I'm really loving the amount of GitS I'm seeing on the front page.
Stoicmasshole1
The world needs more Motoko Kusanagi.
AbsurdIdol
More like ghost in a boobs. A,mm'i'righh..
CharHD
The only series you really need. Deep exploration of existential issues, AI and cyberization
iPez
I wish someone made a gif of mokoto broken like murphy in robocop 2.

Just show me the real star, Batou.

I liked Ghost in the Shell and so, and this is well drawn, but the distortion animation adds nothing to it.
AJerkyMcJerkface
Major. Best girl.
Well...she's usually only girl but okay. :D
AdmJota
Do the tachikoma count?
I’d like to change my vote.
TupacAintDead
If you squint your eyes just right, it looks like the boobs are jiggling.
martineb72
It was the little robots that stand out to me. Tachikoma were more interesting than the rest of the story.
Dabumblebee
I can hear the glitch.
mikeatike
Gits good
barnwolf
Interestingly enough this gif causes my computer fan to spike. Probably graphics card?
Talligan
That doesn't look like scarjo
tonyconfirmed
live action is underrated.
Everfearful
Fun fact: Masamune Shirow (yes, with the w), creator if GitS and Appleseed, is also a prolific hentai artist.
kojenk
This is him too right?
Yes indeed.
jennym123
Reeeeeaally?
Counterfit
Dude's drawn basically nothing but porn since GitS 2: Man-Machine Interface
And drawn with every bit as much love and care as the mainstream works.
He drew a lot of well drawn nudity and sex for the GiTs comic too. Will PM you a page whem i find it
Crazy49er
Top tier anime, good story/characters/animation..no loli bullshit
hartmonica
Right just female cop in prostitute’s clothes bullshit. http://planetjinxatron.com/ghost-shell-whats-outfit-major/
You probably shouldn't look at what Masamune Shirow draws now
xizar
Until the last couple of minutes and you wonder just how hard Batou *really* looked for a new shell.
Tsumino79
uh... pretty sure the shell she is in at the end of the film is child like
Dwarficus
GitS:SAC for the win. Just recently got it on bluray, and damn, it's still amazing. (GitS:SAC was the first series based on the manga)
whiskeywonka
but... i like some of that
Teasaurus
But only for headpats
anonnona887
Uh...did uou forget about the Tachikomas?
The Tachikoma were comic relief, in no way loli, sexualized or falling under overused anime tropes.
ScariestOfButts
Along with Cowboy Bebop, Akira, Paprika, and pretty much anything Studio Ghibli.

baumgartnercason1337
Trigun all the way.
Its not Studio Ghibli, but you might like "Summer Wars" movie from 2009. Cool internet story, reminds me of Ready Player One a bit.
camn333
Second that, great movie indeed.

Kenshin OVA, Armitage III, Tenchi Muyo, Project A-ko, Bubblegum crisis, Phantom Cop quest, Oh my Goodness!,Tank Police, Ranma 1/2, El-Hazard

