00:00Welcome to Cyberpunk Edging.
00:01In 2077, what makes someone a criminal?
00:06Getting caught.
00:09The anime starts with Terminator Hulk Hogan,
00:12killing a police officer and earning a 5-star wanted level.
00:15But it was just the new GTA 6 VR game played by our protagonist David.
00:20Not David, the murder retard singer.
00:22He goes on to his daily student life where he managed to break the school's VRSAO system
00:27because of the crack version of his VR headset.
00:31His mom apologized to the principal because of this piracy.
00:35As they went home, his mom was like,
00:36Please do better in school.
00:38We don't have any money and I'm forced to have two jobs.
00:41And I might resort to OnlyFans because we're out of cash.
00:44Then this robot gang shoots the car beside them and they crash.
00:49He wakes up where the rescuers ignored him and his mom for being poor.
00:53And his mom got hospitalized because she needed immediate surgery.
00:56The doctor tells him to pay their bills within 3 days.
00:59Or else they'll reboot his mom back to her stocked body.
01:02He goes to school the next day where he gets bullied for being poor.
01:06And this dude used his Kung Fu moves to beat the shit out of him.
01:09Kung Flu!
01:10They told him to drop out so that he wouldn't ruin the school's reputation.
01:14After getting beat up, the hospital called him to say that his mother died
01:17because they pulled out her power supply after failing to pay the bills.
01:21He goes back home to have some sad boy emo moments.
01:24Then he takes out this robot spine and goes to his quack doctor friend
01:28and told him to put this upgrade into his body.
01:31BODY!
01:32They start the surgery on a grape to install his new military grade spine.
01:37Then he goes back to school to get revenge on the bully.
01:39Why the hell would you take your jacket off and show them your new military grade spine?
01:44That should be your secret weapon in order to survive the society.
01:47Anyway, they start fighting where the bully uses his Kung Fu skills again.
01:51But David, not the murderer, used his new Quicksilver move to punch the bully.
01:56He dips out of school after the fight.
02:02Then we see the bully's dad observing David's new skills.
02:05And he's the owner of the Alaska Company, which is also the school that David is going to.
02:10He wants David to be captured and to be used as a guinea pig for their new weapon experiment
02:15because he showed no signs of side effects after installing his new spine.
02:19See? Told ya.
02:20David goes on to his daily life where he rides this train.
02:23Then he noticed this hot android stealing some micro SD cards from Alaskan employees.
02:28But David caught her in the act by using his Quicksilver move to stop her.
02:32Stop right there, criminal scum!
02:34After she tried to steal from him, they talk privately and she says,
02:38Sorry for stealing. I thought you're rich because of your school ID.
02:41But I guess you're just the son of a poor minimum wage clanker.
02:45Dude, my mom's ashes are still fresh. So can you stop roasting her, please?
02:49My name's Lucy, by the way.
02:51Say, you hate the rich, right?
02:53Because I can feel you're the type of person who watches Poki Mainstreams.
02:57So why not put your Quicksilver abilities into good use and let's steal from the rich?
03:02Alright, count me in.
03:03Then we see this stealing montage where they steal some micro SD cards and they split their earnings 70 to
03:0930.
03:10After the heist, David passed out of exhaustion.
03:12He gets transported by an ambulance but they hold him as a hostage
03:16because his new military grade spine could fetch for a high price in the black market.
03:20Then Lucy shows her girl boss skills to escape from the looters.
03:24She takes him to his quack doctor friend to assess his situation
03:27and she pays the quack doctor his half for the medical treatment.
03:30She took David to her house to talk privately
03:33and they have a VR date on the moon while doing some zero gravity shagging.
03:37His VR gooning got interrupted by Android Guile here because it was a setup all along
03:42so that they can retrieve his new military grade spine.
03:45Yeah, that date is just too good to be true.
03:47If a girl ever invites you into their house because she's alone,
03:50you'd better expect that they're gonna rip off your body parts and sell it to the black market.
03:55Okay, moving on.
03:56Gal talks to him and says,
03:58Bitch, how the fuck did you get my spine?
04:00Our dealer just ghosted us after I bought it from her.
04:03She died yesterday, retard clanker.
04:07Because some dumbass gangsters caught us in a crossfire.
04:10Well, you gotta pay us back with that thing because that ain't cheap.
04:13How about I'll work for you guys?
04:16Agreed.
04:16Lucy puts a tracker on her neck and we cut to the next day for his first job.
04:21And they have a mission briefing on this target to steal his micro SD card.
04:25He did it successfully with the help of Lucy.
04:27But the guy caught the pair hacking his car.
04:29You picked the wrong house, fool!
04:31Then this chase scene happens GTA style
04:33where one of the goons died after getting rolled over by a truck.
04:37And one guy managed to catch up to them.
