Exclusive interview with legendary anime creator Shinichir Watanabe

55% Informative
ShinichirÅ Watanabe ’s new anime, Lazarus , is a sci-fi tale evoking the same vibes as his seminal ’ 90s classic, Cowboy Bebop .
Set in 2052 , Lazarus sees the world on the precipice of unprecedented peace and stability thanks to a revolutionary painkiller named Hapna .
Keiko Nobumoto was a long-time collaborator with the late writer of Watanabe's Cowboy Bebop anime series, Lazarus .
The late writer also contributed to the creation of Macross Plus , Carole and Tuesday , Samurai Champloo , and Space Dandy.
Lazarus is a sci-fi animated series set in the future and feels wholly grounded in reality.
Watanabe wanted the anime to be grounded in reality as well.
The anime is inspired by real-world events such as the opioid crisis and the covid pandemic.
The series is teeming with mania over wellness conspiracies, an overwhelming distrust in big pharma, and self-destructive desires for escapism.
