Don't worry major, I have your back with my bespoke italian low boreaxis revolver
>>64523468Fucking fleshbag normie
the whole point of his character was to exemplify how normal humans are outdated and just kept around as pets for fun, similar to his revolver.This showcases how their entire society has become a slave to technology, where you must sacrifice your humanity to become a robotranny in order to even put bread on the table for your family.
>>64523519And yet his cartridge flexibility let him get a GPS-tracking round in a getaway vehicle (might be a SAC episode, can't remember). Good shit all around though, early GITS was the GOAT.
>>64523519The jihad cannot come soon enough.
>>64523534O fuk...any more Dune crossovers?
>>64523529Christ, those googly anime irises don't work on that face. You'd think the animators would know that.
>>64523500trannyhumanist
>>64523519it's still autistic that he has that one weirdo italian competition revolver instead of a smith or colt >>64523529>(might be a SAC episode, can't remember).it's in the film
>>64523468I don't think she ever assumed he had her back. For any gun fights I don't even think she ever brought him.
>>64523549the 1995 film, for how good it looks, make the major look kind of ugly with those autistic eyes until the last scene in the rain they finally make her look cute
>>64523612he's the driver for one of the film fights
>>64523612>>64523618The Major's sidekick in fights is always Batou or Saito, Togusa is always the spy/infiltrator or the driver
>>64523723>Saitosaito isn't in the 1995 or 2004 film. I think Batou and Togusa are both in the car chase scene/fight and then batou only shows up at the end of the tank fight
>>64523468Gottem
to be fair his reasoning during the trial was pretty bullshit and he absolutely got downloaded when they said he literally does it to feel special.
>>64523529Wasn't he the only one who could see the Smiling Man since he didn't have hackable cybereyes?
god look at that trigger guard hook, the most 80s shit.
>>64523519You're a fucking retard, aren't you? You try to explain the point of the character, while completely missing it.
>>64523612In the manga she actually has her life saved by him in at least two scraps. I wanna say in the first chase that got adapted into the movie and then in one big ambush where they used ap ammo because they knew she was a cyborg - togusa got hit but his injuries weren't as disabling because the bullets just went through him like butter so he was able to help despite looking like a sieve
>>64523850netflix is allegedly making a direct adaptation of the manga, but they aren't going to have the lesbian gang bang and it's netflix so I don't have high hopes of it being a direct adaptation
>>64523785Yeah but he did get hacked later
>>64523519yet Togusa ended up as mayors successor as the executive officer of Section 9
>>64523468Didn't she bitch at him for that and go basically "fuck off, I know you have a pet peeve about jams, but when you're on an op with me you use an automatic, end of discussion"?
>>64523468it is cool tho
>>64523963
>>64523519>the whole point of his character was to exemplify how normal humans are outdatedThat's the Doyleist reason but the Watsonian reason is as a backup in case the tech fails/is exploited. The Major literally says that he serves to provide diversity and avoid the weakness of uniformity. He's also the only one who's not some kind of sperg and can talk to witnesses well.
>>64523963you're on an anime website troon
>>64524127in the 1995 film, yeah. she specifically tells him he has to use an auto loader but IDR if he actually uses it in that scene or not
>>64523872>but they aren't going to have the lesbian gang bangAhem.As a connoisseur of both irl and pornographic versions, it's an orgy, not a gangbang.
>>64524174no, an orgy would be if all the girls were fucking each other. all the girls were specifically fucking one single girl. it was a gang bang
>>64524157On an anime website posting on a forum NAMED AFTER A FUCKING ANIME CHARACTER
>>64523519What are you talking about? They outright say he's there because he isn't vulnerable to hack-no-jutsu
>>64523615I think that's the only version of her I like, aside from the manga version. The TV shows they made are kinda shit, and make her a boring Mary Sue.
>>64523519He's there because, despite the sophisticated high tech, there are scenarios where you need something tried and true. If the cybernetics fail, flesh and blood is dependable. The revolver is also an example.
