@ADAMSKA001 First, you didn't listened Torukia, Second you should know NOTHING can beat original voices, what you say is like a Japanese would say "Japanese version of Full Metal Jacket is better". French version is very welled dubbed too, but original stills the best
Found a goof: The Water tower that gets hit with Saito's sniper round changes sides of the Jigabachi. When Saito lines up the shot (2:53) you can see the water tower on the LEFT side of the chopper, then when the bullet passes through the cockpit and hits the tower (2:57) it's on the right of the chopper, then switches back when it's leaking water from the bullet hole on the left of the chopper again (3:01 and on).
I'm just wondering, what's so bad about it? I mean sure the Tachikoma voices can get on my nerves sometimes but aside from that I don't see any problems. This dub is incredible compared to some of the others out there. Have you heard the Naruto dub? Now THAT one was fucking horrible, but compared to dubs like that the GITS dub is amazing.
I agree with you British, I like the GITS dub and the original japanese voices equally. I think GITS is a rare exception of where the dub is good, (that and Cowboy Bebop).
The English dub in GiTS are the only dub i would ever watch over jap/subs. tachikomas are FUCKING annoying in either, but i love the english dubs for GiTS
To explain why the ceiling didn't budge and the Major could hold down the helicopter:
The "Jigabachi" is a high performance military combat helicopter, not a heavy lift helo. As powerful as it seems, it's rate of climb is very limited. And because acceleration is related to force, even a small amount of downward force would keep it from accelerating upward. The Major would only have to exert a force of 2000 to 3000 lbs to hold down the 45000 lb helicopter. The wall was definately strong enough.
just a statement about saito: this isnt 1 of his best shots, even from the manga, i, personally, think saitos' best shot was on solid state society, when he took out the cambodian merc. i can't remember his name, "poot- jung" or something, still, awesome vid, kudos, good quality. and nice audio format, what program did you use?
LYRICS part 2 (part 1 is \/ below) FLIES THROUGH THE BORDERLINE BETWEEN THE REAL AND THE IMAGINARY, I dared to pick up the phone which no one had ever tried to pick up, memories have then grown thinner, and the air smells of rain and mystery. Prophecy is the fear in knowing things beforehand Above the sky and all material things, we cant help but stay here.
prophecy is the fear in knowing things beforehand, Above the sky and all material things, we cant help but stay here. A BIRD FLIES OVER THE BORDERLINE. Glancing over a thousand earths, gravity sets me free, tempts me in, and keeps me at a loss. With electrons arcing away, the world gets entangled like a grapevine,twisting a molecule's arm, so its fit to the shape of my chest, Throwing myself off the wharf, sliding over the borderline between the real and the imaginary, THE BIRD FLIES
well, she is a full body cyborg and has full installs of fire control software, maybe she was gonna snipe a sensitive part w/her pistol?(5mm high-velocity Armor Piercing) ...who knows, but The Major has gone up against tanks, an arm-suit, and in this case, an anti-tank helicopter...shes INVINCIBLE.
I don't think The Major would have been very invincible had that Jigabachi let loose its cannon. XP
The line tying The Major to the Jigabachi appears to be slacked, indicating the helicopter was hovering to some degree while she held it, except for the drag across the rooftop and the final tug of course. The line might just have been quite heavy however, making it appear to be slacked.
I just find it hard to imagine that tiny ledge or The Major's legs withstanding that amount of compression.
How many times do I have to say this?...SHES NOT HUMAN.....her legs lift hundreds if not thousands times more weight than a human and not to mention being made of steel she must weigh a TON (unlike regular cyborgs shes not made to emulate a human in weight or strength) shes a fully loaded killing machine designed from the ground up for COMBAT (@ 02:40 u can see the jigabachis pullin w all its got)
I'm well aware Motoko has a very high quality, military grade cyber-body, but still, every material has its limits, if not the body's legs, then the concrete block holding her back.
This is one of my favorite GITS:SAC 2nd Gig episodes. I only pointed out a small detail that was bugging me to see what other people might think as it had been addressed in an earlier post.
Lol, she shot at the tank's hatch with that pistol in GITS:SAC ep 2, and do anything against the armor, but I guess it's better than falling on her ass after letting go of the line and sitting there.
Yeah it's the very first song in the 2nd OST...it's very good. I got it at Akon 2004 I think. I got both OST's from the series, I got the movies one and two...man am I glad to buy all of that merchandise. I love ghost in the shell, and you can tell I do because of my youtube name :)
In fact people call me that...it's my nickname for life. I plan on getting a tattoo on my back.
I really love the GITS serie 'n films but can somebody tell where this scene originates from. if you can plz tell me and here by I thank you for your effort
This show amazed the absolute hell out of me when I first saw it back in '04! Very few anime can stand up to it's depth in storytelling, animation, acting, and believability. Praises for Production I.G.
I love this song as well... But it was disappointing to see that it isn't exactly Yoko Kanno's work. The original song she used is Battersea by Hooverphonic. Give it a try too, it's a really good song, although a bit different. ^^
i kno that really pissed me off that she didnt use her own work but i love this as well battersea is really good but i love this too there both really good songs
Same song: youtube.com/watch?v=DbXm40-pZXg#

She took the gun out on instinct. She holsters it after the chopper's autopilot was overridden, wondering why she took it out.
