[Photos/Images] Lonely "In the Air" Action Scene in "Is it Nausicaä?" Anime "LAZARUS" Episode 4 Where The Helicopter Is Brought Down Using a Drone 1st

In episode 4 of the anime "LAZARUS," which began airing on April 27, an intense air action scene has generated considerable buzz. In a thrilling development, Axel Gilberto (CV: Mamoru Miyano) falls from a helicopter, lands on a drone, and successfully takes down the aircraft. This sequence has triggered numerous reactions on social networks, with many comparing it to the animated film "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind."

In search of clues regarding Skinner (CV: Koichi Yamadera), Axel and his group infiltrate a dance club where Sam Stevenson (CV: Tomokazu Sugita) is expected to appear. Axel's team makes contact with Sam according to plan, but gunfire ensues, and they narrowly miss capturing Sam as he escapes in a helicopter.

Immediately after takeoff, Axel makes a reckless leap and grabs onto the skids of the helicopter. Surprised by Axel's bold move, Sam exclaims, "This guy... has watched too many action movies!" Meanwhile, his ally Christine (CV: Maaya Uchida) is exasperated, commenting, "He's... totally nuts..."

Even Axel's incredible stamina has limits; the strain of holding on with one arm against the wind is mounting. Additionally, the helicopter, piloted by AI, begins behaving erratically due to a glitch caused by Sam's sudden downward strike, creating a dangerous driving situation. Axel finds himself on the verge of falling at any moment.

At the last moment before colliding with a tower crane, Axel releases his grip and plummets. Sam celebrates prematurely, but Axel miraculously lands on a drone being piloted by Leland and others from the ground. Rising high again, Axel fires near the helicopter’s rotor and successfully takes it down.

This heart-pounding action scene has continued to grip the audience, with many noting a sense of familiarity with the drone's design. It appears that the drone Axel controlled resembled the Glider used by Nausicaä in "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind."
