Good to see movement on this. Really interested to know what the designs will look like. More realistic 3D or cel-shaded? Maybe go more Pixar cartoon-esque?

I wonder if they'll update it with all the (semi) autonomous vehicles that even civilians have these days.

I wonder how much of the older stuff will be rehashed into it. All the self-referencing gets a bit tiring for and old fan like me. Does it ever bother you all?

Pretty much the same story about release as before but with a March 2019 publication date.

I don't mind the retelling so much. Since a lot of them are (pseudo) reboots of the story they are telling the same stories with a new spin on them.

I liked the variation on the terrorist arc in Arise better than the variation with Kuze in 2nd Gig.

I really wish that entertainment had not gotten siloed as it has and that you could see it all easily like you could back in the day (TV).

I can't justify buying netflix for just one show.

Totally agree! (And it wouldn't even be like I could get rid of cable and just buy siloed entertainment ... I'd still have to buy internet access, which they all charge an arm and a leg for.) I missed the last Star Trek series because CBS charged for it. The reality is I'll end up just waiting for SAC_45 to be available in some other format so I can buy it all at once.

Ninth Division. Not Section Nine.

Look like a fun ride though!

Animation seems to lack weight behind it. I also can't help think of them as barbie dolls.
I not sure if it is the art style, or the 3dcg, or the combination.
I'm still excited, but given the recent iterations of gits, I can't help but be a little skeptical 2045 will come even close to the peaks of the original gits:sac.

For me personally, I'm most upset at the lack of yoko kanno. Her scores are masterful.
