This perfectly fits with the best definition of cyberpunk I’ve ever heard: “the future, but the 80s never ended.”
(Incidentally, I’ve heard Japan described this way as well.)
- reaperducer 4y agoIncidentally, I’ve heard Japan described this way as well While I won't pretend to know as much about Japan as someone who lives there full-time, I've visited 14 times, often for several weeks at a stretch, and in real life, modern Japan is very different from the cyberpunk fantasies spread around the internet by people who have never been, and never will. It's still my favorite country to visit, so I watch NHK World every day. But it's not the cartoon/tech/ninja cliché world promulgated online. It's actually much better.
