David Martinez attends an elite Night City academy that his mother can barely afford, and her sudden death leaves him without a future or protection. He installs a military-grade Sandevistan and joins Maine's mercenary crew, where he meets Lucy and d…reams of taking her to the Moon; jobs against corporations, mounting cyberware, and the threat of cyberpsychosis turn his rise into a self-destructive race.
You should watch it for its music, its action and a short story that makes you love its group very much before Night City takes its toll.
It's a good fit if you're looking for adult cyberpunk, romance, and intense tragedy that wastes no time.
What sets it apart is that each improvement also destroys David: the more Chromium he installs to survive in Night City, the closer he comes to losing his mind.
