Rebecca sensed that something was wrong with David and asked with a solemn expression.

[What's going on with you today?] 】

[It's okay! David responded to the girl beside him with an indifferent expression.

"I'm just looking at you, you know. David, what's going on] Rebecca followed behind David with a gun.

[It has nothing to do with you. 】

[I put my life in your hands, how can it have nothing to do with me. 】

[I'm sorry. 】

[David, don't add prosthetics. Rebecca's petite body raised her girlish fist and looked at David with a smile.

[I will protect you.] 】

When Jiang Zhu saw this, his heart was hit by a stream of heat.

Rebecca

It's really cute.

[You? David looked at her with a smile.

[I'm serious. Remember that cyber psycho who killed my brother? Rebecca's tone was heavy.

[I don't want to, look at you like that. 】

Hey, don't put up a flag!

What you said, I panicked.

And, in the end, is David just in a bad mental state or does he really have cyberpsychotic symptoms?

Just when Jiang Zhu was wondering about this, David fell into memory.

A replay of the scene before the episode begins when he infiltrates the underground facility.

After shooting the manager in the head, he saw a hallucination.

The manager's headless body grew out of the barrel and let out a wild laugh at him.

When he turned around, he saw the mother who wanted to go home early to celebrate with her child

In her eyes, the woman's face was rotten, crumbling, hateful, and turned into a monster.

With a little finger, the woman was also shot in the head by him.

However, everything is an illusion.

By the time he came to his senses, he had killed a mother who was going to leave work early tonight to reunite with her children, in addition to killing the target manager.

I saw a picture of her and her child on the woman's table.

Photo of warm and harmonious mother and child.

Just like his mother, who was desperately trying to earn money for him to study at Arasaka Academy, hoping that he would get ahead, but was killed by a Night City gang scuffle on the way.

If David's mother was killed by the sins of Night City, and he encountered a gang scuffle just by driving on the road, this is an eternal pain in his heart, and it is uneasy in his heart.

So what is David doing now?

The mother he killed also has children, and she is also working hard for her children.

Just because of one of his hallucinations, the happiness of a family is shattered.

What does this have to do with whether you are intentional or not, intentionally or unintentionally?

David's mother died of the sins of the Night City, so at this moment, has David become the sin of the Night City?

At night, the huge psychological pressure kept David awake at night, and even fainted due to a nosebleed due to the huge pressure.

When Jiang Zhu saw this, his psychology became inexplicably depressed.

Who is righteous in this anime?

Although the people killed by the protagonist David are basically some vampire capitalists and gang people with blood-stained hands, is he righteous?

Is there justice in Night City?

is not only David confused in the story, Jiang Zhu can also have a certain amount of empathy for this.

[It seems that the side effects have caught up with you.] It's been fine so far, but that's the limit. The prosthetic doctor was well aware of David's performance.

This is a sign of the onset of cyber psychosis.

[You're on the verge of cyber psychosis. The prosthetic doctor smiled wryly.

[Then give me stronger drugs and more useful immunosuppressants!] David roared.

As soon as the picture turned, the doctor in his eyes turned into a monster with hundreds of eyeballs.

[Could it be that you have gone crazy?] In this case, there is no cure! The eyeball monster laughed.

The world in David's eyes became distorted and weird.

[David! At the moment when David was about to go berserk, Lucy's voice pulled him back from his hallucination to reality.

He put down the doctor he was about to kill.

After a violent cough, the doctor prescribed him one last medicine.

Nine times the standard dose, immunosuppressants can be used for nine days.

[I'm sorry. David apologized.

[It's okay, if you take those medicines, you won't come back.] The doctor said with a smile.

[Finally, let's go be your cyberpunk legend, or something else.] 】

In the animation, for the first time, the world in the eyes of cyber psychopaths is depicted to the audience.

Twisted, weird, full of monsters, all you can rely on is the gun in your hand.

in the fan base.

"No wonder it's crazy. I'd be crazy if I saw this all day long. ”

"Damn, I almost thought I was watching a horror anime, and those hallucinations were too outrageous."

"It disgusted me, especially the hallucinations of the mother who was killed by the protagonist, with a bunch of meat strips squirming there directly on her face, who can't see a shot?"

But this plot also showed me silence, a reincarnation, David's mother was killed by these gang members, and now he has become such a person. Alas, Teacher Xia Yan is really powerful, but the plot shapes the atmosphere so heavy in a few minutes. ”

"But in this plot, what does this doctor mean by prescribing that medicine to David? Does he think David only has nine days to live? Even if David starts to have cyber psychotic symptoms, he won't lose his mind in nine days, right? ”

"Come on, look at Mann, he killed Dorio in just one day after he came out of his cyber psychotic symptoms."

