I’ve read Count Zero, not Burning Chrome. I thought Count Zero was pretty close to ‘mancer, still I would give it to ‘mancer.
As far as manga from Japan, Akira is one of the best comics ever. That, Appleseed, and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, although it isn’t cyberpunkish at all, just awesome. All three blow the anime versions out of the water no contest, although Akira and Nausicaa are great anime as well.
As far as anime series with cyberpunk have you seen the Ghost in the Shell episodes?

I have them all on DVD and the script about memorized ;)
I am a hardcore GITS nut. THAT is a masterwork. The original movie, the SACs and Solid State Society, which is SO damn topical right now in Japan with the nutcase wanting people to just die, it’s not funny.
