A gent named Chris Kessler has recreated the original Blade Runner movie trailer with clips from classic anime series AD Police Files and Bubblegum Crisis, and I’ll be damned at how amazingly well it works out.

It should be no surprise that late-’80s, early-’90s cyberpunk anime like these two series were influenced immensely by Blade Runner, but still, this is uncanny. It almost makes me want an official anime adaptation! (But I’ll still pass on that sequel, Ridley. Thanks, though.)

H/t to John Straun of Kotaku’s Screengrab for the find!
