Do you think a game series should strive to exist for as long as possible (Mario, CoD, Final Fantasy) or should developers - publishers too - know that it's time to retire the ship before it even has the chance to sink? (Sly Cooper, Killzone, Max Payne)<...
Someone online summarized this show as Black Lagoon meets Cyberpunk... not really. Akudama Drive is it's own beast, and one that especially for the first half, had me rolling on the floor laughing.

It's been a long time since I recommend a novel, because it's been a long time since a novel grabbed me. I've attempted many, but they're just so often bogged down in one of my biggest pet peeves of setting up the story rather than telling it.
Not so with this one.

If you want to get inspired, watch Robert Rodriguez's $7k classic. This film rarely feels its budget due to Robert's superb directing and editing of his written script, that walks a perfect tight rope between serious and silly.

I'm not recommending this show with nearly the same enthusiasm as things like Spy X Family, Arcane, or Everything, Everywhere, All At Once. Marvel's clichés appear throughout Moon Knight, but what's so refreshing is that they're not the main star of the show.
