Daemons is not cyberpunk, it's mostly fantasy and that's about all I can say about it until you've seen/read it. It's a good anime so far. I recommend it!
What I meant was I know daemon as a computer term, so it tends to get used in cyberpunk. It's an old term for, without looking it up (so I'm not sure if it's 100% accurate but it's my understanding), a program that runs in the background, like a service rather than a user-facing application.
Though, I wouldn't be surprised if the English word "demon" comes from the Old English "daemon" in much the same way that today's English (British) people say "encyclopaedia" or "paediatrician"; American English drops one of the two vowels and English keeps them, whereas once the letters were fused (I'm not sure what the term is).
Anyway, thanks for the recommendation.
Thanks for the background! I didn't know all the cyberpunk/computer context of the word. I was just using daemons as shorthand for the anime. The His Dark Materials series also has Daemons, but those are essentially animal representations of a piece of your soul.