>>64524179/k/ is named after an anime?
>>64524193
>>64524193It stands for "Kusanagi", as in Motoko Kusanagi, the main character in the anime this thread is talking about.
>>64523537https://www.tumblr.com/calvinanddune
>>64524127Yes. And after he gets the tracker bullet in the getaway vehicle Batou points out that if he had an automatic he'd have been able to get two in the car in the same amount of time.>>64523611The writers *are* gun autists. The Yakuza shootout in the 2004 movie features a particularly strange list of weapons. Some of the Yakuza guys have normal stuff like Beretta 92's, MAC-10s and 1911s but there's also a fucking AMC Automag, this customized Super Blackhawk, a Manurhin MR96, Bushmaster ARM, Famas....
>>64524205doesn't kusanagi mean rabbit?
>>64524215I think you mean they're airsoft autists.
>>64524215>also a fucking AMC AutomagIsn't that the dirty harry gun that clint fucking hated because it was a piece of shit?
>>64524217>doesn't kusanagi mean rabbit?It means cutting grass when translated literally and is supposedly a reference to some famous sword in Japan.
>>64524223The very same.>>64524219They probably looked at pictures in magazines more than anything else, at least for the OG manga and the first couple movies.
>>64524215>tracker bullet in the getaway vehicleIs it just me, or is it odd how that scene played out?Let's say you're some super l33t operat0r, you suspect there's a high chance of getting into a car chase so you make sure to carry a tracking cartridge with you.But, instead of carrying the tracker cartridge loaded in its own gun, you instead carry just the cartridge which forces you to single-load a revolver whenever you want to use it. That seems like a dumb liability, especially since if a chase is going on you don't exactly have time to waste. Why not carry the tracker bullet pre-loaded in a separate gun?
>>64524230I'm fairly certain the lot of them had a stash or airsoft guns already. The japs invented that shit because they couldn't get real guns.I started ordering Tokyo Marui stuff around the year 2000 or so, and even back then, it was already an established brand, and my 25 year old AEGs are as good as any modern ones.
>>64524237it's even dumber because he wasn't carrying it because he was expecting a chase. he was carrying it because the chase was literally their plan. they literally planned the other guys breaking in and doing that whole thing and the truck getting in the way and he still waited until the last second to load his gun
>>64524257It was established long before 2000. My cousin, a Bong, was obsessed with them in the late 1980's and would rant for ages about how they were so realistic and even the same weight as the originals. I don't know if this is still a thing, but some of them were motorized or ran off compressed gas, and people modded them. There were magazines devoted to this, and it was also referenced in Otaku No Video--both the animation and the live action segments.
>>64524264Yeah, that's even more retarded, in that scenario you could have a few designated marksmen whose only job is to tag the getaway vehicle.
Hey, if you're into old-style, do it with something sexy.
>>64523468Didn't he get into trouble due to a shootout or something where his autistic revolver use was blamed for a civilian being killed or something?
>>64524269The AEGs are "motorized". It stands for automatic electric gun, and they're basically the standard for airsoft rifles. GBBs, or gas blowbacks, are usually used for handguns, and give you much better and more realistic feedback. You can also get GBB automatic rifles, but they're rarer and more expensive, and their performance is affected by ambient temperature, gas cooling, performance issues when the gas is running low, and having to swap out gas far more often than you have to swap out batteries.I don't think AEGs were around in the 80s though, but I'm sure Tokyo Marui was still making decent replicas back then. I mean, most of the jap anime/manga gun autists worth their salt made their mark between the 80s and the early 2000s.As for modding, I don't think I have a single gun that isn't modded. It's been over 20 years since I last bought an airsoft gun or played though, but I kinda want to get back into it.
I would discard my meatbag for a full body replacement asap
>>64524304it's not even that one. the film came out before the auto revolver did. it's one of the normal revolvers with the barrel at the bottom from earlier
>>64524327That's because you're not huwhite.
