Welcome to Neo Yokio, the greatest city in the world. It's the most populous urban agglomeration in North America, but its prestige does not merely stem from its size. Neo Yokio is a diverse labyrinth of cultural and architectural innovation at the forefront of global fashion and finance. All of this is cold comfort to the lovesick Kaz Kaan (Jaden Smith), the youngest member of a family of: "magistocrats" - pink-haired demon slayers who once liberated the city. Today, his demon-slaying is barely more than a side-hustle coordinated by his Aunt Agatha (Susan Sarandon) - Kaz himself would rather concern himself with shopping, field hockey and - of course - mending his broken heart. Always by Kaz's side are his faithful mecha-butler, Charles (Jude Law), and his inseparable friends Lexy and Gottlieb (The Kid Mero and Desus Nice) as he navigates the complexities of life in Neo Yokio and tries to stay one step ahead of his arch-rival, Neo Yokio's number one most eligible bachelor, Arcangelo Corelli (Jason Schwartzman.) Things take a mysterious turn when Kaz is drawn into the turbulent world of ex-fashion blogger Helena St. Tessero (Tavi Gevinson), setting in motion a sequence of events that force him to question everything he knows about Neo Yokio. —Official site

Love it or hate it, I really enjoyed the campy style
I really enjoyed the campy-Zoolander-style of this show. If you're in the mood for a funny lighthearted show that doesn't take itself too seriously this is a great watch. It has been called pretentious, but the pretentiousness (or lack of true pretentiousness) is the reason it is funny. It doesn't take itself seriously. It knows its characters are ridiculous and that's part of the fun. If you love and prefer violent horror anime like Ajin you're probably not going to like it. A lot of anime lovers complained about it, but I found it refreshingly funny compared to the overly serious and excessively violent anime that I have seen lately. If you liked Zoolander you will probably like this show. I had to give it an 8 out of 10 since the actual animation is not that great, but in a way, the animation reflects its lack of seriousness. I watched it for the comedy and the story. It's not perfect, but it is good. It's something new and original and it made me smile. If you want it to be serious you're missing the fun.
