I wanted a new thread to talk about the ghost in the shell anime, so we can all love our gremlin Motoko.

>>289290959Yeah I stole that shit fuck them
SAC Motoko is better
>obvious reddit Troll thread. Noone would actually be this cancerous.
I was copying files that were going to take about 30 mins so I watched episode 1 for the third time. I guess that means I like it.
>>289290808Censored slop for zoomers.
>>289290808Where my Arisechads at
>>289291701Did they add that banner themselves or is that some phoneposter thing?
>>289290808Go back, faggot.
>>289291827>zoomers
>>289290808We need new Manga scans
delete this gay thread please
>>289291827Zoomers don't give a shit about Ghost in the Shell, unless you're talking the ones that are 29 right now and might as well be classed as millennials. Zoomers have Psycho Pass, you can fuck off with your wannabe tranny anime.
mood status?
>>289290808Why did they turn the Major into Quirk Chungus?
>>289293560Because it's the original
is ghost in the shell itself an example of a stand alone complex?
Mamoru Oshii was right for removing the funny faces.
This one is really riling up the chuds
The threads of this show gave up.
>289294199>289294425>289294451>baiting on c/d>>289290808You couldn't even cut the reddit plaque? Stop chugging semen, you lazy fuck.
This is the best decision she has taken
>>289290808I like how nobody ever mentions that Motoko is straight up an ultra nationalist NAZI (TM). And, she's always 100% right in all her political views and opinions.
>>289290808OG manga is shit aside from gun designs. SS anime is shit because it is based off manga. simple as
>>289294476That super-duper anti-immigration message at the end of the first episode was hiliarious. Is this gonna be a chuddy anime like Freiren?
>>289294476almost all japs are that. it's funny normie shitlibs still eat it up.
The only thing that might be more boring that the original movie is Blade Runner.
>>289294532GITS's movie is not that boring, it has interesting themes and big boobs. It was a lot less boring than Akira.
>Trying out new bait in the bait thread
>>289294532>best anime ever made and one of the best films ever made>boringzoomies gonna zoom hehe. enjoy ur slopslop lil bro
>>289294614I found Akira more interesting. Neither of them are good in my opinion. Anime is all about cute girls.
>>289294476Nazis / Natsocs are about invasions, eugenism and genocide, and it's german oriented only. Motoko is just japanese and a glowie. Yeah being just japanese is enough to explain.
>>289290808I fell asleep watching the first epMight give it another try later
>>289294635Ok grandpa. Tell us more how Mazinger changed the way of anime.
>>289294680Go Nagai is good and yes his influence is huge retarded zoomer. Go back fapping on My Hero Academia and shut the hell up. We all know you are a mulatto with broccoli hair born in 2008.
>>289294726You're waaay out of touch senile man. Kids don't watch MHA these days.
>>289290808First episode had few infodumps and felt a bit disjointed where we don't really know what is going around.I hope next ones gonna be a bit more story focused in more coherent way, or a bit more backstory over Major cause in episode 1 it sounds like she came out of nowhere and suddenly she leads her task force, too many things happened off-screen for me. Feels like they decided to cram 4 episodes of content into 1.
>>289294726Go back to the farm unc
>>289294759That's one thing Arise did right, thoughever. Not the Alternative Architecture cut, mind, that was plain retarded, but if you watch the OVAs they do a good job of showing the creation of Section 9.It's the Ghost Babel of the series, highly underrated.
>>289294749>watching 2020s post-covid dystopic non-human slopsWoaw, This is fitting with GITS unironically, I have no solutions for this dystopian madness
>>289294759You know I think it was pretty well done, when I read the manga I have understood NOTHING.
>>289294780Because the sloppiest slop has become better. Kids these days watch Frieren.
>>289294759She does come from off-screen, in a literal sense. She was basically a glowie for the previous prime-minister that didn't technically exist. She's offered herself to the new administration on the condition that she gets to be legit, and they're all scared shitless because she's just demonstrated that she's a high tech cyborg assassin with access to cutting edge tech, along with the ability AND the willingness to wax politicians on dubious legal grounds. The bureaucrats immediately want a pretext to (ideally) throw her in a dark hole forever or at the very least put a leash on her.
>>289294759>uh how can i understand this characters motivations without a 2 hour backstory
>>289295448Sorry for not being a pig like you when it comes to stories.
>>289294653people don't appreciate how cute she is
>>289295465youre the reason everything is a prequel and shit
>>289294749>Kids don't watch MHA these daysYou are a fucking idiot.
Has anyone complained about the ed yet?The entire gimmick of the show is that it's a living fossil, straight from the 80s, true to the source and then they end each episode with post malone niggerbabble mumblerap.Incredible math was one thing, that was American too but at least it wasnt this garbage.
>>289293435How are 97ers millennials?
>>289295788>Has anyone complained about the ed yet?No, you're the only retard like that so far. Ain't nothing even rap about it, just a song.
>>289295844>Ain't nothing even rap about itI'm sorry you're black, it's not your fault. I understand you might feel attacked by my dismissive attitude towards rap music. There is some good rap, its just not a good fit for a supposed retro gits.And even if you ignore the rap part of my argument, are you really going to claim that this song fits with the retro atmosphere?
:D
>>289295928I am whiter than you. It's not even rap. I wouldn't know. It's a great fit.
>>289295788>>289295928Your lily white ass is tickled pink
Why is episode 2 already leaked?Only in shit quality though
>>289295969Because it was shown in cinemas.
>>289291748why was she making this face?
>>289296041She looked up what Masamune Shirow has been drawing recently
>>289296041You don't?
>>289291748Cute
Wake me up when her tits get exposed and bounce around all over the screen
>>289293435Its a shame anime companies are ruining anime to try and draw them in.
>>289296118I want one.
>>289295822No, they're zoomers. Early zoomers.
>>289296154hollow spherical joints humanoid robots driven by AI can move around pretty human-like, even do shit like cartwheels and flipsI'm surprised nobody had taken one and draped it into one of those silicon fuck dolls yetboth robots and dolls are sold for a high price, separately
>>289296207Oh, like 96ers?
I too like me some good minivan wheel sometimes.
>>289295822Grew up with millennial tech, media and mentality.
>>289295553Why would anyone watch that unc slop shounen shit?
I just started. 5 minutes into the episode and I'm liking this already. I've been into anime for like 23 years but never got to watch GITS before because I'm a huge contrarian and popular stuff ticked me off.It took me a loooong time to muster courage to watch big stuff like Gurren Lagann (great), LOGH (great), Evangelion (mid), Black Lagoon (shit) and Cowboy Bebop (shit). I wanted to try MONSTER and LAIN but uhhhhh they're so popular and seem pretentious I don't want to watch it!
>>289294451I have never been more disgusted by /a/ than reading the threads for this show. Fucking worthless faggots are letting one shitposter poison the well completely with his gay-ass blackedposting
Remember the 2017 movie
screenshots and discussion regarding the old GITS gave me a serious & pretentious psycho pass-esque impression, but this is completely different from what I expected. I like how colorful and expressive everything is.
>>289296717Is it the same guy who keeps pretending to crusade against it?
>>289296705I can't stand how she's blue haired. I've spent the past 25+ years (since I first watched the first GITS movie and then watched the other movies and the SAC series) seeing her as having purple hair. Now she has blue hair. I don't care if it's her original hair color. She looks cheap with blue. Purple makes her look elegant and high class.
bruh they didn't translate the very important "food" ingredient list.
looks like gits was overrated, scarjo movie was better
>>289296744Psychop ASS is trash, bro. Don't even compare anything GITS with Urobullshit's midwit brain droppings.
lol cute chibi
>>289296705You're letting sheeple dictate your entertainment diet? Are you a woman?
>>289296717I have the opposite opinion. This is the /a/ I want. Shitposting about GITS.
>>289296738She is a brain inside a cyborg body and it's hilarious seeing this guy pretending that he truly cares about GITS.
is everyone somewhat cyborg in this anime setting?
wtf she's dead already
>>289296738KONNICHIWA DUDE
SAC > live action > 1995 > new anime > literal shit > manga
