternative past: that's called an uchronia, not cyberpunk.
