It’s one of the most well constructed police procedural shows in anime.
>>282960116Shame about the last 10 years of productions, including the hollywood movie.
I just want to fuck motoko
>>282961533gits: the new movie was goodarise was alright
>>282961774too bad
>>282961824OP here, was arise any good? never seen it
>>282960116It's one of the best shows in general imo
>>282961895Everyone told me it was shit so I went in with really low expectations and thought it was fine. It does some things really well and other parts suck.
>>282962112So it's not as good as SAC. I see I might check it out tomorrow after work
hiiiii
>>282961895the main thing is that since it's a prequel exploring how motoko got recruited for section 9, she's not cool yet. she's brash, angry, and hot headed. that put a lot of people off who just wanted more SAC
>>282960116I would appreciate it more if it weren't for the bullshit story in 2nd GIG. The prime minister was hot, though.
>>282962235>prequelIsn't it technically an alternate timeline?
>>282962331>The prime minister was hot, though.I’m still amazed at how nothing she was.
>>282962332GITS: The New Movie is a direct continuation of Arise, and after its main plot has been resolved it ends right where the 1995 movie begins with the stealth assassination. I'm sure there's some continuity snarls but the intent was for it to be a direct prequel and origin story
I hope the 2026 series will be as enjoyable as SAC.
>>282960116This particular anime starts to get me very emotive and introspective about all this damn time i've spent on here... half a decade shitposting anime you almost get extremely nostalgic when people bring certain series up. It's like the same feeling you get when Linkin Park comes on
I just want a psychedelic Man-Machine Interface adaption

>>2829623312nd GIG was good. I wish there were more episodes like this. The overall story was decent but unremarkable
>>282964999every possible melody was already discovered by antediluvian throat singers long before homo evolved spoken language
I had this show running in the background on Toonami like a hundred times and started to get weird headcanons.Kusanagi and Kuze are the same person. Each of them is half the brain of the kid that survived the disaster. The tech wasn't developed enough to turn a complete human brain into a cyberbrain yet, they had to map how the brain would reconstruct its other half.
>>282961895From what I remember I thought the narration was a bad especially the first story.
>>282966547that'd be a pretty interesting twist. especially with the recurring doubt in GITS about if Kusanagi was even born a woman or not, which even she isn't 100% certain of
>>282962213Everyone Loves Batou
Makoto "Queen of Cock and Ball Torture" Kusanagi
>>282968810I think it goes something like "female gorilla".
This is what could have been if Makoto hadnt been a slutBtw do they have artificial wombs in gits so that full cyborgs can get pregnant?
>>282968926Batou being in love with the Major was an invention of the '95 movie that all subsequent adaptations (Dunno about the ScarJo movie since I still refuse to watch it) like to latch onto as wellManga Batou was a chad who could get any pussy he wanted
>>282962514Shame that the best version of Motoko, the calm 1995 variant, is rather different to the original source material Major that they'll probably use in the new adaptation.
>>282969161Nah Mangatoko is better than the depressed weirdo MotokoMangatoko actually uses being a cyborg as a flex on other people
>>282968926prude
>>282969161Remember that panel where Motoko covets a briefcase full of money seized from a bust, and the old man has to swat her hand away?
I feel like we don't talk enough about the fact that implanted telecomms have been normalized. Like, your PC is in your brain, and it's also your phone, and video chat is something you see in your actual vision. Cool, but weird as hell.
>>282969536So Manga Motoko is a crooked cop?
>>282970210It's just a gag. She is otherwise morally upright.
>>282962506Technically it leads into the manga since they have identical openings and TNM actually shows the beginning of the next chapter afterwards.
The first season of SAC is one of those things that I come back to regularly. The whole Laughing Man plot kind of flew over my head when I was younger and I didn't really appreciate it until I'd really been out into the world. It's an excellent plotline.