>>289296841Everyone but literal hobos have at least neralink-style implants. But actually being full body cyborg is expensive upfront and in maintenance so only people that need it for work or richfags can afford it.
>>289296886Original is always the best. anything that isn't a faithful adaptation is a mere fanfiction at best, vandalism at worst..
>289296886>live action not at bottom tierNo (You)s for you
>>289296900>Original is always the best.Plenty examples where original sucked ass and adaptation made it better.
>>289296900respectfully disagree.
>289296910it was pretty good, stop being a contrarian
>>289296917>>289296920bet you consume japanese cartoons and video games with english dubs
FKMT style
>>289296886swap 1995 and live action now or else
>>289296947SHE HATES IT
so Ghost just means real human brain in the head instead of AI like the operator girl who died?
>>289296934I watch anime exclusively with subs. I was watching One Piece as an ongoing since Skypeia with Vegapunk fansubs. And I know many examples where source material was lacking and adaptation made it better. Overlord WN sucked giant ass, editor made it into popular franchise starting with LN. Same with One within the Villainess and Slave Harem Labyrinth. WNs were very dry and too autistic respectively, adaptations made them better.So you are incorrect about original ALWAYS being better, unless you are some sort of contrarian purist pseud.
>>289296970Ghost is in its meaning of "Spirit", consciousness.2501 from 1995 movie had Ghost but no brain, for example.
>>289290808>reddit in the catalog
>>289296934bet you use subs and fan translations
>>289296975faithful adaptation, not complete rewrite like GITS anime.
>>289296984new anime is SOVLold anime is reddit
>all these zoomers asking questions about GITSI mean it is an old show and older manga but I would assume at least cyberpunk hype made zoomers be aware of GITS
>>289296989Shirow signed off on it so idk what are you on.
Kusanagi's unit works for the government and they raid... government facilities?
>>289297034the plot is from 90s, just turn your brain off bro
>>289297015>authors can't be coerced into agreeing to stuffok
>>289297034Yeah? You've never heard of stories like federal glowies raiding corrupt anti-narcotics units?
>>289296771Depends on the region.
>>289297055So, our girl is one of THE GOOD GUYS?
>>289297034I bet you're also shocked that people on /a/ don't all have the same opinions.
>>289297089>former assassin>turned pmc>turned glowie>part-time sting vice prostIt's bad vs evil kind of story.
does major have one?
Done with the episode.Really good. one of the best this season (Neko to Ryuu is still better).I still don't plan on watching the other anime since I really like this one and the other anime seem to have a completely different vibe which I feel I wouldn't like.
>>289296738Almost every anime character has white skin and pink nipples. The Japs want to be white.
>>289297103is she gonna assassinate some big name influencer with problematic views in the middle of an open debate in some university?
>>289297113"other anime" are police stories with some philosophical message
>>289297034Even in regular circumstances there should be a branch of government that conducts oversight on how the other branches adhere to the law.But there's always interbranch and interagency conflicts, rivalry and conflict of interests. Like FBI and CIA, for example.Imagine what's happening in a corrupt state that's ifested with such conflicts.
>>289297129She just killed foreign diplomat that was trying to poach corrupt officials through abusing asylum.Also go back >>>/pol/
>>289296738I remember it being great.
>>289297139Like the ongoing KPK vs Prabowo and his corrupt regime.
>>289297078>war, mobilization and no fuelHey but at least your anime is translated!
>>289297133Sounds dogshit. I'd rather rewatch Psycho Pass.
>>289297181
I like how they got Sakamoto Maaya. She rocks this Motoko.
>>289297156>PrabowoI didn't even know that Widodo is no longer the president. What an odd place to recieve the news.
>>289297119About 70% of JAV actresses I come across have punk nipples too.
>>289297111her ass has been remodeled solely for pleasure, no poop
>>289297254Good. Black nipples are ugly.
>>289296841Almost everyone has a cyberbrain, which is a non-invasive injection of nanomachines that essentially act as a PC in their head. There's various levels of actual prostheses depending on the character Togusa is entirely human with only a cyberbrain, Batou and the major are disembodied brains in robot tin cans.
imagine the hentai of him with major
>>289297227>>289297309wkwk
>>289297309>HUR GHIIII QH HST HIGT 3III TEI OQ IIS
>>289297263I'd remodel her ass if you know what I mean
>>289297319Huh?
>>289297326I sound like this.
>>289297111Glucose Cartridge or Turbo Shitter?
autism
>>289297360*autistic mode
>>289296788Speak for yourself, bro. I found Psycho Pass S1 and S3 to be superior to most of GITS, SAC and 95 excepted. Even then Oshii disappears up his ass too much, I find both SAC S2 and his films have far too many holes.If only the fucker had stayed away from SAC S2.
>>289297309>you just knowAlso now I watched this part again... did they CGI the TV?
>new tachikomaswould
>289297119>The Japs want to be white.You retards repeat this for years like a mantra, as if to convince yourselves.
>>289297475do not the tachikomas
>>289297479Every romcom has blonde blue/green/red eyes caucasian beauty.
>>289297494Named Alice Cartelet or Braunschweig Ingenohl Friedeburg or something
>"I came here to laugh at you"
>>289290808Finished episode 1, its really fun so far! Loved the art direction and animation and Motoko is cut af but her personality felt off throughout. One minute she's calling the re-education facility horrible and then the next she's telling the kid to fuck off and deal with his own problems
>>289297923What is off about it?Yeah forced child labor through torture punishment is horrible.No, top tier glowie operator isn't obligated to setup orphan lives.Likely they will be moved to a facility that isn't as shit by bureaucrats.This is like being saved from the fire and complaining fireman didn't build you new house to live in.
>>289296983what's the glitchy stuff that comes out of people's heads when they get headshot? is that the ghost?
>>289298031Bro that's just gore censorship, similar to Edgerunners.
>>289293435>Zoomers don't give a shit about Ghost in the ShellZoomers are getting into GitS for the first time with this anime.
>>289296738Is this how woketards in the Western world view East Asians? Are we all supposed to look completely yellow with no diversity? Real fucking racist of them.
>>289298086Of course not. There are yellow asians and then there's also a jungle variety.
>>289297111>mirroring the page to achieve left-to-right>in an unofficial fan translationinsanity
>>289297536neither of those characters is from a romcom
>>289297923I think a lot of people are missing the point of that scene.Motoko works for the government. It was a government facility. The kid is asking the government to save him from the government. Motoko does care but the kid isn't actually that bad off. The intro scene states that at the time of the episode Japan has a population of 79 million with that in mind, the kid has work, food and shelter and isn't in imminent danger of losing his life, the country clearly has people who need help more than him.
>>289294493BIGSHOULDERSUITS
>>289298131People used to mirror stuff even for unofficial scanlations. Wild times.
>>289298172They're projected to be down to those numbers IRL at the end of century. For them to have 80M at ~2030, that must've been one fucking big war. Sea level seem to have risen too, did some nukes detonate over Antarctic?
>>289298204Ghost in the shell is set after both a third and fourth world war, the fourth being massively nuclear.
>>289296744I'm realising now that gits is going to have a gay zoomer fanbase for the rest of time.
>>289298358As opposed to the gay millennial fanbase?
>>289298053Whatever helps you cope, zoomers aren't into retro anime to begin with. GitS and its themes, style, genre none of it appeals to them.
>>289298358>Anime based on a manga with a lesbian sex scene and themes of personal identity has a gay fanbaseWOAH NO WAY :0
>>289298374moeshit and the old gits fanbase didn't really intersect, you can bring up the manga but she wasn't overtly cute, the manga itself was completely overshadowed by the film and SAC. The designs and expressions in this version are attracting the TRIGGER waifu audience. I don't necessarily hate it but its making me realise why I stopped browsing /a/ and why I generally cant stand the majority of hardcore anime fans
>>289298358yikes
>>289298531If you have some weird emotional attraction to GITS you should not browse /a/. It's not that important and certainly not relevant. When people make fun about it whatever.
>literal reddit threadProbably best to just don't post or even look at GiTs threads until episode 3 or 4
*Koukaku Kidoutai
I'm just glad there is new content that's good quality. Nothing said in these threads will detract from my enjoyment.
