you guys have to watch the show!!!! Its amazing! And its same characters
@@gennadiym461 And I agree. They should watch the series... maybe Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence.
I love the series opening song, "Inner Universe."
Can you get to the final trailer for Stranger Things 3? I would like to see you guys react to it
Hey Blindwave would guys be able do reactions to HBO miniseries Chernobyl and the movie Upgrade. I don't know if you have seen either one. Have a great weekend.
You should definitively watch the Stand Alone Complex seasons. The anime of 1995 kept a story from the manga and adapted it but it's much darker ; the SAC are new stories but they have the mood of the manga and follow the whole unit instead of some characters only. Both are great and worth watching.
25 years later, this movie is still absolute eyecandy. There is something about old school anime that modern stuff can't really seem to capture. They feel more "real".
Its not old school if youve seen 70’s anime lol .
@@eclatshwartzbaumcybertune2063 30 years is def old school by definition lol especially since the stable of animation was cell animation during this time not digital composition. It def deserves the title of old school
@@mookiestewart3776 this had a lot of digital composition in it, it was halfway between classical and recent cutting edge.
Its the reflections, light and shadow treatment
it's the perfect balance of technology and creativity. nowadays everything's gotten too technical, too plastic, too polished. originality is lost in the sea of technical possibilities and tool options.
Hopefully one day the guys will watch Ghost in the Shell stand alone complex :D
Right? Wouldn't that be rad? Maybe they could do something similar to the way they watched Avatar: the Last Airbender and watch the series and then the live action movie.
I'd also love to see their reaction to the tachikomas XD
@@gemelwalters2942 blame the voters for that one...
I don't normally leave comments,but stand alone complex is a top ten anime all time.
Dont forget about 2nd gig , its my personal favorite 😎
The show was great love its opening, crazy show,,, hope they do watch it
In the original understanding and canon, the reason she see's herself everywhere is because her synthetic body model is the cheapest on the market. This was by design to hide the extremely valuable servo systems inside that would make her a target for looters should she ever get damaged in the field. She looks like a standard cheap model (interestingly, this model was designed to be, and always intended to be caucasion, so despite the american movie being a shit live action adaption, contrary to what people think, it wasn't actually race washing. except the reason for her cacasion look in the film was incorrect)
This theme of identity, or if you are real, your ghost (soul) being manufactured or a fundamental aspect of who you are that can never be replaced or destroyed, is what Ghost in the Shell is all about.
All of the characters represent different aspects of identity. Bato has robot eyes because eyes are the window into the soul, he has no ghost. Not literally, but in metaphor, he is the audience, the sound-board for the philosophical discussions with the major and those around him. He is the one these discussions are explained to, and he's also played as the 'straight man', the man that is surprised, normal, reacts like an average guy. His reactions are the audience's reactions.
Togusa has absolutely no cybernetic parts other than a few implants that allows him to discuss in his head with others. This is because his own personal identity is in how human he is, he cannot cyberise himself as he feels it would make him more machine than man.
All the while, the major is fully cyberised, with little understanding on if she is even real, and constantly questioning this fact about herself.
The point of Ghost in the Shell, is that "identity" is relative to the individual. What you consider you, is all you there is. If an artist considers his hands an intricate part of their soul and identity as a person, then losing those hands is akin to losing their humanity. Like Togusa with his body. Botou with his eyes. Motoko with her whole form. What makes you you... is something only you can decide. No one else and no society can place constraints on that.
It's all about raising that question. What makes you, you, in your eyes. Where does man stop, and the machine begin. Are you real, or just a 'Ghost, in the Shell'.
Well the "race washing" was a dumb issue, the biggest one I had with the hollywood movie was that she got to learn about her past and parents. The point is that she could've been anyone or if she was even a "real" person. Her past being known destroys a huge part of her character.
I’m happy to see another with an understanding of the philosophical messages in the first film and the general undertone of the series as a whole.
@Beppu, she's aware of her past in the Stand Alone Complex series, as in that series she's a survivor of a serious plane crash IIRC and the only way to save her and give her a quality of life is to go full cyborg as one of the earliest adapters, otherwise she would have died as a child in a broken unfixable mortal flesh body.
