>GLITCH WITCH shares both the world and timeline of THE GHOST IN THE SHELL. On April 10, 2029, while Motoko Kusanagi and Aramaki are preparing to establish Public Security Section 9 (commonly known as “Ghost in the Shell”), a series of incidents erupt across the United States. As the FBI, AI researchers, and the military investigate, they witness a fateful clash: the battle between Project 2501, the “Puppet Master”—with whom Motoko Kusanagi merges at the end of THE GHOST IN THE SHELL—and a Solomon-class AI holding the fate of humanity in its hands!>Written and character-designed by Shirow Masamune himself, with art by Naoki Azuma (The Immortal Kamikaze Trooper, Keishicho Zoshi), this next-generation cyberpunk action saga directly intersects with THE GHOST IN THE SHELL!!Posting the Raws. 2 chapters
Starting off with a bit of GITS.
Unfortunately, even in the future it seems California and Texas both exist.
Here's our new girl. I'm interested to see what type of sociopath she turns out to be.
Fun protagbut where's P-2501? What is she up to?
>>290824220I'm assuming this band of misfits are going to stumble face first into its shenanigans at some point.
>>290824164just stick to dumping and don't shove in retarded comments.
>>290824251Kill yourself.
Its nice to see that she's expressive.
>>290824306same, I'm liking herdespite the BOOOORING hair
The number one way you can tell Shirow isn't the artist are the thick thighs and ass.>>290824328The number two way you can tell is that the MC doesn't have floofy hair.
>>290824304>>290824251He's right. Dump and stfu.
>>290824367He's wrongmore comments pls
It looks just like today.
HEAVY girl....
>>290824207Vivian Vales. Seems to be a Hispanic last name.>>290824267Cartman.>>290824289Harley Nazal??
ROFL
>>290824494Vivian huhwe're doing arthurian stuff now, interestinghe musta seen Avalon
>>290824304Hang yourself, now.
>>290824494>CartmanMight be more like Catman or Cutman.>Harley NazalMaybe Harry Nazar rather?
>>290824494>>290824595Thanks for the info.
>>290824565Roflcopter, even
Chapter 2, or Chapter 1 Part 2.
>>290824593A dump without comments is like an angel without wings.
>>290824073>>290824097Not goofy enough
>>290824654The thing about comments is they have to be witty and selectful and the majority of posters can't really pull that off. Just stick to no comments, nobody will fault you for that.
>>290824030i have got fatigue of the word witch that's now on the level of the word isekai
>>290824654a kiwi, thent. Mamoru
>>290824711>I'm tired of pretending to be fatigued when I'm really just butthurtok
>>290824711He's been sitting on this name for over a decade. I'm just happy its finally out at all. Even if "Witch" in a title is pretty common these days.
Harapan?
>>290824792the robot looks like something we can build yesterday, minus the apparent laser eyes
>>290824818Given how America has looked so far, I don't think it is the world's tech leader in this timeline.
>>290824792I really don't like Shirow's newfound (15-ish years but still) obsession with dogon culture designsit's just so fucking clunky looking compared to his 90s robot designs
>>290824862POCKET SAAANDthis Wayne Static looking guy is resourceful
Fat bitch.
>>290824845Insect robots are unbeatable in aesthetics.
Is the main girl Ronne/Mokoto?
>>290824935no, this is before she starts duplicating herselfVivian Valesor Vallès, possiblyor Valles if it's like cl. Malles
A battle well-fought.
So main girl works for Megatech and gets recruited by the FBIMegatech will soon work for S9and the bad guys work for Poseidon.and in the anime (and Pandora) Poseidon name their shit after goetic demonsand P-2501 will fight an AI called SolomonWhat can we infer from this?
Necessary English.
Very lewd.
>>290825236So is Vivian the eponymous Glitch Witch or is it this corporate bitch?
Thats all I got. Many people are probably brand new to this IP. But some of us have been very interested in what Shirow was planning to do with this storyline for a long time. If you're curious, this is most of what we had for Glitch Witch for a long time.>>290825093Nakamura was sorta working with the US, wasn't he? So I guess 2501 is going to battle Solomon, a Japanese AI, and in some way save America? And probably gain consciousness from it.
>>290825297How do we know Solomon is Japanese again?
>>290825297I hope so! Do your best, P-2501!>>290825290Vivian is a witch/fairy in arthurian lore (a good one, mind you) so probably the protag.
>>290825297>P-2501 NicochanShe's a 2501? And the Glitch Witch??
>>290825355Poseidon is a Japanese company.
>>290825355we don't "know", but it would make sense given the fact that Poseidon is a Japanese corporation, and given the fact that they like goetic naming conventions.You know, demons from the lesser key of Solomon. I mean I guess you'd expect that more from the Israeli but that's what Shirow seems to be going with for Poseidon.
>>290825297>Pettanko 2501HAHno wonder she went for a big-boobed body when she got the chance
>>290825391I wouldn't put a lot of stock in that right now because that image is very old and the plot has likely changed substantially since then. Vivian's character design is quite different.
>>290824356Gay as fuck earrings
>>290825689He's just a Bible-believing red-blooded American Christian.
>>290825513True, she looks a lot less swarthy now.Is Vivian a dyke?
>>290824164>>290824137Are these host bodies for P-2501 ?Or are they investigating her?
>>290825764As such, he believes in AI-generated shrimp Jesus facebook memes from Bangladesh.
>>290825835From the mouths of lambs, shall the gospel be sung.Nazmul is the modern day profit and I send him Google Play cards every week as payment for his preaching.
>>290825796I wonder if the new 2501 backstory from the anime will tie in somehow.
>>290826211Given the fact that this pic shows her in a humanoid body before the escape, then probably yeah.>>290825297>gamer girl>brat>flat-chested>likes memes>great thighsI like her already
>>290826211I bet we'll get a version of it. Maybe some Lee (Poseidon guy) action like the anime hinted at.