>>289298562yeah I'm old now, but I saw something strange happen to anime for a tiny sliver of time in the 90s and early 00s. Anime like GITS 95 were so influential they shifted the entire medium to finally be about something more than jerking off to cute girls. I'm realising that era is so far gone gits itself has become attractive to the heat death moeshitters who thought gits was pretentious and dull.>>289298596I don't have a crazy emotional connection to gits, I like the new series and I think gremlin motoko is appealing too, I'm just realising the culture that got me into anime and what I think made it special is dead, its destined to be monkey brain shit for monkey brain coomer taste.
>>289297161Dont be mean with Ukranians
>>289298718>I'm realising that era is so far gone gits itself has become attractive to the heat death moeshitters who thought gits was pretentious and dullAnime used to be made by people who lived. Now it's just those who have next to no life experience. You can see a decline in artistic sensibilities, particularly the philosophical kind, throughout the medium.Even it's best shows are lacking in that sensibility. The fact that Yoko Taro is making a new Evangelion anime sums it up.
>>289298732Is the image in Ukrainian? Retard.
>>289298718>the culture that got me into anime and what I think made it special is deadWhat is that? I would say that my favorite anime from the 90s is probably Initial D, Cardcaptor Sakura, Sailor Moon, Evangelion or even shit like Evangelion. GITS is fine but not that great.
>>289298745Define "life experience".
>>289298718I really despise manime faggots and toonamitards holy shit
>old man discovers his peers don't watch the same cartoons as when they were teens>somehow the youth (people almost 30) are to blame
>>289298531The worst part about the new Ghost in the Shell anime is definitely the combination of commentary from normalfag retards whose only experience with anime was when they watched GITS or Akira under the covers from their parents because they thought anime was going to get them into trouble or something and tourist trolls who want to pit the different adaptations against each other
>>289298912>The worst part about the new Ghost in the Shell anime is basketweaving forum trollsYou're insane. Just close the tab if anything posted here can affect your experience from new adaptation.
>>289298801The feelings mutual, /a/ is fucking worst place on the internet to discuss anime, its crazy. its like walking in on a gay group masturbation session every time I open a thread.>>289298791>Cardcaptor Sakura>Sailor MoonI dont like that shit, this is also my point, moeshit existed during and before anime became "pretentious" and aimed to express something more than an adoration of little girls. It was purely driven by creators admiration for popular anime of the era like GITS, Eva, satoshi kon etc.. It was cool to try to express something deeper, even if it was clumsy or pretentious that spirit is important in art.>>289298745The fact that yuuasa's studio now makes hyper mainstream hits like dandadan is kind of a sign of the times. I still like their output a lot but their mainstreaming is a sign of both the draw back on sincere expression and a desire from the mainstream for studios who still have some of that spirit.
>>289298967Bro shut the fuck up there's still contemplative serious stuff on the level of Mushisi coming out almost every season.
>>289298792If you need me to define it you are already lost...
>>289298932There's really not much to complain about the anime. It'd be great if the threads discussing the show weren't filled with the worst people imagined though. Like this is a literal reddit thread
>>289299014That's a copout. Answer the question. Everyone alive clearly has his own "life experience". Clarify what YOU mean by that.
>>289298996no there isn't, once in a while you get something and they no longer set the tone for the entire industry the way they used to. Its always some tiny passion project that they have to grind through 20 isekai tier shitshows to afford.
>>289299025>It'd be great if the threads discussing the show weren't filled with the worst people imagined thoughThat's true for /TV/ when show is not airing and for /VT/ when vtuber is not streaming. Just come back after the episode, the retards and trolls will be drowned out by actual discussion.>>289299061>they no longer set the tone for the entire industry the way they used toBoo fucking hoo, grass was greener and your knees used to hurt less. Suck it up, just like everyone else. Time only marches forward.
>>289299061isekai haven't been a substantial part of anime coming out for years now. This is why I hate normalfags because they aren't even aware of trends and everything. Kadowa literally came out with a report about needing to make less isekai recently>>289299082>phoneposter
>>289299054What he's saying is fucking obvious. Consuming media is not real life experience, its pre-digested experience from an artist who has spent time organising and moulding their personal experience of life. Increasingly anime creators only have pre-chewed thoughts and feelings to work with, this turns everything into homogenous lizard brain slop, this spiral gets worse as creators who inspire other creators are themselves programmed by creators with no thoughts and feelings outside what another artist gave them.
It's almost impressive to have the taste of a teenager while still acting like an insufferable old man.
>>289299118>phoneposterWhat prompted this?>>289299118>isekai haven't been a substantial part of anime coming out for years now.NTA and I love isekai but there is at least 10 isekai airing this season.>>289299165Are you his interpreter? Let the anon answer himself.As if people didn't draw inspiration from books and manga for best part of century.
>>289299118i said isekai tier shit, not isekai because I stopped tracking seasonal anime years ago, i don't give a fuck what the trends are now and if its shitty fantasy slop like frieren or some other gay trend you're riding.
i dont like that they gave the tachikoma mouths
>>289299204do not
I clapped
>>289299082what is this stupid violent reaction you idiots have to any kind of retrospection? it it painful for you to contemplate what may have changed in an industry? Is the point of a thread just to point at cute screen caps and talk about how you want to fuck it?
>>289297763
>>289299262I laugh when Motoko does essentially 90's cop show "MY GUTS ARE TELLING ME!" and chief just goes along with it every time.>>289299275Because your whining is unbecoming. What are you, Oshii?>Is the point of a thread just to point at cute screen caps and talk about how you want to fuck it?Now you get it.
>>289298912The worst part about faggy anime fans is they think anyone who doesn't obsess over who they want to fuck is a hyper casual even if they've been watching anime longer than them.
>>289299289You're fucking boring, stop talking to me. I wasn't trying to engage with a stupid monkey. you're quite free to ignore my posts.
>>289299330Concession accepted.
>>289299190Not at all surprised you love isekai, considering you're asking me to elaborate on the obvious.If you really need to be told about what living life is, you're not living it either. There's a reason a decent number of anime and Japanese games, besides movies like Anno's Ritual hit you on the head with that message.Turn the console off, cease the escapism, go out there and live.If you really want to be educated on this issue, just search up what senior animators have said about this. Anime was a form of capturing life for them, it doesn't seem to be the case anymore.
>>289299368>go out there and live.Was that worth it to be all passive aggressive bitch before finally answering what meaning did you put into "life experience"?>senior animatorsAre you advocating for luddism?>Anime was a form of capturing life for them>for themAnd life has changed and new people are turning into artists now.Are you just screaming at the clouds?
>>289299336>I'm just realising the culture that got me into anime and what I think made it special is dead, its destined to be monkey brain shit for monkey brain coomer taste.>Is the point of a thread just to point at cute screen caps and talk about how you want to fuck it?>Now you get it.Thanks for proving my point, every time I come back here its dumber. I'll take my leave, I'm not here to stand in the way of anyone's gay internet orgie.
>>289293435zoomers don't give a shit about Psycho Pass because no one gives a shit about Psycho Pass
>>289299477Fucking finally retarded spoilsport is out of the door.
>multiple zoomers complain they couldn't follow the plot due to fast pacing>multiple millenials praise new adaptation for not treating audience like ADHD riddled retards>unc comes out of the woodwork with Miyazaki rant how, for some reason, people massively started to prefer escapism to engaging reality, and it reflects on tough to digest fiber % in average modern anime dishYou got hung up on artstyle, which is on-model with 80-90's original manga, mind you.

