Synposis>Deep into the twenty-first century, the line between man and machine has been inexorably blurred as humans rely on the enhancement of mechanical implants and robots are upgraded with human tissue. In this rapidly converging landscape, cyborg superagent Major Motoko Kusanagi is charged to track down the craftiest and most dangerous terrorists and cybercriminals, including “ghost hackers” who are capable of exploiting the human/machine interface and reprogramming humans to become puppets to carry out the hackers’ criminal ends. When Major Kusanagi tracks the cybertrail of one such master hacker, the Puppeteer, her quest leads her into a world beyond information and technology where the very nature of consciousness and the human soul are turned upside down.
>>287052830Too colorful and cartoony. Is this GITS for toddlers?
>>287052853Knew it wasnt gonna be a straight manga adaptation. Looks great though
MANGA MOTOKO. LOOKS SO GOODthank fucking god, didnt care for arise/2045
>>287052935
Looks fantastic
>>287052830I'm excited
>>287052939People shouldn't have assumed so. Having Toh EnJoe as writer made that obvious enough. This will be the closest in tone and atmosphere to the manga but probably just like the movie and SAC will use pieces of the manga to tell its own story.
>>287053101This image disgusts meGuards, take him to the stocks
they really will have mouths, uh?
>>287052935old good new bad?
>>287053288What are we gonna do in the stocks, onii-chan?
>>287053349They managed to make them even more moe
>>287053101This image arouses meGuards, take her to my bedroom
She looks like a Dan Da Dan character here... I guess that happens when it's the same studio
>>287053101im going to vomit
>>287053349I'm guessing it's more non-diagetic for comedic moments
>>287052830is this a 1:1 adaptation of the manga or is there new stuff here?
>>287053349It's an OLED screen, not a functional orifice.
>>287052935Pls kys
>>287053101im going to cum
>>287052830Animation aesthetic is good, let's see if they handle the stories well.
>>287052935read the manga
>>287052830will they tone down the sex appeal?
>>287053876Read the thread: >>287053349
>>287052830Looks like awful modern garbage.
I dunno, I don't think like this art style they chose works that well.Sure, it's similar to the manga, but it's not like in the manga the characters were always Super Deformed... there's plenty of panels were they had realistic proportions.Motoko especially just looks off. She doesn't look at all like she did in the manga, now she just looks like Ramona Flowers with a gun. And she's weirdly short and stumpy.I'll certainly give the show a chance as a big fan of GitS in general, but I don't have many hopes.Besides the art style, there's the big issue of having Toh Enjoe as the main writer. If you watched the recent Godzilla anime you'd know this dude can't write anything compelling if his life depended of it. So much endless exposition and info dumps that don't make any sense even on third watch...
>>287052830Looks good but I don't like the fake retro spherical designs on everything.
is there STILL nothing about who is gonna coice the major?
only /a/ would nitpick thisthe fact that it even exists is insane, AND it looks great? what more could you want?
>>287054106>what more could you want?SEX with Motko.
Does the major have any love interests in the manga?
>>287053350>old good new badYes.
>>287054003Makoto in that panel doesn't really look much different than she does in the OP pic.
>>287054220She has a decent amount of casual sex in the manga + a boyfriend later that Batou mentions she'd been dating for over 6 months.
>>287054305Nah, they look very different.Look at the head-body proportions.The anime one looks like a teenager, while the one in the manga looks like an adult woman.She also has very well defined muscles in the manga ("female gorilla", remember?), the anime looks like severely toned down on that front.
>>287053391
>>287052830looks like shit
>>287052830Manga accurate major looks fun. I like serious major but wanna see this side of her too
>>287054296the manga is older, anon
>>287054003i still think the ps1 game captured shirow's design very well
who's the new VA for mangatoko?my pick is maaya sakamoto
This is going to blow chunks but the small niche of people agitating for a shitty adaptation are going to pretend it's Jesus come back to walk the Earth no matter what.
>>287052830KinoOshiifags BTFO
>>287052830how the hell does it take 40 years to get an accurate adaptation of a manga?
>>287054003Shirow's art isn't really consistent enough to talk about objective proportions. He draws characters changing shape and size for effect all the time.
Will it have nudity?
>>287054220Yes, some special forces gigachad (not Batou).
