Akudama Drive has arrived on Crunchyroll, complete with an English dub and subtitles. The 12-episode series, which premiered in Fall 2020, plunges viewers into a dystopian, cyberpunk future where a group of criminal anti-heroes, known as 'Akudama,' are forced to undertake a dangerous mission.
Produced by Studio Pierrot, the anime is known for its vibrant, neon-drenched visuals and high-octane action. Each episode cleverly borrows titles and thematic elements from famous films, weaving a narrative focused on a tomboyish protagonist who finds herself entangled with a motley crew of assassins, hackers, and thieves. The ensemble cast navigates a world controlled by a corrupt government and oppressive police force.
With a MAL score of 7.57, Akudama Drive offers a self-contained cyberpunk narrative that fans of stylish action and dark crime thrillers can binge.
