    Lyrics:
    Feel the rhythm of the streets
    Neon lights and neon dreams
    Bloody fists they feel no pain
    When there’s so much more to gain
    Hunting season if you will
    Tell me where’d you’d rather be
    I can hardly see the moon
    Hope we’ll get there pretty soon
    Trying so hard to release
    You out of the misery
    Hold on to your wishes
    If you can’t hold on to me
    Forgive me for letting you down
    Forgive me for letting you down again
    Guess I’m not strong enough
    Right now
    They will finally feel the flames
    Flames that run down through my veins
    I will make this city burn
    We’re not planning to return
    Trying so hard to be free
    To make you see what I see
    Hold on to your wishes
    If you can’t hold on to me
    Forgive me for letting you down
    Forgive me for letting you down again
    Guess I’m not strong enough
    Right now
    Forgive me for letting you down
    Forgive me for letting you down again
    I guess I’m not strong enough
    Right now
    Let you down
    Oh, let you down
    Let you down
    Oh, let you down
    ABOUT CYBERPUNK: EDGERUNNERS
    The series tells a standalone, 10-episode story about a street kid trying to survive in Night City - a technology and body modification-obsessed city of the future. Having everything to lose, he stays alive by becoming an edgerunner - a mercenary outlaw also known as a cyberpunk.
    CD PROJEKT RED, the company behind the Cyberpunk 2077 video game, is producing the series with Rafał Jaki (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Cyberpunk 2077, The Witcher: Ronin) as Showrunner and Executive Producer, with Satoru Homma, Bartosz Sztybor and Saya Elder serving as producers. The team at CD PROJEKT RED has been working on this new series since 2018. Acclaimed Japan-based animation company, Studio Trigger, will serve as the animation studio on the series and bring the world of Cyberpunk to life with their signature, vibrant style. Hiroyuki Imaishi (Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill, Promare) will direct the series along with creative director Hiromi Wakabayashi (Kill la Kill), character designer and animation director Yoh Yoshinari (Little Witch Academia, BNA: Brand New Animal), and the adapted screenplay by Yoshiki Usa (GRIDMAN UNIVERSE series, Promare) and Masahiko Otsuka (Star Wars: Visions 'The Elder'). The original score will be composed by Akira Yamaoka (Silent Hill series).

    It is amazing how in sync the animation is with the lyrics. "We're not planning to return" is sang just as Sasha apologizes to Maine for her actions.
    "Forgive me for letting you down" starts for the first time as Sasha flashes back to her mother's coma.
    This can be interpreted either as her own childhood guilt, or as the words that her mother could never speak.
    I'm just scratching the surface, so just know: this is a masterpiece.

      It goes beyond that; The first verse, while Sasha does the initial infiltration, is all about the life of an Edgerunner in Night City; "Bloody fists, they feel no pain when there's so much more to gain" could be either about how the Megacorps feel no remorse about the blood on their hands when there's profit involved, or perhaps about how the pain of the Edgerunner lifestyle doesn't matter to Sasha when it's a path to achieving her dreams, and "I can hardly see the moon, hope we get there pretty soon." is pretty obviously her hoping she and her crew can achieve their dreams, even when they're out of sight.
      The second verse, on the other hand, that starts when Sasha resolves to make her final stand, is about how she'll make Biotechnica feel some of the pain they caused her, even if it costs her life; "They will finally feel the flames, flames that run through my veins. I will make the city burn. We're not planning to return." is pretty self-explanatory, and "Hold on to your wishes if you can't hold on to me." is her final farewell to her crew, asking them to move on and find their own happiness.
      The chorus, meanwhile, could have a bunch of different meanings; "Forgive me for letting you down. I guess I'm not strong enough right now." could be about Sasha apologizing to her crew for not coming back (Or maybe to her mom for getting her Securicine? It'd be be fucked up in a very Cyberpunk way if a young Sasha was the one who went out to buy her mother painkillers, only for them to end up being what actually killed her), her mom apologizing for dying and leaving her daughter alone, or even Maine, apologizing for not being strong enough to save Sasha, which of course, would only fuel his Chrome addiction.
      Just fucking tragic all around, but it makes for an absolutely phenomenal music video.

