I'm excited now that everyone's back together! I hope they do a Boma central episode, that's something I always wanted from a S.A.C. continuation.

Although I still have stuff to complain about, everyone finally began acting like themselves and funny scenes with the Tachikomas are my kind of fanservice.

Finally a good fucking episode

What in the fuck is Boma wearing? Jesus christ, that dude got the short end of the stick in terms of character design for the new series. lol

Fun episode. Hard to get fully swerved by that death given the title of the episode with its telegraphing, but I actually was swerved a bit given how realistic they made it seem. Got a kick out of the others giving Togusa props for his manipulation.

This series is a gift from guilded angel wings, so delightful. All the old jokes land and the characters I've known and loved are back together. People don't know how hard it is, there are 1000 Naruto episodes, hundreds of Bleach episodes, but getting more Ghost in the Shell is like begging for nickels. The budget has to be high or it has to be computer animated and then everyone hates it.

This series is a warm luxurious dip back in a fictional world I dearly love. Everyone knows SAC is the best GITS ever was, and major is so abusive to me, a normie. Thank you major, may I have another.

They got me with that title. At first I thought it was a spoiler, then that it was deliberate to make us think Togusa was going to die, and finally I really believed he was dead when they showed him getting shot multiple times. Until he revealed that he hacked the two men's cyberbrains... Well played.

Togusa really knows how to kick a gun away, now. He had to learn about that the hard way, if anyone remembers. XD
But seriously. I thought he died. Well, played Togusa.

I only saw 7 total, where's the other 2 Tachikomas? And was that a Famicom game cartridge? I feel so old! LOL

Damn, Togusa has become a smooth operator! Congratulations Togusa! XD
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,
Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy.

Yay! The team is officially back! Everyone congratulating Togusa was sweet, especially Batou's laugh.

Togusa getting shot like that surprised, I knew he wasn’t going to die but it was realistic enough to throw not just those guys for a loop but the viewers too I bet, did me anyway. I hope we learn more on his divorce and It’d be cool to see his little girl as a teenager at somepoint.

Tachikoma’s again bringing the laughs. As a fellow puzzle game fan I totally understand their excitement haha

Also have Borma or Pazu said a single word yet?