@@darrenrichardson6146 The point is also because of that plane crash, they never grew up with a human body. She never really had a past that mattered in a world where people's digitized brains can be reworked and their whole self changed. Her entire past could've been faked and her work requires her to not have a life to settle down.
Never has it ever been stated anywhere that her synthetic body was modelled to appear caucasian, nor has she ever shared the resemblance of a White person. She has always appeared Japanese.
In fact, it's absolutely ridiculous for anyone to even assume considering the overall setup and setting of the story. I've no idea why some people continue to display such cognitive dissonance on this matter - same thing happens with Dragon Ball. Like, is it really that difficult that the world doesn't revolve around you?
The Matrix was heavily influence by Ghost in the Shell. It's technically a post apocalypse Ghost in the Shell movie
More like sibling movies lol
The Stand Alone Complex series and movie and the Arise OVAs and the second movie are definitely worth a watch. There is so much to explore in this world. I've been a fan for decades and every time I rewatch GitS I learn something new.
I would love it if they reacted to Stand Alone Complex, not only for the stories told but for the discussions they would have (especially based on the discussion to this movie.)
Thanks for the reaction, guys!
Stand Alone Complex is absolutely fantastic, and my favorite anime of all time. I prefer it over this film even. I really hope they land on it some day, but it doesn't do very well in reactor polls unfortunately.
@@kallemort Yeah, I don't see it being a reaction. As much as I'd love seeing their reactions and hearing the discussions over it, I'd take them just watching it on their own time, too because it's an experience I think is very important on their "anime journey."
Thank you for taking the tune to read my comment and a reply.
Are you excited for the new GitS series?
@@tinal8447 I'm worried about it, but we'll see how it goes. No matter what happens it can't tarnish SAC and 2nd Gig, at least
@@kallemort That is how I feel, too. It took me a while to get into Arise, but I eventually got there. Hopefully, there's some interesting detective stories.
@@tinal8447 Hope so. I'm 100% against it being full CG but unfortunately it's been already confirmed. Maybe good writing can salvage it, we'll see.
One of my favourite movies, and that OST... it's perfection.
overrated movie theOST however is perfect
Calling something overrated is stupid because it implies that you think people shouldn't like it as much as they do. Let people like what they want, even if you yourself don't think it's as good as them.
It's far more accurate to say "This wasn't my thing," or "I don't see the appeal." Especially with a movie like this where people enjoy it for vastly different reasons.
@@jacobmonks3722 I guess you have a point personaly care more about the story than anything else and in this movie it just wasn't as great as the hype leads you to belive
@@oivasuppula4530 shut up
9:15 She sees herself because her face & body are a standard commercial model. But it's been souped-up to military standard & she's an extremely skilled operator.
Remember renting both Akira and Ghost in the Shell back in 96 from Blockbuster Video.
You guys should check out Perfect Blue
And throw "Mousou Dairinin" (/"Paranoia Agent") in there just for good measure...
Can't miss out on *_"Serial Experiments Lain"_* either!.
- Just for some more of the Classic _"Mind F*ck"_ Anime List Experience...
Bye then.
.
or paprika
SuperBlueboy2010 or just of Satoshi Kon’s work. Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress, Tokyo Godfathers, Paranoia Agent, Paprika, Good Morning. He died way to soon.
TheBestF22 they will never react to these shows sadly, just look at what shows wins polls I mean if Steins Gate can’t win and shows like Psycho-Pass can’t even get on a poll what chance do these shows have, I mean l like these show but they will never win. Next poll Steins Gate will lose to a show like Gurren Lagann or if it gets back on the poll the shit that is fate I mean a lot of people want a show call The Seven Deadly Sins to win.
@@First_Time_Plays oh wow didn't realise they were by the same person, rip
If you like philosophical anime with oldschool vibe I’d suggest Jin Roh. Under-appreciated.
Truth
Holy Shit, they should!!!
That one was a great one as well.
It's a really slow burning show, though. It may not be good for having a video reaction to with the expectation of a secondhand party following along.
