I'm looking for scans of the Dark Horse 2004 (second edition) release of the original Ghost in the Shell manga vol. 1. This is the uncensored release. It's on amazon, but the price is $230 for a new copy and still $63 for a used copy. I'm looking for scans of this version, but I've been unable to find any. Does anyone know where I can find it?

They don't exist.
It just 2-3 pages of Major having fun with girls.

Have you checked the pirate bay, nyaa or any torrent site yet?
>>135432199
Checked nyaa, tokyotosho, pb, torrentz.eu, and google. No luck.
Didn't know it was that expensive. Used to have one and never got it back after loaning it to a friend.
A shame that.
>>135432801
Yeah, you could make quite a bit off of it if you still had it.
>>135432857
I wouldn't sell it, but it's sad to know that it'll be so hard to replace.
I got it off AB. I'm surprised it's not available on more common torrent sites.
I might up it for you if this thread is still around when I'm off work.
>>135432903
Yeah, it's a shame their licensing agreement expired. Now kodansha only releases censored editions.
>>135432948
That would be awesome. Or if you can at least link me to it.
Is this it? The 400 MB one?

It could be. Impossible to tell without the ISBN. I'll take a look. Thanks.
>>135433298
I think that may be the censored edition. Don't know for sure though.

I don't have an animebytes account unfortunately and applications are closed. could anyone post a ddl for me? or at least check the ISBN?
>>135433298
I have a copy (with the right ISBN) and the cover is different to that
>>135432124
This saves me scanning my copy.
Sometimes living in a post-communist shithole pays off.
>>135433629
They may have just picked an image off of google though. That may not be the actual cover. It could still be worth checking out.
>>135433767
yeah, even immigrants don't want to go here
>>135433805
It's from MU.
>>135433886
MU?
>>135433460
Yeah that's why I said I'd upload when I got home.
But I decided I'd just download it here and upload it now.

Awesome. Thanks, I really appreciate it.
>>135434062
thanks based anon
Also, this is a version I found online before making this thread. I hadn't gone through it to check if it was uncensored or not, but now that I know the page numbers from anon's download, it is also uncensored.

It looks like it is the 1st edition, but with (a fan translation of?) the 2 explicit pages added (in the wrong order) between p.56 and p.57, and also p.56 replaced
>>135434344
Similar thing, but a different version of the 2 added pages, in the right order, but 56 is the censored version
>>135434902
Oh, thanks for clarifying. the mega link has teh censored and uncensored pages and and the mangago link has just the uncensored, but in the correct order? Neither are the actual 2nd edition though?
>>135434062
Thanks for the deliver, anon
>>135435108
The mega version just needs 056a.jpg and 056b.jpg reordered
When I said p.56 has been replaced, I mean that rather than the censored version of that page from the 1st edition (which is used in managago) it has an explicit version of it
>Neither are the actual 2nd edition though?
Right
>>135435930
Yeah, got it. Do you know if there are any other differences between the 1st and second editions other than the omission of those pages?
