Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Season 1 - BLU-RAY [Standard] [7 Discs]

If you've every been a fan of the film or the manga, then give the show a watch! Follow Major Motoko Kusanagi and the rest of her Section 9 team as they investigate various cybercrimes, all while trying to solve a case that has eluded authorities for years - who is the Laughing Man? It takes everything you love about the established world from the film and expands upon it. The characters, including the super awesome Tachikoma's, will definitely grow on you. As soon as you're done, you'll want to start season 2!

If you enjoyed the original Ghost in the Shell film, this series is a must-have. While not set in the same continuity, the familiar characters are still as engaging as they solve crimes and uncover conspiracies that challenge the foundation of the heavily augmented-future world that they inhabit.

There is an audio issue where some of the voices get turned way down against the background. Checking against earlier versions confirms its a problem exclusive to this version. Amazing series though.

I've owned the Anime Legends DVDs for quite a few years and while the show holds up their quality didn't. I only watch the dub so can't give any other input but have been quite satisfied!

Great anime that has a good main storyline and touches on the outcome of having a high level of technology not just in our everyday lives but literally in our bodies.