Personally, I think the movie told the story it needed to just fine. I don't feel like I need anything more. Not saying more couldn't have improved it, but more isn't always better. I didn't need to know anything about the Major prior to her cybernetic body's creation nor was it an action movie where there needed to be a huge climactic event in the third act to wow its audience. Maybe I'm wrong but that's the issue I gleamed they had when they said they didn't realise the movie was already ending. It's true - we only got a glimpse into this futuristic world but that's the glimpse Mamoru Oshii wanted us to see. Not how advanced the rest of the world was, how this Japanese government as a whole is structured, nor even anything about the Major's human life, if she ever even had one. It was about transhumanism and the need for one's "uniqueness" in a world where your whole body could be manufactured. Your memories manipulated. What then is a human being? How can you know anyone is? I feel showing us a human Major would humanise her far more than was necessary considering her existentialism. It removes doubt. "She did exist". "She was like this". "That's why she became this". There's a distinct loss of meaning for her existentialism in the earlier parts of the movie once you know for sure.
The Puppet Master was not evil. All it wanted was to be treated as a living being and it understood that as creating an offspring to improve its "genes" and then die. It even acknowledged the laws of the country and asked for asylum. Also, as I understand it, the Major is just as dead as the Puppet Master at the end. She merged with him and essentially killed herself, her own "uniqueness", to reproduce something new. That's their "baby" at the end with both of their "uniqueness".
Lastly, the animation and art are absolutely gorgeous. This is the type of anime I love most of all.
The last scene you see she tried so hard to tear the tank she broke her body
In the first watch, disturbing
But more to think, it is just "replaceable parts"
The disturbing feeling is actually no because of broken body
It is just not acting like "human"
This is very great 👍
18:05 there is indeed similarities with Bladerunner, since both Bladerunner And Ghost in the Shell had for inspiration "Do Androids dream of electric Sheeps?" from Phillip K Dick.
In Both of them there is that questioning of what really makes up an Human being, and where does the line get drawned between Humanity and artificial humanity?
Manny anime took from blade runner and terminator
@@eclatshwartzbaumcybertune2063 yup and then 2049 took from a lot of anime mostly bebop and ghost in the shell
There is a direct sequel to this movie, but this was meant to stand on its own. Each iteration of the franchise is its own separate timeline with mostly the same characters. The manga, the movies, Stand Alone Complex and Arise each tell their own stories with some themes being consistent throughout.
Ghost in the Shell is easily in my Top 10 animated films list, and that includes Disney.
What a pleasant surprise. Dang, might just join the Patreon gang, kinda wanna watch full lengths wit y'all
Batou's english dub is a damn shame compared to the japanese one though.
@@KeangoDLuke
True...
Now, They just have to watch *_"Serial Experiments Lain"_* and "Mousou Dairinin" (/"Paranoia Agent") to complete the Classic _"Mind F*ck"_ Anime Collection...
(I'm actually Assuming they already watched "Neon Genesis Evangelion" on Their own a long time ago, BTW...)
C Ya L8r then!. *;P*
.
The "True" in My previous reply was about Batou's Dub VA, BTW...
Don't know why but...
The Japanese/Original VA for Batou, reminds Me a Lot of Morel from HxH (2011)...
(Just feels even more _"NOIR"_ than Morel though)
Bye then.
.
@@TheBest_F-22 Lain is such a mindfuck though. Don't know how they'd even be able to react to it weekly. Musou Dairinin is a little bit better to react to since it's core theme is easier to pick up on. I actually think another show they could watch is Shinsekai Yori, kind of a mind fuck and a really well written story with good twists
@@TheBest_F-22 I figured. Yeah, I just feel like the dub VA has no presence, can't really feel his personality at all. The Japanese VA put so much heart into his performance, but I guess that's the same too for the rest of the cast. But back then, the directing for the English dub didn't really have much effort put into it so the seiyuus did whatever with what they had
The soundtrack and animation of this still gives me chills.
2:00 Technically no. She had a monofilament invisibility suit on. It just happens to be completely see-through when it's not active.
You guys need to watch Stand Alone Complex. It is one of my favorite anime series.
Kenji Kawai’s music 🙌
The manga isn't that different in tefms of story and tone. It has some lighter humorous moments and characters (like they have automated dromes with funny personalities that aid them with their police work). But the subjects treated are definitly complex and intended for mature readers.
The author was (probably still is) incredibly educated on new technologies and put a lot of detailed explanations on every tech gear he showed (vehicles, guns, computers, body augmentations...). Trully visionnary stuff, sometimes heavy and hard to follow storywise, but super interesting.
edit : and it's Kusanagi, not Kusakani. ;)
Its good parts of the manga were used for movie/episode ideas even in the sequel also.
