>tfw too stupid to understand Shirow's ghost in the shell
Which fetishes is the major NOT into?
i've enjoyed my time with the major this season, it's made up for a lot of other disappointments
Is there a next season after this?
>>290801972Agreed. She's been a ray of sunshine and police brutality (despite not being actually part of the police)
Now that we all agree this is the worst anime of the season, what went wrong?
>>290801972Same, she was great fun
>>290802384headpats for the major!
I enjoyed it. But compared to the infinite greatness of Yani Neko the legacy of Ghost in the Shell is worthless.
>>290802436No one expected that show to come out of nowhere and took the world by the storm.
>>290802180Actually I will be voting for it whenever possible when the end of year polls roll around
>>290802180Just imagine their faces when they see they lost to shitting cats.
>>290801854It's better to be dumb because it makes you cuter.
This show was kinda of a bore outside of the Major's massive ass.
>>290800556Don't these names also appear in Pandora? I think at least one of them does, haven't read the manga since almost a year ago, I do remember Ppseidon tho since its a major plot point.Also, I think I've heard that pandora mentions Aramaki once but not really sure
>>290804650This bit probably does wonders in Twitter You should go back there.
>>290801854What was op image?
>>290802180It isn't the worst. It isn't even the most over hyped. But it certainly wasn't the savior of anime "everyone" thought it was going to be.
>>290805053But I get rrrrrupee for posting on /a/, saar. Saaru wants more positive thing about its animes, so I am here glazing
>>290805130Yeah, this gimmick doesn't work on /a/. There's no culture of schizo posting about Indians everywhere.If you can't fit in, don't immigrate.
>>290805113Some ugly girls.
>>290805130This but they use bots.
>Picture of the Whitman standing heroically in a crowdPersonally I think the best ghost in shell is GITS, better than the movies and anything else in the franchise
>>290805181Hilarious how you outed yourself as a newfag crossie cuck yourself. And you're too retarded to find out why.>in b4 this 15 year old zoomie mutt claims he's been here since 2003 [sic]
>>290805271Trying too hard.
Saito and Paz actually do stuff in SAC but what the fuck is Bomas role? He doesn’t do ANYTHING in any adaptation
>>290805301He didn't even get a episode in the 2nd season my head cannon is a he is a former sex criminal and the major found him cyberraping kids and reformed him
>>290805301I always thought he just suffered from looking like Batou and Batou just being cooler
What I never understood about the show is who was the laughing man? like was it that kid? Is that kid even real? Or was it that dude who tricked them with the sex doll but got shot in the eye in the apartment? I've rewatched those episodes 4-5 times and fed the transcript into Chat gpt but nothing definitive yet
>>290805485There is no laughing man.
>>290805270I think SAC is such its own product that it is hard to compare, but the new anime is better than Oshii's films.
Getting tired of these ghoranti this and that over and over when you can just say israel/mossad once or twice in the manga. Weird censorship.
This series has less stakes than a regular isekai.
gits 2026 is for the kinds of 'men' who listen & believe all women (especially when they say voices told them to kill they kids)
Turns out only like 4 episodes actually mattered
>>290805301In this version Bouma does some stuff that the Oshii movie gave to Batou, e.g. shoot the anti-tank missile at the spider tank.I cannot recall Paz doing ANYTHING this time around.Saitou is also pretty weak, I don't think he's even a sniper in this version.
>>290801923I want Motoko to fuck a woman while in her new male host body and develop a fetish for it afterwards.
>>290806406Saito has a chapter in 1.5, but Bouma and Paz are still basically unused.
>>290802180I haven't watched all the slop this season, so it's possible there were/are worse anime airing. But, as far as /a/-popular anime goes this is easily the worst. I even watched "foidslop fake history"-dugaar and Muslopu Tensei, and The Gits is still the worst anime of this season for me.
>>290806693Name 3 good shows.
>>290806766The WireTwin PeaksLegend of the Galactic Heroes
>>290806785Just awful. The Wire is just commie shit where they invent some black future doctors and engineers to cry about.
>>290806693>foidslopGo back to /pol/, tourist
>>290801854I feel like I understood it a little more than when I first read the manga, but a lot of that understanding also comes from a ton of non-manga sources (mostly the SAC Solid State movie) at least for the major's motivations for doing the fusion dance.
>>290807451I think the anime did make the manga much easier to understand in that with how much text the manga likes to dump on you at once, its easy for your eyes to glaze over. Where in the show you can just passively absorb information.
