Motoko's Good Behavior [The 2nd GIG]

[kertaspaper94]

2:24 is that the Major in that picture ? Wait let me figure this out, Motoko Kusanagi was modelled after Batou's wife, which explains why he is almost always by the Major's side.

[ArsenalReady]

I haven't seen this AMV in years but I love it just as much, if not more, than back then. ♥ One of the few good GitS AMVs I've ever seen.

[BruceDSchultes]

hell isn't about death. Its about meaninglessness and the endless war it causes. When it ends the players are reset and the gunfire starts again. A groundhog day that always ends with your own bloody bowels spilled into your broken hands or a cancer eating your bones with fire. Motoko wanted out and she found the rabbit hole.

[SixPathPein]

Motoko sure loves jumping off Buildings...!

[KittyWillCutYou]

@SixPathPein

psssh, it's 'obviously' the most badass way to get around. *rolls eyes* XD

[sleepychildkungfu]

this is shit

[TheMrNinzy]

what episode is that at 0:54?

[Edogy]

@TheMrNinzy 2nd GIG episode 17, "DI: Mother and Child – RED DATA", "Shūkō Boshi RED DATA" (修好母子 RED DATA)

[mmmhyeah]

zero tolerance is an american (i think?) porn label dudes -.-

[2400dimension]

I thought it was an OVA made in 95????

[rutabagasteu]

(deep bow) thank you for the video.

[FreakifiedChildhood]

really nicely done. i haven't seen 2nd Gig yet but now i KNOW i've got to get it ^_^ thanks for the spoilers! great video!

[ConradRDakarn]

@FreakifiedChildhood

If you loved the 1st GiG, you'll go ape over the 2nd one. Character background is covered in some of the episodes and there's some nice twists and turns in the plot. I highly recommend it!

[SoundzBroken]

After this AMV i consider it number 1! on my "TO WATCH"-List

[ihatemeandallofyou]

so is that what happens at the end of GITS? she gets shot?

[ConradRDakarn]

@ihatemeandallofyou

2nd to last episode of the 1st GiG. You should watch both series.

[masterofscotland]

There's a weird episode which I can't exactly remember, but she offers to have sex with this orphan she's picked up on her travels. Anyone remember that? Rather strange

[vetothehalo123]

@masterofscotland yea i do

[cyaners]

@masterofscotland i member that. the reason why was becaus ethe boy asked er what it felt like to have sex with a cyborg and she retorted. do u want to find out?

[ConradRDakarn]

@masterofscotland

I know the episode you're thinking of and she doesn't have sex with him. He's curious if her body is "fully functional" and she jokingly says "wanna find out?"...he replies "nah"

It's when she's abroad trying to track down Hideo Kuza in the 2nd GiG. She ends up saving this kid from getting his arm cut off and then gets roped in to a Triad drug thing (short version).

[Quackles]

Watched everything from ghost in the shell love it :) i got all their dvds, big laughing man catcher in the rye fan, the series reminds me of metal gear solid :)

[NeoAemaeth]

Where the hell is the last scene from? Can't remember anything like that D:

[cyaners]

@NeoAemaeth if i remember correctly it was from the first season of the tv series it was the "series/season" finally then in 2nd gig she comesback

[ConradRDakarn]

@NeoAemaeth

2nd to last Episode of the 1st GiG. It's her "new" body which she didn't actually swap in to but instead controlled remotely.

[Dayonetheone]

What is the name of this song in the intro and the name of the anime?

[rujikin]

Awesome AMV

[PX2k2]

Motoko and balto end up having a family...when did I miss this...

[2501ShirowsGhost]

@PX2k2 HUH? ONE IT'S BATEAU AND TWO IF YOU WATCH THE SECOND GIG SERIES SHE'S THE LITTLE GIRL THAT GETS THE FULL CYBERNETIC BODY.

