A quick question about Ghost in The Shell

[JTurner954]

I liked the animation in Ghost In The Shell so I was wondering if the same animation team worked on any other animation titles. Any help would be appreicated.

i think Dastafarin covered everything ^_^

Dastafarin, the very first line mentions a manga. Is it based on the movie alone or is there more than what's in the movie?? Is it available in English?

[7thKeeper]

Heh..actually the movie is based on the manga and not the other way around. Yes it's available in english and the story of the manga is much larger than that of the anime. If asked to compare, I like the manga better myself, partly thanks to Masamunes sense of humour.

He is right. The movie was based of the manga Ghost in the Shell. There is a english version but that has parts cut out. If you can read Japanese or know someone who could translate for you, I suggest purchasing the original one.

The only parts that were cut out of the translated manga were the two hentai pages..., neither of which added to the story (unless you're a perv.., :heh: ).., so if you can get a hold of the english Dark Horse release, get that instead...,

But...but...It's just not the same without those pages.
