I’m wondering if it’s gonna be Trigger again. That’s mostly why I bothered with it in the first place. But they tend not to do sequels, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t.
Yeah if its trigger again then I’ll be down but otherwise I’m out unless i hear some big buzz.
Maybe we get something with storytelling and on-screen character development instead!
Not gonna hold my breath. Edgerunners was amazing and I can imagine Netflix wanting to milk it dry.
'Would like to hear that they’re working on a Solarpunk series.
The problem with Solarpunk as a fiction genre is that it’s much harder to write than any of the other --punks. Solarpunk has a positive bent to it in comparison to the usual cynical tone that the others have. This makes drama and friction appear to be much less of a problem for the characters in the world.
There is a way to do it, but it’s harder because you can’t use the same story template that the others use.
Failure of imagination really. A newly established status quo always has its ghosts to reckon with, and its detractors.
It doesn’t have to be an internal threat either. It could just as easily be an external threat to the society/world.
It’s not that hard to imagine either. My mind immediately jumps to a sort of post-apocalypse where climate change caused the governments of the world to collapse. Sounds bleak at first, but you can make the setting solarpunk by showing how people adapted to live in the new world sustainably, and are thriving in the absence of oppressive hierarchies maintained by corporations and states. The external threat could take all kinds of forms, but I think the most compelling would be a cyberpunk city-state that survived the collapse and is now attempting to re-establish governance over the thriving solarpunks.
Just sounds like star trek
In the context of anime, a CGDCT show with a solarpunk aesthetic wouldn’t seem out of place.