>>282970210She does drugs and engages in lots of sex and orgies The upside? You can fuck her without contracting an STD
>>282968926Reminder that Makoto fucked Section 6 Chief Nakamura in Solid State Society but still refuses Batou
>>282970898batou only wants to fuck her if she's wearing a male chassis and she ain't down for that
>>282970307It called a lot about how a certain kind of internet phenomena would end up. In a terrorism studies unit I took a few years ago we talked about the notion of 'the medium is the message' in the context of political violence, and the idea that it really isn't the person carrying out that act that actually gets to decide what the message sent by it is, that's really determined by the audience. All things that should be sounding pretty familiar with The Laughing Man.Something I also love about both seasons is how these very sci-fi starting points end up coming back to some pretty mundane, real world motivations under it all. A lot has changed, but people haven't.
>>282960116STOP TEMPTING ME WITH THESE BREASTS, I AM NOW TOUCHING THEM! OH YES! ITS YOUR FAULT FOR WEARING THAT LEOTARD WITH THAT CLEAVAGE ON THESE BIG BOOBS EVERYDAYS! I CANNOT STOP THINKING ABOUT THESE BREASTS! I HAVE TO SQUISH MY DICK BETWEEN THEM!!
>>282971254take your meds, shitposter
>>282971254true and based, Makoto owes everyone cyborg paizuri when she dresses to advertise her tits like this
>>282965327I got annoyed at the constant "all according to plan" shit from the ugly dude and some of the character episodes weren't as good as the first season which had the advantage of being mostly about the concept of cyberization.Although I'm glad they kept the part from the manga where section 9 just offs a guy for screwing with them.
>>282971254Cringe.
I want your best Majors!
>>282971573well you can't have them
>>282971573The best I can do is my worst.
>>282971549that guy was a shit cop. Especially for a swat equivalent. What a buffoon
>>282971549we can't let this smug slut get away with it, she's not wearing anything under that flasher coat
>>282971213There's also the very first line from the Major which I never realized was actually a spoiler until years after the fact. "Straighten up your own act first. Or, if that's too hard, close your eyes, cover your ears, and go live in a cave". Which is precisely what the Laughing Man did.
>>282971264>>282971303>>282971549The Paizuri must go on.
>>282971894Gross. Her original body is best.
>>282971928that's the best part about being able to swap out bodies. A different frame for every desire
>>282971573
>>282961774Should have said so.
>>282973075That shota is gay
>>282973075you think the major would have let him hit if he said yes?
>>282973549She wouldn't have offered him the chance to hit it if she didn't mean it. Major is always 100% serious about what she says in SAC even when it seems like she's making a joke or teasing people
>>282960116The appeal of a police procedural requires some amount of empathizing with the cops though, and when the overall society depicted is just cyberpunk corporate dystopia and the cops are all just zogbots, at least for me most of the appeal is lost.
>>282970210She's more like a mercenary that enjoys the power to police society on the side of getting rich.
>>282962568It would be way easier to understand as an anime. But that would also require the director to comprehend what the hell he was reading first, before he could direct it. >>282969144Manga Batou got catfished by an old man.
>>282973998>catfished by an old manWe all make mistakes sometimes
>>282973998I got catfished by a fat guy once and he was married
Are you guy's sure you can handle her?
>>282962331>>282965327>2nd gig slanderFuck no you're crazy. 2nd Gig is far more involved with the world of GiTS than the first ever was, and as a result has the ability to construct interesting scenarios regarding the technology introduced in the first season. I'm not purporting that the first season sucks or anything, just that 2nd Gig is most certainly not worse, it's better. Gohda is far more interesting than the Laughing Man.
