Appleseed Alpha

In the ruins of a fractured New York City, where cyborgs dominate and humanity clings to the edges, former SWAT officer Deunan and her cyborg partner Briareos find themselves caught in a city ruled by a delusional, dapper mayor obsessed with an impending alien invasion. As tensions rise and the mayor’s paranoia spirals, Deunan’s band of human outcasts may be the only hope to prevent total collapse—but bridging the gap between flesh and machine won’t be easy. A gripping blend of high-octane action and philosophical tension, Appleseed Alpha reimagines Shirow’s iconic world with a fresh, grounded take on survival, identity, and what it means to be human.
