Anime Perfect Blue & ghost in the shell

i just purchased these, perfect blue has a great storyline but the leading characters seem a bit flat.

i havent watched ghost in the shell yet, its the japanese (englis subs) double box set, so hopefully it will be better than perfect blue

 

Hey ..
I just wanted to warn u about Ghost in a shell. Dont put ur hopes too high because I was really disappointed. The story is OK but I hated the ending

 

Hey, new faces! Nice to see you.

When you watch Ghost in the Shell, (again possibly) watch for how much the Matrix is like it. Market scene with watermelons being shot, existential questions, shot up cement pillars bla bla bla. There were some similarities. I thought it was cool.

The ending really wasn't all neatly wrapped up like we'd like endings to be sometimes, but more open. I liked it. It's where imagination comes into play (or frustration) Good movie though IMHO

scratch the H from that acronym

 

I did'nt see ghost in the shell yet, if it
isn't cool, but what is it about?????????

 

Its basically an anime about what makes us human. With the main character being a brain in a cybernetic body and the secondary character being a machine with the scan of a brain imprinted into it and basically asking what really is the difference between the two, its a good anime tho its fairly hard on the head in a similar way to Lain

 

Well alot of people say Ghost was one of the main inspirations for the matrix, I'd agree on some points, its storyline makes it feel like a prequal a view of how the super AI came to being etc etc. I liked it. I watched it with a friend who doesnt watch animes, He was so ****ing confused by the whole thing. I didnt fell that confused...

 

Hmmmzzz, i like Akira 2000, where he's suided op in his gundam , He fight's so cool, almost like the one in "Dark Warriors",he is mean, he is tof , dont ever mess with the devil, just run and hide and train..........to become stronger!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ghost in the Shell is extremely cool, how can you complain with U2 doing the closing song? Well, ok, maybe you could complain about some things, but I found the whole premise very intriguing. I'm going to watch it again as soon as I can convince YokoburiKinura to let me borrow the DVD.

So, MO, that's not your Honest opinion?

 

owh hmmzz, i want new, brand new manga movies, my first manga movie was great, i saw a teenager in the desert, just minding his own business, justy walkin in the desert looking for something or someone, well, when some strange beings attack him, he said: "just leave me alone" wasn't that weared??
and when the beings attacked him , he just like said "battle boost"then some kind of a armor just came out of his skin , cool huh?
well i tink it was the old "akira"

 

hmzz, yezz i know Geyver too, thats a good movie or serie too , well the first manga movie was so darn good (for me) it changed my live , i think


yo, want to know why he said : "just leave me alone"??, well he was in a bad mood, his father was killed by a DarkWarrior of the "Dark Side" well he was so sad, and he just wanted to be alone, and those beings where they come in and are slaghterd, he just wanted to be alone, why disturbe him, now that's dangerous