>>282975163>136kgthat's not that heavy. Two of my exes were around that range
>>282975336I think the best parts of 2nd Gig were Major's interactions with Kuze and the glimpse into her past, a very subdued, subtle, and sad romance that perfectly fits the Major's personality. It's the first time SAC really digs into who the Major is, too bad it ends in tragedy. The actual conspiracy parts of 2nd Gig were kinda meh. Oh and the spidertanks stole the show again in the finale
>>282975336I agree but>Gohda is more interesting than warauotokoHAS to be bait. I've always felt like Gohda is just building on what laughing man already set up, and is thus just derivative
>>282975336>>282975529>Gohda derivative of Laughing Man>2nd gig glowniggery uninterestingA regrettable simplification of a complex character and plotline 2bhwyfamalam. Gohda worked his ass off to produce the nuclear radiation scrubbers that brought Japan back from the brink, only to be dissatisfied with Japan's place in the grand scheme of the world, what with agreeing to take on various asian refugees bogging down its economy. Gohda is also dissatisfied with the current state of the social aspect of Japan despite their (our) advancements with technology; What it means to truly be an individual in a world that allows you to sync your mind with the web and with other individuals in the name of consumption. They're all searching for something bigger than themselves, but aren't finding it. Initially Gohda wanted to be like revolutionary heroes the essayist Patrick Sylvester wrote about, but very soon lost that delusion and started to seek to reform the state of Japan to its former glory from behind the scenes by crafting a political climate that would eventually birth a revolutionary hero of its own in Hideo Kuze.that's just my own simplification anyway.What I like the most from 2nd GIG is how brutally honest they are with its political conspiracy. I think it was amazing how there was simply no way Kuze could have won. He's doomed from the start.
imo I like Laughing man better as a villain (was he even a villain?) and I liked indiv 11 better as a plotline. If anything it feels like 1st gig's whole thing about standalone complexes is the whole setup for everything in second gig
>>282975519that's fucking disgusting.
>>282975802>imo I like Laughing man better as a villain (was he even a villain?)Yeah Laughing Man isn't really a villain. Just a dude who tried to inspire some change and then fucked off to his NEET cave. The real villain was all the assholes who tried to take advantage of the Stand Alone Complex phenomenon to advance their own agendas
>>282975519t.Tyrone the BBW plapper
>>282961533i enjoyed SAC2045curious to see how much they're going to keep releasing as the technologies depicted in the works pop up in the real world
>>282975802Laughing Man wasn't a villain. Sure, he was an antagonist, but he was ultimately the hero of SAC. Much in the same way that while Kuze is clearly an antagonist of 2nd GiG, he too is the hero of the over arching refugee story. Consider: The traditional Cyberpunk story is that of a rebel or revolutionary fighting against super corporations and corruption. Which is exactly what the Laughing Man was doing. We simply see the story though the eyes of a non traditional cyberpunk protagonist, the secret police, or rather, the very people that would be hunting the hero in a cyberpunk story. In a way, from a traditional point of view, Section 9 themselves are villains: a group of mostly former military hunter killers with little to no oversight or accountability. secret police. In any other story, they would be the bad guys.So I would argue that SAC is a case of not hero vs villain, but rather a case of villain-protagonists hunting hero-antagonists. 2nd GiG blurs the formula a bit more by introducing a clear and present villain in the form of Goda for both the hero and the protagonist to fight against. Whereas SAC was more of the hero fighting the villain, and the protagonists merely being caught up in it. But 2nd GiG also comments on the whole situation through Batous comments regarding thier situation and collusion with Gouda: as a group, Section 9 is keenly aware of what they are. It's a self awareness that acts as a commentary on not only thier position, but the necessity of such organisations.
>>282975864I know what I'm about
>>282975529I think the better part, which is why I didn't like it as much, was how easy Gohda was fucking with section 9 in making them do dirty work and abusing their lack of manpower amd how desperate the ending got.>>282975802I like the laughing man plot more because it's more cyberpunk with corporate greed/conspiracy and also because it isn't properly solved. The guy who killed Nanow isn't caught, Serano either dies or is wiped st the end too. They get the politicians but the suits crawl away.
rewatching 2nd gig now and it being about refugees and pro/anti-refugee terrorism feels a bit....current
>>282976510incredible isn't it? they've called so much 20 years ago
>>282976510think that's current, give Lain a rewatch what with all the botnet retardation we have to deal with these days
>>282976510Shit like that has been an issue for a hundred years and will be for a hundred plus more. Even the fist movie is still talking about colonial exploitation
>>282962235>she's brash, angry, and hot headedNever read the manga? Compared to SAC everyone in the original GITS manga is at everyone else's throats.