>>64524312>It's been over 20 years since I last bought an airsoft gun or played though, but I kinda want to get back into it.I and my bro had a couple of them ~20 years ago too. All have been sold since, but I have contemplated doing something like action air to get some moving-with-gun training without spending $$$ on ammo or having to drag my ass to the range
>ruins Mateba prices forever
>>64524334It's fun, and I think it's better than the kind of autistic larping you often see here on /k/. I looked up some of the guys from the old club I founded several decades back, and some of them are still playing. I really should get back to into it.Hell, I still work out and hike several days a week, so it's not like I'd have trouble keeping up with the zoomers.
>>64523468he's basically a DEI hire to maintain the meatbag quota, and he doesnt do anything important in any of the firefights because of it
>>64523519"A machine in which all the parts work the same is a brittle tool. Overspecialization leads to extinction."
>Keep your fucking safety on. Stay in the back. Don't shoot any of my guys.Togusa exists to inspect crime scenes, not shootbang.
>>64524366But they are fighting mostly normal humans though? They are not some unit solely to take care of rampaging robots and other cyborgs. Cybernetics isn't cheap.
>>64524307Yes, during a court case his choice of gun was used against him as a non standard issue gimmick blaster.The only scenario I remember where his revolver was actually useful was when he was able to quickly load and fire a single bullet that was some scifi tracker bullet into the back of a fleeing suspect's car.
>>64524381>SolelyNo, but that is a good chunk of their duties.
>>64524381>Cybernetics isn't cheapPoorfag problems
>>64524370she doesn't say that
>>64524381most people had at least brain enhancements, even togusa
>>64524382that was part of some 4d chess plan so he really could have and should have had the bullet loaded earlier
>>64524381>Cybernetics isn't cheap.They are in GitS. Literally the only people who didn't have cybernetics during the Laughing Man incident were some 40~50+ year old homeless guys, even the younger homeless people had them.Of course, in GitS, there's a difference between basic cyber-brain interfacing and a full body prosthesis like the Major. Being an anime the power scaling goes pretty silly, she could probably pull Adam Smasher's >>64524391 spine out without much effort despite being a quarter the weight simply because the tech in GitS can ignore physics even more than Cyberpunk's already silly stuff.
>>64524400The quote is from Sicario.
>>64524422so why post it
>>64524418strengthwise maybe, but she can't handle the sandy
>>64524430Anon high end GitS borgs are basically full time sandy, I'd say that Cyberpunk low tier guys are better overall than budget GitS borgs mostly because combat augs are just something you can buy from a kiosk in a slum but seem to be regulated in GitS, but once you start getting to full body prosthesis plot armor characters GitS leans hard into the anime bullshit.
>>64524440I don't remember seeing any of that in the film or SAC
>>64524154>>64524184>>64524191Togusa has a cyberbrain that is connected to the internet, so on the contrary, he has the ONE cybernetic enhancement that would allow him to be hacked remotely, doesn't he? If you had a full body cybernetic replacement but an "offline" brain you'd make a better backup guy than Togusa does. You'd only be vulnerable to EMP and couldn't be remotely compromised in any way.
>>64524391If cybernetics aren't cheap in that turbogay Cyberpunk™© setting, why are so many criminals and subhumans geared out their ass? It's almost like a simile of roids today. While a lot of wealthy elites and celebrities apparently get TRT under medical supervision, and end up looking ripped into old age with very little effort, it's mostly associated with subhuman scum like criminals, bodybuilders, braindead athletes and "influencers".
>>64524464it depends on when in the setting you are.2020 has less implants around in general. They're not strange but many NPC statblocks do not include them, or only include minor ones.Why do gangers have them, you ask? Because a professional criminal is higher on the social hierarchy than all low level-proles. He has both the spending money, impetus, and connections to get all this shit. Cyberpunk USA operates a second world country still ran by the Mob and oligarchs, but worse.
>>64524264>>64524272It's a movie thing. Viewers are dumb, so they don't just need to be told the thing, they also need to see it be done.