Man, you guys should watch Akira if most haven't seen it.
That is some godlike old school anime.
One of the greatest anime movies from when I was young. Still rewatch it every few months.
True classic cyberpunk dystopia! Any members of the crew going to play cyberpunk 2077?
Rick at least
this was amazing, it was such a joy watching
this with you guys, good worK
I don't know if the Blindwave crew reads these comments but I wanted to clarify that Motoko's brain is still organic and it is encased in a titanium shell. You can see the case it the initial title sequence and Batou mentions this in the elevator. Nobody goes around opening them, so that's one of the reasons she doubts her nature.
Also, there is a Ghost in the Shell 2 movie (Innocence), made by the same director. I recommend you see it. It goes more philosophical and explores more themes.
Bruh the nostalgia!!
Interesting choice. I saw this on the big screen at a London cinema back in 1995 when I was hugely into anime. Was darn cool. 🙂
"If you smell ass get your trouble out of here."
NO ONE picked up on that ...
28 years later and humanity might need to find answers to the core of this movie sooner than expected.
"Khal Drogo and his Blood Riders Watch an Awesome Old Cartoon"
A masterpiece of anime and animation as a whole. Not only because it was ahead of its time but also because how groundbreaking and influential it ended up being. It was also my first feature length anime movie, after it, Ninja Scroll.
There is a sequel to this movie. It's pretty different but still very cool.
Do they know there’s a movie that’s a direct sequel to this one? It’s Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence.
I just want them to react to Evangelion and just watch how confused they all get
I'm not sure if it would be even worse because of _"that Dub"_ ... (That even had Audio Leveling/Capping problems on the SFXs...)
Just add to that wishlist a Reaction to *_"Serial Experiments Lain"_* and "Mousou Dairinin" (/"Paranoia Agent") for the Complete _"Mind F*ck"_ Anime List Experience!.
(But I Suspect They already watched "Neon Genesis Evangelion" on their own a while ago, way before starting Reactions...)
C Ya L8r then!. *;P*
.
I’m not sure you want them to react to that show because they would be watching the Netflix dub and that dub just fuck up the whole show. One of the worst dubs ever. Great show just one bad dub
TheBestF22 I doubt they watched it before because of how hard it was to get in the states. And there are a lot of more we’ll known anime they haven’t watched so I doubt they have seen it before maybe Rick but not the rest of them.
This show is on my watchlist so I'm saving this reaction for later.
For me, the beauty of "Ghost in the Shell" is that, the Plot is only the "Shell" of the movie, the core (Ghost) is almost completely told visually and through tone. It's like watching 2 movies at same time. Stand Alone Comlex has a better Plot because it's its core as apposed to surface noise. That being said Stand Alone Complex is a great show and definitely react to it.
The Live Action version is just a "Ghost in the Shell" themed Robocop remake. Although Weta did a great job with the visual effects.
Yeah this is the perfect way to get at the symbolism throughout the movie with its own complementary narrative. Two movies at the same time, one happening right in front of you and one happening just below the surface. The more time you invest in this movie, the more it has to offer. Truly a work of art.
I love how the informational sentience is cast as a Messiah to lead humanity forward, and also a martyr who dies for humanity's digital sins as only they can, as an entity born purely in the digital realm. I also love the whole marriage, reproduction, and death repeating twice throughout the film, once to create Makoto Kusanagi as a completely cybernetic person, and again with the joining of souls. It brings to mind the strong themes of resurrection in early Christianity. The whole God and heaven comparison with the internet at the end is so evocative, especially the beautiful scene that shows bullets travelling up and transcending the Tree of Life carved in stone, like how the Major was able to be freed of her Earthly shackles to take her place at the side of God (the Net). God I love this movie to death.
What a beautiful surprise... Ghost In The Shell is one of my favorite movies. Especially the beginning music. Y'all need to check out the live performance of it on RUclips, it makes me cry. :')
Love seeing all your different personalities react to anime.
You should react to Ghost In The Shell: Stand ALone Complex. One of the best Anime series adaptations of all time. So good that even exceeds the quality of the source material in certain aspects. Definetely worth watching. Every episode would lead you to very interesting debates, guaranteed.
