- The Archivist as Edgerunner: The individuals who digitize, encode, and upload high-bitrate versions of the anime to the Internet Archive or torrent networks act much like the Edgerunners in the show. They are "runners" navigating a hostile digital infrastructure (ISP monitoring, copyright takedowns) to extract data and secure it in a safe haven. They are creating a "backup" of culture, ensuring that even if Netflix (a real-world analogue to a megacorporation) loses the license or edits the content, the original artifact remains accessible.
