Take your first-look at LARA CROFT from the upcoming Netflix Series TOMB RAIDER: THE LEGEND OF LARA CROFT. Coming 2024, only on Netflix.

 

[Beer Baelly]

Netflix take my money!

 

[Fake]

Where is giraffe Lara?

 

[pqueue]

please tell me this is the version without that annoying and overrated Phoebe-Waller Bridge attached to it

 

[Saber]

Not a fan of the art that looks from the same borish League of Justice recent animations. Only time will tell if this gonna end up interesting.

 

[violence]

My hero.

Cd project red opened a brand new studio after the anime sells boost. Square may wish they never sold off the IP?

 

[SnapShot]

where boobs

 

[Esppiral]

The art style is.... well.... not my cup of tea....

 

[Forsythia]

So in this she turns from whiny Lara to actual Tomb Raider Lara which we were promised at the end of the reboot?

 

[Shadowstar39]

Why does she look like Rambo? Seriously who did this art it sucks. She looks like an old Italian or Greek woman with a scowl. She doesn't look right at all, skin is wrong, chest (from what we can see) not right, all out of sync. I also don't ever remember her looking mean. Is this a "powerful woman roar -muh feminism" production?

 

[TheUndeadGamer]

I wonder if this gives us a clue for the direction of the next Tomb Raider.
I look forward to watching this series. Hope it’s fun.

 

[kunonabi]

They're wasting Atwell on this shitty version of Lara? Sounds like the Netflix thing to do. She would have been so perfect as the older, classic Lara.

 

[Deerock71]

where boobs

 

[Thirty7ven]

This version of Tomb Raider sucks ass, from the bow to her companion, the world they created, it’s just bad and B level.

 

[JayK47]

Looks like hot Netflix garbage. Was hoping it would take after the older games and movies, not the modern bland flat reboots.

 

[ShirAhava]

Is this really too much to ask for?

 

[mortal]

Netflix are just churning these things out.

 

[John Bilbo]

Looks way too serious

The reboots are better than this. At least in those Lara still looks like a Brit and not some greek/Italian lady with thick lips and dark complexion. She was feminine in the reboots. Sure not big bust but she was younger. Some people didn't like that as she was making noises and wasn't such a bad ass, but I thought it was ok.

This just looks like what if lara was a bad ass girl boss who don't take no shit and is mean. They transposed stalone with the bow to her. At least that is what I get from this short clip.
Maybe I'm wrong and we will be surprised, but seeing as how netfilx is with the bait and switch (see killing of he-man) and current day propaganda, yeah i have little faith here.

Anime made in California.

 

[Fbh]

I like the gameplay but hate the plot and characters of the new Tomb Raider.
So a show that's just the plot and characters sounds terrible.

My hero.

Cd project red opened a brand new studio after the anime sells boost. Square may wish they never sold off the IP.

Eh, doubt it.
Edge Runner (Arcane also) worked because it was pretty good beyond just the IP.

This looks like one of these filler Netflix shows like Dragons Dogma and Tekken.

 

[Honey Bunny]

More trash

 

[Svejk]

Pass

Also I dunno about you, but she looks kinda old somehow? Probably intentional judging the name of the series.

 

[brian0057]

Once again, Phil Bourassa's influence over animation has tainted another show.
Can some get Genndy Tartakovsky or Bruce Timm instead? I'm sick and tired of his style, even if it's just someone inspired by it.

It also doesn't help that it's nu Lara instead of the classic. Crystal Dynamics has a lot to answer for.

I agree, Indiana Jones Lara > Rambo Lara. (At least for this.)

[nowhat]

I think we need another thread - which popular game franchise is not getting a Netflix anime adaptation?

 

[Kilau]

I wonder what her girlfriend's name will be.

 

[onnextflix5]

can’t wait for more woke tomb raider, let me guess she is bi now, uses they them pronouns,

 

[X-Wing]

This is not anime.

 

[Magic Carpet]

I wonder what her girlfriend's name will be.

With any luck Lara will be completely available so that I can self insert myself inserting myself.

 

[Mister Wolf]

I'm not a fan of this incarnation of Croft.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

where boobs

You too eh?

 

[Arsic]

Looks shit. Maybe the Hentai community can save it.

 

[Whitecrow]

I probably will give it a try but god, does it look awful...

 

[newtypepilot]

the reason she doesn't have huge jugs is because she was once Larry and is now in transition. But if you don't like her, you're a bigot!!

 

[SaintALia]

Ah, was slightly excited for a bit, then I just figured, "oh God, they're probably gonna use that bog standard Western anime style aren't they?" And yup, they sure did. Maybe the story will be good, but eh, I never really played Tomb Raider games for story, but who knows.

 

[Shadowstar39]

Oh wow, i guess i missed that, is this some old lara thing. Still she doesn't look right, but I guess if she is supposed to be old then it could make some sense.

 

[Madflavor]

Ok so they’re basing it off the worst version of Lara. The TR2013 version of Lara is a black hole of charisma and charm.

 

[MagiusNecros]

Would love to get a Lara Croft back that has twin Pistols and not a Bow/Pickaxe. How sad they are doubling down on Insecure Croft.

 

[GreenAlien]

That woman looks completely unlikable.

 

[Nankatsu]

Don't know about this one to be honest.

 

[Kagoshima_Luke]

I mean, it's Netflix so it's gonna be trash, but her design looks fine.

 

[ShirAhava]

edit. wrong thread

 

[ShaikhCroft]

Really wish it was the OG Lara.

 

[delfrickintree]

Netflix didnt make her black?

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

This is not a anime... Is more like the cartoon of 2000. Style.

Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft Anime Coming in 2024

*Enters thread, expecting to see actual Japanese anime Lara Croft with big fucking anime tits*

That's western animation... not anime.