>>289298718>Anime like GITS 95 were so influential they shifted the entire medium to finally be about something more than jerking off to cute girls.That was Evangelion's influence retard, 95 GITS had very little influence and there was a metric ton of sci-fi anime/manga that came out before it.

10 episodes might be enough to adapt the first volume but i sure hope they'll adapt at least 1.5 too in another season.People who think 10 ep is enough to adapt all 3 volumes clearly have not read the manga.
>>289300301I skimmed through vol2 and it was dogshit with all the CGI.
>>289300438Even if you can tolerate the weird art the story is completely incomprehensible.I'd love to see them try to untangle that mess.1.5 is mostly like a cop TV show with another case every chapter. (or that's how i remember it having read it a long time ago)

>>289296738>>289297152
>>289298718If anything what distinguished GITS 95 from its contemporaries was not the lack of "cute girls to jerk off to" but the lack of gratuitous violence and gore that was commonplace in the late 80s/early 90s sci-fi OVA ecosystem.It never set the tone for anything. Nothing by Oshii could because it's unique and "auteur"-esque by definition, it would always be an exception to industry trends no matter what those were.You are right that over the decades the amount of creator-driven personal projects has diminished to near zero though.

I didnt like it as much as Oshii's films or SAC but I did like it, which is much more than I can say for Arise and the animation is great unlike that 3D Netflix shit.

Its a lot...goofier this time. Why is that?
>>289299204Its weirder that they have teeth.
>>289304918Because Mamou Oshii wasn’t around to turn it into a philosophically-focused exploration of the universe and is instead the original work where Major is another early ‘90s goofball killgirl.
>>289304918>Why is that?Its strictly adapting the manga. Minus the stuff that would get it pulled from Japanese tv.
>>289305160>>289305173Huh. So its the old movie that got it wrong. Interesting.
>>289305160I'm not really familiar with Oshii's works aside from GITS movie and Jin Roh. Reading these threads was fascinating, apparently he sucks all life and joy out of every property he gets to adapt and leaves an autistic bleak existential essay? It's so weird, reminds me of a parasite, even though I love his GITS movie as a standalone work. Shirow's brand of chaotic and fun autism is way more up to my alley
>>289305303Seems more like he just prefers things to be more..."artsy". Super serious and realistic.But I remember people losing their shit over the movie in the late 90s, so it must have worked for some.
>>289293435Not really Zoomers absolutely love Edgerunners.

>>289298358Good, the better to keep whiny crusty faggots like you who have no joy or vitality or creativity left

>>289306393That's fine its entirely aping off of Minority Report.
>>289297113The '95 movie is definitely worth watching, maybe once this series is over. It follows the same basic plot that this one most likely will, but the tone is completely different. I'll certainly be rewatching it for the contrast.
>>289306414So Psycho Pass is the only one I didn't watch. I think I dropped Texhnolyze because it fucked me up after the reveal that there's no one left on the surface because by excommunicating all spicy humans into the hole, humanity died the fuck off.Maybe I should rewatch Ergo Proxy and Lain, I was very young and can't remember shit anymore.>>289306416>1What is this?

