In Levius<\/a><\/em>, boxing meets steampunk; or to put it in anime terms, Megalobox<\/em> (or Tomorrow\u2019s Joe<\/em>) meets Fullmetal Alchmist<\/em> (or Violet Evergarden<\/em>). It\u2019s a series by the Polygon CG studio, which many readers will know for its space opera, Knights of Sidonia<\/em>. Like that series, Levius <\/em>was produced by Netflix and first screened on the platform. But it\u2019s a big change of scene from Sidonia<\/em>.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead of starfields and spaceships, the setting looks decidedly British. The hero\u2019s city has rows of terraced brick houses that could have come from the titles of Coronation Street<\/em>, or from the early scenes of Steamboy<\/em>, the exuberant anime movie by Katsuhiro Otomo. Our hero\u2019s called Levius, which doesn\u2019t sound like a common British name, but when his family <\/em>name is Cromwell, it balances out. We jump in with Levius in the ring, powered by both muscles and mechanics. One of his arms is a prosthetic, and both arms are augmented with metal gears. But it\u2019s no freakshow. His opponent is just the same, in this newly-established sport of \u201cmetal boxing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Much of the backstory gets explained in parts two and three. Levius\u2019 country has recently suffered a war, in which his father perished. Worse still, the war came to the city, catching up Levius, then a child, and his mother. That\u2019s when Levius lost his arm, incinerated by an enemy war-machine. His mother protected the boy, but was left in a seemingly permanent coma. Levius was taken in by his grandmother and his uncle Zacks \u2013 the latter a former boxer, gruff but with warmth beneath. He\u2019s voiced in Japanese by Junichi Sawabe, who took the title role in Space Dandy<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

It\u2019s Hugo who sees the boy\u2019s talent, and trains him up to be the rising star we see in part one. Why <\/em>Levius wants to fight is something even he can\u2019t articulate, though it\u2019s plainly bound up with his war trauma. More straightforward is Natalia, an impetuous girl fighter who was shocked to be beaten by Levius. Now she insists on sparring with him in his \u201cgym\u201d (a disused factory building), looking for an edge. Her pride contrasts with Levius\u2019 lack of ego \u2013 when Natalia does<\/em> best him in the ring, his response is to ask her enthusiastically to teach him. Natalia\u2019s Japanese actress is Ayane Sakura, who voices the similarly hotheaded Mika in the Psycho-Pass<\/em> franchise.<\/p>\n

It turns out \u201cmetal boxing\u201d isn\u2019t just about gears and robotics. In this world, a new miracle substance was discovered \u2013 a common plot device in SF alternate histories, as with the Icelandic water in Steamboy<\/em> that brings a new age of steam power. In Levius<\/em>, the secret is again found in water that can bind with blood and produce steam. In the show\u2019s world, this led to the production of human-machine cyborgs powered by<\/em> that steam. The water once caused the war which shattered Levius\u2019 life. Now it\u2019s led to a bread-and-circus sport for the masses, in a show where the boxing ring is <\/em>a Roman-style Colosseum, and where Levius is compelled by his demons to fight again and again.<\/p>\n
