Can someone please explain to me what the techno sub-genre is supposed to be?

It's Immersive Fantasy with added anime weirdness. It's Utena, Penguindrum, and that sort of thing. It's like urban fantasy, but you're also having confusing visions or weird waking dreams and you don't have to worry about whether they make sense or not.

I'm not very strong on anime. So it's urban fantasy with magical/surrealist metaphysics? In other words, would Norther Exposure or Twin Peaks be typical of Techno?

That's pretty awesome. I've been looking for something that could run Earthbound for ages, so I bought the pdf and realised that it'd be better for 90s weird/magical realist/supernatural shows. Especially the mystery ones. I've only just skimmed it though so it might still do Earthbound (as I was told it would). Are there any APs out there yet?
