  • one of the best scenes.

  • I just watched this scene for 3 times now, and I realized that the little girl really resembles Motoko!!! Isn't that girl really the old Motoko?! Motoko did get a prosthetic body when she were just a little girl!!! She said she'd broken her doll when she was recently in a prosthetic body and cried back then.

    Guess I need to keep on going to find out this mysterious quest.

    NO SPOILERS PLEASE! I want to see it for myself!

  • 僕はこれを見て命の本質を知る。 生きる本質 僕は 僕を好きな人がいないから、、「。

  • wow I think I will watch the series now.

  • Still makes me cry. Thanks for uploading!

  • The Song is

    I Do - Yoko Kanno (or Kanno Yoko, so many disagreements with that order)

  • Ilaria Graziano is also included in the song*

    my bad.

  • Please upload the rest of this story or I can't help thinking about the end of it!

  • I always thought that boy looked like Haley Joel Osment...

  • This part was done so well in english as well. It managed to carry the weight of the drama and the emotion that was intended for the original dubbing and thats a rarity to me. Kudos to the cast of both GITS series. This part was the best to me.

  • I'm not a sentimental person, but even this touched me! Though when I watched it it was in Eigo, aired by CN. So sad!

  • This episode was reallt depressing..... It reflected on how she was alone, and still somewhat is. I think that they did love eachother, as friends at first, but it evolved towards the end of the seconed season. I also like the English voices much better, just because motoko sounds too fragile in this one, not at all the tom-boy bad cop she really is ;)

  • i'm reffering to

    zeth006

  • i want this version of i do T_T does anybody has it? U_U

  • This version? As far as I hear it, it's exactly the same version as the one on the O.S.T., except the audio voices.

  • SAd, but very sweet indeed. ^^

  • now i know she was a girl cos watchin the GTSsac i wud think she was a boy

  • WOW, THIS WAS VERY COOL....Where's the continuation?

  • can anyone out there tell me the song that got alot of play during season one its like a symphony with the violins totally highlighted it gets played when section 9 is kinda putting pieces together to solve the case,with a little drum and bass in the background

  • ;_; *tear*

  • *puts hand on chemists shoulder* i feel ya <8;^) *tears*

  • It's such a tragic love story. It's even more tragic when they do meet again and are pretty much enemies.

    Thank you for posting this, it's always a wonderful story to watch :3

  • No, it was never a love story. The saddening part was the way the two could've become best friends. They were the only survivors of a major plane crash, and they happened to end up next to each other both while seated in the plane and while in the hospital. Both ended up acquiring cyborg bodies.

    Motoko then showed herself to be one of compassion...but whether she treasured those memories...who knows?  =-)

  • if it makes any sense i know that she did because it came to me that this might be the guy that motoko was stuck underground with, the revolution guy she said to him something like "can you fold cranes with your left hand only?" i didn't know what she meant but he did eat that apple with his left hand, i think she knew then what was up,but could do nothing to help out everyone on his side,being a part of section 9 and all.

  • Ummmm....yeah. The last part of my post was just a rhetorical question that i left for everyone else to just think and consider.

  • and i do not agree with you. sorry. (smile)

    i do think it was love, that kind of love only children feel for each other.(of course it's sth. to do with friendship, but there are more emotions in it...i wonder if you understand.

    And for me the saddening part is that they were connected to each other although in a world where they had noone else, but were tore apart and weren't able to find each other again.

  • Motoko is treasureing ALL the things that are importend to her, in her heart, and what through all the years has been there is the memory of THIS boy, whom she first liked....

  • not true oh~ the things she treasure most are all of her section9. check out the first season. i forgot which episode was it but its the ones that the gov't raid the section9 head quarter. i think this all began with bato asking Motoko about why she wears this old watch...she then explain to him that during each transformation of cyborg body, she looses her memories a bit. so in order for her to remember, she keeps her important stuff with her so she can remember after she wakes up.....

  • .....but she fails to remember any. now she only keep those things because she knew it was part of her along the way. if you look carefully, she wears that old watch in the very beginning of this clip, but "the girl" didn't. so i assume she had long forgotten anything about her first tranformation, and the boy too. and that's the reason why the old lady was there to tell her the story, not directly to the audiance.

  • dis is sweet and sad :'( but i stil luv it

  • such an adorable scene

    ^.^

  • in Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex SAC 2nd GiG, episode 11 Affection. From 16.04 time duration, what is the name of the song and the artist? I think the song was very good.