>>289306614I liked Code Geass, FMP and Patlabor as much as the next person, but I can't be assed with most of /m/.
somehow I never got around to watching/reading gits in all the years I've been watching anime/reading mangaso far I've only seen the 1995 film and this new episodewhat else is worth watching, and does it matter what order it's done in?
>>289306705Watch in order of release. Everything except 2020+ CGI shit is worth watching.
>>289306705Stand Alone Complex is the best adaptation besides the '95 movie (not counting the new anime yet), but it's pretty loose with the source material. It's basically anime X-Files starring the cast of Ghost in the Shell.
>>289306705Standalone Complex is overratedInnocence is goated but people aren't ready to hear that
>>289306827>Innocence is goated but people aren't ready to hear thatYou think this is a hot take or something?
I can't believe Studio Ghibli was involved with Innocence.
>>289306953Ghibli made Grave of the Fireflies. Its not that surprising for them get involved with a more mature project.
>>289305215It's not necessarily that it got it wrong. Shirow himself liked how the 1995 movie was made and felt the need to inject more of the philosophy stuff into his manga, probably because he thought it was cool. He had already started to do it a bit after the original first manga, but he did go a little overboard with it. Nothing he made for the manga really matched up with the 1995 movie, but he did still manage his autism for details.
you're all insufferable hyperbolic contrarians that care more about intentionally stepping on toes than anime

>>289298358Are zoomers even caring about this release?, they were never into GITS, closest thing would be that it might attract the Edgerunner fags because it is another colorful cyberpunk anime, but if so, then we will have to wait and see since I have not seen any zoomer be interested into the show, not even on Xitter/Reddit/Insta normgroid spheres.

you know it was pretty optimistic and lucky for sec 9 in SAC to assume they wouldn't get reprisal'd or disappeared when they were captured by Umibouzu especially after Ishikawa and Batou killed some of their comrades. Doubly so when there were probably still a few rogue DEA agents out and about.But maybe the PM and his party were protecting them as part of Aramaki's deal
>>289297034is there even a single GITS entry without fed vs fed violence?Innocence maybe?

>>289312253>gooners losing their shit over a frame of blushing cyborg during periodkek
>>289297034Did you miss the whole scene where they theorize that the Ministry of Interior Affairs is trying to bait the unit into raiding a secret government facility so they can conveniently get rid of her? A recurring theme in the franchise is that politics is dirty and different parts of the government basically do their own thing and even unknowingly or knowingly fight against each other. The Major is a glowie that's caught up in all of this.
>>289303360>>289304717>>2893057422045 is dogshit.Its a show that is somehow worse than the sum of its parts.It's GITS when it would've been better off as it's own thing, it's SAC when it would have made more sense as a separate spinoff, it has a literal tracer/grifter snownig as a char designer, it has worse dialogue, it has godawful CG animation, breaking with the tone established by SAC it amps the stakes up to global scale and divulges setting details that 1st and 2nd gig deliberately kept vague (only succeeding in making the setting sound retarded), it makes the characters out as somehow even more stoic and static than they were in 1st and 2nd gig with some char details arbitrarily changed to make them worse, and its' supposedly "alright/servicable narrative" that supposedly shows up in the latter season isn't even that good or well written.In contrast to 1st Gig and 2nd Gig which are political thrillers that use cyberpunk and scifi ideas to explore society and comment on emerging realities; 2045 is a middling scifi action story that is skinwalking the political and philosophical aesthetic of previous entries and uses tired and unoriginal scifi tropes to drive its plot.It doesn't even fucking have a standalone complex. There's no emergent social phenomenon, no independent actors converging on the same behavior creating what looks like a coordinated movement. The posthumans originate from 1A84's doing. The kid actively engineers the N shit, so its effectively a form of mass cyberbrain manipulation rather than independent convergence. It's the opposite of an SAC. The Laughing Man snowballed because people independently recreated him. The Individual 11 became a self-propagating meme and revolution. But N exists cause some fag and the system are deliberately constructing it. And the show never develops its ideas with the clarity that old SAC did, spending most of its runtime searching for and confronting specific masterminds like the kid and 1A84.
>>289312714I think people that saw the first two episodes in cinemas said that the second episode is better
>>289310061comfy and dick smothering ass
>>289314294It's the definitive MGS4 anime adaption, taking all the good themes from it and excising the trash. Cope and seethe.
>>289309015I don't think this retro ass shit is hooking any zoomers, or even attempting to. This one's clearly for all the uncs that read the original manga.
>>289314809MGS4 doesnt make the retarded notion that the superhero BS is a forgone conclusion as the next step of humanity's evolution, and somehow 2045 is even more clumsily written anyway. 2045 doesn't even have characters to fall back on since it flanderizes exiting ones and every new addition it has is fucking awful. You're just lampshading the fact that 2045 is unoriginal on top of it not even iterating on the shit it's aping in any interesting new ways. SSS literally invalidates everything 2045 is just by existing. Kuze just as a single character explores the hub consciousness puppeteer shit with way more nuance than all of 2045.1st and 2nd gig had complex multilayered narratives and not a straightforward and milquetoast popcorn plot.1st gig had the Laughing Man as main thread to keep generating new questions. Every question and answer makes the world larger. Most people don't even catch that Fukami was the OG Laughing Man or at least the dude Aoi got the blackmail idea from, actually most people probably don't fucking know who Fukami is despite watching all of the show since the show is so dense with interwoven narratives that you learn new shit every rewatch. Shit like the corrupt drug companies being in cahoots with the DEA subplot usually go straight over the heads of people.2045 has none of the theming 2nd gig has regarding Japan's real life geopolitical reality or the parallelisms between Kuze and Gouda vs Tsuge and Arakawa from Patlabor 2 directly continuing the thesis from that film.Nothing like what SSS comments on regarding their irl welfare state.Nag, 2045 is largely just built around asking what the posthumans are and what shimamura is planning. Straightforward 1-dimensional shit that have lame as fuck answers. Once the audience learns them, much of the narrative tension evaporates.
>>289312346Legend of galactic the heroes has an interesting plot but monster does not so i counter your recommendation.. Mercy on his tastes. I bet he'll like code geass, bet he didn't watch that either.
>>289314809>>289315307And how can I forget mentioning how MGS4 actually looks good and has actual good shot composition and visual direction despite being a videogame instead of a medium that is literally just audiovisuals.The real reason why it's so bad needs to be reiterated is cause most people didn't even bother watching it cause it looks like sloppy asshole, and the ones that did never continued watching because of how bad the first half already was, which I envy cause the second half was just a waste of time anyway
>>289315366it's being so*
>>289312310We already lost the fight on "kino".The front has moved, we must now focus on kicking out only those who go as far as say "HFK".

>>289315307Nice wall of text bro, you need to chill. It's not my fault you lack the grounding in economics to appreciate 2045.....Politics is old hat, there's only so much you can explore there. That's why they moved to economics.If you're fixating on the superhuman shit, no wonder you're missing what makes 2045 great.
>>289315472Her hair changes colour constantly in the manga. I headcanon it as she can simply change it at will as a feature of her body.
>>289315491Her hair changing color is a stylistic flare normally used for intense imagery. It seems pretty obvious that her actual intended hair color is black/very dark brown as that is how it appears in her neutral discussion scenes.
The animation is great, the direction is great, i don't really like the music though. Great start, i love this studio.
>>289296744Silly lesbian, she likes women because men are rapey and she doesn't like that because she wants to be action girl. Fake lesbian, if not for cyberpunk shit she could be easily correct by the cock

