she was a nurse/emt/first responder. and stole it off the dead guy while he was in the back of their ambulance.
It is a bit crazy, she wasn't investigated by the company, after its disappearance at the crime scene. or, that the company had no tracking chips in it.

I didn't really like the animation style and flow but everything else was surprisingly very good: the mundane ultraviolence, Night City ambiance, how everyone is in for themselves, etc.

Watched it again in English and it's vastly superior that way. Voice actors for Maine the rest of the crew are all awesome.

The Tigerclaw gang dudes still shout in ridiculous broken Japanese even with English enabled which I found incredibly hilarious for some reason.

This guy does the Fixer voice and it's just so perfect:

Watched it and it was ok. I don’t like anime so all the anime tropes are just annoying to me. The game bugs being put in were funny. The casual violence and disregard for life was well done, violent bleak future like Dredd, Bladerunner, etc.

I fucking hated the way they talked on the phone, they kept repeating words multiple times in their sentences. I’m not sure if they were trying to put an emotional stutter in there or what, but the VAs just repeated the words as if it were part of a normal sentence, sounded awful.

Yea it's how netrunners talk to each other in the net and on forums etc. It's like the super-future version of our current acronyms and old l337speak

My interpretation was less this, and more that since the communication was coming directly from their brains without having to actually speak, it was more stream-of-consciousness. Like they couldn't stop doing it if they tried.

Sure could be both, it happens in the game too in some of the chat logs between netrunners and the like but never really makes it in to the meatspace anywhere

Got around to watching this - was really fantastic and elevated the setting of the game by a lot.

Rewatched in english, this might be one of my favorite animes...

Yeah, Chys gave me the heads up that the Japanese version was a bit odd so I went with the dub. Do not regret at all. It's also nice to be able to go take a piss and not miss anything unlike subbed shows.

Saw first episode. Looked pretty cool.

The story seems dumb though. Some stupid single mom tried living beyond her means and suddenly I'm supposed to feel about her? Her son acted like a douchebag and she was deluding herself that he was amazing.

Just keep watching. 1st episode mostly just lays down some of the initial central plot points that drive the show later on
