( If ya havnt seen the second GITs series dont read on )
HI just like to add somthing about the descusion on Cyberbrains. I see most of you say that they require most or part of the original brain, well if thats the case explain how Motoko returns after getting her head blown of near the end of the second series ? There would be nothing left of the orignal brain so it would have to be total cybernetic then her ghost gets downloaded into it. She explains how she survived at the end of the ep. |

Got a question. Friend of mine who was interested in watching GITS wanted to know the order to watch -everything- so that it all makes since to him. I told him to start with the GITS movie, then SAC, but from there I wasn't sure.

Also remember that the two movies aren't in the same universe with GITS SAC. The main difference is that the Puppet Master doesn't exist in the TV series—or rather, it's different from the "Puppet Master" that plays a role in SSS. One is more about police cyber drama, while the other delves into a somewhat dystopian vibe.

Been a while since I watched SAC. (Am watching it again...)
When I first saw it, the biggest gripe that I had was with Section 9 being attacked and wiped out by the JMSDF's Umibozu. After I finished it, I told my bro once that I really didn't get it until he told me to watch it again. After I did, I realize that.... Spoiler for The true reason why S9 was "attacked":
BTW, I collected some S9 ID Cards from a few years ago. I only had Batou, Togusa and the original Tachikoma. I'm looking for the others here, so here's what they look like. They weren't released in the other DVDs IIRC. Need to look for them.

Stand Alone Complex Official Logs
Is anyone still waiting for this?
I certainly am. News statement of supposed release of Official Log #2. As of 2008, they haven't released it as I've been told by a Manga Entertainment rep.

So was anyone able to watch the GitS: Koukaku Kidoutai 2.0? The re-do of this 1995 movie suppose to feature a lot of these modern CG improvement for a lot of the significant moment that were featured. I know I'll check it out just because how good GitS: Innocence was in the animated front. Breathe-taking is the phrase to use when describing the visual in GitS: Innocence.

If you already have GitS on bluray, I wouldn't bother buying this unless you're a really hardcore fan. If you have it on DVD but want to get a bluray release and have a ton of money, consider buying the boxset which has both versions. If you don't have GitS at all yet, buy the 2.0 version. Some pictures comparing the "old" (2007) bluray with the 2.0 bluray: http://www.asianblurayguide.com/capt...t_anime_japan/ Some more random pictures (with some 3D stuff that isn't in the above comparison): http://www.mod16.org/randompics/screencaps/gits2/

However, it's pertinent to note that age doesn't mean much to cyborgs, not when cybernetics (and presumably biological technology) has advanced to a stage where an individual could theoretically live forever. How would you date the age of such individuals? By how long their individual ghosts have existed? By their date of biological birth? Or by the age of their cyborg parts? |