>>282968447for whatever reason the episode about Batou doing his gym work and having a weightlifting/fitness star he respects was interesting to me. Even with his cyborg body Batou finds some value in the regular performance of physical activity and a routine. He's far more in touch with his humanity than his membership of a cyborg glowie group would suggest. Professional sports and athletic competitions must be whack as fuck in GITS world.I may be mangling the correct interpretation of this and I forget just how cyborg'd up Batou is, not as much as the major surely but I don't remember.Anyway what I'm saying is I want Batou to spot me in the gym.
>>282976510Cyberpunk touches on the consequences of capitalism by nature.
>>282976845finish reading a post before replying to it
I don't like the premise of SAC - i.e. a Mary Sue surrounded by a harem of ugly simps. There is a way to write your waifu power fantasy that doesn't elicit second-hand embarrassment in the audience, but you need self-awareness first and foremost to achieve that.

>>282977985I just find SAC Motoko to be an incredibly bland character who can't carry the show. The whole cast is kinda one-dimensional.
>>282978708I don't see that point being refuted here, women are drawn to burly men like pigs to slop
>>282979720that's not what their tastes in porn, musicians, and actors says
>>282979765You've never spoken to chicks who like DILFs/Older Men, which Batou fills the quota of on the latter since I think he's in his late 30s or something
>>282979276interesting concept which would look really nice with today's technology
>>282979720Cope harder.
SAC season 1 had so many great episodes. 9 and 11 are by far my favorites.
Male, female, young old, Japanese, White, it don't matter to Motoko Kusanagi. The only choice she gives you is the easy way or the hard way
>>282979519That's what you get when you make a show following generic villains and have the actual protagonist masquerade as a villain.
>>282980609Come to think of it Psycho-Pass has the exact same problem (which is why the first season is great up until the very end and everything that follows complete and utter trash).
I wonder how many will actively remain ignorant of how Mangatoko behaves and comtinue to bitch once the new show comes out?
>>282980961
>>282964999>How does she do it?simplethose artists suck and she made it betteri listened to all the tracks she ripped off, her versions are just better.
>>282962213Why was he so much less fun in 2nd Gig?
>>282980961Grifters gotta Grift somehow, question is which grifter shows their ignorance first
>>282980767Sequels to Psycho Pass are not even written by Urobuchi - no wonder they suck.
>>282981878The original Psycho-Pass wasn't exactly masterful writing to begin with. It feels like half a story, rather than a proper breakdown and analysis of the cyberpunk future where you die for showing too many signs of being a criminal and real criminals get off scot-free because they don't show any signs of being criminals. Akane discovers the whole system is a complete sham run by the very same kind of 'special' criminals that they're hunting down, and then does nothing with this information.
>>282982098What is she going to do? Even though she's also "special", she is the text book definition of an obedient drone. The quintessential Japanese protagonist.
>>282982186I don't mind that Akane ended up siding with the corrupt system, my issue is that we don't get her actual take on it in S1. There's no discussion of the revelation she discovered, no bitter rumination on the fact that society is a sham and her job is just killing people for the pleasure of a bunch of brains in jars. She just kinda rolls with it with no second thoughts or introspection. That's what feels like it's missing from season 1
>>282980961why are you imagining situations to be mad about
>>282982303>She just kinda rolls with it with no second thoughts or introspection.>muh MC must be relatable!She's the perfect product of the system that created her. Why be upset when you and the protag of the anime you watch have dissonant values? I guess you can only watch media where you can self-insert into the MC.
>>282982451Why are you even talking to me anymore if you're not going to read my posts? It has nothing to do with relatability and everything to do with needing an actual ending. You see, stories need endings. S1's finale is an anti-ending, it deliberately leaves everything open for sequel seasons because that's what Urobuchi was paid to create. And that's why S1 falls off at the very end.
They should try to adapt man machine interface lol.