>>289316206That's just obvious. Some lesbians are like this.
>>289298041>>289298031That was the only thing i really disliked
>>289297152>>289296738It isn't. It's just generic robocop in GitS setting. Only the starting scene that copies the anime perfectly and the robo gueisha designs are worth anything in that movie.
>>289316243>That's just obvious. Some lesbians are like this.I see.>>289316273The tank at the end was cool too.
>>289316288I guess. But the story is shit and the dialog for dummies making sure the average murrican audience can understand that ghost means soul is the perfect representation of the whole movie.
>>289316310I always defined it like consciousness but I guess it's Shinto' heathens idea of soul.
>>289290808As a newfag to GitS who's only ever watched the 95 movie (and can barely remember anything other than the intro and it's ost), what's the best way to get into this? Should I read the manga first and then try some of the series? Skip any? Heard the new one is really good and faithful to the manga, so should I just wait for that one to finish and try it before the others?
>>289316533There's no real continuity, watch them in order of release. 2045 is ass watch at your own risk. Manga vol1 and vol1.5 are okay, vol2 is ass. You don't have to wait for it to finish.
>>289316582Alright, guess I'll just watch/read those if I really enjoyed the rest. Thanks
>>289297034>>289313867They also said that the place they raided went rogue. They were using military based equiptment and had a ghost controller. So they suspected they were up to no good.
>>289298745>Anime used to be made by people who livedLike who?Most of them are just art school kids who got hired by studio in there 20s and made anime for the rest of their lives
>>289314413Judging by the manga, the second episode is the one with the ghosthacking garbageman, right?
>>289314552more like pelvis crushing ass. Full body cyborgs weigh like twice as much as normal people. In universe, facilities have weight pads under the floor to check if visiting people are normal or cyborg. Also to detect intruders with opticam and the like.
>>289315484>economics again 2045 doesn't actually focus on it, the AI just comes to the conclusion that the stupid broken window idea works because it works.The concept is that nations and corporations, somehow, need to deliberately maintain perpetual low-intensity conflict because modern capitalism requires constant economic stimulation or something, but it never actually convincingly explores the actual mechanism. It's just a foregone conclusion, a fait accompli you have to be under in order to justify the superhero whodunnit the show actually wastes its time on. You just have to subscribe to the idea that wars are when humanity progresses the most, just please don't think about the broken window fallacy too much.How the fuck is the war financed? don't think about it. Why are citizens benefiting from it and how? if not then why is it still a thing? don't think about it, just is. How does inflation remain controlled?Why is war more efficient than public works? Why don't rival states simply defect from the system? The AE was characterized as bumbling and incompetent all the way back in 1st gig, it should be easy.How the fuck did the GED actually happen? They don't fucking say, AIs just did it or some shit. Let's throw nuance out the fucking window.All of this ignoring how the show itself fucking abandons talking about all this shit the moment they get hired back, which is what, the 2nd or 3rd ep? I forget
Tachikoma>fuchikoma
>>289317935>but it never actually convincingly explores the actual mechanism.Conflict spurs innovation. Europe got fat and lazy on their social programs and stopped innovating, and was not ready for kinetic war with Russia.>ou just have to subscribe to the idea that wars are when humanity progresses the mostYes this is very true. Look at Ukraine with their drones, everyone wants them now because they were in a desperate situation and were forced to innovate. Similar how modern rocketry came out 3rd Reich' desperation.Also war is incredibly profitable for corporations, who supposedly have governments on payroll, supplying every side of conflict.>How does inflation remain controlled?If your war money printer goes brr you need to either increase circulation of goods on the market (export them internationally, such as weapons and associated supplies) or do confiscatory monetary reform (like every major power did after big war).Didn't even watch 2045.
>>289315594>black/very dark brownJust black, with it going more blue or more brown depending on the lighting/setting. It's just unnaturally shiny compared to characters with actually black hair.
>>289318283*black actual hair.
>>289318212>Conflict spurs innovation. Europe got fat and lazy on their social programs and stopped innovating, and was not ready for kinetic war with Russia.>Yes this is very true.Historically, wars can stimulate sectors of the economy, sure, but wars also:>destroy capital>consume resources>waste otherwise productive lives>create debt>reduce productivity2045 and your retarded middle schooler ass is saying as though military expenditure itself has become a magical source of economic growth.How this is handwaved away as at all sustainable is "lol AIs just found out how". The show LITERALLY STOPS talking about all that shit before the end of the third ep so you are just made to accept it. It's fucking absurd that the setting is flanderized to a point that everyone is just going along with the AE despite how the AE was characterized as in terminal decline already 15 years prior.The show then goes into kungfu superhero infinite tsukuyomi BS in earnest afterwards.It's literally just shoddy window dressing setting/loreslop at that point since the show doesn't give a shit about actually talking about any of it. It's like saying 2nd gig is a masterclass on Mishima's writings just cause the last essay in it is based on an essay of his loosely. The show actually focuses on something else. 2045 also focuses on something completely different.
>>289318416>ABLOOO BLOOO BLOOOJust confiscate % from deposits and make corporations profiting from war pay out with their own stock instead little broJust make corporations buy war bonds broDo you even /biz/?By the way, there are no bitches here that would get all wet from your raging pragmatism
>>289318283>>289315594She'll go between blue and brown in the anime, like in the manga
So does the manga get heavy like the stuff with Togasa and that girl who ultimately got herself killed at the end of the episode or Batou and the insane person skinning innocent people alive or Satou and his stalker who tried to kill and replace him, originally they were gonna leave it ambigious if he won the knife fight or not but petered out or everything with the major and Koza?the vibe I get here is that these guys know they are government dogs and do horrible things but as long as they live in comfort they don't really care and Togasa gets bullied because he's still green and has a bit of innocence in his eye about his job, and about humanity in general, since unlike them he's still full flesh and blood and not a brain in a human jar.
>>289296738the cuckfag who made it.
>>289318633>human jar
>>289318439Nigger, not even the fucking show has the wherewithal even your smoothbrained ass exhibits in actually fucking TALKING about ANY of this shit. Are we even arguing about the show at this point or are you just fucking playing defense for your gay ass economic theory?I'm saying the show is shit, and it is.You're over here saying some window dressing it doesn't even have the decency to even explore makes it worthwhile if you ignore all the rest of the sewage you have to swim through.I guess, according to your toddler tier reasoning skills, since Gundam 00 introduces a global economy reorganized around solar-energy monopolies, which is also an interesting macroeconomic premise, and that if merely introducing the premise is enough, then Gundam 00 must be one of the greatest economics anime ever made.2045 is shit and you're shit.
>>289318768Calm down lmao.