Who the hell would want an internet-connected brain? There's so much that can go wrong and almost no benefit. You could end up like this guy, with fake memories and an artificial behavior loop that has you convinced you're going home to your wife and child every day when you're really just going to your empty apartment and dissociating until you leave for work the next morning.
>>64524478>it depends on when in the setting you are.I love cyberpunk as a genre of the 80s and 90s, but I loathe the setting/franchise made by that negro.
>>64524497isn't there also some weird thing where cyborgs need to have gay sex in GitS?
>>64524497>Who the hell would want an internet-connected brain?Zoomers. It simply removes one layer of abstraction for them. One and a half if you consider the fact that most of them are computer illiterate, and heavily rely on extremely commercialized and simplified GUIs to even use their mobile devices.
> Who the hell would want an internet-connected brain?anon, you know all those people that buy the "newest corporate product 15X PRO"?those people that buy a samsung smart fridge, connect it to the internet and then don't use any of it's connectivity features and get hacked/get ads?people who browse the internet without any adblockers?people who buy premiere tickets for a marvel movie?it's those kinds of people. braindead fucking normoids, molded by coporate adspic unrelated but it's a robot thread so here's a robot
>>64524497Actually I would pay for someone to set up a loop like that for me
>>64524509>>64524511woahhh so wise and based! im sure when the power goes out and you lose internet you don't get depressed.
>>64524215I like when single action revolvers appear in science fiction. I think a simple, cheap, big bore revolver would become fairly practical in a world with cyborgs, mutants, or aliens.
>>64524518You think the normal reaction to the internet going out is depression?
>>64524518i don't because i have a shitload of other things to do, you braindead terminally online zoomer.
>>64524528>>64524529ok tell me what you do when the power goes out, without lying or embellishing.
>>64524230It's funny how manga guns are often more realistic than guns in western comics; even though manga is overall more stylizedI guess western writers hate guns more It seems they are kind of a political non-issue in Japanno one is trying to unban them, or whining to ban them more
>>64524533it rarely does so how is this even an argument? in the past i could do some housework like cutting wood or repairs or whatever, there's always something to do around here. less so nowadays since i'm mostly past the renovating phase and things have been modernizedplay guitardo my learning anki stuffreadgo out for a myriad of reasons, even for a simple walk/bike ride, or to take some photos around the areago visit someone like my old man or whoevercook somethingor whatever else, really. there's tons of things to do every time, all the time. i curse the fact that i don't have time to do alll the hobby stuff i'd want to do
>>64524541Wonder if it's some sort of licensing issue. Corporate America loves their lawsuits.
>>64524533Go outside and touch grass, eat my ice cream in the freezer before it melts, read a book, call my friend on the phone, do chores and clean. You know, literally any activity besides being on the computer? Or maybe you don't know.
>>64524555>>64524563>when the power goes out i do things i normally don't really want to do but now that i have no other choice i do them
>>64524381>But they are fighting mostly normal humans though?They have to fight people that have the cyborg equivalent of a F-117 in 1980 all the time tho (+ that episode where they had to fight a mecha the japanese cyberpunk glowies borrowed from the army just to kill a scientist before he proved that vaccines are better than expensive nano-machines at dealing with certain diseases)
>>64524541>>64524557japanese mangas just tend to fetishize things a lot more, usually to the point of it being distracting. it also doesn't help that japs cant really own guns so they have more mystical appeal to them. most comic book artists don't really care about guns so they don't put much effort into drawing them super accurately.
>>64524566who said i don't want to do those things or that i don't do them when the power is on? point it out in any of my posts now.
>>64524464it's how guns work in places like the EU or South Americawealthy elites buy kitted out ARs with the S tier target shooting licensethugs smuggle in weapons or build their own smgseveryone else is nogunz
>>64524574its an educated guess based on the average personality and background of most 4chan users.