"David won't kill Lucy, will he?"

"No, it won't."

"With Xia Yan's urine nature, this plot is very likely! Depend on. ”

"I don't think it's possible to kill Lucy, right? How popular is Lucy? It's possible to kill that Rebecca. ”

"Damn, if the old thief dares to shape the plot in this direction, I will directly turn into black powder."

At the end of the episode, Lucy falls into a trap and is caught on the way to hunt down the hacker who wants to find out David's identity.

And this trap was set by David's middleman Faraday and his team's hacker Kivi.

Episode 9. Finish.

After Jiang Zhu saw these words pop up, his mood suddenly became annoyed.

But there was nothing to do, so I could only sigh.

As for the fan base, the daily fryer.

"That's it?"

"It's too watery. Bad for making two more minutes of plot? ”

"Faraday really did it to Lucy, this is looking for death!"

"Kivi, this Bichi, actually colluded with Faraday to frame Lucy?"

"After all, as long as you hand over Lucy, you can get a ticket to join Arasaka Company, and you don't have to be a middleman and cyberpunk at the bottom of Night City, that's for sure."

"Kivi doesn't have any righteousness, so there's no good guy in this animation?"

"Damn, this episode ends here, how will the plot progress in the next two episodes? Is this the protagonist going to war with the Arasaka Company? ”

"Lucy is caught, that's for sure, with David's character, this will definitely not be cowardly."

At the end of the eighth episode, the plot of Cyberpunk Edgewalker is pushed to a climax.

It's a familiar break again, but the heaviness of this week's plot has added more thought-provoking content to this animation.

heaviness

The whole anime actually presents this atmosphere since Mann's death in episode 6.

The plot is not refreshing at all, but it is these characters with distinct personalities that make these depressing plots attract the attention of tens of millions of animation fans in Dragon Kingdom.

Until now the eighth episode.

Lucy is captured, and David is on the verge of cyberpsychosis.

Push the plot of the whole work to a critical juncture.

Throughout the night, the fanbase, and the discussion in the forums about the episode of Cyberpunk Edgerunner continued.

In the early morning of the next day, the ratings data of this episode was announced by Modu TV1.

5.13%

A ratings data that even if many institutions have some guesses about it in advance, when it does reach this kind of data, everyone is still shocked.

In the past ten years, the fourth animation with a single episode rating of more than 5% was born tonight.

Moreover, Xia Yan has also become the first screenwriter to create two animations that have broken 5% of the ratings in the past decade.

This was a great shock to the practitioners in the animation industry of the Dragon Kingdom.

To make a popular animation magic circle, everyone will have Xia Yan This is a flash in the pan, and the idea of being famous with good luck will be famous.

Relying on luck, the person who will only stand on the cusp of the industry will not be able to go long, and after a long time, he will inevitably be eliminated by the industry.

But cyberpunk edgerunners tell them with facts that this is strength.

Xia Yan has the ability to make the second, third or even more popular animations.

The talents and elites in the entire animation industry, from this day on, have fundamentally changed their perception of Xia Yan and Xia Tang Animation Company.

Having a Xia Tang animation company that can continue to maintain the industry's top creative talent is very clear to everyone.

The Dragon Kingdom animation industry is very simple, a company rises, and it only takes a few animations to succeed.

The three major animation companies also relied on a few popular animations to rise back then.

The rest. It's the choice of the market.

On the afternoon when Modu TV1 announced the ratings of the eighth episode of Cyberpunk Edge Walker, Xia Tang Animation Company has been following up on several bigwigs in the animation industry, and at this time they all changed their attitudes and called Xia Yan Company one after another, expressing their desire to join.

That's the most important thing.

How much money you make with a work is actually a second, but how many talents you can attract through the success of this work and build confidence in the industry is the key.

The ratings of the eighth episode of Cyberpunk Edgerunner broke 5%, which basically broke the industry's inherent illusion of the three major companies, and the image of their three invincible companies is collapsing.

At least now in the hearts of many practitioners in the industry, Xia Tang Animation Production Company has taken off in status and is very attractive.

It's very simple, although the scale of Xia Tang Animation Company is not as good as the three major for the time being, Xia Tang Animation is young!

To be a screw in an old company in the industry, or to be a backbone member of a start-up in a potential new company, everyone knows how to choose
