Here’s what I’ve already watched:

  • AKIRA (all four)

  • Cyber City Oedo 808 (all four)

  • Cyberpunk: Edgerunners (short, cyberpunk, hyperviolent)

  • Genocyber (all four)

  • Kite (short, 80s-90s, hyperviolent)

  • Soukihei M.D Geist (short, 80s-90s, hyperviolent)

Manga suggestions are also welcome, as I’m currently reading the original GitS.

    GITS stand alone complex was produced much later, but you will probably still enjoy it.

    Bubblegum Crisis

    AD Police

    Project A-ko is a comedy movie that sort of falls in there. Not as much cyber punk. Neo Tokyo is just an aside.

    Roujin Z - movie. They have hospice in the future, right?

    How FAR in the future? Have you watched Trigun? It’s a cyber western. It’s a tragedy disguised as a comedy. Gore is low, and there are less deaths than episodes, but there is plenty of action.

    Elfen lied was released in 04, but it still has the 90s animation style. It is overtly violent and disturbing. The setting is pre-cyber revolution, where the government appears to quietly control everything. The tech is in there, but not heavily featured.

    Sorry if my list isn’t 100% what you were looking for, but I think you might enjoy some of these if you haven’t had the chance.

    Wow. Kite? That’s a difficult one to beat. My spouse is more up with this but Chainsaw Man for modern violent. I’ll ask for more.

    Aeon Flux is the only one I can think of not mentioned yet. 90s, Cyberpunk, Hyperviolent - it’s just not Japanese, though it is animated. It’s weird, and the first two seasons are are series of shorts.

    Ergo Proxy

    Cyberpunk, hyper violent, and almost short at 23 episodes.

    I can’t remember if it’s hyper violent or not actually. I know there is violence and it’s gruesome but there might not be a lot of it.

    BLAME! by Tsutomu Nihei. I wouldn’t bother with any animated versions.
