it is very spiritual within an intellectual framework within an art framework. Need to keep your eye on the red queen or you will loose your 20 bucks.
I just realized this scene is also in GitS SAC 2nd Gig in the First Episode, the setup is different but the end result of her shooting a guy through a tower window then falling into invisibility is the same.

Fuck this anime. IT's boring as hell. I slept halfway through when I watched it the first time.
ALL of the character eyes look like they are staring blankly wide eyed and have no emotions what-so-ever.
The stroryteller didn't put any effort in helping the audience to try to understand the story without watching it more than 5 times, and the dull and yawn inducing filler scenes makes a great prescription for insomnia.
The Stand Alone Complex franchise is a billion times better than this POS.
Saw this part on Conan last night. The improvisation was really funny for what Conan and Andy did, but the film is quite serious. It's for adults for a reason.
I dont know why masumune shirow stopped doing these cyberpunk stuff (appleseed and ghost in the shell), but they sure were nice back in the 90's
personally I think the comic book versions were better than the animations, I still remember how appleseed 1 caught my attention in the comicbook shop when I was looking for something else. Ever since that first issue, I was hooked, same for ghost in the shell.
once you've watched this one, you've got the second movie and then stand alone complex 1 & 2 then the movie derivative of the s.a.c. to watch too. ALL of which are bloody brilliant!
This movie really needs to be redubbed. I love the cast of GitS, but this dub does not hold up very well after 13 years. Not to mention it's jarring now to not hear Mary Elizabeth McGlynn as Motoko.
I do to. Brilliant stuff. But in an interview with the music designer for the movie he said he wasnt happy with it. Not sure why though. I think its great, perfectly fits the anime.
@Lostfaith1980 yep, same i own all of it, 2 series and the 3 movies. it was amazing, my favorite kind of anime is the kind that you can sink your brain into, and not only just look at the pretty pictures, which this also has.
@Lostfaith1980 omg i know i just finished watching SAC and i believe i may have to watch them all over again...i think i may have missed a few parts XD its soooo good! my favs are togusa and batou.

For all of those just joining the anime crowd this last decade or show, this is what ALL manga dubs tend to sound like.
If you want REALLY bad, try out Dangaioh sometime, yeesh.

Its fantastic. But its very deep. If your not prepared to have to actually use your brain and think then you wont enjoy it.
Its not an anime designed for kids or idiots. Its very ... not intellectual but a word similar that I cant think of. Wheres my thesaurus ^_^
I have the first movie and both Stand Alone Complex series. All of which are fantastic. I've watched each atleast 7 times over the years.
