Ghost in the Shell

How come no other women besides the Major are allowed in Section 9?

>he thinks the major is a woman

I just watched the first ep of standalone complex, i hope they’re all as good as the first. i’ve only seen the movie a few times

It was great, my only gripe is that I preferred the art style of the movie.

The Major is a borderline mary sue, hyper competent, master level hacker, tactical espionage, detective work, and combat.
Section 9 is made up of the people she deemed able to keep up with her while she does 80% of the work. If a women could do it, she would have hired them.

Stand Alone Complex is kino. There really isn't any GitS media thats bad, just different. SAC 1 I think is a better story than SAC 2, but SAC 2 has much better action.
Even Arise isn't bad. It just takes things in a bit of different direction and tone. Overall bland, but if you want more GitS, its there.

Arise was worse than the movie.
Even when the movie's purpose was to try to make saying that you consent to something cool and hip which was strange.

I don't know what you're talking about. This never happened. It was an April Fools joke.

At least the main message of Arise wasn’t ‘humanity good, technology bad’.

Why the fuck would gender still beva concept in an age of cyberization. I nean there's no need to procreate when you can skirt death by transferring into prosthetic, which ultimately means procreation becomes a relic of the past.

GitS is set at the early stages of cyberization. All of the members of Section 9 are basically military experiments. Full body cyberization isn't commonplace, I think The Major is the only one even depicted in all of GitS. Plenty of cyber brains, but thats mostly just putting a bunch of hardware around the wetware.

Good point, and I do remember Togusa being a traditional fleshie as he expressly maintained that he wanted to raise a family.
Oh, has there been any official announcements on the next GiTS series recently?

The white haired dude is also fully cyborg I think.

Batou or The Chief?
I think Batou still has some fleshy bits, he definitely gets injured easier than The Major. And I'm fairly certain The Chief is just cyber brained.

No, the antagonist of season 2.

Oh, yeah you're probably right

Innocence was pretty bad, as it goes.

>Different/divergent =/= bad
For the sake of argument lets just settle at bland plot-wise, but the animation including the CGI, was stellar.

I'll meet you halfway, and say that as a fan of the movie and SAC, I was disappointed.
There was no need to go high-concept when the baseline of the world is already so interesting.

And using the CGI felt like a philosophical, rather than a production decision.

Did you simply miss not having a scantily clad Major on-screen or the plot really that bad to you?

This.

I didn't like the navel-gazing aspect. Or the storyboarding.

Lack of a Major was probably a necessary evil.

S.A.C. had a fantastic soundtrack

I wanna find out

Not the user you were talking to, but I loved innocence as a stand alone experience.

I just rememebered there was supposed to be a video game coming out based on GitS
I remember it had a remix of an Imagine Dragons song in the trailer and I never heard anymore about it.
I was pretty hyped about playing as a section 9 operative or something but it seemed to just vanish.

There was, like 3 SAC games. One on PSP, one online FPS.
And non of them where good

I wonder if they made her menstrual cycle app. That simulates the experience of being on her period.

The lead in, and especially the Yakuza fight was awesome.

If it was perfect for, and satisfied someone who's not me, good for them.

What would be the point of that if she can’t reproduce?

In a sense yes but the fact she have years (decade ?) of combat/counter-terrorism experience and she's a full cyborg compensate that and made it okay. Not like some character that are new at something and are automatically the best at it because they are special.

That part pissed me of along with Major backstory.
GiTS was never against transhumanism.
