DESCRIPTION:
(from Adult Swim's press release, February 2025) From anime legend Shinichirō Watanabe ("Cowboy Bebop"), the highly anticipated new series "Lazarus" follows secret agents hunting for a vaccine to save humanity. The new anime will premiere Saturday, April 5 at midnight on Adult Swim during the network's Toonami action/anime block. The official trailer was just released HERE. Marking Watanbe's return to the sci-fi genre, "Lazarus" is a pulse-pounding thriller about a miracle drug, Hapna, that presumably frees anyone who takes it from all pain. However, it is later revealed that Hapna has a fatal consequence: all who have taken the drug will perish. With only thirty days to save humanity, a group of agents must find a vaccine before all is lost. |