      I interpreted the "Forgive me for letting you down" bit as an apology for giving in to the temptation of sacrificing her own life (which her mom certainly would not have wanted) for vengeance. Granted, one can argue it was justice for all of the victims of Biotechnica's greed. But in her heart, it was vengeance.

    I love how this has the same theme you see a lot in Cyberpunk/Shadowrun-type media.
    The moment a gig becomes personal, it's over.
    People who do this kind of 'runner job for a living, they measure risk pretty well and they always ensure that they have a way out (otherwise they never would have lasted long enough to become professionals) but the moment something about the case personally involves you, you can't let it go anymore.
    You run out the clock, you let your escape-window close without you and you start taking crazy risks.

      @@Buckeqzq The girl's name appears to be Sasha Galina. Judging by the characters we see, (Rebecca, Dorio, & Maine) my best guess is that she met Maine way before Lucy came around. But the reason why you never seen her in Edgerunners is because she died before Lucy, David, and possibly Gloria's (David's Mom) introduction. I don't even think she was referenced in all ten episodes. And because of that, its hard to say if Sasha & the events that happened are canon to the Edgerunners storyline.

    For those that don't understand the video, lore-wise this girl's mom was in the Unification War and was wounded somehow and took medication which ultimately killed her. Her daughter watched all this happen, grew up, and wanted revenge. She achieved a measure of it (Biotechnica still exists in V's time, a few years later) so it's unlikely much was achieved by this raid. But it did help Sasha reach closure, even if it killed her, hence why her current self was hugging her former child-self at the end.

      I wouldn't be surprised if they do another CP game with UE after the next Witcher game. I think as a franchise there's definitely potential. Hopefully with better modding support then as well. UE is already an open platform, so it's very much up to CDPR to allow and support it.

      I don't think I've ever felt this emotional and stirred up after fictional content like a game, movie, show whatever... it's an incredible feeling that they made this hir so hard but so sad... classic example of wishing I never watched this masterpiece...
      Amazing show, one of the best anime ever made, this is an experience not to be missed. This one really stuck with me all the time and the song is so bitter sweet and romantic man... CD and Trigger nailed this one perfectly. I love how they portrayed Night City as incredibly dangerous and you can just get your head blown off at any minute and life is so fragile and people just *poof, and they're gone...
      And it's amazing that they stayed true to the Cyberpunk lore as well with UI, text font, aesthetic, places, guns, people/gangs, cyberware etc etc... You can tell so much love and passion was put into the show to show these details. 10/10!
      I loved all the characters in the gang but to be honest David was starting to act like an a$$hole to the end of the show and even though he's got everyone telling him to stop pushing the limits of his body or he'll go cyberpsycho he still does it anyway to fulfil his egotistical pride and deadpan mindset, and things turned out tragic.
      He's a likeable character but he really doesn't deserve Lucy honestly since she basically begged for him to stop to save his life and he not only doesn't understand but threatens to break up which hurts Lucy... What a a$$hole! Lucy really did love him and he's probably the only thing that ever really mattered to her. It was very sweet yo see them living together in the luxury apartment, it was so wholesome, Lucy seemed like she just wanted a simple life with David but David chose otherwise...
      I think the reason Lucy fancied David in the first place is because he was a very innocent, natural and "organic" person and wholesome, amidst all the cyber chaos, corpo scheming, gang wars and nasty business, David was a person she could feel easy with. But later on she realised that David has embarked on a forsaken cyber route and yet still loves him, that's what makes her a keeper. I think despite this being a bunch of fictional characters and only 10 episodes, it deeply explores the human condition. Very impressive honestly.
      He also doesn't deserve Rebecca too lol. I think this show does a great job showing the downfall of a person who strives to hard for power and abandons his humanity and what matters to him, and no one could stop him in place in ruining himself... He's a heroic idiot who witnessed how bad going insane is with all these modifications but still couldn't resist his spiral down, it's quite a tragic story since the developers are really good at making feel attached to characters and then ripping them away painfully...😣🤨
      Anyways the show really did made you FEEL so many emotions by the end. Sadness, melancholy, emptiness etc etc... 😫

