The year is 2052 – an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity reigns across the world. The reason for this: humanity has been freed from disease and pain. Nobel Prize-winning neuroscientist Dr. Skinner then developed a miracle drug called Hapuna, which has no apparent side effects. Hapuna soon becomes ubiquitous… and essential. However, shortly after Hapuna's official introduction, Dr. Skinner disappears.

So mark your calendar and get ready for another masterpiece. Therefore, “Lazarus” promises to be one of the great highlights of 2025, and here at AnimeNew, we will follow every detail of this journey.

Finally, Watanabe directed notable anime productions such as Cowboy Bebop, Macross Plus, Samurai Champloo, Space Dandy, Carole & Tuesday, and Terror in Resonance.
