Review of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex

Lawrence Person writes "Given how the series itself touches on so many topics near and dear to the hearts of Slashdotters everywhere, I thought my review of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (first season) at Locus Online would be of interest. It is longer and more in-depth than the average review, and touches on GitS:SAC's relationship to obvious cyberpunk and postcyberpunk source material, the elements that make it unique among anime science fiction, the role of P2P networks in popularizing anime, and how GitS:SAC compares to the other great science fiction TV show currently on the air right now, Battlestar Galactica."

    Much as I like GITS (because it IS excellent) series one has been out forever and series two (the 2nd gig) has been floating around the P2P nets for a while. Why don't you review 'back to the future' while you're at it?

    Oooh, I feel that monday morning snark coming on. Need more coffee.
