Midnight Eye: Gokuu is a two-part OVA series directed by the one and only Yoshiaki Kawajiri, who has also directed such classics like Ninja Scroll, Wicked City, Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, and Cyber City Oedo 808 to name a few. This anime follows a man named Gokuu Fuurinji a device that investigates the murders of his fellow officer colleagues and has been given the "eye of god" which allows him to hack into any computer which he then can control. Out of the cyberpunk anime Kawajiri has directed, Midnight Eye: Gokuu is probably my favorite. The art, the violence, and the weird shit that goes on in this anime is just incredible. Don't get me started on the OST, an amazing blend of synth, industrial, and a bit of hard rock sets such a great mood. If you're a fan of Kawajir's work, 90's anime, and cyberpunk, seeing Midnight Eye: Gokuu is a must.
