“Waiter, there’s levity in my dark sci-fi dystopia”
One of the things I like about GITS, and SAC and the manga in particular, is how comfortable Kusanagi is “in her own skin”.
She’s a full conversion cyborg, yet she’s fully confident that her idea of “me” is real in all the ways that matter. It makes GITS a much more hopeful vision of the future, which brings up issues that technology might bring forth, yet it’s a story about characters tackling, and resolving, those issues.
And with concepts like the stand alone complex, how traditional ways of thinking might need to evolve in response to new societal phenomenon.
Just so we’re clear, I completely agree with everything you wrote here. At the same time, I’ve seen people seriously holding the opinion you started with and those are the ones I was talking about. These are just my random musings though, they weren’t meant as a serious discussion about fandom or how this project will be received. All I know is I’ll be there for more GitS.
Saame.
The doomers can go somewhere else if GITS is too hopeful for them. It was never devoid of that, IMO.
It’s more of a “humanity will achieve amazing things” type of franchise and how with that, new problems requiring new solutions will arise.
