Lazarus: The Spiritual Successor to Cowboy Bebop
Dive into the dystopian world of Lazarus, the latest masterpiece from Shinichiro Watanabe, creator of Cowboy Bebop. This ambitious sci-fi anime plunges viewers into a near-future where humanity faces extinction after a "miracle" painkiller called Hapna turns out to be a deadly toxin with a three-and-a-half-year expiration date.
The premiere episode "Goodbye, Cruel World" introduces us to a five-member task force assembled to track down Dr. Skinner, the elusive scientist behind Hapna, who may hold the key to humanity's salvation. With only 30 days remaining before mass extinction, the clock is ticking. What makes Lazarus stand out isn't just its high-stakes premise, but how it delivers on multiple sensory levels. The animation strikes a perfect balance between nostalgic Bebop-style visuals and fresh, innovative camera techniques that immerse viewers in the action. Most notably, the jazz-infused soundtrack doesn't just accompany the story—it actively shapes the narrative, functioning as its own character within this richly textured world.
While the show demonstrates exceptional craft in its visuals and sound design, questions remain about whether all five task force members truly bring essential skills to the mission. Some characters appear to have overlapping abilities, potentially signaling character development to come rather than practical necessity. Regardless, Lazarus delivers a captivating first episode that blends dystopian themes with stylish execution, earning a solid 3.5/5 rating that promises even better things to come.
