Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Trailer: This NSFW Anime Will Melt Your Face Off And Punch Your Guts Out

In case anyone was worried that Netflix had lost its edge after acquiring wholesome anime properties like "Kotaro Lives Alone," rest easy knowing that "Cyberpunk: Edgerunners" is here to deliver a relentless, full-tilt anime filled with enough sex and violence to make your brain melt out of your ears. Combining the talents of Studio Trigger ("Little Witch Academia," "Ninja Slayer from Animation," "Star Wars: Visions") and CD Projekt Red's "Cyberpunk 2077," the new 10-episode series "Cyberpunk: Edgerunners" is a sensory assault filled with body modifications, bodily fluids, and an all-out attack on the psyche.

The new series is set in the same universe as the "Cyberpunk 2077" game, in the technological and body modification-obsessed "city of the future." The series will follow a young street kid who has big dreams of becoming an edgerunner, the in-universe name for mercenary outlaws. Throughout his journey, he aligns himself with Lucy, a netrunner with a mysterious past always threatening to take her down. A trailer was released earlier this month for "Edgerunners," and while it contained just as many flashing lights and exciting imagery as today's trailer, it certainly did not prepare us for how unflinchingly bat s*** the new NSFW trailer would be.

Be warned: if you're prone to migraines or epilepsy, this might not be the show for you. There are A LOT of quick cuts and flashing imagery.

Given the NSFW nature of the trailer, we can't actually show you it, so you'll have to click here and head over to YouTube to get your face rightfully rocked off. In all seriousness, whoever edited that trailer deserves a raise and some sort of award because I genuinely can't remember the last time I physically jumped out of my seat and screamed "LET'S F****** GO!!!!" at a trailer, which is precisely what I did while watching this. Apologies to my downstairs apartment neighbor if you're reading this.

"Cyberpunk: Edgerunners" is loaded with stunning animation and ultra-extreme visuals, some of which I am genuinely shocked will be available on Netflix. Blood, guts, and violence are one thing, but there were absolutely characters squirting while grinding on each other. If you don't know what that means, maybe Google that with Safe Search on ... or not, I'm not your mom. Even better is the juxtaposition of all of this visual stimulus set to Beethoven's Symphony no. 9/Ode to Joy, a song I never imagined would be the perfect fit for a ridiculously provocative anime. Give. It. To. Me. NOW!

"Cyberpunk: Edgerunners" debuts on September 13, 2022, on Netflix.
