>>290812004science saru wanted to cultivate some "anime credit" after all their cartoon workdidn't work imo
>>290812004>>"yeah i'll merge with this ai because uhh.... j-just because OKAY!?!?!"You didn't get it.
>>290812037well yeah that's my whole point. the anime is heavy on visuals and light on story.shit just kinda happens because it looks cool for the most part.other interpretations of the manga are properly written.
>>290812004Is a series where nothing matters, the author is only good at drawing.
>>290812004>it turned out to be so incredibly half-baked. they spent so much time on animation that they forgot they actually had to write something.yeah its a faithful adaption of the manga
>hfw (You) propose
>>290812004>Not watching stand alone complex.
It's vibes basedYou simply can't feel it
>>290812004well, all I wanted was a faithful adaption of the manga, which I got up to 95%, so I'm satisfied
>>290812004>half-bakedThat was the original full baked recipe. Fags complain about editors and censors but this is what not having any gets you
>>290813208>and censorsneck yourself. censors wouldn't had added or fleshed out the original manga. fucking retard commie
>>290812027shut up chud, you can't name a more hard working honest and intelligent studio than Science Saru, everyone agrees that DanDaDan was a banger that speaks for our generation and Jaadugar is the smartest anime of the last 10 years, really though provoking up there with Orb
>>290812004>>paz, bourma, saito? who are those guys?Tbf these guys are underutilized compared to the main three even in SAC.
Oshitfags still seething about new GitS? Nobody but reddit likes your pseud basedlenial anti-anime slop.
>>290813598>>290813888So this is the kind of vermin that liked nu-gits?
>>290812004I don't get the 'original' fags, it doesn't lookrike original at all, they confirmed shit inspired by pixar's story-shading (for the love of god, please, god, my lord in heaven, why? even /co/fags wouldn't do that) and it doesn't lookrike original at all, Just soulless degenerate crap, might be the biggest plebfilter of my life imoGod I fucking hate modern world
>>290813917its a good faithful adaption of an ok manga that had some good ideas. the movie and SAC expanded on the manga
>>290813948>>290812004Trannyrunner & this one is the worst Cyberpunk I actually finished and I simply gave up all hopes from this genre
>>290812004>filtered by baka Motokolmao
>>290812004Character development is a spook. It focused on what mattered rather than becoming a slice of life about every person that appeared in the story.
>>290813973Edgerunners and GitS(all of it except the bad ones like Arise and 1995) are all objectively great cyberpunk anime. I shudder to think what someone with shit taste like yours considers good cyberpunk.
>>290812004>i heard you wanted some protagonists, here's a bunch of random cops with 0 background information.>paz, bourma, saito? who are those guys? anyways here's more batou exposition>oh you actually wanted to know who all those antagonists were that batou was talking about? LMAO>"yeah i'll merge with this ai because uhh.... j-just because OKAY!?!?!"You literally just described 1995 movie, retard. SAC was mid btw
>>290814211>I shudder to think what someone with shit taste like yours considers good cyberpunkNothing, they said clearly they don't like the genre
>>290814211GITS 1995 is good when you cut out Oshii's content to the bare necessary minimum.
>>290814436kek
>>290814550>boy meets girlCan you at least pretend to be familiar with the topics discussed?
>>290814595Damn, nigga. You couldn't even hold out for one post.
>>290812122your point is that you're stupid and don't pay attention? good point, now please fuck off
>>290814550He apparently thinks Innocence is better than 1995 so maybe he's not so bad.
>>290814607Innocence is actually good. Oshii's miasma that he spreads onto every project he's given creative freedom over, actually works well in it compared to the 1995 film. The much maligned quote dumping works in it, for example. Because it plays into the 'everyone is a doll' style. Everyone speaks in regurgitated quotes like a doll with a voicebox. While the 1995 film is kinda a lesser version of the original manga, Innocence actually works as a project.
>>290814550this.
>>290814595How is it not anime?Do you know what's the definition of "anime"?
>>290814639>While the 1995 film is kinda a lesser version of the original manga, Innocence actually works as a project.Not really sure I'm getting what makes Innocence exempt when it's an adaptation of Robot Rondo with some bits from 1.5.