>>282973075
>>282982368I think you misunderstand me friend, I'm not looking to be angered by it, I'm going to find it incredibly funny
>>282981876I'm hoping for Andypants to bitch about how "The writers made her into a Redditor" or something, that's gonna be funny as fuck
>>282982303I mean on the face of it, that would be fine as a setup for the next season. Of course then you actually watch the second season and realize its totally unrelated to the first season, and not in an intended True Detective-esque fashion but simply what the fuck is this shit.

Akane says that someday, someone might stand in that room where she is now and do something. In saying this, Akane willfully misses the point that she's in that room now and can do something. That's the same mistake Makishima's bomb-planting minion made too, and he was the best person to actually do anything who's shown in the story. People punted the solution away to other people -- people they didn't even know in a society full of drones who were moronic pussies and thus couldn't be relied on.Akane didn't pussy out because of some incidental status quo, the entire point is that she pussied out and it's also a condemnation of her society. In Season 2 and the movie, Akane at least kind of tries to bait Sibyl into making a world that doesn't suck as much ass, but she's rather realistic about Sibyl being unlikely to do so, whether it takes the bait or not.
>>282984744>Akane says that someday, someone might stand in that room where she is now and do something. In saying this, Akane willfully misses the point that she's in that room now and can do something.Yep, but /a/ of today no longer has the mental capacity of /a/ in 2013.

Did you really think that was a convincing argument when you typed it?>>282984744>The whole point of the ending of Akane's arc is the tragedy that she is a drone. It's honestly astonishing to me that people with this low level of critical comprehension can pretend like they're geniuses. At no point in Psycho Pass S1 does Akane act like a drone. She's the one person in the entire show who is thinking for herself, solving the case when her comrades fall into predictable patterns of thought that get them killed or cause them to fall off Makishima's trail. Even Kogami falls into the role of the maverick hunting hound that he was given, ironically doing everything that Sibyl wants him to do, everything Makishima wants him to do. Akane isn't killed by Sibyl the way Kagari was when he found out because Sibyl can tell Akane is much more than she seems, she's not going to flip on the System because she has two brain cells to rub together and can see it's better than any other current alternative. >Akane didn't pussy out because of some incidental status quoLike I said, the problem with the ending isn't her siding with Sibyl, it's that it isn't an ending. It's not an ending to Akane's arc, nor Kogami's, nor Sibyl, it's not an ending of character arcs nor of plot because of all the unresolved plot threads left on the floor for someone else to pick up for season 2.

>>282988237>She's a utilitarian who cares more about social order than abstract justice. The system knows this and explains that's why she was told its secret. What do you want, an episode long soliloquy interspersed with shonen screaming?I would accept literally anything. Anything at all other than the rushed, brief scene we got of her telling Sybil she's not going to rock the boat. This was the pivotal reveal of the entire season, and it's rushed through because the show is out of screentime, weakening the gravitas and her reaction as well. >>282988237Do you have a single argument that doesn't devolve into strawmen? This is getting hilariously pathetic
>>282988311"Actually it's not an ending, it's an anti-ending" isn't a meaningful claim. You've said nothing substantial, just that you didn't like it.

>>282960116>It’s one of the most well constructed police procedural shows ever
>>282990940>ywn be Batou's kouhaithat black guy in 3rd Gig was a waste of a characterwhat the fuck were they thinking
I miss when anime had a cast of adults
>>282964999>>282981648when you're pressed to create things which you don't really care about, some people tend to plagiarise so they can quickly pump them outhere, the big fish eats the little one. my favorite track "cyberbird" is the result of a straight up copy, oh i'm sorry, sampling of "battersea"
>>282992465>3rd Gigrather insulting to even consider the 2045 abomination a continuation of 2nd gig>but its a sequeldont care, its dogshit
>>282992441Soße bitte
>>282992498I wonder if the trend towards school age garbage is anime specific. Maybe japan is generally giving up on interesting things happening to anyone over 20.
>>282975960sac 2045 starts so fucking bad, and then becomes really fucking good. i'm almost halfway through season 2, and i can't stop watching.
>>282962213>>282968447i think he broke...
