Lazarus
The year is 2052 — an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity prevails across the globe. The reason for this: mankind has been freed from sickness and pain. Nobel Prize winning neuroscientist Dr. Skinner has developed a miracle cure-all drug with no apparent drawbacks called Hapuna. Hapuna soon becomes ubiquitous… and essential. However, soon after Hapuna is officially introduced, Dr. Skinner vanishes. Three years later, the world has moved on. But Dr. Skinner has returned — this time, as a harbinger of doom. Skinner announces that Hapuna has a short half-life. Everyone who has taken it will die approximately three years later. Death is coming for this sinful world — and coming soon. As a response to this threat, a special task force of 5 agents is gathered from across the world to save humanity from Skinner’s plan. This group is called “Lazarus.” Can they find Skinner and develop a vaccine before time runs out? (Source: Adult Swim)

*** <p align="justify">Shinichirō Watanabe is deemed one of the most respected anime directors currently. Once he’s on the director’s chair—or in other projects that he’s attached to—it automatically becomes one of the most pristine, unique anime, due to his unique direction that went against the wa…
Read full review on AniList →Shinichiro Watanabe was one of those guys who was impossible to criticize for years. When you’re the name people most commonly associate with a show as lauded as Cowboy Bebop fans are gonna be ride-or-die for you regardless of the quality of your successive projects. You can argue that Bebop isn’t p…
Read full review on AniList →I've been defending Adult Swim for a long time. And contrary to whatever your first reaction to that sentence or this entire review is, I'm still going to. But I am not the same Adult Swim fan that I was in 2018. Simply because, well, Adult Swim isn't the same as it was in 2018. Toonami certainly is…
Read full review on AniList →It feels like ever since 2022, original anime has been in a death spiral. Fewer and fewer non-adaptations are coming out, and the ones that do mostly sputter out into obsolescence before they even finish airing. When was the last time an original show really, truly _mattered?_ Lycoris Recoil, maybe?…
Read full review on AniList →The world is ending in thirty days, and everyone is shocked, as announced by a notable celebrity who has suddenly resurfaced in the public eye. With only one message: "Find me." The message leads to the hysteria of people partying and panic. Additionally, a fraction of these people are frenzied in t…
Read full review on AniList →I had to google how to write a review for this awful show. Genuinely the worst show, including both tv and anime, that I have ever watched. It is such a waste of a great setup, where a team has 30 days to find a cure for a miracle drug that turns out to kill the person taking it before everyone star…

Read full review on AniList →__Animation__ The visual quality of Lazarus is incredible from the very first episode, with Axel’s scenes providing breathtaking movement and choreography. During fights, there’s constant mix-ups with the camera, which felt unique and kept me engaged. Even during discussions there’s the way charac…
Read full review on AniList →LAZARUS commits what are—in my opinion—the worst crimes a series can commit, that being boring and forgettable. Don’t get me wrong, there are points in this that are actively bad but for the most part everything's just *fine*. Our main characters are all assigned quirky backstories, many of which…
Read full review on AniList →Lazarus is frustrating because it is one of those anime with heaps of promise that are wasted in the end, as opposed to an anime that is aggressively bad most of the time. Having the name of Shinichirō Watanabe on it, and being animated by MAPPA, expectations were not only high, but astronomical. An…

Lazarus has some of the biggest names and entities behind it. Starting off with Shinichirō Watanabe, the director behind C…
Read full review on AniList →The newest work by iconic director Shinichirou Watanabe, the man responsible for classic anime shows like Cowboy Bebop, Space Dandy, and Samurai Champloo. With animes like those in his catelog, it is no wonder that there was so much hype and expectations for Lazarus. With animation, it was being don…
Read full review on AniList →Come on, guys, it wasn’t that bad. While Lazarus is far from perfect, and certainly not a contender for “anime of the year”, it would be unfair to dismiss it entirely. Some things it does well, sometimes even great. And those deserve a few words. The biggest reason I was able to enjoy Lazarus comes…
Read full review on AniList →Despite a few nonsensical shortcomings and plotting that could have been solved with a few extra episodes, I personally enjoyed myself overall. I think the expressions it was desperately trying to convey were for the most part at least half successful, alongside a fun enough cast and often mesmerizi…
Read full review on AniList →Vibes >>> Story. Lazarus felt as if it wanted to be similar to Monster so bad. While the fight scenes, animation and music were impressive, everything else felt incredibly lackluster. The Positives I have a lot of negatives about this anime, so I'll start off with the positive factors: those bei…