>>64524533I don't live in a shithole, so that only happens maybe once every two or three years, and even then, it's usually only for a few minutes. I think the longest I've been without power in the past 10 years is less than an hour, and in my entire life, maybe 2 or 3 hours, and that was over 20 years agoAnyway, when the power goes out, I grab a flashlight, check my fuse box and then look outside to see if the power has gone in the neighborhood and the rest of the city. Then I check my phone to see what the problem is (mobile internet is a thing), and by the time I'm done doing that, the power is usually back.The only thing I'd actually worry about if the power went out for a long period of time, is the food in my fridge and freezer going bad.
>>64524586>an educated guessi doubt italso what does that have to do with me? "hurr others are like that" is not a fucking argument, you do realize that, do you?
>>64524579Are you an insane retard or some chink propagandist?
>>64524598are you a gun control propagandist or an EU propagandist?
>>64523872The newest published version of the manga doesn't have it, apparently at Shirow's request.
>>64524227>Japanese sword used to cut grassThe Master Sword?
>>64524612I'm neither, and why would you even ask? You come up with insane, cartoony propaganda that would make even the most stereotypical left wing Hollywood jew blush, and you're asking those questions?
>>64524635because you seem to think there are not illegal weapons in nogunz countries
also immediately jumping to ''chinese propaganda'' is what feds tend to do whenever someone criticizes the government they work for
>>64524461A cyberbrain can disable all networking (I believe that at points they refer to it as "going autistic" lol)The bigger advantage is that he's a lot more lowkey (presumably heavy augmentation should be pretty easy to detect) and thus better suited for plainclothes assignments than most other team members. And things like electromagnetic interference, powerful magnets and such, but that's a very niche advantage
>>64524636Of course there are, you tard. I'm talking about you pretending that elites supposedly buy ARs, which is fucking retarded. Elites don't give a shit about guns, unless they like hunting, and in those cases, they use legal guns.Also, there are plenty of countries in Europe that have a much richer and less commercialized gun culture than the US, because it's more closely tied to hunting, target shooting and history.
>>64524464>If cybernetics aren't cheap in that turbogay Cyberpunk™© setting, why are so many criminals and subhumans geared out their ass?I don't know anon, why do food stamp americans drive Hellcats?
>>64524651ARs are actually legal in a lot of nogunz countriesit just the special license for them is very hard to get
>>64524654Because they can buy them with food stamps
>>64524664>ARs are actually legal in a lot of nogunz countriesNo shit. They were legal here too, then Breivik decided to fuck it up.
>>64524497Because your employer demands it, because pairing your brain to the forklift makes you 20% more efficient at workIn a society where cyberbrains are standard, it's difficult to exist without one. Much like how today you basically can't do shit without at least a phone number and an email account
>>64524885>I am the most aryan person in this thread so yesNo, you're not, unless you're from the same country and region that I am from. And if you were, you wouldn't discard your body, you subhuman faggot.
>>64524885I can tell you're not white. Guess how.
>>64524956Was it the way I type that gave it away?Perhaps the unmistakable vibe I evoke of an uncongeniality with all things good and pleasant in this world?End my suffering. I can’t stand what I am.
>>64524992>I can’t stand what I am.Yellow? Understandable.
>>64524621>The newest published version of the manga doesn't have it, apparently at Shirow's request.He still had one in the Human Algorithm series.
>>64523959In the SAC movie Solid State Society, he get's more cyberised in order to advance career wise, he also swaps his revolver for a standard issue handgun for the same reason of meeting modern performance. Later on he gets hacked
>>64524885>>64524895>>64524956Do you people not know Aryans were brown Indo-Europeans?
>>64524634The sword was originally called Ame no Murakumo and was discovered by Susanoo after he killed Orochi. The sword was passed down to a guy who used the sword to cut grass because some dudes trying to kill him used fire arrows to set the field on fire and he used the swords ability to control the wind to cut the grass and direct the fire back at them and renamed it afterwards.
>>64523872i thought netflix liked gay stuff?
