Texhnolyze

2003 · 1 season

A suffocating, glacial descent into a dying underground city, demanding patience and rewarding it with oppressive atmosphere and existential dread.

Overview: Denizens of Lux have come to call it "The City" and treat it as a sentient force. Three factions vie for control of the city: the Organo, a strictly professional conglomerate with ties to the criminal underworld in the prosthetics business; the Union, a fanatical populist group interfering with Organo's affairs; and Racan, a marauding group of Texhnolyzed youths.
How it feels: Bleak, dark, melancholic and eerie. Slow-burning and demanding.
About: Isolation, power, corruption, survival
Content: Strong violence and gore. Mild sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