HitlersRupturedColon
It's called a "shota"
Blanxmarx
Ed is no loli. Ed is radical.
poopslave
Great list. Probably a suuuuper unpopular opinion but I'd like to see a live action Akira attempted.
Gossgoss
Last I checked Taika Waititi is working on it. "Summer 2021" supposedly coming out.
Fuuuuuuck!!!! I just saw a post referring to this. What are the fucking odds!?!?!!? Hell yeah!!! Seriously though that really weirded me out
TheEdenist
Did somebody say loli
RYNOCIRATORV5
Did somebody say sirens
DoggieSan
MichaelMars
And an amazing soundtrack, I discovered ORIGA because of the show :D
ProfessorKittyhawk
Shame she passed from cancer a few years ago. Loved her voice. New series coming next year won't be the same without her singing.
No it will not :/ but hopefully they can at least get Yoko Kanno to do some of the tracks
That is one thing I hope for. Yoko Kanno produces some sick tracks. The SAC soundtracks were what I listened to through a lot of high school
sacrosanctt
Nothing drives me away from anime more than loli bullshit and filler episodes
MisterKetch
Not all filler is bad, sometimes anime only arcs can be fun. All about being written well and feeling like it belongs.
PorneliusHubertII
Filler episodes arent a problem if you look up the episode wikis. And if you let loli style bother you you will miss out on some great stori
xFiDgetx
I love the story ideas of anime but the dialogue is just so terrible. I fucking hate sudden, exhaustive exposition. Can't do it.
Richarmeleon
Time for a beach harem.
ShouldersDeepInAHorse
Nothing drives me away like internet weeb morons desperately defending their loli fetish with their pants around their ankles.
MakoFR18
Hey were not all like that. I’ll have you know my pants are off entirely.
Ravioli Ravioli don't lewd the cartoon Lolis
It’s legal if they cant catch me
Petedogs
Don’t give them any ideas.
TheBlackKaiser
The live action movie was ok, not great, but fine.
Rivalyn
The only thing I really had to complain about with it was that some of the FX shots just don't translate well to the small screen.
Yeah on a scale of 1-10 I rate it as worth the price to rent at Redbox but maybe buy it from Wal-Mart bargain bin.
it was pretty good for a LAA
Agreed they used too many direct scenes from the original masterpiece. Also the story didn't blend all to well into the ghost universe.
It's weird to me that Hollywood often does this. Pick up a popular property, and then not make a movie for the fans.
They just retell the same story with a different coat of paint... I answered my own question and it made me sad
Deadpoolio7
Whatever else, it looks mesmerising
VonSnootingham
They absolutely NAILED the visuals and aesthetic. But the story was all wrong. It was written from a western "lone hero" perspective (1/2)
where individualism is important which is in direct contrast from the original's very eastern idea of subsumining into the whole (2/2)
I mean, aside from the fact that being a 2 hour hollywood movie meant it had to be an action thriller rather than existentialist thinkpiece
I really liked it. I may also have an unnaturally strong crush on Scarlett Johansson.
sillywillyfillybananapants
“Unnaturally” it’s totally natural
JewishMonk
Have any of you weebs seen Ergo Proxy? How was it? I'm on a cyberpunk kick in prep for Shadowrun 6.
art278331
I have a bad feeling about SR6 given what we know so far, seems CGL did not listen to the community. I'm probably gonna stick SR5 for a bit
Suit yourself. I haven't been happy with SR since 2e, but I keep hoping that maybe there will eventually be a game as good as the fluff
And this one is supposed to be trimmed down from 5e. That doesn't mean it'll be good, but it might be a step in the right direction.
SoshiGenkaku
Shadowrun 6? I don’t wanna buy more books
I don't intend to buy more than the one. It needs to prove that it's worth money first.
watch it.
I've seen the first two episodes so far. Can't say I'm in love with the tough-as-nails, cant-be-shaken protagonist, but I love the aesthetic
Maybe she'll grow on me
superiorninja
Shadowrun 6? There's new shadowrun game?!!
Not yet. Some people have got a quickstart rulebook, but I think they're in the final stage of testing before they release. I hope it's good
As far as story went it stunk, it got the right vibes and tropes though.
That's all I care about, really. As long as it feels good and gives me ideas for general cyberpunkage, I can deal with weak stories
You might also want to check out 'Blame!' Its got a pretty interesting Netflix adaptation film. Also the soundtrack is dope.
I think Blame is on my watch list. I can dig a good soundtrack. I really liked Panty and Stocking for the tunes.
RandomUserC137
Dragged on but pretty good overall. Also, check out Technolyze (sp?) for cyberscape grit.
stresstwig
i loved it.
jojo558
I would also recommend Psychopass as it is one of my personal favorites
Season 1 was amazing. After that it was kinda OK. Haven't watched the movie yet.
My brother wouldn't shut up about that one a few years ago. I'll check it out. Thanks.
No problem. I hope you enjoy it :)
sora3087
How about Serial Experiments Lain
Ooh, I missed that one. Thanks
ooh, that one messed with my head and i need to watch again.
Crydsch
.
EtoHigeGamer
it was excellent but I ran out of eps a long while back so I never finished it I think.
What did you like about it?
hell no im not spoiling it you really need to watch it lol too many amazing revealing scenes where you are just like "HOLY SHIIIIIII"
I dunno, man. I'm not usually impressed by anime. GitS was a breath of fresh air. I'll give it a shot.
If you read manga read a Manga called Solo Leveling.
Griggslyadams
I LOVE ERGO PROXY SO MUCH. IT'S SO GOOD.
Wow. Didn't expect that strong of a reaction. I guess I have to watch it then. Any other good cyberpunk shit?
applegeek48
Ergo proxy is definitely worth it.
Psycho-Pass and Heat Guy J. Also Ghost in the Shell: Arise if you've not already seen it.
I was the original, but I haven't seen the follow-ups. I assume they're comparable?
TheBurritoConfederacy
Parasite Dolls, Bubblegum Crisis, Serial Experiments Lain, Appleseed.
Bubblegum Crisis and Appleseed are already on my short list. They made a shitload of Appleseed spinoffs.
BroseidonKingOfTheBros
I relaly need to rewatch Lain. I remember that being a bit of a mind fuck
DarkJaeger
Aside from The Matrix, or Johnny Mnemonic? Also, SR6? Really, when did that drop?
A week or so ago. It's not out yet, but the announcement was made. Apparently the game is getting a much-needed trim. I just hope that means
that the rules are being made to fit the game. I hope they're not just cutting rules out hoping that they'll find a game under all that.
