LatestPaxtown, a corrupt capital, torn by crime and preyed by the mafia. In this rotten megalopolis, Richard Aldana, street smart, without ties or ambitions, is a boxer in his off time. But this was all before everything got flipped on its head. Overnight, Aldana finds himself with Siri, a girl targeted by "The Order of the Lion," a religious group that thinks the girl is the key to "the other world".
Writing
Dialogue so aggressively French it circles back to genius.
Sound
Punk-jazz score that shouldn't work but absolutely does.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Based on a cult French comic that ran for over a decade; the anime compresses years of lore into hyperkinetic chaos. Fans still debate if it captured the comic's soul or just its nervous energy.
The rotoscoped fight scenes used real MMA fighters as reference, which explains why Aldana looks exhausted and technically wrong in the most realistic way possible.