Old School Boy What show sorry I only watch shows like One Punch Man and Hunter x Hunter.
Let’s be real if a more well known show like Steins Gate can’t win a poll and Psycho-pass hasn’t even been put on a poll what chance does this show have.
Might I also recommend Iria: The Zeiram Animation and Armitage the Third, two of my favorite futuristic fantasy/cyberpunk anime movies.
Snap my first favorite anime film ghost in the shell baby
PERFECT BLUE!!!
You'll have your minds blown
They should react to all of Satoshi Kon’s Work
Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress, Tokyo Godfathers, Paranoia Agent, Paprika, and Good Morning. He was gone to soon
If you guys want to check out more Ghost in the Shell here is a list starting with this one. First is this one then there is the sequel called "Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence".
Then there is the completely separate continuities.
The first anime series Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
Then sequel to Stand Alone Complex called Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig
and then the movie that is the sequel to to second show and ends things off within this continuity, the movie is called Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: Solid State Society.
Then there is the continuity called Ghost in the Shell Arise which comes in 50 to 60 minute long episodes called borders which were later remade into ten episodes which added one more piece to the story and then a movie called Ghost in the Shell: The New Movie.
They are all fun honestly. Also in 2020 a new continuity is to be made and will air on netflix, it is called Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2045. (I'm guessing it will be like the other Stand Alone Complex shows but will tell it's own story.)
Oh please do Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. It is so good!
React to GITS: Innocence - the standalone (but not really) sequel to this movie
So great to meet you at con of thrones! I would love to see you react to stand alone complex! There are so few people who have reacted to it and it is so much more flushed out in the world building and story! SAC remains my gold standard that I hold all adult anime to.
I'm still hoping the guys check out Alita: Battle Angel
Oh they definitely will, that one is so winning whatever poll it's going into. But first it has to come out on blu-ray, which is next month.
@@Ebosan87 WAIT IT'S ON THE POLL?
@@Ebosan87 oh wait I misinterpreted what you said
when i first watched this it awakened my love for sci-fi tacticool, and stand alone complex really delivers if you want more of that
Absolute classic anime. The animation still holds up and competes with modern series.
"YOU SAID KAGI" lmfao
I don't think I was ever able to finish the movie. I love the series though. They definitely should add it to the poll
3:12 I gotchu Aaron! I got that reference to Leeloo from The Fifth Element even if no one else did. That movie was made only two years after Ghost in the Shell, so I'm sure this movie influenced that "3-D Printing of Leeloo" sequence, like it did for a LOT of cyberpunk and sci-fi works afterwards.
So when i got my apartment this was one of the first movies i had to pick up no matter how many times i watch it an amazing feat of writing and technology at the time.
Stand Alone Complex would be so perfect for you guys.
1)Her name is Major MOTOKO (Moh-Toh-Koh) Kusanagi (Koo-sah NAH GEE). Her brain inside her head is still a real brain, she's a CYBORG.
2) The "Sections" are para-military Police force divisions that all answer to the Pan-Asian government consortium.
3) the Puppet Master merged with Motoko's mind (her "ghost") so she only sounds like Motoko because she or "they" wants to, there's a bit of "synth" accent to her voice to indicate she's not just "the Major" anymore. Her brain or just her mind (ghost) could be uploaded into ANYwere, any network, any server, and she'd have full control and access over all of it nothing could stop her. that's was kind of the point. her/Their mind "is free".
most ALL of these concepts is featured in the film "The Matrix".
4) Watch the anime series Stand Alone Complex and Second Gig, it eventually reveals whom Motoko was before she was a full-bodied cybernetic person known as Motoko Kusanagi.
If you're into Cyberpunk and the whole question about Whats the difference between Humans and Androids/Cyborgs and their place in society, 80's/90's Japanese animation has you covered.
Of all the people on this darn planet, Cyberpunk is one of the Biggest genres that Japanese loves, with Fantasy and Mechas.
There is a SHITLOAD of Cyberpunk works in manga and anime, and they mix all kind of other genres.
Other Cyberpunk movies that has a different atmosphere and are real good are Appleseed and Patlabor.
And in the anime shows Psycho-pass is definatly a good one to watch.
Off course Akira wich kind kickstarted it in a way, but you guys allready saw it.