>>287052935nigger are you serious?
might be cool
>>287055367No one will bea nor surpass OshiKINO
Sex has happened between me and Motoko
>>287054615
>>287054003>So much endless exposition and info dumps that don't make any sense even on third watch...That's Shirou's style too
>>287054003>So much endless exposition and info dumps that don't make any sense even on third watch...Most people that have ever read Shirow's later sci-fi manga like Orion or GITS 2.0 will never understand what is even going on. There've been a few storytimes of his work on /a/ before and basically every one of them turns into a brainstorming session where people try to figure out what the fuck they're reading.
>>287055638Based on the production material... yes.
>>287056594Ah yes I remember seeing Motoko's cyber-pubes
>>287056393Gits I thought was mostly readable and understandable apart from the religious techno babble at the endI didn't understand a single part of most of the spells in orion even while reading the definitions of what the technomagic concepts he made up were
And the second page I have of this since I'm at it
>>287057940what year is this from?
>>287057940Call me illiterate, but I had a hard time even telling you anything about what happened in Man-Machine Interface the first time I read it. Like the basic sequence of cause and effect escaped me.Took me a second and then third read to understand the actual story and identify all the characters and their roles and identities.
>>287057995Japanese version released in 1986, and the english dark horse translation released in 2000 from what I could find on google, I wouldn't be able to tell you much more about the author notes
>>287057940>>287057966From the mind of a man who exclusively makes blacked and horse porn
>>287058036Man machine interface had a lot of confusing scenes and technobabble yeah, it's the worst out of the gits manga I'd say. The other gits manga are mostly cyberpunk cop drama and motoko adventures and aren't that bad to follow for the most part I thought, so the show trailer looks good already imo.
>>287058585You forgot the most famous category he's drawn though
>>287058437>1986neat, would've assumed early 90s
>>287053827I had. It's awful.
ill be honest /a/ ive only ever read the original and none of the sequels, I thought I was meant to jump into the one that very clearly says 2 but I got filtered hard by the sudden art shift, the utter abuse of 3D windows XP graphics like >>287058595 really put me off
>>287053101I'm going to file my taxes
>>287052830I will only watch if they don't get a new VA for Motoko
>>287058585What exactly is so deranged about the former that it needs to be brought up in a moralizing/offended tone every time?
>>287059104>why is the scifi author using digital art
>>287059267what's so deranged about the latter? I'm not saying I don't like it, I'm just saying this is what the GOAT scifi mangaka decided is a better use of his time on. In a way, I think he's right.
well?
Is this an original story?
>>287055638I will watch every episode's livestream completely naked; you know, just in case...So, yes, there will be some nudity.
>>287056754>>287056594>>287055638>>287061084But will there be the VR lesbian threesome
>>287058624That's really>Too colorful and cartoony. Is this GITS for toddlers?
>>287061146I don't know but I will be ready.Being ready is important.
>>287059104There's an interesting story if you push through. But it is genuinely told in the most un-reader-friendly way possible. Now books that lie to you or which are intentionally hard to get are common, but MMI is hard in the sense that the author will exposit massively on details that don't matter while details that do matter will get a single line referencing them and then you have another wave of meaningless technobabble dumped on you. It can be understood pretty decently if you take your time and learn to filter out the nonsense, but doing so is basically impossible on a first read through. You just don't know what mattered until it was all over, and then you'll need to go on a salty run back to figure it out a second time.
>>287059905>>287061698Is this a new gallery or the one from last year? I couldn't go because the ticket site didn't like my info
>>287062034It's just the booth at AnimeJapan
I love cute Motoko
>>287052830Looks good. Tachikoma is CGI tho
Will they be called tachikoma or fuchikoma in this?
>>287052935I miss the days when faggots like (you) were given the 2 week special>>287055802OShit is garbage
>>287059253yeah... about that. She got replaced
>>287062792Cutie
>>287058624And you forgot the second page.
>>287052830like the designs but i don't like the overall look of it
>>287063079Never mind you are retarded.
>>287062792I'm going to miss Motoko looking sexy instead of cute
I wonder if they'll ever make an anime adaptation of The Human Algorithm. It's definitely the best thing to come out of the franchise since Solid State Society. Seems like something Production IG would make.
what does the major's skin feel like
ENTER
>>287052830She's super cute
This outfit is really cool
>>287064739Badass.
>>287064739All her manga outfits are cool, Motoko's a bit of a fashionista>>287064236Warm silicone. I'd imagine it'd be pretty uncanny to be around people with robotic bodies, they look human but then you look closer and they don't have any body hair, you touch them and their skin is sticky and rubbery due to no oils and sweat, their eyes look all weird and shit
It won't be a real GITS anime unless there's a whole episode dedicated to the tachi/fuchikoma fucking around
>>287052830Wow it doesn't look like shit!Unlike AriseUnlike SAC_2045Oshiikino is still safe on its mountain of absolute kino though
How sexually active will Major be in this?