>>282976510Except the refugees in the show are actual refugees not just migrants looking for the easiest bennies and highly tolerant police
>>282991957This single episode née this single scene got me into dominant women.

>>282993502my girlfriend laughed when we watched sac together. it all just clicked for her.
>>282987432>At no point in Psycho Pass S1 does Akane act like a droneHoly shit, you haven't even watched the show or you have dementia.
>>282989813Stop spamming your AI crap here.
>>282986857...Is a SLUT!
>>282992498Wasn't that long ago. >>282993362Nah, we get more and more 'adult cast' anime as 'salaryman reincarnated into x' isekai.
>>282994543>the only way something good can happen to a japanese adult is if they diestill counts
>>282960116>>282973834>Police Procedural >"a television series, film, or novel in which the emphasis is on the procedures used by the police in solving the crime."This is a new word for me. Patlabor and Hyper Police would be other examples of "Police Procedurals" right? Would Gunsmith Cats be one?

>>282990940I want to bang Motoko
I got filtered by season 2 and couldnt understand the plot.
>>282994684some parts of golgo centers around police from the countries golgo goes to and they try to stop him before he kills his target, and they usually fail
>>282995500For real? The absolute state of /a/.
I just finished season 2, and I'm a little disappointed at how many things it tried to juggle at the end just for most of them to kind of fizzle out, like it got wrapped up way too quickly. I watched the 1995 movie and liked it a lot, do I watch the sequel and stop there? Also SAC has a god tier soundtrack
>>282994684>rally vincet is canonically half indianMy headcanon is that rally vincent would look like a 90's version of Naomi scott, it'd be cool to a see a 90's bounty hunter show with this cutie.
>>282995976if you're talking about sac s2, they solve their immediate problems and uncovers the conspiracies but the american empire gets away with it in the long run
>>282990940Same
Motoko...
>>282997663Cut!Uhh...yeah, that was great Batou, but I'd like a little more emotion from you next take. Remember, the Major just got shot in the head and her lifeless android body is tumbling down some flight stairs...
>>282962213Is this vore?
>>282987432Anon, the entire point of Akane is the tragedy that she is a drone. The elements of her that can initially seem to inspire hope ultimately do not overcome how thoroughly she is a drone, and that was the entire build-up and message to her first encounter with Makishima, along with her subsequent decisions throughout the series. Perhaps Tougami and Makishima were the only people who weren't drones, but of them, Tougami was still lacking crucial info and Makishima was a bad-faith douchebag who wanted to hurt the world on a whim and see if there was any in-group that was a better fit for him but left him out.
>>282998346*Kougami, not Tougami. Mentioning this here instead of deleting and reuploading the post with the correction.
>>282998032That'd be a fun omake like that Black Lagoon one where the story is actually a TV show
>>282963783>I CAN'T BE COOOOOOOOoooooooool...>I CAN'T BE COOoOOOoooOOooooool...
>>282962213>Major gets domed with 50 cal right in front of him>Cradles her dead body and screams>He goes back to Section 9>"Lol it wasn't her faggot">Everyone laughs at himWhat a bunch of assholes.
>>282960116It was so boring that I dropped it at episode 10 and I'm a huge cyberpunk fan
Blowjob or Handjob, which would be more preferable to receive from Motoko?
>>283000065Either or, but I'll take the latter so I can hear her talk dirty
>>282999971>I'm a huge cyberpunk fanYeah brainlets like you cant into actual proper sci fi, it is well known.
>>282999971Cyberpunk is the Shonen equivalent of futuristic shows like these. You're not meant to think unlike with GiTS lol.
>>283000065a paycheck
>>283001350I meant the cyberpunk genre
>>283001454Well then you need to watch more thought provoking shows. Or take rittalin or something. Or just give up on them. Not everyone likes everything.
>>282999971You haven't even read Mona Lisa Overdrive or Schismatrix
What the hell was she thinking?
>>283001920Wonder how easy is it to switch bodies. Do you need a whole facility, or can you just have like, a fridge that swaps your brain to a new one.