Aside from the lesbian threesome, what is the scene you're looking forward the most? I'm really looking forward to the tonal whiplash of a goofball prankster Batou showing how ruthless and violent he can be when you really piss him off. The anime-onlies are in for quite a surprise.Another one is Motoko showing a middle finger to the guy who mistakes her for a sexbot
>>289318850>The anime-onlies are in for quite a surprise.IDFK what anime-onlies you're talking about but war vet that's been through CIA shit like Sunshine in SA jungles, doesn't strike me as a goofball prankster.
>>289318863Yes, but this Batou is quite different from 95's and SAC Batou. He's a lovable goofball in the manga, but then you discover his other side when he gets really angry, torturing a criminal for information by slicing his face with a pocket knife
>>289318989idk man sounds like a normal male
>>289318815>>289290925I'm so happy that they didn't left out Motoko being a fashionista, going from tomboy aesthetics to elegant cocktail dresses seamlessly
>>289319020bro that's Ashley
>>289297360
>>289318850The lesbian threesome will either be hinted at or left out. This is censored.
>>289319341bait used to be believable
>>289318768Unlike 2045, 00's subtext doesn't build up at that premise nor does it dedicate an episode to it. The difference is, 00's economic premise is flawed and retarded, whereas 2045's is actually believable. Might as well start citing Pax Economica from Armored Core, you MGS4 loving baboon. Go jerk off to more Kojimaslop and pretend you're smart.
>>289319364Bait used to be less believable. People fell for Chad Warden back in the day.
>>289317849Missionary and doggy. Got it.
>>289297212does she groom anyone in this show
I really like the opening.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDZb57n_b90It has a sort of vibe I have hard time describing. Almost as if the scenes in it are just snippets from episodes/moments in the series etc. You don't see openings like that often these days.
Was this show animated in blender? Looks like "grease pencil" shit
>>289297374>>289297360>putting the Major in autistic mode and ordering her french fries and tendies on doordash while you play crash bandicoot with her
>>289319341already leaked. massively censored because they're massive fuckin cowards desu|https://files.catbox.moe/zjwv9o.mp4
>>289320750Shame.
Poor Togusa
>>289319123Peak realism
>>289319123I miss VFDs
>>289320750Sesbian Lex is boring anyway.>>289320993He has a wife. Zero sympathy to raiju that should explode.
>They did the "You what?!" panelMan, what a beautiful adaptation, back in 2020 I honestly couldn't even dream of this show becoming a reality
>>289296705>>289296744I just watched it and hour ago and the coloring and how fun major is made me fall in love with this episode, I felt like a kid waking up in the morning to watch cartoons, it's very sovl, definitely will read the manga after the anime >>289297103My fookin hero
>>289321026Realism would've been turning it around once more time because the original orientation was right.
>>289290808Better than modern anime slop.
>>289321647it's only like 14 chapters. You could read it in an hour or two
Kek, they actually added Batou pulling up to chief's car. Based
>>289322033>>289321627Stop shilling spoilers faggot it's not Tuesday yet.
>>289321861It's only 11 chapters, but it's better to read the manga twice, on the first read you should focus on the panels and ignore Shirow's autistic explanation notes, the second time you read them too.
>>289322089The manga is 37 years old
>>289322153it's confusing. The thing is in like 2 parts (also released in one volume - I used to borrow it from my library when I was a kid lol) there are 14 chapters of content but some chapters are like double chapters, and some chapters are very short (like 5 pages or so). It's a very Shirow book lol here it is, if you're interested: https://1manga.co/manga/koukaku-kidoutai?utm_source=default_app
>>289322278Huh, I always thought for some reason it had more chapters, I might give it a read during work then, appreciate it anon.
>>289322356>I might give it a read during work
>>289322404the modern office is usually waiting around for someone to email you or teams you something to do. At least it was at my last job.
>>2893193842045's isnt believable at all; there is no way an AI would come to the same conclusion especially with the same level of worldwide control the show itself writes 1A84 to be capable of.And it really does focus on it less than 00. 2045 has maybe an episode and a half while 00 has an entire arc surrounding one tower
Just watched a few scenes from the ep2 leaked raw. This episode gives Maaya Sakamoto an opportunity to show her actual range, from cutesy moe to tomboyish to seductive to professional. One of her girlfriends has a very cute voice too, she sounds similar to Usagi from Sailor Moon
>>289322637Damn it, forgot to remove that discord faggot's watermark
>>289322190Out of 10!
Why can't they decide whether Motoko's eyes are red or magenta?
>>289300663Her head didn't explode she puked up blood and it fell back onto her face.
>>289322637where can I see the leaked raw?
>>289322745she's literally made of synthetic materials. Changing hair colour is probably a slider in her cyberbrain software
>>289322867I can upload it somewhere, I don't want the discord leaker to have more subscribers because he's putting a huge-ass watermark at the top
>>289322404>>289322491I work from home, I get paid to wait until something happens and until then I watch anime, porn, and read manga on company payroll.And would play games too but I gotta wait until my PC finally gets an SSD card installed on the shop in a couple days)
>>289323048>he needs a shop to install SSD "card" into his PC
>>289323108Well yeah I don't know shit about hardware and I got the cash to spend, anyway I'll stop here since it already got off-topic as it is, let's talk about the anime instead, beyond what are the recommended gits to watch while waiting for more eps? I only watched the og 1995 movie
>>289323258SAC 1st season is good, Innocence is good too.
>>289322867Here you go: https://limewire. com /d/Du5Sx#TFUj0eeMJSStill watermarked but at least it's not a discord link.Also, Motoko is a screamer confirmed
I'm watchin SAC and this is ep13 where they land on abandoned sea rig to look for some terrorists who abducted tech company CEO years back.How the fuck are they blabbing back to Arasaki like this without compromising their infil? Surely terrorists have comm trackers and would know someone else is talking on the radio air aside from them.
Built for the modern audience, or hijacked by the modern audience?
>>289324266It was built for the 80s audience.
>>289324266I don't care. I like the show.t watched all* GItS anime as it was coming out since 1997*except 2045 shit
>>289324266I don't give a single fuck about what some retarded trannies on twitter are doing.
>>289324266For future use, is there any manga panel that unequivocally confirms Motoko was born a human female?
>>289324361And we already knew it was bound to happen, at least those of us who read the source material.Just wait until the trooners find out that Batou puts Motoko's brain into a male body by mistake, Motoko will become a new trans icon for them
>>289324504we know she was a girl involved in a plane crash where the only part of her left to save was her brain and a bit of her spine lol. There's basically nothing left of the original her.
>>289324694chromosomes are
>>289320750once the bd releases they will be butt naked and everything will be alright
So what did terrorists do to this CEO daughter for 16 years that she looks 80 at 26 y/o? Is this SAC episode fanfic or is there confirmation in manga? I can imagine it wasn't pleasant.
>>289324815I mean I assume she was born a little girl. Why would a bunch of cyberpunk scientists put a near fatally wounded boy in a female body ?
manga major a cute.
>>289324694Only is SAC. We know nothing about Motoko's life before joining Section 9 and the manga suggests that even the name "Motoko Kusanagi" is an alias
>>289324906
>>289324266
>>289296947what is that expression trying to convey? is she embarrased?
>>289325071>GUNUNU, I'LL GET YOU!Kind of frustration, I guess.