04:40The fighting starts where Lucy tries to hold the goon back.
04:42But it kept fighting back and was about to kill David.
04:45Luckily, Gael shows up just in time as per and turns the goon into a purple mist.
04:50Gael welcomes him into the group by celebrating in this pub.
04:53Then he gave him his first salary and some immunosuppressants
04:56so that he can keep on using his quicksilver move without having side effects.
05:01Then this big wash shows up to confront Gael about the mission
05:04because the guy just changed his router password
05:06and they can't connect to his Wi-Fi.
05:08So he wants Gael to continue on with this mission.
05:11Then this Rebecca girl shows up to give him a drink as a welcome toast.
05:15We cut to the next episode and see this montage
05:17where David trains with a gang on how to be a professional edger.
05:21Hold up! Wait a minute!
05:22I mean edgerunner.
05:23Then we see him upgrading his lungs so that he can have more stamina on running with Lucy.
05:28Why are you running?
05:29And she gives him this micro SD card that contains basic training regimen.
05:33Then we jump to this scene where they encounter this rogue cyborg
05:36who one-shotted Rebecca's older brother for being too annoying.
05:40The dude is doing number one peacefully
05:42but this retarded clanker disturbs him
05:45so of course he's gonna blow your head into smithereens.
05:48I would basically do the same thing if someone is trying to disturb me while I'm taking a leak.
05:53Anyway, a fight breaks out and David was worried about Lucy getting attacked
05:56so for the first time he shoots someone.
05:59The guy stood back up but Gael was there to finish the clanker.
06:02Gael tells Lucy to get treated and David goes with her.
06:05After healing, the pair talked heart-to-heart and of course they started shagging.
06:12After shagging, we cut to another mission where they kidnap this movie director.
06:16But they got stunned after the guy used his EMP's skill.
06:19Good night girl.
06:19And he takes David away.
06:21The gang chased after them using the tracker Lucy placed on David.
06:24We cut to David waking up in the sewers full of dead cyborgs.
06:28Then he kills these two cops and the five-star wanted chase scene starts
06:31where he got wasted in the end.
06:33Foreshadowing, everybody!
06:34But it was just a VR simulation because Stanley Kubrick here found out that he's an edgelord.
06:40And he noticed the spine in his back that was previously owned by James Norris,
06:44the son of Chuck Norris.
06:45Then he starts the VR simulation again and this time he's going to play the clockwork orange eye torture scene.
06:53But Lucy in Guiles GF, Abby from The Last of Us Part 2 arrives just in time to save David.
06:58Lucy stops the VR torture.
07:00But Stanley Kubrick brings out his armed drones that he ordered from Ukraine to kill them.
07:04And of course, through teamwork with hacking, shooting, and distracting, they destroyed the drones.
07:09They interrogated him where he gave all the deets.
07:12He talks to David privately and was like,
07:14Heh, you're gonna go insane if you keep using your Quicksilver move.
07:18Just like the previous guy who owned that spine.
07:20The son of Chuck Norris, James Norris.
07:22Then we cut to the next mission where Stanley Kubrick meets up with the bully's dad privately
07:27so that he can give him his new directed porn movies.
07:31But it was a trap all along set up by the gang.
07:33And Lucy jammed up his signal so that he can't call for backup.
07:37Bully dad starts fighting back using his needle bullets.
07:40But David countered with his Quicksilver move to stop him.
07:43And Guile flattered him in the face to immobilize him.
07:45Stanley Kubrick died after failing to dodge the needle attacks.
07:48And he gave David his cryptic smile as we cut to the next episode.
07:52I can literally imagine Stanley Kubrick doing this in his deathbed.
07:55He's the GOAT director in my opinion.
07:58But just look at his face.
07:59He has this scary face which you can see in your nightmares.
08:02Probably because he was directing the moon landing.
08:05Okay, no one cares.
08:06The next episode starts with Guile slowly becoming a psychopath clanker
08:09because of his reliance on the heroin immunosuppressants.
08:14And he punched Hacker Girl here after losing control of himself.
08:18They call David and Lucy for a meeting.
08:20And Guile wants Lucy to replace Hacker Girl to retrieve the bully dad's data for their mission.
08:25Lucy declines the offer because she hates the rich and that's what Pokimane said.
08:29And we hate the rich.
08:30Aren't you the rich?
08:31No!
08:32But with David supporting her by her side, she agrees to do it.
08:36The hacking montage starts where she hacks her way into the guy's mind.
08:39Then the guy woke up and David was about to inject him with a tranquilizer.
08:43But he was like,
08:43Please David, stop and help me.
08:45I know you had some gay ass beef with my son.
08:48But I already aborted him because he's a loser.
08:50And you David are fit to be my new adopted son because you're talented.
08:54And also your mom is kinda hot.
