This Week's Anime!


Ghost in the Shell

Synopsis
In the year 2029, the barriers of our world have been broken down by the net and by cybernetics, but this brings new vulnerability to humans in the form of brain-hacking. When a highly-wanted hacker known as 'The Puppetmaster' begins involving them in politics, Section 9, a group of cybernetically enhanced cops, are called in to investigate and stop the Puppetmaster. The pursuit will call into question what makes a human and what is the Puppetmaster in a world where the distinction between human and machine is increasingly blurry.

FLCL

Synopsis
Naota is a normal Japanese 6th grade boy (although a little cynical), but when his older brother leaves for America to play baseball, his brother leaves his homeless 17-year-old girlfriend Mamimi behind. Mamimi is sending mixed signals and advances to Naota, and he doesn't know what to do about her. But to make matters worse, Naota's world is totally turned upside down when he is run over by a woman on a Vespa. During their first encounter, she hits him over the head with her bass guitar, which then causes a horn to grow out of his forehead. She calls herself "Haruko" and her presence changes Naota's life to even further insanity.

[Lewellyn]

My sister is watching The Matrix tomorrow in Sci-Fi lit and I told her to watch GitS. Now both of my sisters said no

[TheProfosist]

You delivered~!

That sword looks way to wide to be your standard katana....

[TetraSky]

3 of them this week?
 

Too bad I can't watch any of them legally. They aren't on netflix, Hulu is US only and I'm too lazy to actually try to find a working download link. (considering how old they are)

[Fred Castellum]

That sword looks way to wide to be your standard katana....

Canonically she doesn't use a katana.

That sword looks way to wide to be your standard katana....

assuming forced perspective the tip seems the correct size but the base should probably be thinner

dude that is a bleeping awesome GITS pic!

agreed

[TheProfosist]

Canonically she doesn't use a katana.

So AK74u is standard then?

assuming forced perspective the tip seems the correct size but the base should probably be thinner

agreed

Unless it's not supposed to be a katana but still doesn't look right.

Have a bigger pic cause #PosterMakingTime

It's canonically suppose to be something resembling a scimitar. 

 

A AK74u would be a really nice alternative however.

[dragoon20005]

Ghost in the Shell is nice but i got confused with all the arcs

[Legion]

Ghost in the SHELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CatCloud]

That sword looks way to wide to be your standard katana....

It's not, it's a special designed scimitar.

[Toddwjp]

ya probably could I didn't since I tossed in two short ova series that are unrelated to it.

[CatCloud]

@Charger @TheProfosist meh.. Fanart is fanart.

[Fred Castellum]

@Charger @TheProfosist meh.. Fanart is fanart.

Indeed.

[TheProfosist]

The tone's between the two movies are quite different but good.

@Charger @TheProfosist meh.. Fanart is fanart.

im just saying, im just saying

[TheProfosist]

Indeed.

The face feel too lightly drawn with the heavy perceived drawing weight of the lower half.

Looks fine to me, she's just got tons of heavy gear. They are Tengu so it's not really a problem.

just seems blocky and sketchy except the face. I dont really have a problem with that it seems like it is trying to get a more masculine look to the body and more feminine look to the face

Cant tengu fly? No wings?

Kinda what I was thinking.