>>283001964Switching bodies is a significant process that requires a doctor and a witness. You see part of it in season 1.She is remote controlling one of her old bodies in that scene.
>>283002007>Switching bodies is a significant process that requires a doctor and a witnessFor non-glowies*
>>283001920She knows.
>>282960116i've never seen it because i didn't like the gits movie but it's a kinda weird show because it's considered "mid" by westerners (like it hovers around 8/10 on mal/imdb) but chinks (and somewhat japs) consider it the best anime ever made (according to bangumi)now i don't trust chinks because they also have cowboy bebop among the top 3, but i trust westoids less because of frieren being #1 everywheretl;dr: how does it compare to let's logh? obviously not in terms of genre but in terms of target demographic
I just realized Stand Alone and Complex can also refer to the episode formats. Some are just stand alone while others are part of the overall complex storyline.
so since Yoko Kanno is a thieving fraud, who actually wrote the score for GITS?
>>283002550>but in terms of target demographicLOGH (adult women who were into 70s&80s shoujo and old-school space opera) and SAC (adult men who were into futurism and gritty cop films) don't share a target demographic, not in the slightest.
>>283002759>LOGH (adult women who were into 70s&80s shoujo and old-school space opera)either haven't seen logh or got filtered. please tell me you love cowboy bebop so i can remove sac from my backlog
>>283002678?
Did nothing wrong.
>>283003028Kinda hilarious that the entire story would've never happened had he just gotten laid.
>>282975551I found Gouda quite interesting. Him trying to artificially manufacture a stand alone complex was a cool concept
>>283003126He just tried to force a meme
>>283003028you'll never convince me Kojima wasn't referencing our boy Kazundo with Skull Face
>>283002808No surprise that only a newfag who has no clue about anime would bring up Cowboy Bebop again and again. Why the hell do you think the remake of LOGH would employ the chara designer for Kuroko no Basuke, retard?
okay but seriously what kind of fucking name is 一人?gouda's parents set him up for failure, ain't nobody reading that as kazundo
>>283003568i bring up cowboy bebop because chinks heavily overrate it, and i want to know if the same is true for sac
>>283003664I go to an anime club at my local university, and we have a bunch of Chinese people there. Literally all of them love GiTS and SAC, and have it on their top 5 at the very least.
>>283003568>the remake of LOGHi was talking about og logh tho, i don't care who the target of the demake is
>>283003664>shitting on Chinese giving 9 stars to Cowboy Bebop instead of bashing them for over-rating Clannad Embarrassing.
>>283003846i haven't seen clannad
>>283003028his skin is botched so he did something wrong there.
>>282981800Section 9 is really on the back foot for 2nd Gig and things are generally more tense and dangerous for them, it makes sense that he'd be more serious.
>>282979519I didn't mind Motoko in SAC but when you go from the original movie to SAC the difference is very noticable and a little disappointing, I loved how introspective she was originally and I wish they had given her more introspective moments in SAC.
>>282985395>>282985516Interesting, I hope they don't do something gay like make it a 3DCG shit show or go with some zoomer tiktok character design.
>>282988237>What do you want, an episode long soliloquy interspersed with shonen screaming?NTA but I would like that.
>>282985516I don't think it's gonna be a straight adaptation because they've Toh EnJoe writing it and they wouldn't bring him on for just a straight adaptation. It'll definitely be the most faithful to the manga's aesthetics of all the adaptations but it'll probably be like SAC and the movie where aspects of the manga are taken but used to tell its own thing.
>>283004245This is the art style they seem to be going with
>>283003125Most of history's most impactful men were either virgins or city-state scale rapists. Healthy sex lives are the bane of all ambition.
>>283004345kino artstyle. might become the first good gits anime
>>283004345Very interesting. I can't really say whether I think this art style will be good or bad until I get to watch an episode or 2 and get a feel for what they're going for though. It's unique and as a still image I like it.
>>283003028literal dickheadhis end was pretty fun>those guys are bluffing, let's just go>yeah you're right>elevator door opens>is THIS a bluff>BLAMBLAMBLAM
