The Ghost in the Shell
| maybe its a faithful anime adaptation of the manga this time? |
| Looks like it's going to be in 2D. |

| What is this? A remake of ghost in the shell? |

| @RPWPA while we dont know for sure yet, the choice to announce it using manga panels suggests it will be a direct adaptation of the manga and not a remake of the 1995 film |
| Hopefully it will be 100% faithful even down to the atmosphere and tone, the somewhat goofy Motoko from the manga is my favourite version of the character and i'd love to see her animated |
| Science Saru lmfao. Well we know all the elitists will give this (minimum) 8/10, if not higher. @Andocommando here's some fap material for you |

Wonder if they will censor or remove a certain scene
| @Mattinator95 It's Science SARU, and while idk if Yuasa himself will direct this, I think there's a very real possibility they won't censor it. |
| Only gripe is 2026 |
| That's quite some time to wait. |
| science saru, i have high expectations |

| I'm still weirded out that Saru is the studio instead of I.G. Also, Saru has a history with overloading their employee, another reason I'd prefer I.G over them anytime. https://www.cartoonbrew.com/artist-rights/former-science-saru-animator-studios-workload-led-to-horror-stories-207324.html |

| @fudish123 IG is producing this though. I think they're working together. |
 |
| 2 year wait AHHHHHHHHHHHHH |
  |
| If done right, it will be kino. Heck, I will be surprised if it won't be done right. Just look at it this way: new 2D GitS anime, adapting the original manga, done by Science SARU that has been recently acquired by TOHO. What can go wrong? |
| It's kinda crazy after all this time they NEVER probably adapted shirow masamune GITS. |
Reply to drakenation
@Johan That's what happens when 90% of the industry output is brain-dead happy-go-lucky shounen crap that is more derivative than an AI-generated story derived from an AI-generated prompt.
| @drakenation very sane and rational comment |

| @Talgikiwi But the studio is still Saru. I.G is taking the role of producer and based on the article, Saru does not take their anime lightly, they're always big productions, but they don't have the necessary staff to do so healthy (and that's to blame the industry as a whole which pays dimes to most studios), so yeah, let us pray this won't go into a production chaos. At least, if they adapt the manga faithfully, it'll probably struggle to reach 24 episodes, so nightmare is "over". |
| It will be a generic conveyor-tier trash. Only original GITS movie from 1995 was great, both GITS seasons were pretty weak and naive, even second GITS movie from 2004 was much weaker, it was just slightly good. After 'remake' seasons and two attempts for a cash grab with 'remaster' of original GITS and passable at best Hollywood movie there is no any hope. |
| So another remake? Perhaps retconning things again, in the "great" tradition of comic books and movie and film adaptations? Funny how we are still catching up to the time periods of so much "sci fi/sci possible" in real life. Still a handful of years off from GHosts 2029 and the 2030s of 1st and 2nd gig, but as long as I can have robo limbs and retire while plugged into an adult fantasy dark mmorpg, so be it! lol ^<^ |
| Hoping its something similar to stand alone complex. |
| I don't have much in terms of expectations since we still have no info on who will be helming this, but it's Saru so I am sure it will at least look miles better than Sola's crap. Though I am very interested in seeing the manga adapted faithfully for the first time. |

| @Lawgun You're either trolling or full of crap, maybe even both. Calling Saru generic is a stretch way beyond reality and shows how you've never read the manga. |

| @BigBossQb It won't. It'll be something similar, I hope, to the ps1 games FMV. All GITS anime were edgy and overly serious, which is NOT how the manga is. I really suggest you to read it before getting disappointed. |
| Well, I don't think it will be a hit...the PS1 game animation was good, so if it was an anime adaptation at that level, I'd probably watch it every week. |
        |
| Not a fan of SARU, I dislike the unshaded, blob-like quality of their animation. And Yuasa loves making things more pretentious than they have to be. I'll probably skip this one. |

| @AnchientProphet2 Judging by the teaser trailer and KV, it'll be a faithful adaptation rather than retconning SAC again like Arise and SAC 2045 did. |

| They made one 'outstanding' trash anime - Devilman: Crybaby and a very few of some so-so niche anime when all of the rest are really generic so I don't know what about you talking with your unhealthy delusions. And I don't see how quality of manga is related to the quality of anime which could become literally anything. I didn't even check on which studio exactly decided to fail measurably in making 'remake' of GITS since it's about TIMES which have changed but now when you remind me about Saru I am certain that it will be unbelievable trash since this studio has it in its nature. |
| reminder that yuasa is no longer with science saru https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/fsz1h7/news_masaaki_yuasa_resigns_from_president_of/ so all those simple character designs from yuasa is no longer with science saru in the future science saru is making dandadan anime too anyway |

| @Lawgun Your value judgement is your own. The studio makes top tier anime, whether you like them or not, and I'm not a fan of their style, but I know a good studio when I see one. I have no "Unhealthy delusions". About the manga, both the teaser and KV heavily hints on this anime being faithful to the manga. It's not a "remake" since GITS was never actually properly adapted. Mamoru created something of his own, and so did SAC. Saru doesn"t make "unbelievable trash", that's GEMBA and Deen. |

| @fudish123 Hmmm well, good. It should at least bring the franchise back into the public mindframe and make it relevant again. Whom knows, if its successful, we might finally get something else actually new and great from GiTS too down the line. Good stuff. ^<^ |
| Just noticed this is a thing, decently hyped already. Hopefully it's gonna be more like the original movie and focus on philosophical themes. |
This dance is the pinnacle of human achievement. |
| I hope it's faithful and accurate to the manga. |
| Hoping it's 2D and animated like the cutscenes of that ps1 game, expecting a fusion of Arise and sac 2045. |
| I have high expectations for this, it seems like its going to be a big budget faithful adaptation of the manga. Theres been so much success with adaptations of GitS, but never a faithful adaptation of the manga. They all implemented their own ideas and style different from the source material. With how culturally significant GitS has become over the years this is well deserved, and hope they dont skimp or cut corners. Sure wish they didnt announce these so early though, hope its at least early 2026 but im sure it all depends on how production goes. Im definitely in agreement with the people hoping it ends up looking similar to the ps1 games cutscenes which were the most faithful to the manga. Might end up replacing the 96’ film on my favorites if they pull it off. |