Well if this is it, I have to say that this is a soild 8.5/10 animeA great way to show the original GITS as it always was and a great companion piece to SAC and the movie.I definitely had a lot of fun watching this.
>>290805381Impossible, he got infected by the individual 11 virus i.e he's /ourguy/>>290805403>>290806406I read the manga before watching any anime adaptations and I thought Batou just shaved his head sometimes for most of it. I think it was when I read 1.5 that it finally clicked boma was a different guy
>>290802597sauce?
>>290805053I start chuckling every time I see the name HamonBeat so it looks like it's working>>290805130stay
>>290807423What version is that on the left of 20 'toko? I recognize all the others
>>2908082692045 I think.
>>290808251https://x.com/4awH8/status/2097340985961554283
>>290802180>Now that we all agree this is the worst anime of the seasonThat is Clevatess S2 what a fucking letdown.
>>290806693I see you are also a man of culture.
RIP Major's body, it was a hot one.Cute nude virtual major butt.Nice jiggle.Another nice shot of the major's butt this time with a little underboob.Major sits with her legs wide open. The major is even more 80's than before.An english jazz ED? Quite surprising.Were they hinting to maybe another season at the end there?I enjoyed it. No endcard this episode though.
>20 mins of technoschizobubble transhumanism episodeZZZZZZZZZZ holy shit bro who cares about a mangaka's regurgitated shit takes on this topic? know your place faggot
wait this was the last episode?did they really end it with 10 mins of an AI yapping about existentialism?LMAO
>>290810603The opposite of existentialism.
>>290810603It was a data lifeform yapping about why the major should have sex with her/him/xim were you not paying attention
>>290810603The message was that clankers don't have rights.
I didn't realize this the first time reading the manga, but I can see how Shirow ended up writing what he does now when the GITS first volume ended in essentially an elaborate sex scene between major and the puppetBravo Shirow
I liked it. That's all that matters.
Major headpats
>>290802384How come this is the same person that is a supreme coomer? Women aren't really like that
>>290806968>When the child has to look up the show and quickly come up with an "attack" on the spot.The equivalent of saying "Serial Experiments Lain is just feminist shit where some little girl goes girl boss mode and kicks the asses of grown adult federal agents."
>>290806970Ah and I didn't even notice the perfect irony how then the other child does this. Simply perfect. Interacting with Saruslop enjoyers really is like being a gigachad intruding into a bunch of Down syndromes drooling over their sandcastle (and the sandcastle is just a lego set their mum bought them and put in the middle of their sandbox).
>>290810063English jazz ED is a banger that caught me by surprise. I thought it was a cover of something but I think it's original
>>290810603not really
>>290806096Motoko would do that to her kids too
WHO??
show is over..
Glad the show didn't get any hate from behenchods for using AI.
>>290812456the Ghorantl face guy who tried to kill Motoko in the boyfriend episode
>>290805301>>290806406Bouma also hit-and-runs the Section 1 executive off camera.
It was a good show. I look forward to any fanfic shit they want to do and hope it has better music.
it wouldve been better if they cut the puppet master parts short, I literally fell asleep
>>290806406>I cannot recall Paz doing ANYTHING this time around. Paz investigates Motoko's apartment after Souma blows it uphe says "she stood here and shot her gun"that's literally his only spoken part I rememberI'm not convinced there were more sniper dude was in a couple shots talking with someone from a carI say "talking" but it didn't have any audio of him speaking
What exactly was going on with Super Spartan? Was it actually a government brainwashing facility gone rogue or not? If it wasn't, why did Aramaki have them take it out and seize the brainwashing devices?
>>290816077It was meant to be a labor and indoctrination camp in the standard sense, but was going to far in using brainwashing devices that are not illegal and personally distasteful to Motoko. She went in because she was pissed off about all the politicking and decided to break everything regardless of the consequences.Officially the case resulted in a few politicians resigning and being condemned for being NATO agents, but Motoko's crew were still going to be horse collared for going above their station.Aramaki had a 4D chess thing going on where he put proved that proto-S9 was really skilled and that they could handle internal political disputes and crimes without leaking info. Useful for the PM and other high level politicians. While he also kept that info from Motoko and her team so that they thought they were basically out of a job at the end for going above the standard legal system. Only for Aramaki to swoop in with info that he got them all an even better deal than they expected, earning their loyalty.Aramaki was testing Motoko's group's mettle and their willingness to get the job done and do the 'right' thing regardless of personal costs, and she passed.