[TatPeck3]

@PX2k2 That was from the episode where Batou goes to arrest that boxer guy. It's a fake photo that's part of his cover. :)

[motokokusanagifan65]

what episode for 1:25??

[rutabagasteu]

I like this one. Thank you.

[xelister]

Awesome vid =) Whare is the lyrics..? anyone?

[black01scarlet]

[EhhTii]

Hey have you see...Motoko in 3:30.

From waht Episode is that?

[Hanfkrokette]

@EhhTii 11 i guess ..something around 11 !

[AD157RAC710N]

@EhhTii Its episode 12 from season 1.

[mintyoreo]

2:24 I've seen that before but i wasnt paying attention when it happened i guess, can someone explain that to me? bc as far as i know, batou and motoko havent got a kid

[EhhTii]

Thats a Mystery......a Mystery.......Or can be this Photo is just faked for this Mission in the Episode who Bahto worket..

[okapie08]

It was really good!! respect

5 stars and more !

thx :-*

[Metzgermeist]

Had to write two comments, long post, lol.

[Metzgermeist]

@globbo100: I used to think that, and it was because i was a close minded prick who hated anime because it was "gay"

I still think 98% anime is complete garbage, but there are a few gems out there that draw you in.. I.E. Ghost.

[globbo100]

Thank you for your comments, Metzgermeist. Ghost in The Shell could have been so much better and it's ashame that it never reached the pinnacle of story-telling. Instead it resorts to flashy and glittery imagery whenever it could as a way of drawing viewers into it.

[Metzgermeist]

Eh globbo, i'm not so sure... Ghost in the Shell has a pretty sweet storyline with an awful lot of twists and turns

. I do however get rather annoyed at the audience of the series, as most seem to just watch it for the reason of "LOL MOTOKO IS SO HAWT" and they completely ignore the story, i can't find attraction to drawn characters on a screen, so i find them a bit stupid..

It doesn't really have that much flashy and glittery imagery in my honest opinion, out of all...

[Metzgermeist]

the episodes most of them go on for 20 minutes or so of talking, going from place to place, and unfolding the plot, and only in the last 10 minutes or so there is action, sometimes alot, sometimes none.

Personally, i find the series rather in-depth, complicated, and most importantly it makes you think.

[globbo100]

I was just about to say the same thing about it being a lot of talk and very little action. I think writers and cartoonist--on both sides of the Pacific -- make the same mistake,and that is, they forget the entertainment aspect of it.The most important aspect of them all,as far as I'm concerned.I can understand budgetary constraints and that drawing action sequences can be expensive,but still.

[Metzgermeist]

The talk does get annoying sometimes, but i find that the more i watch the series the more i comprehend the plot, and the more it "flows" so to speak, I'd enjoy more action but to me the quality of the action when it happens is better than quantity.

[globbo100]

Oh well, that's all I have to say on the subject. I'm not going to get into a debate about the merits or demerits of Japanese anime.If one likes it, then they'll continue to watch, if not then they'll watch something else. Thanks for the chat.

[freezerbabies]

@globbo100

I know what you mean about the story telling. I've only the seen the first season; I kept wishing they'd go back to the Laughing Man storyline. Every episode that had something to do with it was so engaging to me. The one off episodes were ok, but there were too many of them and they just didn't compare in my opinion.

You should look into Ergo Proxy. It starts a little slow, but it definitely worth watching all the way through.

[hiimjoe720]

what was the name of the show in the fist few seconds

[InB4Desu]

Outlaw Star

[rioshu]

@hiimjoe720 Outlaw Star, I think.

[motokokusanagi65]

motoko is my heart and soul...nothing obsessive though she is an anime character she still has the beauty and emotions inside me burning up!!

[Nades129]

I love her too!!

[Diana734]

Did she really die from the shot?

[lethalninja492]

no it was just a puppet she controlled

[Metzgermeist]

It was a puppet, notice she doesn't have her typical watch on her wrist when they show the closeup of her outstretched arm?

