Cyberpunk: Edgerunners MADNESS launched on Friday
Kadokawa revealed on Friday that Asano (BNA: Brand New Animal) and Bartosz Sztybor (CD PROJEKT RED) launched the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners MADNESS manga prequel to the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime on Kadokawa's Comic Alive+ manga website. The manga is available in Taiwan with Traditional Chinese, and will launch on December 20.
Kadokawa describes the manga:
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners MADNESS, the first comic series based on this anime, serves as a prequel to Cyberpunk: Edgerunners featuring the highly popular siblings Pilar and Rebecca as its protagonists. The comic portrays not only the comical and energetic actions of the siblings but also the compelling and finely woven story that sheds light on the sibling's dreams and upbringing, which were not explored in the anime series. Furthermore, a new character, the mysterious man known as Safran makes an appearance, driving the story into the realm of MADNESS.
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, the anime series by Studio Trigger based on CD PROJEKT RED's Cyberpunk 2077 game, debuted on Netflix in September 2022. The game is itself based on Mike Pondsmith's Cyberpunk tabletop RPG game series.