>>287067265She's got a boyfriend in the manga that's not Batou
>>287052830that art style would look better with some kind of retro filter
>>287068032It's called film grain
>>287052935No, THIS is GITS for toddlers. I do agree tho, this new movie looks like shit
>>287068073film grain + blurry linework
>>287068543Bottom really looks like it could be a bd remaster of some old cel anime.
>>287068543Artifacts of an obsolete production methodI'm not sure they need to be recreated, although bottom has a better color balance to my eyes
>>287068739dumb zoomer
>>287068543Maybe they can do a BD special edition where they add those in
>>287068777I'm 32 years old
Do zoomers even know what GITS is?
>>287052830
>>287052830I finished whole SAC recently and I just don't the argument for this adaptation to exist.If you like GITS for its themes and ambiance, 1995 movie is perfect and defined the genre.If you like GITS for the police squad shenanigans with some jokes and a sexy major, there's SAC doing exactly that.I don't get the need for a 1to1 adaptation of the manga.>yeah but I want a silly goofy major I feel like Batou and tachikoma in SAC execute the comedy aspect flawlessly and even the major has some funny moments but if you want the major to be just like the manga then again just read the fucking manga? In my opinion this is the fallout of the dogshit that was SAC2045 aka Ilya kushinov's fanfic and the show fucked up the franchise so bad they had to make a faithful adaptation just to get OG fans back on board by giving them their uguu waifu major so they don't shit their pants.Arise and 2045 designs are awful but if you think this new version is the defacto best anime major you are on crack and dont forget shirow masamune is now drawing BBC NTR porn meanwhile Oshii stands at the jp government.
>>287070409>you think this new version is the defacto best anime major you are on crackAre people saying this now? I'm all for trying something new with the IP, it just doesn't always work out (Arise)
>>287053349I rather like the way the facefuck handles have a little reinforced connector that looks like a microphone arm on a headset
I want my real life Motoko
>>287052830This looks absolutely perfect.
>>287071726Animation's a bit stiff, PSX game did it better
hype
>>287069093Everyone on the planet knows what the movie is, but if your referring to stand alone complex or the manga then id say like less than 1%
>>287071041>>287071644stop posting slop you dumb fag
>>287072827a lot of butt shots thats for sure
>>287072852If Shirow had slop back in his day he would have used it
>>287053876Considering the trailer and the poster in the OP it certainly looks like it will.Which would be a Major (heh) shame. You can't properly adapt the manga without the horny.
>>287073215>>287073468Imagine the smell.
>>287052830The trailer looks good, I hope I'm not getting my hopes up.
>>287064078In the manga she is both hot and silly.
>faithful adaption of the manga>will get rid of the fanservice
>>287073313Okay, and he's also obsessed with grotesque interracial porn.
>>287072852Embrace it faggot
>>287074596How's it grotesque?
>>287074596Blacked NTR is the thinking man's fetish after all
>>287073215I wouldn't have it any other way
>>287073215>>287074735
>>287074730It's not NTR though.
>>287054220it's Batou's turn
>>287052830are they more likely to drop the drugged out lesbian sex or the israeli op framing palestinian terrorists
>>287074855slap
>>287075450Would her ass feel soft or hard?
>>287075526soft as a pillow
>>287074673yikes
>>287052830It looks so good, I hope saru sticks the landing
>>287073313>>287074596Nah, Shirow seemed to believe that mankind could never create digital technology that surpasses humans in skill or creativity. AI art would be verboten for him, because computers would never be able to create like a human could, as they were mere tools of humanity rather than autonomous beings. He thought Biotech was where humanity would make something beyond itself, not digital tech.
>>287074730Only NTR in his blacked porn is editors cucking him out of drawing horsemen and dolphins.
>>287075526Hard as rock packed full of military grade synthetic muscle
>>287074673fuck off
>>287076942He can always self publish, I'd read it
>>287068785you can just change your MPV settings to add that shit in, I used to do it with old anime series that only had blurry 480p files
>>287077293But would you buy it?
>>287077359No
My money's on Chainsmoker Cat as best anime of july but we'll see
>>287055828if she didn't give you a rimjob it was worthless though
>>287052935its being faithful to the og manga
>>287077242AI IS THE FUTURENow dance!