[DuskFalling]

Yeah, that's how I knew that she wasn't dead the first time I saw it, but I never quite caught who gave it to her. Did they ever say?

[Metzgermeist]

She got the watch the mark the date of her last prosthetic body fitting she had, i believe.. Batou was talking about it in one of the very last episodes of the 1st gig i'm pretty sure.

[DuskFalling]

Ah, you're right. I think I remember him saying something like that, now that you mention it. Thanks =)

[Metzgermeist]

No problem, I'm glad I remember things like that =P

[TatPeck3]

Good catch!

[Metzgermeist]

Thanks, lol.

I watched that part over and over again because it just went from her seemingly dead, to her being back and Batou calling her a bitch, so i had to pick up on it.

Batou called her a bitch because she tricked him as well and made him go through all that BS of thinking she was dead, lol.

[motokokusanagi65]

was there an episode for the fight.....or did that happen before the shot?

[Metzgermeist]

What fight are you talking about?

[motokokusanagi65]

well...not a real fight..more so of an argument.. Batou called her a bitch but I'm so damn confused...is she dead or not???

[Metzgermeist]

@motokokusanagi65: Togusa asked what happened to the Major, and Batou replied something to the fact of "oh shes a bitch", what he meant by that is she was a bitch for tricking him into thinking she was dead. (Because she used her remote body to trick them into thinking it was the real her that got blasted so she could lay low) sorry if that sounds confusing.

[motokokusanagi65]

THANKA YOUZ! :3 i really apreciate that!!

[Metzgermeist]

No problem.

[SnoochyBoochInc]

Very Well Done =)

Shibbytastic.

[MizukiXian]

Aww, nice video of Motoko! ;D

[animelover4ever923]

o.o i love motoko o.o and its a good song 4 her .-.

[vashxgaara]

I want name the First song

[woodstock179]

Very nice vid! ^_^

FIVE STARS!!!

[zokamaru]

was bato her husband? that woman in that wallet look a lot like her

[woodstock179]

Bato was under cover and so that actually is her in his wallet playing his wife for the picture.

[ervinnjay]

did she died at the end of this video?

[cookiedarkfang]

No, cause shes cybernetic inplants shut down before the gun reached her/they transported to another place/they simply shut doen i think, i cant remember this series that much. But i do remember Batou reaction wen this happened god he was unhappy.

BUT i diffently know she doesnt die...

woosh she hasn't died so far thank god..

touch wood touch wood

[doomoftheend]

@ cookiedarkfang:

long long ago i watched the series...

i can be wrong but i think she knew that she will be attacked and the body which was shoten was a artifical body which she controled from far away... well and biological elements like blood where in it :-P

[Czaendermajer]

the reason for shooting the head is to destroy the mind, if not they would had stopped her before facing that Crab Monster, besides that... like batou,.. if MY friend died, (especialy some one as Awesome as motoko) i wouldnt be unhappy, i would cry like a Wee Wee Baby, Cuz motoko is awesome ( and im reffering to the motoko from the original movie with black hair & more cooler character) ♫^__^♫▐

[HollowIchigo107]

Great vid! Favorite ;)

[holsee0svu]

great video song is am,azing and motoko is just soo cool.

[Sylphmoon]

I really can't decide which one is better, the first or the second video. So I'll say I like them both which wouldn't be far from the truth at all. ^^ And Motoko kicks ass in both of them which is just plain awesome.

I love all you AMVs, keep up the good work!

[ReverseDamage]

greatvideo!loved the song:)

[7ych0]

The robot tanks look very silly compared to the manga.

[MaxSmolax]

Do you mean Tachikomas look silly? If you do, you're my sworn enemy. :D

[garuda155]

kick ass vid

[Sangoforever]

Nice work I like it alot.

[DaemonKusanagi]

Nice but I prefer the original.

