Texhnolyze
On Fuji TV
A bleak, philosophically dense cyberpunk noir that treats a decaying city as a character unto itself, exploring existential dissolution through fragmented narrative and visual abstraction.
Denizens of Lux have come to call it "The City" and treat it as a sentient force. Three factions vie for control of the city: the Organo, a strictly professional conglomerate with ties to the criminal underworld in the prosthetics business; the Union, a fanatical populist group interfering with Organo's affairs; and Racan, a marauding group of Texhnolyzed youths.
