Blade Runner: Black Lotus

Yeah, the CGI isn't amazing, but it is solid. Not a "game changer", but if ya liked the Blade Runner movies, it is a fun watch.

As the story develops, I really been enjoying it on Ep 7, digging it. Only thing I wish was better is with most of those featured as the group of antagonists, are about as deep as a pee puddle on a driveway during Southern summer. That has more to do with the length of the episodes.

But, in my opinion, I'm not a big anime fan, but this is a fun watch. Ignore the multiple negative reviews, find out for yourself.

2021 is a very special year for Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. Birdgirl came out and that show was a pandering joke, Final Space returned with it's glorious third season, (and yet, I'm still furious that TBS canceled Final Space on a heavy cliffhanger which was totally unfair) Rick and Morty ended up becoming a dumpster fire after it's horrid fifth season due to the characters becoming unlikable, fast-pased episodes and crude, vulgar and abysmal jokes, Tuca & Bertie finally entered aired on Adult Swim with the pleasant vibe from it's second season, Teenage Euthanaias was a decent show and Fena: Pirate Princess was a great show and it had a very interesting story.

Now after I watched Blade Runner: Black Lotus, I just got interested in it. It reminds me a lot like MTV's Eon Flux, but unlike Eon Flux, Blade Runner: Black Lotus has CGI animation and what can I say, I like the animation.

Just like Final Space and Primal, Blade Runner: Black Lotus has smart, dark and mature storytelling and it also has serious moments filled with action fight scenes. I like the voice acting and impressive atmosphere of the show. And yes, I've watched the film, Blade Runner: 2049 which premiered on Adult Swim. Nope, I'm not joking.

I think fans of Blade Runner and Adult Swim fans should really give this show a chance and like it, it's a really great show and yes...this ended up becoming one of my favorite Adult Swim cartoons. Speaking of Adult Swim, I want them to make more and more adult animated shows with mature, dark and dramatic storytelling rather than raunchy comdies.

Oh and I want Adult Swim to revive Final Space and renew Final Space for three more seasons, Adult Swim has revived Home Movies, Samurai Jack and Tuca & Bertie so I'm sure (and I hope) Adult Swim can revive and renew Final Space. SAVE FINAL SPACE!

I give Blade Runner: Black Lotus a 9.5/10.

Like most people who watch this show, I am a huge fan of both the Blade Runner films. I feel like this show both respects the films and creates something completely new. It takes clear inspiration from the look of the original world but indulges us into an area of the Blade Runner world we've never seen.

For the most part the show is well animated. The great animation can really be seen in the hand to hand combat fight scenes. However, as it is entirely computer animated some of the character's faces do feel a little stiff in some scenes. I do feel like this show definitely benefited from being computer animated as the lighting is far better than almost any hand-drawn animated film.

Only 5 episodes in and the story has hooked me. The current rating I've given this show is an 8 but if the story pays off that number will definitely go up.

This is not a bad animation, some of the reviews on here are too harsh. The animation is pleasant and atmospheric, although the characters are a little stiff. The plot is well thought out and intriguing. I'll definitely watch t all.

This really eats me. I did have great expectations for the series. I love the original Blade Runner and the cyberpunk genre. There is so much potential.

The first episode has some beautiful scenes and the audio is well done. However, it is not enough to save the series.

This is like the Cyberpunk 2077 game. It was ok, but left me cold.

The bar has been set high. Black Lotus is not as stylish and polished as Arcane, League of Legends. So, if you want to enjoy a modern masterpeace, watch Arcane. That is pure art.

I hate to say this, but in my opinion, Blade Runner: Black Lotus has a lot of potential... wasted.
