Ghost in the Shell - what is it?

A classic cyborg themed science-fiction anime. Like wine when it ages up becomes more tasty and valuable. The well made character stories make it hotter and hotter. I should mention that the anime has intense soundtracks and musics made by the legendary composer Yoko Kanno and voiced by Origa who literally has an angelic voice. The philosophy of this anime is actually based on Arthur Koestler's The Ghost in the Machine.

Motoko Kusanagi: What if a cyber brain could possibly generate its own ghost, create a soul all by itself? And if it did, just what would be the importance of being human then?
Random anime enjoyer: Oh well, it's so deep. Time to watch whole Ghost In the Shell Series!

Ghost in the Shell - what does it mean?

A mundane anime featuring a big titted super cyborg ninja bitch in a thong and boots who flips around and beats the shit out of men. Or in other words, it's every fat greasy weaboo fucktard's wettest fantasy featured in their most favorite format to jerk off their one inch dongs to. Thumbing this down is also another way of openly admitting you are indeed a fat, greasy, weaboo fucktard with a one inch dong who jerks off to this shitty show.

You: OMFG!!!111! MOTOKO FROM GHOST IN THE SHELL: STAND-ALONE COMPLEX IS SOOOOOO FUCKING HOT! HER OUTFIT IS SO KAWAIIIII! *FAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAP!* OHHHHH MAJORRRRRR!

Ghost in the Shell - meaning

An anime cartoon at airs on Adult Swim Monday through Wednesday at 1:30 AM, and then again at 4:30 AM. Know as a cyberpunk classic, the series is about the time between the two movies "Ghost in the Shell" and "Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence" in which a cyber crime fighting unit known as Section 9 fights cyber warfare and keeps things in check from a cyber hacker known as the "Laughing Man."

I stayed up until 1:30 AM to watch Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex.

Ghost in the Shell - definition

An anime series off of Adult Swim, has two seasons: Ghost in the Shell: SAC and Ghost in the Shell SAC 2nd GIG.

The series receives its subtitle from a theoretical mental complex attributed to the adaptation of cybernetics into the mass public. In the story, 'stand alone complex' is said to describe copies with no original and is portrayed by copycat crimes with no original criminal or, in other words, an imaginary criminal. It also refers to the structure of each first season episode: each episode can be viewed independently of each other, and there is little catch-up (if at all) given in each episode to keep the viewer up to date (unlike many anime series). The individual episodes are discreetly marked either "stand alone" or "complex" in the title screen. The "complex" episodes are more closely entwined with this encompassing plot, and the "stand alone" less so.

Taking place in a fictional city of Japan called New Port City in the year 2030, SAC tells the story of a special operations task-force called Public Security Section 9, or simply "Section 9". The series follows the exploits of Section 9's agents who range from ex-military to ex-police to even ex-mafia as they address each case and how it affects them on a personal level, eventually leading to the mysterious figure dubbed by the media as "The Laughing Man".

If you like nice action, deep stories, utterly BEAUTIFUL animation, and rich dialouge, watch it on Adult Swim. Or better yet, get the DVD releases- Amazon should have them.

Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex is all around cyberpunk and politics. It is not made for the close-minded group of people; take that retarded, grammar-challenged flamer below here as an example.

Ghost in the Shell

An anime film based on the manga by Masamune Shirow.

Shows a world in which the lines between the virtual and real worlds are heavily blended, and many people are now cyborgs.

Ghost in the Shell was hailed as one of the influences for the Matrix

Ghost in the Shell

Very stylish anime set in a future where the boundaries between the virtual and real worlds are blurred, and hence the concept of existence too.

In this world where bodies are interchangable you are generally considered a person if you have a "ghost line"; special code that cannot be artifically created.

The comic discussed different kinds of intelligence and had a fair amount of political commentary. The final appendix opened the very real idea that major Kusanagi, the lead role, must have died along time ago by being copied.

Heavily influenced by Bladerunner, the first ever Cyberpunk novel and arguably the first ever science fiction novel.

We are ghosts in shells.

Ghost in the Shell

Set in the 21st century, Ghost in the Shell is superficially a futuristic spy thriller, dealing with the exploits of Motoko Kusanagi, a major in the covert operations organization "Section 9," which specializes in fighting technology-related crime. Kusanagi herself is almost completely mechanized, a human brain in an artificial body, capable of superhuman feats, and specialized for her job. The setting of Ghost in the Shell is distinctively cyberpunk, similar to that of William Gibson's sprawl trilogy, though Shirow's work is more focused on the ethical and philosophical ramifications of the widespread merging of humanity and technology, the development of artificial intelligence, and an omnipresent computer network, in particular related to human identity and uniqueness. The manga, in particular, tackles these questions head on, as Kusanagi and her colleagues face both external threats and puzzles, and internal conflict over their own nature, being more machines than humans.

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex comes on Adult Swim.