>>290814576esl moments
>>290815024Mostly that it uses that source material to tell a sufficiently different story compared to the intent of the original. The change with Kim from Batou's darker twin to a totally different character that conveys a different message to the viewer, is something that sets it apart from the original enough to comfortably stand alone.
>>290814436>Wojakshit on /a/Dead board lmao
>>290812004Zoomer 3rdies finding /a/nime was a mistake.
>>290815062I'd bet my bottom dollars half the brownies on this board didn't even make it past grade school
>>290815145Tone down the racism, buddy. Many of the greatest warriors who debunk anti-The Ghost in the Shell hate on /a/ are from India. India loves the 2026 anime.
>>290812004Anon it's times to realize that the original manga was mid as fucks. It was always carried by the artstyle. Shirow did better series but he is not a very good writer.
>>290815212The only people who hate nu-gits are the 1995 fellating jeets and mentally ill trannies
>>290815212If you were alive in 90s, you would know that the only reason why 1995 GITS got "popular" was because it's one of those "you don't get it, you weren't there" moments. Western manga & anime fans were at the time in a state of sensory deprivation, there was so little content available, and they were mocked by everybody for watching weird porno- cartoons for kids (sic).A bitter GenXer would praise GITS with passion of an al quaeida fanatic praying to his allah. You weren't allowed to said a single bad thing about it. It was a hostile action towards the fandom and popularization of the anime. A chill millennial who already had an access to a dozen of titles acknowledges the superb animation and aesthetics, but also sees the flaws. It was planned to be an award- winning export good for the West with all consequences. It tried to hard to be "serious", character design was a middle ground between the manga and "realistic" western animation, the writing is so "deep" that it deserves to be brutally cut. Cults built by easily impressed GenXers won't survive the test of time.
>>290815396>jeet tranny projecting both if his demographics onto the other sideSaruslop is for troons and jeets. 1995 is for White men only.
>>290815462>retarded esl can't even spell correctlyLol. 1995 is exclusively enjoyed by subhuman ssri addicted trannies since they can self insert into a man faced ugly emotinless Motoko
>>290815462A kubrickfaggot has seen a 1 anime for normies and thinks he's a fucking arbiter elegantiae, lmao

>>290812004>it turned out to be so incredibly half-bakedYeah, turns out Masamune was way more interested in jerking off, than writting a coherent story. So the show is pretty manga-accurate.
>>290816090Is there any actual reason to think there are many jeets here now though? All I ever see is random accusations often going both ways.
I liked itBatou the real highlight
>>290812004The funny moment were the cicadas making noise and then some guy sufferiing in the heat tells them to shut up. And it their singing was just like the usual anime stock background noise.
>>290816172Even mainstream libshit websites admit the Internet got infested with Indians during COVID-19. In example, the Muslimshoku season 3 getting downvoted by Hindu jeets (Muslim jeets like it still) on imdb. Even google fact checked that as real.
>>290815119Wojakshit is ok when it's correct, lurk more faggot
>>290812004>i went into this with high hopes. i expected it to be as good as SAC, but with more humor.The moment you knew it was a close adaptation of the manga you should've known that would not be possible.
This show was pretty fun. Not as good as SAC but definitely better than any other gits adaptation. I think you have to be very brown to genuinely dislike it.
>see nothing but trannies praising this garbage on twitter, youtube and ig>/a/ pretends you are a troon if you don't like it
>>290813945If they find anime icky why would they watch an anime movie?
>>290816377Why are you on twitter and ig? Are you brown?
I find that the manga and gits '26 do not have this structure:ExpositionRising ActionClimaxFalling ActionResolutionIt is a strange work. It's as if it was not meant to tell a traditionally structured story but rather a series of exposition dumps of speculation regarding the structure of the universe with some episodic events surrounding characters in a near-future world added as a hook.
>this thread Is /a/ finally turning into /v/? What's with low quality shitposting?
>>290816522And in manga form it works.
>>290816550I've seen the hand-posting fairy do his schtick elsewhere. There was a thread in which he had the palm of his hand facing the camera instead and several anons were appalled at the discoloration of the skin (evidence of severe malnutrition or whatever). Anyway, yes this is perfectly fine so long as page impressions go up :^)
>>290816522https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kish%C5%8Dtenketsu
>>290812004The pacing in this anime was so fucking bad. Maybe the manga was better because you have more time to read the exposition, but having to pause the fucking video everytime they wanted to spew massive amounts of information, or those year long time skips mid episode was absolutely retarded to have in the anime.