>>64524464>it's mostly associated with subhuman scum like criminals, bodybuilders, braindead athletes and "influencers".I don't disagree, but honestly a shocking amount of people out there (especially zoomers) are delving into dangerous roid and research chemical use to "get big quick".I work for a big package company as a truck driver. When there is no driving work, I get assigned "loading work" at my driving rate instead. It's brutal, dehumanizing work. I end up doing like 6-8 hours of cardio and heavy lifting, and will lose ~5lbs in water weight every night that I do it.I'm in my late thirties, and because I've been doing this for a while, I'm genuinely pretty strong, IE I can do ~20 one-leg squats in a row, all the way down, with one leg out 90 degrees as a warmup.Because of that a lot of my younger coworkers talk to me about lifting and exercise, and they all want to know "what gear are you on", and they're all shocked that I've never done anything. They're all using something. The latest is a research chemical (I think?) called MK677.I try to explain to them that all that shit will give you ED faster than you can imagine, especially if you're not seeing a doctor to monitor your levels, and will more than likely fuck them up in a variety of ways they can't yet imagine.They all just say "oh but I'm only taking a little bit, and I only do it for a week at a time." or whatever and brush me off. We're talking about like 50 young guys in their twenties all using something insane like that. It's fucking horrifying.
>>64524418>she could probably pull Adam Smasher's spine outPossibly. She's basically the same tech as Smasher but a more gyno shapeHe likes to hang out in a battle chassis during work hours but he has a pretty boy body he wears to date his boss's cousin.
>>64524427Anon is suggesting that Togusa plays a similar role to the FBI chick, or at least is of similar use in a firefight.
>>64525255Your story sounds a bit off, but I'm not sure why you'd post it or what you're after.
>>64525055What a fucking loser
>>64524418>despite being a quarter the weightIsn't her body canonically a several hundred pounds? Or am I misremembering?
>>64524430>strengthwise maybe, but she can't handle the sandyShe probably could, she can shoot bullets out of the air and is frequently considered to be preternaturally gifted at interfacing with cyberware.
>>64525255everyone thinks they're invincible when they're that age, especially for things they can't see or visualize
>>64525255FWIW research chemicals != roids. They don't work the same way and generally don't have the same sidesThey're not "safe", in the sense that there are no long-term studies that would determine if they give you cancer 10 years down the line, but the immediate side effects are mild to nonexistentMK677 in particular just gives you a little extra oomph in strength and endurance and makes your recovery and sleep better at basically no cost (as far as we know)
>>64525295Something like 500 pounds. Why Batou thinks she's crazy for scuba diving.
>>64525327I'll reconsider my "I want her to sit on my face" comments
>>64524497If I'm not mistaken, in more than a few episodes the idea of body swapping was also a thing like when a bunch of government higher ups or whatever were held hostage in a whore house and the talk of clients swapping bodies with the prostitutes was a thing.
>>64524461>>64524154When they talk about Togusa being more human as advantage, the film doesn't just mean specifically organic, it means the fact that he has a family and a more or less normal career and that kind of perspective. Contrasted with Motoko's black void of an apartment and Batou only having his dog. It's that awareness of the human aspects that tips him off that something's up, which is the narrative payoff for it.
>>64524621>that copypastaI'm fucking dying. Nice.
>>64525331Coward.
>>64524442Because it isn’t there, he’s making shit up
>>64524586I think you might just be projecting, anon, your educated guess is based on your own life.I am very heavily jacked into the internet zeitgeist, but i also touch a lot of grass, go innawood, have deep knowledge about the natural world, fell problem trees near powerlines.You can be chipped in and still have a normal life when the internet goes out regardless.
>>64525291I don't know what to tell you dude, just shouting into the void about this immediately worrying issue I've been seeing for some time now, just because I saw the chance at random. I don't really have anyone to voice these concerns to in my life.>>64525318>MK677 in particular just gives you a little extra oomph in strength and endurance and makes your recovery and sleep better at basically no costOkay, that's almost exactly what they've all been telling me.But all this shit is a mystery grab bag of adulterated chemicals with no quality checks or verification, nor significant definitive research and testing, and they're all taking this with no professional consultations or monitoring.So on top of not having a clear understanding of it's long term effects, you have no way to 100% verify if it's completely the chemical in question in the first place, nor any precise understanding of what it's doing to your body aside from how you immediately feel.It's just insane to do this shit when your alternative is just go a little slower, wait a few months longer, and not have to worry about it at all.
