Hello there!

Bit of a newbie to anime but I'm really enjoying what I've seen so far and so I want to explore further!

I'm looking for a more adult orientated (not hentai) anime series or film with a cyberpunk setting - if possible something similar to Ghost In The Shell or Cyber City Oedeo 808?

EDIT: Sorry to make this more difficult and nichey, but I really enjoy the late 80s/early 90's stuff, bonus points for series/films from that period
Thanks in advance and Happy Holidays :)!

Also, Serial Experiments Lain, Ergo Proxy, Psycho-Pass, Cowboy Bebop, Texhnolyze.
Even Gankutsuou, if it counts, as it has has a few cyberpunk touches to it.

Oh, sorry didn't check list.

Hm... what about *Galaxy Express 999*, *Queen Emerldas*, *Harlock* [ check Leiji Matsumoto's works XD ].

Alita and Ergo Proxy

and also Tsutomu Nihei works [ but they're mangas ]

I'd recommend the Bubblegum Crysis Tokyo 2040 version though.

The Third: Aoi Hitomi no Shoujo might also fit to the genre.
Also, Mezzo DSA. It has a hentai side story that is independent from the main series (Mezzo Forte).

Which Ghost in the Shell did you watch? Because there's the movie of 1995, some sequels to the movie, the Arise franchise which isn't a big deal and the Standalone Complex series, and they're awesome.

You can try Serial Experiments Lain and Texhnolyze as well.

I've seen the movies, have heard of the SAC series but never got round to watching it, though it's on my to watch list! I'll be checking the other 2 recommendations out as well as they come up a lot.

Done some further searching and found Armitage III, AD Police, Angel Cop and Genocyber seem to be in the right direction!