>>290816522Yeah, it isn't a conventional narrative.It's a fly on the wall experience following the Super Cops for some of the time, and an exploration of synthetic intelligence and it's link to the soul the rest of the time.
>>290816661this is what happens when you adapt one work into another medium basically 1:1Sometimes it just doesn't work due to the differences in those mediums.
>>290816522It's basically an improvised series of short stories, with a loose plot formed around.If you're familiar with the older sort of magazine science fiction and the 'fix-up' (e.g. Asimov's I, Robot or Foundation for perhaps the most famous examples) the style will be more familiar.The way it's dialogue-driven and often alludes to characters and factions that have a role in the plot but never appear 'onscreen' is also part of this style.
>>290816893I, Robot is a good comparison because you have that loose structure of each of the laws, but then the digressions are basically independent of one another. But you have a linear timeline all the same.
>>290816661the thing is that there's no reason to pause because all of the information is meaningless bullshit that leads to nothing.they have these massive exposition dumps and in the end it's all irrelevant. the dialogue is white noise.
>>290819041What was white noise? All of the major exposition dumps were very relevant for the episode they were in.
>>290819897I think he means they were a bunch of technobabble nonsense. If anything forget Eva, the GITS manga was the true 2deep4u Japanese work.
>>290819897It seemed topical but incoherent.Felt like listening to some tatted up white woman yap about kundalini energy and vibrating crystal chakras.
>>290814075They're gonna combine?
>>290820332As above, so below. The universe's shape and structure is a fractal pattern. We should emulate this fractal pattern in our systems and intellectual forces in order to achieve the best stability and durability. That is all there is to it.
>>290820332>>290820701I mean yeah it's literally bog-standard New Age esoterica, complete with a bit of pseudoscientific flavoring to make it gel better with the sci-fi setting. Plenty of science fantasy settings have that, they just never bother getting into the weeds of how it works.Oshii saw that stuff went "Okay, but what if you could never tell if that stuff is for real ? Could you fake it? Would it matter if it's fake? Would it be worth it? " that's why there's a shitload of symbolic imagery but nothing that's provably supernatural in the film, and also why the tactical/political plot itself doesn't reflect those ideas like the plot of the manga does.
>>290819897they make all these references to conspiracies and organizations and countries that are all just loose threads in the end.the antagonists barely qualify as characters,i don't remember any of their names or motivations.the only thing memorable about them is that they look weird.it's a collection of random freaks for motoko to kill.

>>290813600Did Boma even get a focus episode? Paz at least got the episode where he may have been killed and replaced by his ex-girlfriend, and Saito got sniping stuff to do fairly regularly.
>>290824401What's the point of wearing a wetsuit if you're already a full body cyborg?
>>290826406This is the alternative:
>>290826406The wetsuit decreases friction.
>>290826476Motoko would want MORE friction on her snatch, not less
>>290826326the nuke episode.i don't get why they refuse to utilize half of section 9.these guys might as well not exist.
>>290826326The closest he gets iirc is in second gig he gets infected with individual 11 while looking into it, and later on he helps the bomb squad disable the "refugee's" nuke
>>290832149i really thought they would do something cool with borma when section 9 disbanded and those invisible cops were tailing him.
>>290812004That's Shirowshit almost unfiltered for ya. It lacks more technobabble shit, but whatever.
>>290812037>>290814604>say that something is deep and call people who supposedly "don't get it" stupid>don't elaborate at allYears fucking pass by, but GitSfags remain the same, kek.
>>290833243Everything the Puppetmaster talks about has been experienced firsthand by Motoko previouslythe need for adaptationthe need for diversity and redundancythe need for sacrifices in order to survivethe relationships between the system and its componentsthe fact that only stupid AIs try to take overetcetcall that shit has happened to her firsthand, therefore she knows the AI already agrees with her on just about everything that matters to her. Also now that she has proof that the spirit exists, she knows her soul will persist even if her mind changes and that her position within the karmic web is what defines her just as much as the contents of her person.There you go how's that?
>>290833403maybe if the show actually conveyed that properly, you would have a point.also the karmic web shit was completely retarded.
>>290834142You have eyes but cannot see Mount Tai. Its over.
