I guess what I'm trying to say is that no matter what we apply to this topic, it shouldn't be given to heavily a status on reality until our reality is more closely parralell to that of the stories. Granted, that shouldn't deter any of you from trying to figure it out anyways for the sake of the Gi...

you are indeed correct about technology rising exponentially, since every new technology quickens the pace of making a new one. We do have some similarities compared to that of GitS, we've even come close to the personal camoflauge. I believe it's Japan that's producing it. It's kind of hard to esti...

A cyberbrain is a combination of synthetically grown brain material, original, and anything hardware wise connected to it. (I am pretty sure combinations of side-notes and in movie/show quotes point to this. Running off of memory is a tricky thing, as it can deteriote and falsify itself over time ev...

Well, part of the problem here is what one defines as a soul. Is it something spiritual, or is it the embodyment of ones personalities, memories, experiances, etc. That said, GitS tends to follow the latter. The thing is, in GitS many ghosts, or souls, have been put on a digital plain, and that make...

As per Motoko in the first movie, the reason she was in the mood she was is said in two parts. 1. on the boat with Batou after having been diving. Basically she want to get out and do something, or be something, grand, but she's limited by her current identity that makes up her existence. 2. on the ...

got the special editionr $20 at Best Buy. The sound pretty cool, since i have a killer stereo set and bass (god i love when the armored car explodes) though everyones voices seems so soft compared to background noise and music, regardless of language. The visuals also still have that gritty old-scho...

I greatly admire the amount of art and detail they put the the GiTS movie and GiTS2 Innocence, and wouldn't mind seeing more of that good artwork in the form of another movie. While I have yet to see 2ndGiG I would hope the series to continue, but that all comes down to how well the series does. Man...
