Set in the late 21st century, Megalo Box is a perfect mixture of science fiction and boxing stories. The story of Megalo Box follows a young boxer named Junk Dog, a young underground fighter who takes part in the Megalo Boxing Tournament in Megalonia. The story is set in this dystopian world where people with citizenship live in a metropolis called ‘The Administrative Area.’ Just as a boxing story is extremely great, a lot of the dystopian elements in the story are used pretty well. There are two seasons of the anime that you can watch on Netflix.