      @@mingyuhuang8944 David was driven by his good nature and his desire to make it big, something that Night City instills in people on a very basic level. The wish is always there, it's even a promise the city makes to you. You CAN make it big... the price is just very very high.
      David got lost on his journey, he lost sight of what mattered to him in the beginning. His mother, his friends, his good nature. He fought for his beliefs until he too was corrupted by Night City. Towards the end we see him struggle with it. He recognizes what he has become and it torments him but he can't stop. He hasn't "won" yet. He hasn't yet made it big *enough*.
      Lucy on the other hand did exactly as you said, she fell in love with David for his innocence and positive outlook on life. She saw in him what she never saw in other people, a good-hearted, innocent person that just wanted to live their life. Lucy was trapped in her life of crime and David looked like a way out. A way to reclaim some normalcy.
      Sadly their paths diverted towards the end. They both had something to finish, something to do, some middle finger to give to the corporations and gangs that hounded them their entire life. It broke both of them but it broke David the most. He went psycho over it.
      My personal theory is that cyberpsychosis doesn't actually exist. It's just psychosis. Most cyberpsychos have a LOT of emotional trauma that never gets processed. Instead, it keeps piling on because of their lifestyle. That, paired with the sense of superiority and "loss of reality" inherent to massive cyber-augmentation leads to them losing track of who they really are and what's really important in life. They become weapons, aiming themselves at whatever they think is a danger to them and their goals. We see this in David. Random people sprouting weapons out of their bodies, aimed at him. He feels constantly threatened, even by those who pose no danger to him. He's completely lost in his life of violence. There is no more life without violence for him.
      So when he, at the very end of his journey, reclaims what little humanity he had left and fights the only fight worth fighting, the fight for his friends and his family, he can die with a smile. Sane. Himself. Leaving Lucy behind, who had no means to drag him out of the swamp he walked into. Yet it isn't his fault entirely. Many people fucked up on the way, Lucy too. She was the one who introduced him to the cyberpunk lifestyle in the first place. She tolerated his steady corruption. She withdrew herself when he needed her the most.
      There is no blame game to play with this series. Everyone fucked up. Noone is innocent. Noone is without fault. That's the core concept of the modern Cyberpunk setting, the world's gone downhill too much for people like David and Lucy to have a happy ending.

      I don't think so, here is my perspective. David was carried away by the dreams of his mother first. Second, after she passed away, he tries to find somewhere to belong. Third, he found himself in the middle of cyberpunks and, in a way or another, he felt empathy toward them for inumeral reasons. Lucy was only a sweet dream, one that he cannot flee or get away, always being atracted by her and that what love is meant to be. Forth, Maine death leaves david with a void inside himself, another dream of someone's who's now dead and in the twist of the drama he loses his way thinking, " if it was him, who's special, things would be different". Things would end in happier manner. But of course that was not what happen.
      "only this much to go to the moon, how cheap" - was what david says when he was in his most fragile moment watching tv, always thinking about dreams of another and not himself. He's not egoistic, really! He's way too altruistic and that was the cause of his death, living the dream of another.

      @@SymmetricalDocking you're wrong, that's just an illusion. No single rebel can shake this world and that's the whole story. Jonny literally nukes Arasaka tower and nothing changed 50 years later. Edgerunners is the same, you only see the chrome on the surface, not the tragic emptyness under the hood. David is a tragic figure, he tries to help everyone get their dreams, dies for it and leaves only one person behind and she's heart broken by his pointless death. He starts as a generous kind kid and end up a cyberpsycho. This is a perfect mirror in reality to toxic masculinity, getting raised to ignore our personal feelings to sacrifice ourselves in the name of heroism while actually being used and discarded and unable to live our own lives. I personally went through all that shit, have more scars than body parts for real, even lost 1/3 of a lung. Took me 25 years to learn better, barely starting to be happy for my own god damn self at the age of 38...

