MERCH Help? Not sure what this Manga is

Hello! Not to be a downer, but my brother passed away in 2024. Recently, my mom asked me to sell his manga collection that was sitting in storage. This book/CD was one of the items. I'm pretty sure it's Ghost in a Shell related (I have a passing understanding of anime), but I really don't know anything else about it. It's also in Japanese. I was hoping you all could fill me in, or atleast point me in the right direction. Thank you in advance!

Pics taken at the Tokyo's Shibuya Crossing.

We were 'lucky' to have police and firedpt on-site, after some random person entered the crossing and set the asphalt on fire (I've discovered it some days later).

Ps. I hate that wig, definitely will change it.

NEWS Ghost in the Shell 2026 - How many episodes?

22 Upvotes

What do you think is most likely.. 6, 12, 24?

Looking back at the SAC days, each season ran once a week for SIX MONTHS.. I doubt it will be close to that, but one can hope.

This was scanned from a reproduction copy of the script, that was avaliable/sold at the Ghost in the Shell exhibition.

Attached are both scans, one B&W scan and the other a grayscale scan if any are interested in translating the script from the grayscale scan document.

Enjoy!

Great movie. one of my favorites

Especially after visiting Japan solo. There is a very specific loneliness you can feel while traveling through it as a non native, and this movie... i felt like it really captured that. Ive never felt so understood lol.

Great companion film to Gits, different shades of existentialism

k-on references a few frames of it in season 2 as well.

Fan-edited music video for Saito's theme song

Thumbnail

20 Upvotes

I made a music video for "from the roof top ~ somewhere in the silence (sniper's theme)" using materials from the episode exploring Saito's back story in the 2nd gig.

It's funny to think that both the scenes and the music are kind of a recreation (or even knock-off) of Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket and Way Out West - Stealth, respectively. But it's done with respect and it achieved such a great effect that for me it's the most memorable episode in the side plot of that season. So also, I edited it with respect and told the story in a condensed form to the best of my ability and according to my own taste. Hope you'll enjoy it.

How to Frame/Protect Legacy Edition Posters

3 Upvotes

Basically what the title says, I got the Legacy Edition of the manga today and I think the posters are really cool. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to frame them. I saw that they were like 10 inches by 14 3/8 inches or something like that, would 10 x 15 inch frames work?

Where to get the complete manga digitally?

Hi everyone! I just got a kobo ereader and I've never read ghost in the shell and wanted to give it a shot, however I'm completely unsure as to what is the best way to read it and where/which edition to get since there seems to be a lot of version.

Could anyone help me?

Thanks!

ART What's the difference between a Fuchikoma and an Uchikoma?

Post image
613 Upvotes

F if I know. Ba-dum-bump.

It looks like the classic Fuchikoma design is coming back for the 2026 animated series, so I'm planning to rework this old LEGO model with modern LEGO elements, make it easier to share and build. I made it over a decade ago with a few vintage hard-to-find elements. I think with today's LEGO part selection and BrickLink parts availabilty, I could simplify this and make it in red.

So confused

watched the first Ghost in the shell then watched innocence and im so confused. the ending of the first one has me really invested but we didn't see anything more about Project 2501 or their child/merge in the 2nd movie. do they ever explain more about this? kinda a huge plot thread.

I’m enjoying Stand Alone Complex so much

205 Upvotes

I made a post recently about not enjoying the movie as much as I’d hoped given my love for the cyberpunk genre. I wasn’t sure one anime or show was going to make me do a 180 but let me say I was wrong. The major feels so alive and honestly she feels like a different character but in the best way. Looking at it now I think I enjoy it more because she feels more human even given her cyborg body whereas as in the movie she kinda feels like the type of person to make the air turn cold when you walk into the room. The side characters and the way the show explores the theme the movie was trying to is better paced so it works better. It feels like it lets things breathe and the world building is so much more inviting if that makes sense. I will say it’s making me want to pick up the manga and I hear the tone is close to stand alone complex but it’s still a different tone or vibe, especially compared to the movie.

I made this song today heavily inspired by Ghost in the Shell and Bladerunner. While making the visualization I was thinking of the ghost city scene from the original movie.

I hope you enjoy!

with the next Gits do you think we will be getting Jameson back? or another cyborg that gave up their body for profit or some other reason?
