Synopsis

​In 2052, humanity celebrates unprecedented peace, thanks to Hapuna—a miracle drug eradicating pain and illness. Three years later, its creator, Dr. Skinner, resurfaces with a grim revelation: Hapuna is a delayed toxin, and death looms for all who took it. With just 30 days to avert catastrophe, a global task force called Lazarus assembles to locate Skinner and develop a cure.

Lazarus Review: I'm Intrigued By New Anime's Core Concept & Spectacular Action Yet It's Wrapped In A Story That Moves At A Glacial Pace
5/10

Lazarus improves on the typical action of an anime show, but beyond that, it's a slow burn to get to the actual meat of the show's premise.