>>287076942The artist who draws dolphin sex isn't Shirow, it's someone who imitates his style.>>287076927And yet, after his studio and all his art supplies were destroyed in the Kobe earthquake of 1995, he went all in on digital art and 3DCG, but it took him 15 years to get the hang of it.
>>287073596>no hornyblasphemy
>>287080644Digital painting and AI generated art are different things.
>>287080741Shirow seems like he'll use technology to take any shortcuts he can. The guys in his blacked porn are CG models because he still doesn't want to draw naked men, and he doesn't even want to draw Fuchikomas by hand anymore.
>>287080035https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c3w3e467ewqo
>>287081074CGI isn't much of a shortcut when you're doing short doujins and artbooks. He does it because he likes it.
>>287081938He never got good at it
The direction looks fantastic but don't they usually show a bit of sakuga in these promos? I'm worried it's going to be low budget
>>287084004He did. Just that his artbooks haven't really gotten scanned much.
>>287052830looks uglythe movie looked better
>>287078957Thanks for the warning, the manga was shit.
>>287084289It's Science Saru so rest assured there'll be sakuga.
>>287084289>>287084866Japanese anime lost the art of creating sakuga long time ago. If you guys are looking for sakuga you should check Korean or Chinese anime instead, they re-discovered sakuga.
>>287084953You should re-discover your prostate, fagboy.
>>287078876>meme gimmick anime will be the best anime of julyhow do I bet against you?
>>287052830>a light-hearted GiTS that tries to channel faux-80s-90s nostalgiaeh
>>287084866the priority was most likely going to be for mongolia show, so it's going to be moderate at best. dandadan s2 was not very polished either
>>287085143Don't, because you will lose
>>287052830i watched ghost in the shell and tank police back in the 90s and didn't realize they were set in the same universe and written by the same author until last year. guess i just didn't care enough.
I'm fine with him trying new shit, he always has, just getting pissed its always Gits, how about Appleseed, Dominion Black magic,hell how about Orion
>>287068543You do realize that the blurry linework is from upscaling right? Retro anime aren't blurry
>>287087293Dominion and GITS are not in the same universe
>>287052935>it needs to be boring gray slop to appeal to the movie tourists who think they're matureNo, fuck off. I want my Motoko to have an actual personality.
>>287087549tourist
>>287052830I'm a simple man. I see Science Saru, I download.
>>287087549
>>287089534Love these kitties.
>>287061084>>287084953>People get excited for some Nipshit>Suddenly Gook/Chink shillingFind me a group of people more annoying, pathetic and lowlife than Gooks, Chinks and their fanbase
>>287081812But you literally cannot generate NSFW content with Sora 2. I see that ai haters are the biggest ignorants about it.
>>287062896It's a FUCHIKOMA you uneducated SWINE
>>287052830The Major's head is too scrunched compared to the manga. I don't know why it's inevitable that anime adaptations fuck up proportions.
>>287090595As if the manga had consistent proportions
>>287068543you guys need to knock off the nostalgia. it's not all that great.
>>287052830cute robot!
>>287056393>GITS 2.0I really liked that, hope it gets animated with this animation style one day, maybe as a sequel.
>>287054106It was always all uphill battle with anons that have personal beef with digital animation.
>>287074725Weird, fucked up, exaggerated proportions, and everyone is weirdly shiny. I don't care to look for an example right now, but it shouldn't be hard to find if you use his name.
>>287057966Man I love tank/machines bugs so much it's unreal
>>287090457>the biggest ignorants
>>287052830I like it.
>>287081074>Shirow seems like he'll use technology to take any shortcuts he can. is an entirely different point which does not refute anon's point that >Digital painting (or 3DCG) and AI generated art are different things.There's a difference between taking a shortcut and just asking another guy to
>>287052935masterful b8
>>287070409I agree with everything you said, but I'll still probably check this out because it's not shitty CGI and it'll probably have some kino moments.
I just want more postcyberpunk stuff where cybershit is not inherently linked to dystopia but instead enables cool physical feats and action sequences that are awesome.
>>287064078Nice statue. I want one made of silicone that I can have sex with.
Is this show going to be like Hellsing Ultimate?
Why do people still think this is an adaptation of the manga
>>287102633Probably because so far it's the only one that makes an effort to look like the original manga.
>>287102503Now I want to see Seras in Motoko's outfit
>>287102503Seras was the clown on the show
>>287054106>it looks greatlmao
>>287102633Probably because they're showing scenes from the manga in the PV
Dog bless Science Saru