>>289325071Her face turned red from anger, autist-kun
>>289320750I mean what did you expect they can't show a finger going in a butthole on tv
>>289323493thanks
>>289325071>ghosthacker had her dead to rights. Saved by her bad audio implant causing interference and letting her regain control. >fell ass backwards into another chance of victory completely on a whim Major pouts when she's outclassed. By all means this dude should've killed her lol
>>289325138what's the point of living in a era without cable tv if the streaming services suck even more dick. Why even adapt this so close to manga if they're gonna remove all the good shit?
>>289325245>what's the point of livingdon't then, go on
>>289325195luck is a skill
Oh no, a commie
>>289325195Motoko gets her ass kicked several times, in both the manga and adaptations. That's why nobody calls her a Mary Sue, she's the opposite of that archetype
>>289297034They live in cyberpunk mexico.
>>289323493damn, I thought we would get an artwork by a famous artist at the end of each episode but we just got this hack again
>>289325397I like the one in SAC where a giant nameless mook comes around the corner and punches her so hard from above he breaks the floor beneath her. Just a giant robot Neanderthal pounding the major into the ground like a loose nail lol. Has to get bailed out by a Tachikoma
>>289325427Well, looks like Ilya-kun got his sentence dramatically reduced, comrade.
>>289325427we may get an artwork by the SAC/Naruto artist then
>>289325467they were on protection detail, she could've hacked in half a second flat but didn't had time to sparebut you're right, e.g. opponent with closed wireless connections would fuck her up
>>289325427depiste 2045 being unforgivable, that dude used to be one of us lol. Old school /ic/ poster
>>289320750>>289298031Any chance this shit will be fixed in a later release?
What will the lesbians say when they find out major has a boyfriend?
>>289325757Their nails. You think there's monogamy against cybersluts?
>>289325757they'll jerk off to the LGD porn I draw of her
>>289325712No chance.
>>289325587>tracedchecks out
>>289325757if they are smart they will ignore that detail for this adaptation
>>289325943they can't it's a major plot point in one of the chapters. I guess they could gender swap him and get backlash from the other direction
>>289326005It's hardly a major plot point if he's shown once in one chapter for a joke and then never again.
>>289296041she's watching a star wars trailer
>>289326005>>289326092He's in, he's been shown in a couple of frames and there's Batou reacting to them breaking up in one of the early teasers
>>289326092He tells his boss about their relationship and it drags them both into a fight because they both work for different sections of the government that turn on each other. There's a scene where Motoko is given the choice to kill him and wounds him instead but it's a nasty fight and she barely survives it
Opening is pretty comfy. when is the full version gonna be released?
>>289325757>What will the lesbians say when they find out major has a boyfriend?And what does that have to do with anything?Major is canon pansexual/bislut type anyway. Not a lesbian in slightest, even in SAC her only relations were with a guy and shota.
Do you guys think that Gunsmith Cats Burst anime could be made after this?
>>289326458I welcome this tapping into old source materials, as modern creativity becomes increasingly bankrupt. They should do Dirty Pair reboot too.
>>289326592Why is she so thirsty?
Do you think there's a chance they'll adapt the "It was the Jews all along" plot point?
>>289326646
>>289326592>no deep butthole finger while the Major moans and whines like a bitch in heat into another whore's oiled up tits, bouncing on her hand until she cums all over them bothman...
>>289320750what do you mean we don't get full uncensored penetration???? wtf is this world coming to.....
>>289326905right?
>>289326592the vagina bone shadow is a nice detail
>>289326940enjoy it while it lasts anon, it's all your fucking getting
>>289320750cute
>>289326985one of the trailers teased a shower scene. We may get some material there
>>289321462>Sesbian Lex is boring anyway.Yeah cause thrusting a stick into a hole for 5 minutes till it cums is so exciting as movement and sex goes to see animated.
>>289327119At least there's a stick instead of two holes.
>>289327140You can always have a stick even if you are a girl which never gonna be soft and fail you.
>>289327083What's a ghost anyway?
>>289316411No, anon, the average movie gower can't define things, you gotta mohtohkoh hear people tell her what ghost is 3 times at least
>>289327199>fake stickOkay bro.>>289327256Consciousness/self-awareness. Most of the AI made by humans aren't conscious or aware. I assume just a development of LLMs like we have now. Reactionary to environment but there's no awareness of existence or actions.
>Damn bro, you only got 10 INT
>>289327256It's like your sense of individuality. In Psychology you'd call it your ego. In religion you might call it the soul. Your ability to make judgements, have preferences, express yourself, the part of you that ends when the rest of the world begins.
Posting it again but how many of you ever caught onto the fact that Fukami, Togusa's old police buddy with the birthmark on his face who gives him the interceptor intel in ep 4, assassinates Nanao-A in ep 6, and ostensibly kills Serano in the final scene of 1st gig, was the OG laughing man, or at least whose blackmail Aoi ran into and decided to copy?
>>289327256The "ghost" is your actual sentience. In GiTSverse there is no question about philosophical zombies, the soul and consciousness is something that has been identified and quantified.
>>289327608I thought he was trying to hide the intel from him? when he comes into the office to see him working he's like "What are you doing?" trying to interrogate him almost. And then goes for his jacket like he's going for his gun and Togusa's buddy runs out in a hurry
So Major is basically immortal as long she's gonna find new cyberbrain to upload her own ghost?
>>289327731yes. also coming soon IRL
>>289327727That's Yamaguchi, the guy who dies crashing his car on the highway. Fukami is the dude in the diner scene
>>289327731I don't remember any cases of natural Ghost being uploaded into blank synthetic cyberbrain successfully. Except for illegal damaging ghost dubbing operations that result in shitty copy and fuck up the original or outright kill it in the process. In 1995 movie, the situation is different after she merged with 2501, an inherently information-based life form with its own Ghost.
>>289327791oh my b
>>289327788One is already fucked another is preparing to get fucked over Taiwan. But we might see WW3/WW4 from GItS if Xi tries to de-escalate through escalation by sending tac nukes at US fleets.
Do people in GitS-world still have jobs with AI being so widespread?
>>289328057Their general mass-produced AI are cucked as a precaution. Human with nanomachine cyberbrain can basically do all the same jobs as cucked AI, perhaps even better. They've also lost like half humanity to world wars so there is no shortage of jobs.
>>289328131>They've also lost like half humanity to world wars so there is no shortage of jobs.Maybe we SHOULD have a couple more world wars...?
>>289328191We just might. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5pEzgjS_es
>>289326484Gunsmith Cats, Dirty Pair, AD Police, a new Cutie Honey, anime could be saved.
Reminds me of someone...
>>289328904>new Cutie HoneyYes, please.
>>289327818>seething about dubs out of nowhereYou will never be Japanese.
>>289329416Is this a joke? "Ghost Dubbing" is illegal ghost copying operation in GItS setting.
>>289329460I think he was trying to make a joke, yea
>>289329540I was hurt about never being Japanese part.
>>289329337Watch the Anno movie if you haven't seen it, certified kino.
>>289327311Matt Damon said Netflix requests “[reiterate] the plot three or four times in the dialogue because people are on their phones while they’re watching.”
>>289329763>Anno movieWhich one?
>>289329763Thanks, I will.
>>289325557He has a name anon, I suggest you use it so newfags learn about Tetsuya Nishio the GOAT
