How was it?
>>135079376
Arise on the whole is very good.
The new character designs are a little meh.
Maaya's Major is the best yet, too bad she's a butterface.
What's better, watching Alternative Architecture or the four OVAs and the ast two episodes of AA?
>>135079376
The explody parts were good, the talky parts, not so much.
The whole thing about cyborgs becoming obsolete was great and reminded me of Deus Ex but they didn't focus much on it so it felt like a waste
>>135079556
The four OVA and then the two episodes of AA.
For some idiotic reason AA is not in chronological orden and it really doesn't help with the story telling at all since it was not meant to be like that from the begining.
Still haven't seen Arise. Can't get over visuals and more importantno Origa
>>135079556
I'd say the OVAs + AAA's Pyrophoric Cult but in this order (the order AAA was broadcast in)
Ghost Stands Alone (OVA 4)
Ghost Pain (OVA 1)
Ghost Whispers (OVA 2)
Ghost Tears (OVA 3)
Pyrophoric Cult (AAA 9 &10)
TNM
The AAA versions of the OVAs are cut a tad short to fit into broadcast length. I really, really like the order though.

I actually disagree, having the story get book-ended by Ghost Stands Alone and the Pyrophoric Cult stories is really nice as it adds to the "mystery" about the Major's missing memories and the whole Firestarter bit.
Anyways, I leave it to you anon, but this is my $0.02.

Cheers. About time I got back into GITS.
So the TV series didn't add anything new besides the two original episodes?
>>135079776
You know, I was the same, but once the movie came out, I buckled down and watched it.
Ended up really enjoying it. I'd rank it on almost same level as S.A.C.'s "Complex Episodes"
>>135079826
A great OP!
>>135079895
Guess I'll see that in episodes 9 and 10 after I'm done with the OVAs.

>>135079577
Something to look forward to then. Great.

How is the Ghost in the Shell manga?
> Ubukata wrote this movie
> Still had that garbage music nobody likes
Going to suffer through this tomorrow.
there's an actual movie now
I watched AAA 9 and 10 recently and nobody has yet to figure out how to turn the wifi off
>>135079624
>Non-linear storytelling is idiotic now
Shit.
>>135081025
He didn't say that, he said it didn't suit Arise.
Don't be selective.
How can it look worse than the movie, that came out 20 years ago?
>>135083105
Budget and outsourcing animation. Slave labor animation is now outlawed in Japan.

Oh, fucking lord.

I'd say 1995 GitS is one of the best looking anime movies there are from any time.
Why wouldn't it? Do you think anime science made that much progress in that time?
Sex goddess.
Is her vagina modular?
Yea I'm not even going to try to touch it and Arise.
Trailer to the new movie with that utter garbage "music" almost exploded my head, holy fuck what a disgrace.
I also noticed the author of that pathetic track in youtube comments and he was actually happy to deliver that stinky piece of shit to GitS fans.
Amazing.
I bet Origa is spinning in her grave and Kanno with Kenji are having nightmares because of it.
Holy shit, I didn't know Origa is dead. Fuck, man.
