The first season deals with themes that uncannily predicted a lot of the problems we are now realizing always-on social networking brings with it, and it was years before facebook/twitter even existed.īut going back to op's question, this kind of fare is definitely not for everybody.


But they are still very respectful of your intelligence and are not afraid to go head-first into heavy themes. The SAC series have more time to flesh-out the themes and the world. Watch full movie and download Ghost in the Shell (Dub) - Koukaku Kidoutai (Dub) online on Masteranime for free without downloading. As a fan of the series though, Id like to check it out, so Im going to give in to it. I think this might be the movie I've watched the most in my life, with over 30 viewings in total. Sounds as if no dub (not a problem for most, but I prefer dubs), no original GitS (which it sounds like both the UK and JPN release of 2.0 include - I own the very old DVD, and the special edition is 20 (the same price as the 2.0 blu)). Subsequent viewings started clearing some parts of the plot up and I started paying more attention to the philosophical themes throughout. I originally purchased the film as the trailers made it look visually stunning -which it was- and action-packed, which turned out not to be the case and I remember being very disappointed as a teen for the lack of action and for having had all major themes fly over my head. Combined with the moody and lived-in cyberpunk near-future makes for a very engaging storytelling canvas. GitS has always been my go-to example of intelligent science fiction.