>>64525448>just because I saw the chance at random.If that's what it is and you're not just laying it on thick, you have my respect. It just seems a bit too constructed and simple, because it's a scenario that too many people want to complain about and identify with.
The normal and healthy reaction to seeing highly augmented cyborgs that only vaguely resemble humans is revulsion. I find it concerning that so many, particularly in the nerd/weeb/4chan crowds, think they're "cool".
Did Batou ever score with the Major?
>>64525622No, but that kid did.Batou never slapped the robot roast beef
>>64524193Moot said /k/ stands for killing. Ignore the weeb.
>>64525782Here I thought it meant /k/alashnikovWait then why is automobile /o/, shouldnt it be /au/ or /auto/?
>>64523872I’m sorry, the what? I may need to look this up.
>>64525797/o/ is /o/ because it looks like a tire/wheel
>>64525782>>64525797...can't tell how much of this discussion is trolling or misinformation or autism or retardation or whatever.Ignoring the simple, direct /k/atana answer you should have been able to arrive at instantly.
>>64525295>>64525327>>64525331>>64525388
>>64525848Why would I automatically think /k/atana? I don't use swords, and I'm not a weeb. >>64525832That makes sense.
>>64524430Nigga she ran circles around a robot tank that couldn't land a single shot on her with Gatling guns and shot a sniper's bullet out of the air. She's definitely not perceiving time at a normal human rate.>>64524440GITS leans extremely hard into anime bullshit, remember Kuze jumping around like a flea? >>64525345This. It was about his thinking being different than the shot out degenerate nihilistic freaks that the full cyborgs on the team were.
>>64525797it's /k/ because the 2ch board is /k/ because it stands for kengeki
>>64524464>If cybernetics aren't cheap in that turbogay Cyberpunk™© setting, why are so many criminals and subhumans geared out their ass?They sort of are in 2077, the only impediment is cyberpsychosis so only nutjobs with good PMC-funded healthcare can afford the anti-psychotics to stay mentally stable.
>>64524507only in the manga
>>64525922>KuzeI don't even need to remember him specifically, there's Honda hatchback sized robot tanks leaping 200 meters vertically and sticking to walls that shouldn't even be able to hold their weight in every other episode.
>>64525768Didn't he take in the loli-ified version of her in the ending of one of the movies?
>>64523519Nigger his revolver can be loaded special rounds per chamber to fuck on robots and other horrors. Not to mention less than lethal bullets lmao.
>>64524557the gun lawsuit thing only really became a thing after the illegal sandy hoax lawsuit>>64524541DC and marvel were both NYC based for the vast majority of their histories. DC only moved out of NYC in the last 10 years and both DC and marvel hired a disproportionate number of nyc cucks and bongs
>>64524651>Also, there are plenty of countries in Europe that have a much richer and less commercialized gun culture than the US,false. yurop has no culture other than trannies an homos
>>64525199>graphic lesbian sex>gaypick one
>>64525255blame women for making guys feel the need to roid
>>64525295probably. in the 1995 they specifically mention the cyborgs breaking in weight like a ton combined
>>64525813the guy drew some scene of the major and multiple other girls all finger banging one girl and then said in universe it's because cyborgs can't have normal sex because parts incompatibility but out of universe he said it was because he didn't want to draw naked dudes because that's gay
>>64525848Moot literally answered this question here, over a decade ago. It stands for killing.
>>64526025he didn't fuck it and she like immediately left both times
>>64523615She's supposed to have creepy penetrating eyes. Like the eyes of a predator: an eagle or a tiger. The females of those species are huntresses, after all.Female bald eagle is even larger than the male, classic example.One of her little motifs is that's she's exciting and sexy, but the price for touching that, if you even get the chance (which you won't) is that you'll probably fucking die just by association. You don't get wrapped up in that if you're wise.Kind of like a feudal servant at arms (knight /samurai) chasing the thrill of fame and glory.