[greenneutron]

great vid :-D definitely put together a lot of the fun parts to watch. :-)

[falkundude]

good job. i like the intro

[BadGuy2k3]

this was awesome, love the anime, love this amv!!!!!!

[TheSovereign500]

so all the stuff i heard about this amv were true, 5/5, very well made.

[Darkbullet23]

Wow, this is amazing. 5 stars.

[ACE9010]

This AMV is awesome I must've seen it at least 40 or 50 times by now XD

[KyuubiGoku]

I heard a lot of good things about this AMV so I finally checked it out lol. Very good in my opinion. U did a lot of things right, especially sync.

[ShinigamiWolf1]

Wow, this is great!! Love the song, too.

[kevmonDvids]

cool

[ACE9010]

I finally finished GITS now I can watch your amvs, this was really good I liked the clips you chose excellent lyric sync and great song choice

[samuraizylle]

Yay! Now I can use this in your tourney ^.^

[ACE9010]

Yeah eventually I'll watch some more of your GITS vids I just wanted to see your most recent to see what they look like, really nice work

[samuraizylle]

lol trust me, the other ones suck

[ACE9010]

you're always too hard on yourself lol I'll watch them regardless

[samuraizylle]

lol no seriously -- I made them a year ago in two days a piece. I need to remake them.

[ACE9010]

Wow that long ago? There's still no harm in me watching them

[Sekhmet9Isis]

great work! nice use of clips and sweet song choice! *~*

[anka4anime]

really cool.

[madbiker53]

cool as fook

[ShadwNinjaX]

Awesome tribute for one of the baddest ladies in all of anime! Congrats on winning the contest! 5 stars! ^_^

[PoeticRhapsody]

Hardcore. I love the raw feel...I cannot decide if I like the first one or the second one the best. ^__^

[gellertkis]

by the way... what is the song in the samuraizylle intro?

[samuraizylle]

It's 'Do Not' by John Reuben.

[gellertkis]

awesome ! I love it,

im listen again and again.... sure , im a Motoko fun.

[kin2naruto]

Great intro!!! (Just wish I'd thought of it first - I love that song)

I'm going to go against the flow here and say I liked the first version better. This one was very action-packed, but the original gave me chills during the "slower" parts.

[samuraizylle]

Yeah, the first version had a certain something to it...but I wanted to make the clips more relevant to the lyrics, so I changed a lot of them to reflect that. In the first version I slapped random clips around in places I needed to fill, so lyrically the sync wasn't so good.

[kin2naruto]

meh - sometimes lyric snyc is overrated

[BloodAndAshes666]

Wow, really good! <3

[pocky047]

yay! awsome nearly as good as the original..so can a nyone tell me which eps are the chroma episodes?

[TenchiRyokoforever]

Wow I thought your original one was great but with the tweaks you did this one is a lot better!

[xXinuyashasitXx]

i must say very cool. I haven't seen that many ghost in the Shell amvs that i have enjoyed. So congrats on that i really enjoyed this one.(^.^)

where did you get the clips. if you don't mind me asking?

[samuraizylle]

I rip the clips off my DVDs. ^^

[SpicAlmighty]

Very good work here. The pace of the video doesn't feel like it slows down at all. And as usual, the flow is great, the visuals fit and look perfect, and you've made yourself an even more impressive video. The ending fits very well but made me jump a little, I completely forgot about that in the original. What's worse is that it got me again on my second time watching this XD. Awesome job! :)

Oh yeah, and nice intro, lol. :P

[samuraizylle]

lol thanks...and it's good that it made you jump; that was the whole point. ^^ I wanted the end to stun people and take them by surprise.

And the intro was just an idea I thought was funny...it's an amusing song. XD

[Dekanah]

that was cooooool!

[freakytiki34]

amazing, and I'm glad you kept that ending froom the first one. Absolutely amazing.

[RockLee13579]

very cool!

[smalls2011]

awesomeness
