Cyberpunk Edgerunners prequel manga coming from Kadokawa

Written by Ross Locksley on 13 Dec 2024



Kadokawa has announced that it will be launching a manga based on the popular Trigger anime adaptation of the Cyberpunk 2077 game, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. The prequel manga will debut on the Comic Alive+ website, with Dark Horse providing a translation and printed editions in the new year. 

Synopsis:
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.

Fans will likely be delighted to have more adventures with Rebecca who quickly became a fan-favourite character despite the gaming studio's initial reluctance to have a loli character in the anime.
