Ive been a fan of Ghost in the shell since Stand Alone Complex which I started watching in middle school <3 I was drawn in by the animation, characters and action sequences. I've since stayed for this reason but also the incredibly rich story telling, depth of philosophy and cultural sociological relevance, including to this day and more than ever, and first came out.
So many reasons to be excited. wonder what aspect of the manga will be adapted and explored, and if anything from our present world will be folded into it or addressed, and how directly or indirectly referenced. There will also hopefully be a cascade of merch I could possibly afford or find a way to access by some other means.
Gah sometimes I wish I had a 3d printer, I'd make so many figures and statues. Finally get a chance to that is. I have thought about getting into clay figures. All I need is to create wire body frames and learn to sculpt and details faces!
Anyway sharing because I'm joyful about this and for others to know about it.
