Anime characters who are partly, or entirely, technological. Or from works featuring sci-fi/cyberpunk/steampunk settings.
- Posts must feature "cyber moe". That is, anime characters who are cyborgs, robots, or very obviously from the future. Science fiction, cyberpunk, and even steampunk.
- No nudity. Lewd art is fine, but mark it NSFW.
- If posting a more suggestive piece, or one with simply a lot of skin, consider still marking it NSFW.
- Include a link to the artist in post body, if you can
- AI Generated content is not allowed.
- Positivity only. No shitting on the art, the artists, or the fans of the art/artist.
- Finally, all rules of the parent instance still apply, of course.
SauceNao can be used to effectively reverse search the creator of a piece, if you do not know it.
You may also leave the post body blank or mention @saucechan@ani.social, in which case the bot will attempt to find and provide the source in a comment.

She was my first anime crush, I really do think Ilya did a hell of a job on the Major's look for 2045.
It's too bad 2045 really didn't live up to what the SAC series used to be.
My personal favourite rendition of Kusanagi has to be her look in Arise, so while the "new seasons" might not've been up to scratch, I do like this blend of OG SAC major with the Arise major.
I've never seen 2045 nor am I interested. Production IG was GITS, and you can't change that.
It's a shame all the licensed stuff from Nexon and the movie went kaput, GITS is to Japan and Cyberpunk what Blade Runner was to the West. If not the genre at large, going off the stuff from RST especially.
I don't think there is a single sci-fi thing in existence since the original manga and initial movie, that wasn't touched by them in some way.
They are foundational. It's been tragic to see the name of the franchise plastered on things that barely even begin to explore the concepts that made the series groundbreaking.
The second film Innocence was also really good. The parade in Taiwan is probably my favourite scene from all adaptations.
Oh yes, but there was nine years between it and the first film.
I would simply posit that when it comes to impacting the sci-fi/cyberpunk genre, the first film stood alone for long enough to leave a mark all on its own, before the franchise really became, well, a franchise.
The SAC anime and Arise are also big favourites of mine, I just don't credit them with being seminal sci-fi works, the way the initial manga and movie are.
