>>24857669
For that to make any sense: You need to compare something fresh to that era to something fresh this era

Maybe something like:

Kasumi Yasuda is a Japanese manga artist best known for Fool Night, a dark dystopian sci-fi series serialized in Shogakukan's Big Comic Superior since November 2020. Yasuda also created the earlier work Denpa Seinen

Awards: Nominated for the Next Manga Award and ranked high on the Kono Manga ga Sugoi! list.

Japan has long suffered from a strong yen.
Only countries capable of self-sufficiency in fuel resources and food desire a strong currency. Since Japan cannot be self-sufficient in these areas, it must first earn foreign currency; however, a strong currency disadvantages exports, making it difficult to earn that foreign currency.
Japan today is a comfortable place to live, with very low rates of unemployment, crime, and suicide.

Nah, bottom one is fun as hell.
And I'm saying this as an absolute fan of the 1995 animated feature by Mamoru Oshii.
This one is just closer in tone to the manga, it mixes comedy with complex political plot and pretty violent action.

I really liked that it doesn't take death and killing lightly at all, unlike most (soï-written) fiction nowadays.
Bad guys, even henchmen, often choose to surrender rather than be killed, for example.
I also love that they made Batou both the most grounded and kindest member of the team, with Kusanagi frequently being a sociopathic asshole.

This is because you spent all of your time in Shibuya (full of tourist traps so locals don't go there anymore), Ginza (everything is too expensive due to inflation plus the weak yen so only rich foreigners go there), Roppongi (same problem as Ginza except artificially priced out by the Yakuza), and maybe Kyoto (over-tourism due to the effects of the yen carry trade).

The 1995 movie is overrated as fuck. It is sterile, bleak and boring. Every other adaptation of the IP did it better, yes even that one.

>>24857707
I rewatched it recently just to refresh my memory, and the 1995 movie was pretty much style over substance.
All the important topics are only brushed upon very superficially to try and somehow rush through it in just 80 minutes. There's like a single line in it that shows Motoko questions if she's even human (and explains why she decides to go for the puppet master's deal), but it's gone over so quickly you don't even realize the significance.

I read the manga. The original manga isn't so much like the first movie or Stand Alone Complex. The manga has chibi comedy panels with the exaggerated comedic expressions, and the police chief looks more like a monkey. Motoko is a bit more sadistic, a bit more cowboy. In the anime she is more ice cold professional pushing to the limit.

why is everything getting worse
technology is supposed to make things better
how come there was progress in culture up to a certain point and then it just dropped off a fucking cliff

cartoons in the 30s, 50s, 70s, 80s, 90s were great, you wouldn't say the 90s were better than the 50s, but there was development and movement in culture and both had components that are admirable

you see that across music, art, movies, all media
all technology

then you get to the 00s and culture drops off a fucking cliff
you get to the 10s and technology has way more things wrong with it than right