08:56I will not betray my friends because that's what One Piece taught me.
08:59Lol, this is the criminal world.
09:01They're just using you for their own benefit.
09:03So can you please help me and call me daddy?
09:06Dude, just fucking inject him with a serum.
09:08I mean, isn't it the same if David sides with them?
09:10These globalists are also gonna use him for his talent.
09:13And they also did your mom dirty by paying a fuckton of money for your school fees.
09:18They have no heart and don't want you to succeed.
09:20You research these globalists?
09:22They like to beat women and rape people.
09:24Meanwhile, Lucy was struggling to hack because the dad was conscious.
09:27Guile and Abby show up and the bully dad starts flatlining.
09:30Abby immediately disconnects Lucy from the hacking to save her life.
09:34Then the NYPD shows up to rescue the bully dad.
09:36The gang tries to escape where David and Lucy heads to the getaway vehicle first.
09:40On the other hand, Abby and Guile fights the police.
09:43David rush to the pair to save them.
09:45But it was too late because Guile starts spazzing out and Abby dies after jumping in front of him to
09:50save him.
09:50Guile kills all the police because he's now a spaz stick.
09:53The ICE squad is on their way and Guile tells David to leave him.
09:56Because his time has finally come Master Oogway style.
09:59My time has come.
10:00Then another fight breaks out where David returns to Lucy along with Guile's metal hands as a memento.
10:06We cut to a timescape where David is now the leader of the gang.
10:09And he's now buffed as fuck kinda like CJ in San Andreas.
10:12And also he has his own personal rookie in the team.
10:15That guy is 100% going to die.
10:17They do this rescue mission where they kill this gang of clankers.
10:21And David finally puts Guile's hand upgrades into his body.
10:24And also the rookie died because he's just a side character.
10:27See?
10:28What did I tell ya?
10:29They completed the mission and celebrate in the old drinking pub they used to go to.
10:33He repairs his body and hacker girl calls him.
10:35Because someone wants to see him for a new mission.
10:38He meets up with a client and it's the big boss man from episode 3.
10:41And he wants David to continue the mission Guile failed to do.
10:44Which is to get some data from the Alaska company.
10:47He accepts the mission because it's gonna pay a gajillion bucks.
10:50He heads back home to Lucy.
10:51Where he convinces her to join the team again.
10:54But she declines because she's still not ready.
10:56Then we see them having a date outside the city.
10:58And Lucy finally opens up and tells her backstory.
11:01Where she used to be an Alaskan project.
11:04And they were raised just to hack until they die.
11:06But they got so good and they managed to escape the matrix and she's the only survivor left.
11:11So that's why deep dive hacking is still traumatizing for her.
11:14David's gunning arms start shaking and Lucy is afraid that he'll end up like Guile.
11:19Foreshadowing everybody!
11:20But they just sex it out and we cut to this guy.
11:23Deep diving to retrieve some data that has been tampered.
11:26And Lucy ends up killing him.
11:27Target neutralized.
11:28The next episode starts with David assassinating these Alaskan workers.
11:32And he's slowly becoming the psychopath clanker.
11:35We cut to Big Boss talking privately to one of his clients.
11:38And he's been given the new quest to capture someone alive.
11:41Then he goes to Hacker Girl to talk about this mission.
11:43Meanwhile David is on another fighting mission.
11:46Where he spaced out and was about to die.
11:48After remembering his assassination mission earlier.
11:51But Rebecca saves him as per and the mission ends after they killed all the enemies.
11:55Rebecca talks to him privately and tells him to stop using his upgrades for a while.
11:59This fucking retard is so stubborn.
12:01Look at what happened to Guile you moron.
12:03He was so reliant on his upgrades and was permanently using heroin to combat the side effects.
12:08And look at him now he's dead.
12:09That should have been an automatic lesson for anyone.
12:14Anyway we cut to him passing out and Lucy takes him to the quack doctor.
12:17And the doctor was like, stop using your upgrades for a while or else you will go bonkers.
12:23David pushed him to the wall and replied, dude just give me some stronger drugs.
12:27Because I'm not gonna end up a full-blown retard like the others.
12:30The doctor gives him his last round of drugs because he knows he's not coming back after this.
12:35As they walk home the pair have some serious talk about their situation.
12:38Where Lucy wants him to stop this job and live peacefully.
12:42But David on the other hand also wants Lucy to join back in the gang.
12:45They decided to split up for now and talk more about this at home.
12:48And Lucy tracks down this hacker to kill him.
12:51But it was a trap all along set up by hacker girl and big boss man.
12:54Then Lucy blacks out.
12:55See?
12:56This is why you don't trust women.
12:57They are envious of other women who are better than them.
13:00And they'll try to bring other people down so they can be on top.