>>64526043he said he uses a revolver because he's worried about semis jamming which kind of makes sense in the context of the fact the manga came out in 1989 and back then you had fuddlore and the fact a lot of popular semi auto handguns couldn't feed hollow points for most of the 20th century. one of the big reasons>revolvers are just so much strongerexists is because a lot of semi autos couldn't feed hollow points for a lot of the 20th century
>>64526226>one of the big reasons>revolvers are just so much stronger>exists is because a lot of semi autos couldn't feed hollow points for a lot of the 20th centuryThat's not just some kind of meme anon, back then things like the Colt Delta Elite would crack frames with full house FBI 10mm, while Dan Wesson was putting out revolvers you could unscrew barrels out of in 357 Maximum (not magnum, I actually mean maximum, look it up) with a pocket wrench, and people were shooting them competitively, putting 1000s of rounds through them. Revolvers WERE legitimately stronger.
>>64524651>Also, there are plenty of countries in Europe that have a much richer and less commercialized gun culture than the US, because it's more closely tied to hunting, target shooting and history.What you mean is that it's gun culture entirely policed by wealthy fudds and legislation ensures nobody under the age of 50 will ever have anything nice. It's a bit of a caricature but that's how I would put it in general terms as a European
>>64524193i thought it was krieg
>>64525797All the boards were just single letters at first
>>64526193it's gay but i guess no dei points if straight guys are not grossed out
>>64526437the vast, vast vast majority of women who have sex with women also have sex with men
>>64526454all women are bi>>64526437iirc Mamoru Oshii said the sole reason he portrayed Kusanagi only ever with women is because he didn't want to draw a guy's ass cheeks.
>>64526216Which is funny because he's drawn tons of niggers gangbanging white girls.
>>64526522what?
>>64526454>>64526494Only maybe 10% of lesbian women are gay. Most are just tourists/roommates. It's not really gay because they're not actually having sex anyway.
>>64526226>the context of the fact the manga came out in 1989The other important context here is that this is before the Japanese police dallied with semi-autos, so him having a rveolver communicates that he is a Normal Japanese Police Officer, but the fact that it's an unorthodox one communicates that he's a Future Police Officer as well.
>>64526494yeah that wont fly in the age of obligatory ass cheek shots
>>64526494not alli'd say some will rate women and literal animals above ''ugly'' (actually average) guysmen normally do the opposite i
>>64526527It's true, he's drawn a lot of porn in recent years (well, recent-ish) on that exact subject.
>>64526570>not all>i'd say some will rate women and literal animals above ''ugly'' (actually average) guys>men normally do the opposite>i?

>>64526494shirowoshii did the movies
>>64526616Thanks, whoopsYeah I was distracted.In the back of my mind, as I was typing >>64526494, I thought (What about Shirou Masamune? Nahh, he just does oily porn doujinshi, he's not the originator.)Kek>>64526522Masamune's just a neurotic contrarian autistic like Giger and Anno. We are indebted to some of his aesthetics, but that's where it ends.He loves defilement porn in general. We know from the supplemental material of the GitS manga that he's smart enough to understand sensor design. Yet his scrambled mind prevents him from pursuing real technical work. His frustrations express themselves as wild fetishes. Like Anno and Miyazaki, Masamune is also eternally buttblasted over Grorious Nippon Teikoku losing to Murka. He takes out his frustration with Murka in his fiction.I will derive great satisfaction when, contrary to how Masamune's neo-Soviet has its shit together and manages to steal Alyaska back from the ebil Murkans, real life Russia's proven as the bigger shit hole about to get carved up.Similar to how, in a real-life Greater Japanese Empire that Masamune so adores, his degeneracy wouldn't be celebrated (or even tolerated) to the degree that post-MacArthur Japan allows.