One of my three favorite movies of all time: The Empire Strikes Back, Blade Runner, and Ghost in the Shell.
I like that you mentioned how unsexy this movie makes nudity. I love that the camera frames the human body as little more than a machine, exactly how Motoko views her body. They don't shy away from nudity, because why would you feel shame about a machine, but they also don't frame the nudity in a sexual way. The human body isn't glorified or stigmatized, it's just a tool.
Kept watching and you had basically this exact conversation... you beautiful bastards
For the love of god, watch the Stand Alone Complex!
It would be great to watch you guys react to the ghost in the shell stand alone complex series. The series also answers a lot of the questions that you had after watching this movie, it really fleshes out the characters and the world that they live in.
The second film is underrated, honestly.
Oh my God yes! I didn't know they were doing this yay
I think the lack of backstory was done on purpose. I think the creators wanted her to be as much as a machine as possible and dehumanize her. Backstory gives purpose and character and a machine has no character only purpose, routine.
I'm really curious as to how you guys would like Armitage III (Polly Matrix). It came out in '95. Its one of my favorites. i feel like not too many people know about it. And thats a shame.
Armitage was awesome!!
That movie isn't one that you can just watch once and understand everything. It's a deep movie with many layers.
You guys NEED to react to Akira!
Some movies for recommended movie reactions:
1. The Thirteenth Floor (1999)
2. The Wraith (1986)
3. Habit (1995)
4. Cherry 2000 (1987)
5. Miracle Mile (1989)
6. Octalus / Deep Rising
This reaction made me want them react to pshycho pass, its kinda a similar sort of anime. it has 2 seasons. season 1 has 22 ep and season 2 has 11. (havent seen season2 yet though)
if a mod or a patreon could present this suggestion to them id greatly appreciate it.
If, then it better only be Season 1, S2 went off the rails.
@@klappstuhl4370 what happend with season 2 ? i never actually saw it
@@KYUUTOURYUAZURA Gen Urobuchi (very talented author of the first season and also script writer for madoka magica and original creator of the fate/zero light novel) got switched for someone else without an ounce of his talent.
@@xxxxnekrosxxxx i see . That a fucking shame. Why did they decide to do that
@@KYUUTOURYUAZURA The people in charge of S1 were busy with the movie, and the B-team was stuck working on S2. Needless to say, they messed with the story, plot, and character development in a manner that ruined it.

Robot finger girl: would you like a happy ending?
Massage customer: No.
Robot finger girl: Happy ending sequence engaged. Sending report.
Massage customer: NOOOO!!!
I know this one too, i used to have the original old vcd back in 1999 when i was 14 or something. Damn i feel like old as F. 😂🤣
Oh shit, that *you're finally awake* caught me off guard... Thought I was back in Skyrim again.
Please watch the anime movie Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade.
Wow thnx u guys opinions make the movie so much more interesting and awesome~!
I would love to see your guy's reaction to the live action movie
I recommend the two seasons (and tv movie between em) of the tv show, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. It's really interesting, well directed and full of cool concepts. The only thing to be aware of is that requires the viewer to pay actual attention, because it's not gonna re-explain everything again and again just for the viewer's sake :D
And with attention, I don't mean to not sleep during it, but to pay extra attention, as the story and plot points can be quite articulate
This is one of the best Anime flicks ever made! ❤️🙏🔥
Hopefully they’ll react to silent voice in the near future🙏🏻
you guys should definitely watch the anime series. this anime change my life.
Just make sure people vote for it because I doubt they will, just look at Steins Gate
GITS, GITS:SAC, SAC:2ND GIG, GITS:Arise, and the OVAs..... Just Consume it all !!!
Stand Alone Complex was a spinoff which worked as an insight into the operations of Section 9 as a working unit, presented as episodic stories with an overarching story. The first series dealt with the Laughing Man case, the second the Individual Eleven case. Where the films are more philosophical in tone, the series is also attuned to an adventure detective cyberpunk style. Both series are great and compliment the movies.
You guys should really watch the anime after this, since like cowboy bebop, its one of the best 90s anime
I _love_ *Ghost in the Shell SAC* and love the second series, *GitS SAC 2ndGIG,* _even more._
"Arise" hasn't quite won me over yet. I think I'm too stuck on the original cast dynamic. But I'm still giving it a chance.
