Betterman English Sub & Dub

About Betterman

Betterman blends action, adventure and comedy by Sunrise (1999). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. What the story covers: A deadly virus known as "Algernon" has attacked humanity with vicious meaning. At the forefront of the fight is the mystifying Akamatsu Industries—disguised as a heavy machine factory in Tokyo, this undercover organization uses neural enhanced weapons known as NeuroNoids to battle Algernon.

More of the story: Also helping with their secret efforts is the enigmatic mutant who is only known as "Betterman."

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. If you count yourself among viewers who like fast, high-impact fights, put it on your list.

Production & Appeal

Animation is handled by Sunrise, so the studio's house style defines how Betterman looks and moves on screen. Within the action category, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 6.6/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. It aired in 1999, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