  • 2nd gig, episode 11

  • Same here. I first watched this episode just last night, and it was amazing.

  • this is a very emotional ep of ghost in the shell, i like it.

  • tear jerker.

    i love this scene

  • Insta-faved! Simply beautiful! Not many things can cause me shed tears, but this, Milo and Odis, and Futurama Fry's dog, and Leela's "Fry's Dead because of big bees episode." Can't think of any thing else off the top of my head.

  • You cryed during "fry's dead because of big bees episode" too!? XD

  • yeah, it got to me in futurama, and I just watched a movie called "What's eating Gilbert Grape." That did it to me too...

  • what episode is it when kuzo and makoto hug??

  • The final episode...how tragic...star crossed lovers who only get to meet each other again in life for a few moments before being seperated again...

  • i've made one with the song of ilaria graziano, know her in myspace, great delicius person her :)

    if someone wanna watch this, you have just find "Ghost in The Shell 2nd GIG Ilaria Graziano I Do" by kodypoldino :)

    motoko forever! (and long life to ilaria, yoko and kenjii) ;) and respekt for thevagraunt ;) you all welcome!

  • so isnt kuze the boy and makoto the girl kuze the guy in like episode 45 to like 51 she thought he died

  • omg where can i find the rest of this ?!?!?

  • Anybody know what the title of the music (no lyrics) that was playing when kusanagi was about to leave the shop for the final time after finishing the paper crane?

  • this song is great

  • This was the first anime ep that ever made me cry.

    I wept like a baby lol

  • whats the song called in the background

    please tell me now

  • Read the description of the video.

  • "i do" iliaria graziano,composed for Yoko Kanno

  • What episode is this? I love the song too!

  • Episode Eleven, Affection is the episode I believe.

  • Here's the secret to this episode, folks. The Girl and the Boy in the story are...

    Motoko and Kuze (Roh)! Don't forget the paper crane she found at the boat dock, and her comments just after she tried to dive into Kuze's system and nearly fried her barrier: "I KNOW HIM!"

  • i knew that the first time i saw the episode...

  • in fact they have nothing to do with the movies except the basics

  • And even more importantly, the movies have almost nothing the do with the series.

  • But most importantly, she wondered that because of the post-AI who evolved as a new self-aware entity, that she may be something of the likes of it. An act of self awareness of here self, another entity.

  • The movie has a part where she wonders about her past, wondering if she might just be a advanced AI with fake memories since she had never seen part of her human braincells or any other way to support her childhood memories.

  • 27twentyseven27, Wrong the movie doesn't tell that she doesn't know her origins, you need to see it again and better interpret it.

  • The animated series works under the assumption that the events in the first movie never have nor will transpire. If it weren't so, there'd be other oddities like how they ask Togusa about his affinity for revovlers in the movie as well.

  • I agree, but Togusa's affinty for revolvers is just a minor thing. This on the other hand is very big because it's Motoko's curiousity about her cyborg past that led and kept her on persuing "The Puppet Master" and ultimately merging with him. Still a great series but it just doesn't fit.

  • This is beautiful episode but there is something stupid in it that completely contradicts the movie. Motoko isn't suppose to know her origin it's the driving force of her curiousity in the film. Yet we have here an episode about her life??

  • The contradiction doesn't matter because:

    1. This is the SERIES...NOT...THE MOVIE! Different universes!

    2. The driving force of her curiosity is how much of a human being she is, being mostly robotic. I'm pretty sure she remembers where she went to school as a little girl and such about her past.

  • This clip was wonderful. I loved the episode too. I think it's one of my favorites. Thanks for uploading! =)

  • Awww I love this episode about Motoko and Kuze's childhood! T_T But what happenes at the end of the series when they meet up again made me very sad :(

  • This one enjoyed the clip very much. Thank you very much. I didn't notice the backround song at first when I saw it on TV. I now love this song with all my heart and several nonexisting ones too.

  • If you want to listen to the song, I had it play in the background on MySpace.

    http://blog.myspace.com/index.­cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&frien­dID=52471652&blogID=116907360&­MyToken=7f39c8e7-90c3-41f7-8e7­2-354915a14d40

    The lyrics are there as well.

  • I was looking forward to uploading this video, this music "i do". I love this song very much! Oh, dear my Yoko Kanno...! I respect her..

    This episode is key of the story...about motoko and kuze.... Bato will envy that..(≧∇≦)

  • I loved this episode in english and the beautiful song in the background.

  • I agree. It's one of my favorite episodes of GITS 2nd gig.