13:03Kinda like those two girls who shaved her BFF's eyebrows.
13:06Why can't we be friends?
13:09Why can't we be friends?
13:12Okay enough meme tangents.
13:14We got to the next episode and they're on a new mission.
13:16To stop these Alaskan vehicles and take whatever is inside in the truck.
13:20And we see hacker girl's flashback talking to big boss man.
13:23And this whole mission is a trap just for David and Lucy.
13:25Because she found out that Lucy was trying to hack every recorded data of David in the Alaska company.
13:31So that the globalist won't go for him.
13:33And she also found out Lucy's past ties to Alaska.
13:35The flashback ends and the mission starts where they manage to separate the convoy.
13:39David used his upgrades even though Rebecca warned him not to use it.
13:43And he kills all the NPC Alaskan guards.
13:46He goes to the front of the truck and notice that it's on autopilot.
13:50Then the gang use some teamwork to stop the truck.
13:52Hacker girl starts hacking to open the truck.
13:54Then a fleet of Militech soldiers start shooting them to retrieve what's inside the truck.
13:59Sorry I forgot to explain what Militech is.
14:01And it's so late in the episode to explain this but I'm gonna do it anyway.
14:04So basically this is Alaska's main rival tech company.
14:08And big boss man works for them.
14:09And now he's steering the pot to make these two companies go into an all-out war.
14:14So that he can be on top when both companies fall.
14:16Now you're up to speed.
14:17We cut back to the gang and hacker girl opened the truck.
14:20And inside is the most badass upgrade they have ever seen in their life.
14:24All is hot.
14:24Meanwhile we see big boss man making a deal with the Alaska company to hand over David and Lucy.
14:30Then he hacks Lucy and pretends to call David and he's like,
14:33David, Militech is coming for you and me.
14:35We're gonna see Gile again if you don't use those upgrades.
14:38So use it and save us because I believe in you.
14:41Hacker girl gives the controller to him.
14:43Rebecca tells him to stop or else he'll go full retard.
14:46But he hops on anyway and starts the upgrade.
14:48Well I can already see the ending of this show.
14:50Meanwhile Lucy wakes up and she tries to escape.
14:52She calls David and tells him that this is all a trap set up by big boss man.
14:56But she was immediately stunned and big boss man did a face reveal on David.
15:00Where he captured Lucy back to the mothership.
15:02David gets pissed and his new upgrades are almost done.
15:05However he's also going full retard because of the side effects.
15:11Luckily Rebecca had the presence of mind to inject David some heroin.
15:15Right before the upgrade made him retarded.
15:18Driver man falls off to them and tells the pair that hacker girl also betrayed them.
15:22And as hacker girl cross the soldiers they start shooting the gang.
15:25But now it's David's turn to show his new Hulkbuster upgrades.
15:29Then he starts wiping all of the Militech soldiers as a one man army.
15:32And he tells the gang that their next target is big boss man.
15:36Then we cut to the final episode where the gang is on the run.
15:38And David is almost at full retard level because he's running out of heroin.
15:42Meanwhile we see hacker girl also getting betrayed by big boss man.
15:46Because he's silencing everyone who knows about these upgrades.
15:49Then we cut back to the gang where hacker girl called them one last time.
15:53Because she wants to atone for her sins and she gives the gang Lucy's GPS coordinates.
15:58And they're heading straight to the Alaska tower to hand over Lucy.
16:01The gang intercepted big boss man's flying car.
16:03In order for David to get Lucy.
16:05They manage to shake David off and they get to the tower.
16:08Then big boss man says,
16:09Special Amazon delivery?
16:11Here is your package?
16:12One hacker girl.
16:13Thanks.
16:14Just put her there and we'll pay you online with a tip.
16:16Then David goes inside using his quicksilver move.
16:19He gets everyone's weapons using his magneto powers and starts shooting everyone.
16:23But another big bad cyborg shows up so that he can have a final showdown with David.
16:28They start fighting where big boss man died after getting heated out of the building.
16:32Then David and Lucy made it back to Rebecca and Mr. Driver.
16:35But big cyborg man was chasing them and he smashed Rebecca like a burger.
16:39Damn, I really thought Rebecca would survive.
16:41Anyway, the final showdown starts where David gets cocked.
16:44Mr. Driver takes Lucy away with their getaway vehicle.
16:47And he told her that this is David's last request.
16:49For her to survive and to split the money they've earned.
16:52Then we cut back to David where his life flashed before his eyes.
16:55And he was finally executed by big cyborg man.
16:59A time skip happens and we see Lucy on the moon reminiscing about her memories with David.
17:03And that's the end of the anime.
17:05This anime gets a cyberpunk 2077 Keanu Reeves out of a Blade Runner 2049 Ryan Gosling.
17:36And that's the end of the anime.
