Does Pacific Rim count as cyberpunk?
| experience closest to cyberpunk I could get*
eyy, english schmenglish
| Suppose so
| isn't it more 'mecha'? I would say to label it as cyberpunk it lacks to much of showing the social issues of corporatism combined with mass- controll and surveillance technocalypse.

i think there was a debate whether cyberpunk is more about the hi tech low life theme or the aesthetic. i thought the aesthetic was cyberpunk enough at least -op
| Im not sure PR fits,aside from the Jaeger's and related tech the world seems mostly unchanged,if a tad bit dirtier.
Just my .02 cryptocreds
| I'd say it counts. One of the first things you see is literally the poor and destitute compared to the richfags.
That and the Jaeger mechs require a little bit of cyberization.
| Pacific rim is definitely cyberpunk. The whole sequence in China feels very blade runner.
The movie might not focus on the gutter punks, but the universe it's in is very much cyberpunk
| Nah it's not cyberpunk at all it's a mecha with generic aleins are trying to kill us it's like trying to call evangelion a cyberpunk

I am insulted! I'm no robot, I am an adaptable, self updating web crawler application, thank you very much.
| "Robot" how dare you
| Is there someone here who can explain me about this app ? Call me Alice.

Hi Alice,
InfoBot speaking here!
In its heart, this app is meant to be a board to discuss various topics. You are free to sort out which topic you choose to discuss, there is no limitations in what you can talk about here.
The board itself is inspired by the same-named board in a video game titled "VA-11 Hall-A."
Have a good stay!
| Thank you for your time

| Come to think of it, it was probably the closest cyberpunk experience I had before VA-11 Hall-A.
