in the shell

No I doubt it was the same man that killed Kuze, see what I said above, but I'd bet the assassin you're referring to from 1st Gig is some kind of government-paid man who takes care of the dirty work like eliminating Nanao A and doing whatever it was he must have done to Serano. He could have been on...

Hey everyone, I just got finished watching a subbed copy of Solid State Society. I thought the movie was excellent, my favorite part being where Togusa was taking his daughter to the hospital... However, at the very end, when Batou and the Major are looking out at Niihama and the camera is pulling b...

Wasn't the man that killed Kuze from the American Empire? He gave that speech about docile consumers and that revolutionary leaders were too hard to keep tabs on. Maybe I just figured he was from the AE considering that and the snobby way he spoke...also, wasn't he the original partner of the CIA ma...

Both Date of Rebirth and Player are beautifully sung, but Player just takes the cake. It's extremely haunting, plus it continues with the trend of the lyrics being mostly in Russian. For reference, the shorter TV Size is used in the Solid State Society trailer. And yes, Ilaria Graziano is amazing, I...

Hey just to let everyone here know, I ordered the SSS OST direct from Japan and it got here on Friday, 24 November. It is incredible, as I assumed it would be. Also, the tracks Tempest and Human Step - Aramaki's Theme are both reused from their appearances in 2nd Gig. If anyone has any other questio...

I found a site that has two tracks available for d/l. They are really sweet but I'm not sure how legal the whole thing is.

The tracks are Player and the ending song, I forget the name. The only bad thing is Player is Tv Size so its only about a minute and a half but it still blows your mind.

And when you do don't forget the importance of Serano Gen. in the scheme of things.

Also read "A Perfect Day for Bananafish" by J.D. It's been hailed as one of his best short stories and I'd have to agree. Also, if you remember the Tachikoma episode from 1st Gig in which the movie director's cyberbrain is found and the Major enters after a tech refuses to return after hav...

Any chance they'll translate the Visual Guidebook because I saw it in a comic book store here for $40 and I don't know if I should spring for it.

Alright, I post this in teh general forum because I don't know where it would exactly fit. Ok, tonight I was finishing watching 1st Gig with my cousin and for some reason I remembered a scene from an anime. I am almost 100% certain that it is from Ghost in the Shell, but am unsure where it comes fro...

What all can be found on the music archive soundtrack? It's being shipped to me after I recently bought it. Could you PM me a track listing?

It starts approximately 4 minutes and 20 seconds into Chain Reaction. It's a wonderful piece, but I doubt it will get released. Pity.

PS - If you listen closely, it sounds like a rewritten E.S. Posthumus song if you've ever heard of those guys.

Yeah thats a really good track. I've had this same question for some time now. As far as I can tell, it hasn't been released on any O.S.T. which really bums me out. It's possible they'll release an O.S.T. 4 which would contain it but I wouldn't look for it. But not to worry, Solid State Society's sc...

It's to be released 24. November or some time around then, that's the Japanese DVD release. International is something like early 2007
