Edgerunners 2 trailer sparks animation praise and fears of heartbreak
Before the announced October 20 Netflix release of the ten-episode Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2, trailer commenters praised TRIGGER's animation, joked about heartbreak and speculated on character relationships. These pre-premiere responses are not reviews of the finished episodes.
Why it is trending
Separate October 14 threads in r/anime, r/television and r/Edgerunners discuss animation, expected tragedy, character dynamics and cyberpunk technology. They show different discussion spaces, not Korean-wide consensus.
Introduction
One r/anime user expected to cry again after seeing the trailer. Others praised its animation and speculated about new character relationships, reflecting expectations formed before the premiere.
What happened
On Aug. 21, CD PROJEKT RED announced the date and trailer. Studio TRIGGER collaborates on the standalone series, which will stream on Netflix. The reveal itself was in August, not October.
Key facts
Official CD PROJEKT RED and Netflix statements announced October 20, 2026 as the release date, a ten-episode standalone story, a new cast and TRIGGER's participation. Reddit ideas about deaths, romance or Blackwall are theories, not confirmed outcomes. Earlier CMS coverage is withdrawn.
Background
These trailer discussions reveal expectations fans projected onto the new cast before the announced premiere, not a representative assessment after watching the show.
What to watch next
The actual episodes and audience response after release require separate evidence. Trailer predictions should not be presented as canonical plot revelations.
People’s reactions
Independent Reddit forums discuss animation, expected tragedy, relationships and technology, but their comments are not a Korean audience poll.
A sarcastic response described Blackwall tech as if it could only bring good luck.