    "Did you know her?"
    the question shook Maine from the numb sensation in the pit of his stomach. Turning his eyes from the compacted car roof which had broken Sasha's fall, he turned to the person addressing him. An EMT, red hair in a ponytail and shoulders sagging from exhaustion under her overlarge reflective jacket, looked at him with tired eyes.Behind her, her colleagues loaded a bodybag into the waiting ambulance.
    "Yeah... yeah, she was a friend. Don't know how she came to be here though. Just got a call, came to stop her. Wasn't fast enough."
    The woman's expression softened. "I see. I'm sorry for your loss. Can we ask for your signature to say you'll take care of funeral services?"
    Maine's jaw clenched. Sasha deserved better than becoming a can of ash in the Crematorium, but anything above that cost eddies that he didn't have right now. Mulling it over, he knew that Sasha had some high end quickhacks slotted, and re-selling them would probably cover any cost that might come up. Getting them would be hard, though - as soon as she arrived in the city morgue, he knew she'd be picked clean by the Scavs before he could get to her. But it might help to have someone on the inside...
    "Sure, I've got it. But I might need your help," Maine lent in close, his broad shoulders eclipsing her slight frame. Closer in, he saw she had a double red diamond EMP thread on her right cheekbone. "My friend had some tech that I'd like back. I know I got no right to it, but if you get it to me, I can make it worth your while."
    He zipped her the 500 eddies he had spare to try and sweeten the deal. He wasn't sure it'd be enough, but when he saw her eyes widen, he knew he'd guessed right. She looked at him with an expression that told him everything - that he'd thrown her a lifeline that she desperately needed. "I'll get what you need. Meet me at Las Palapas motel in Arroyo in two days." Turning away, she headed back to the waiting ambulance, it's engine turning over as it made ready to set off.
    "Hey," Maine said to her retreating back. "Who do I ask for when I get there?"
    "Gloria Martinez."
    --------
    At the beginning of the next fiscal year, Biotechnia released a new painkiller, a little blue pill under the brand name Defendridol. A tiny warning label on the back stated that, in some rare cases, extended usage may result in neurological side effects. It would make Biotechnia €$3.1 million in the first twelve months.

      I think David was believable. His empathy was both what made him able to handle cybernetics so easily (he's got a lot of humanity) and why he never had an end goal for himself. He was always taking after those who cared about and didn't give a shit about himself. When he realized he was doing so much self sacrifice and yet he stayed standing, he believed he was truly someone who was more special than everyone else, and that's when his cyberpsychosis began to set in. We all draw the line where we want to draw it. It's hard for us to admit, as people, that we've got our limits, especially when we're so ahead.

  • @FrizFroz

    There are so many appreciative comments about the Edgerunner series (rightfully so), but can we talk about how beautifully animated and directed this MV is? It tells us the story of Sasha, Maine's netrunner before Kiwi and Lucy. She had lost her mother presumably due to illness and, like David, was sucked into the life of a Cyberpunk.
    She had lived her life peering through the kaleidoscope of Night City, captivated by its glamor and promises; but try as she might to create her own happiness amid its shimmer (2:42) she could never shake the anguish of losing her kin. During a Biotechnica gig, she learns the truth about the "Securicine" painkillers her mother took while serving the military. It killed her through "gradual neurodegeneration" - a side effect undisclosed to the public to keep profits flowing. Sasha determines to leak this information at the cost of her life, holding valiantly against the security bots until the upload was complete.
    Did her tip truly make a difference? Hardly. Biotechnica remains a monolithic mega enterprise, ever-present in both game and anime. And so the life of an evidently vibrant, vivacious girl burns away, and her dream of bringing down the system along with it. Just like David, just like Johnny Silverhand, and countless others in Night City. But it gave her some closure at least (3:56) You can see her older self comforting her younger self as she flatlines with a smile on her face. She was finally free.

    It's an amazing ending for Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Dawid Podsiadło has composed a beautiful song that conveys a lot of melancholy, this series has a certain resemblance to the Goodfellas movie.

      I agree that it is impressive, animation, song, art, and color, it's fantastic... But it is more than just the ending theme, this animation is kinda a prequel, If you watch the whole anime probably will get it :3. Maybe I'm inventing it, but It's Trigger, so probably all is calculated :3

      Arcane blew this show out of the water.
      Edgerunners basically shot itself in the foot by design. If they hadnt made it an anime, had animated/designed it in a way more similiar to Arcane, or even Pacific Rim: The Black it would have been 1000x better. As it is, the corniness/jankiness inherent in the design of traditional anime just made it eyeroll worthy, and at worse snicker inducing. Even the most emotional scenes were only saved in the slightest by the soundtrack. Without the soundtrack it would have been a total chucklefest at best.