*EDIT:* OMG, the live action film needs to be seen _after_ watching the TV series! It is _soooo_ different story-wise, and may mess you up.
Thomas Kelly What show sorry I only watch shows like One Punch Man and Hunter x Hunter.
Let’s be real if a more well known show like Steins Gate can’t win a poll and Psycho-pass hasn’t even been put on a poll what chance does this show have.
Sooo... when should we let them know that there’s a second movie that continues this timeline?
The soundtrack to this film = Goosebumps
About a month after, my twenty-fourth birthday; I went to a, Walmart or Target to, buy a gift, for myself. Surrounded by numerous copies, of the 2017, Ghost in the, Shell adaptation.... was a, steel-plated copy of, the 1995 GitS Film. There was only, _one_ left. I bought the steel, plated 1995 version instead. One of the best, choices of my life. Bless be.
Would love it if you guys could react to other classic but less known anime movies like Patlabor 2! :-)
So much philosophy in this movie.
Legitimately the only English Dub that I like the main characters as much as I like the Japanese cast...(The Major (Motoko Kusanagi and Batou).
Was my first Anime feature film I ever saw, and third anime I ever watched (after Gundam, SDF Macross and Neon Genesis: Evangelion) It along with the others and Cowboy Bebop and started my life long love of anime, and now I have about 2500 - 3000 watched anime series and movies under my belt. I love it and I love that kids these days can grow up loving anime without the stigmas I had to endure, as it's becoming more mainstream and accepted, just like gaming has. I just pray that the classics like these and the anime industry as a whole never caves to the western social pressures of the toxic world views we have in our western countries, and that Japan continues to produce free and pure ART like this. I love Anime, and I hope it lasts forever, long after I'm dead and gone.
The Major (Kusanagi) has a human brain and so her consciousness is human. To her, her body is just another suit.
Wasn’t The Matrix directly inspired by this.
PLEASE CHECK OUT “INNOCENCE” Or known in the US as Ghost In The Shell 2. You won’t be disappointed.
From what I heard the manga is more sexual, and in a weird way even though the stream of consciousness in terms of science and technology speculations combined with philosophy is high brow, that part of it was a bit lower brow compared to the anime. Not sure.
If you wanna see Stand Alone Complex I can highly recommend going straight to the “Second Gig” or second season.
"I feel like they buit that humongous world and we just saw a screen shot of it"
The secret to world building.
Nothing is introduced or explained and you've got the feeling you're just granted a glimpse like it existed before and it will continue existing after the story is over.
They have that typist prosthetic to code/access system that they are not allowed to have "direct" cyberbrain connection.
like an infected system like the puppeteer system.
my mind scramples every time I watch this movie it gives me every platonic theory notion...
One of the greatest movies of all time. Starts when it needs to start, ends when it needs to.
Never realized it, but this probably influenced the Overlord DLC for Mass Effect 2, the revelation at the ending of that DLC reminds me a lot of the concept and even the art of this movie, MAN, this is awesome!
You need to watch GITS 2 ‘Innocence’. The animation is absolutely stunning. Also there’s a storyline within GITS Stand Alone Complex, that deals with the Major’s backstory.
I feel the guy in the middle so much, he trying to show a deep phylosophical cyberpunk anime to his friends and they went 51 minutes like "she was naked" xd! can you watch Serial Experiments Lain next?
Now you have to react to the second one hahaha
I really would love to see you all watch S.A.C. because there is levels to this show. You get a feeling of close comfort within Section 9 on here but they take it to a far new level in the series. It's hard to explain really. The show really has a ensemble cast feeling to it. A lot of the world building is so uniquely familiar to this movie and yet you understand how the world works without knowing the technology. I highly suggest it, and Solid State Society and Innocence, too!
I really want to met the Tachikomas! I think you all would LOVE them!!! They hold a special place in my heart!!!
cool, though you guys should watch gohst in the shell stand alone complex it still remains one of my favourite anime series and even has a few of the VA's from the film return to play their characters
What show sorry I only watch shows like One Punch Man and Hunter x Hunter.
Let’s be real if a more well known show like Steins Gate can’t win a poll and Psycho-pass hasn’t even been put on a poll what chance does this show have.
