Written by Vampire Weekend front man Ezra Koenig, NEO YOKIO is an American-Japanese anime series that takes place in an alternate New York City. After Magicians saved the city from demons in the 1800s, they rose in the social ranks. Today, Kaz Kaan (Jaden Smith), part of a new generation known as "Magistocrats," must balance his job as a demon hunter with his fashionista lifestyle. After his girlfriend (Alexa Chung) dumps him, Kaz wants to focus on hanging out with fellow socialites like Lexy (The Kid Mero) and Gottlieb (Desus Nice), remain the city's most eligible bachelor, and prove to his peers, especially his nemesis Arcangelo (Jason Schwartzman), that he is not simply "neo riche." But his uptight Aunt Agatha (Susan Sarandon) forces him to stay committed to his duties, which he tries to do with the assistance of his mecha butler Charles (Jude Law). Throughout it all, friend and fashion blogger Helena St. Tessera (Tavi Gevinson), who he saved from a possessed Chanel suit, offers her own perspective about what's important.
