Why is Production I.G. spending their time making more GITS stuff?
They should put their talent to work in making a Battle Angel Alita anime.


Apparently that's going to be James Cameron's next pet project. I would love to see a well animated Battle Angel Alita adaptation though. At the same time if given the choice between Gunnm and GitS I'll take GitS over Gunnm every time.


I don't know man, a well done Alita adaptation would be pretty freaking awesome. We've already gotten great GitS anime after all.

Just look at all the shitty opinions and whiners on here. Lol.

Anyway, Arise was pretty entertaining, so if this is NEW content, it'll probably be pretty good.
Can't wait.

There is so much GITS related stuff already. I'd take Battle Angel over it right now.

First is Psyho-pass
Second is Break Blade
And now Third is GITS:Arise ?????????????????

WTF ARE YOU DOING I.G.????????

Their should make new entry GITS rather than useless re-release dammit

I.G. have so much money but they just waste their talent for this bullshit

F**K


Yes, 3rd gig would be wayyyyy better then arise which is really weak in terms of character development and pacing. :/ [also the music, as often as I've claimed to like Cornelius in the past... Yoko Kanno fits the world so. much. better.]

Precisely. Gotta be positive. I'll look forward to more Togusa and those delicious Sawashiro logicomas.

I can't wait!

Stupid question, but is Arise related to SAC at all? I've always put aside watching the films due to not having seen SAC.
Not really, but sort of. Continuity-wise, no relation, but it certainly does setting-wise feel as if Arise was written as a sort of alternate-world prequel to SAC.

But there are no actual links. There are a few unimportant homages and references, and a few similar themes/storylines, but that's relatively superficial stuff.


I'm speechless.

Nope, Arise and SAC are two completely different series. Arise is more of a "prequel" - how the Major became a badass and how Section 9 came together and met.

GITS Arise Again?
Production I.G Have So Many Money but they're Spending it for this Arise TV Anime??
Im Getting Tired of Watching that (even if it's not on my list).
They Should add some seasons of Their Awesomes Animes not GITS again. It gets me Freakily BAKA.

Well, if I have to guess, the Major transferring from military to public service and the creation of Section 9 aren't "unimportant homages and references". They are important and have their place in the GitS universe. The execution (in ARISE) is another issue.

I would argue that it isnt even a prequel because they fuck with canon by introducing togusa this early, when he actually joined section 9 long after it was already established.

its not a prequel, just some random story someone made up that takes place in the GITS universe

I'm wondering if this'll be like SAC. In that, there's the original, but then there's the TV version with an entirely different storyline. Because I really don't want this to be Arise, just cut up into multiple episodes. I still have to finish Arise.

I don't mind the storytelling in the new episodes but they lack the grittiness and dirtiness of the original film. I am not sure why they decided to change the environment so heavily for the SAC and Arise series, but I was pretty disappointed.

take a quick glance at the staff making it, its not got a chance in hell to be anything of the same caliber as SAC or the oishi movies

Thanks for translating, z.

I've seen two movies, so my thoughts could change.

For now, the culprit is continuity - the fact that arise precedes sac yet is unrelated. I see one, continuous plot. What homage, reference, or storyline indicates otherwise?

News Update
The official site was updated today to indicate that Ghost in the Shell: Arise will broadcast under the title Ghost in the Shell Arise - Alternative Architecture. The series will air starting April 5 as a recompilation of the movies for TV broadcast (totaling 8 episodes) with two additional episodes of original content. These episodes will connect the previous Arise movies with the upcoming Ghost in the Shell movie scheduled to premiere this Summer.

Not sure how I feel about the news until I see the two new episodes myself but hopefully will be good. It's really important to get them directed right so that it stays connected to the upcoming movie this Summer.

every single gits entry seems to be re-hasing ideas that were previously explored, and then there are also scenes that are nearly exactly the same, like motoko jacking into a bi-ped tank and shit, and re-hashing all the same philosophical shit.

I love gits, but it's kinda getting old.

I highly doubt that we're gonna get new material. Probably just a recut to make people aware of GITS until the new movie airs...

Only two scenes, Major jumping of a bulding and facing off a take. And when it comes to philosophy, it's the dualism that's repeated but that's central to the franchise. That's pretty much it.

Ghost in the Shell is my favorite anime franchise.
I should be hyped for this.
I am not somehow.

Arise was alright, but nowhere near Stand Alone Complex.
Can i just get 3rd GIG instead?

Oh god, i'm being a whiny bitch, aren't i?

Aw shit, o lawd, shoot me, i've become too cynical.
