New Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex anime!

reading the words Solid State Society makes everything more interesting than the laughing man case (my favorite arc of SaC). I just hope its another 26 episodes..

Jam it back in, in the dark.

thats what bothered me when the first season came out. cause at the end of movie she said she was no longer the major or the little girl (barely remmeber) . then from there came Innocence. only i also wanna know what happened to Boma, Saitou and the others. maybe they might die in Solid State Society . ONLY leaving Togusa,Ishikawa , Batou and Motoko. who knows u.u. someone might come and correct me but its only just a theory. i dont read the manga.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

There was a comparsion a while back. The characters are the same but the environment, society, style, etc. they live in are different.
The movie is more like a dark urban slums setting. The series on the other hand is opposite of that.

Looking at the attachment and taking wild guesses with the numbers...
I think it's 2 years after some event..... 26 episodes.... and that about it.

i always thought like this :

Series 1 and 2 : Section 9 is together to take on the laughing man case and then investigate the Particulist 11 when it was (Don't read unless you are in the last episodes of the second season)

Spoiler:

Gouda's doing the whole time. i loved when his head got popped off..reminded me of the beginning of the first movie...

Movies : Togusa does things on his own, Batou hangs out more with the Major til she became a new different person after combining with the puppetmaster. and in Innocence, Its Togusa and Batou and we only got to see motoko control this doll. and you know what? I still dont understand. i gotta see it again cause i only saw it once.

i dunno where I'm going with this. sure its best not to compare manga and anime like rockgamer said, but to me i still think this 3rd installment to Stand Alone Complex series will connect with the movie. thats just me. sorry.

edit : sorry, south.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society will run for 100 minutes and be released this summer, according to Production IG's disclosure on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

well a 100 minutes isn't so bad. but now since it IS a movie. now im interested to what the story will be and how it'll end.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

So we get the Puppet Master in SSS, huh? i wonder if this one will be a female kind that'll walk around all naked like the movie . Not to mention get hit by a car. Since its a movie,this can/might be the last of SaC.

How ya doing, buddy?

damn. i wanted Kenji Kawai to compose.. or both u.u

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

After 1 month, we are finally given more news concerning Solid State Society.

Introduction
With more than 1.5 million copies sold in Japan and 100.000 copies per volume sold in the USA, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex has consolidated his place among the classics in the world of science fiction. Now, after two years from the TV series that started all, a completely new and all-original chapter is about to emerge: Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society. Directed by Kenji Kamiyama and with the participation of the same staff from the popular series, this full-length 105 minute feature has required an unprecedented budget of 360 million yen (or 3.20 million dollars), in order to provide theatrical quality. The movie will premiere in Japan on the SKYPerfecTV! satellite television network on September 1st, and successively released on DVD on November 24th. Release outside Japan is to be announced.

Story
A.D. 2034. It has been two years since Motoko Kusanagi left Section 9. Togusa is now the new leader of the team, that has considerably increased its appointed personnel. The expanded new Section 9 confronts a rash of complicated incidents, and investigations reveal that an ultra-wizard hacker named the Puppeteer is behind the entire series of events.

In the midst of all, Batou, who was stalking the case on a separate track, encounters Motoko. She goes away after saying, "Stay away from the Solid State Society." Batou is left with a doubt in his mind. Could Motoko be the the Puppeteer?

The series of intriguing incidents that Section 9 faces gradually link together almost artistically. Who is the Puppeteer? What will happen to Batou's relationship with Motoko? What is the full truth behind this carefully planned perfect crime? And what will the outcome be? Mysteries surround the Solid State Society...

NOTE: The word "Puppeteer" is used in this text as a temporary translation for the original Japanese term "Kugutsu Mawashi," and it is not meant to be the official English adaptation.

Sounds like this is going to be one serious f'n story. So this should be after the second season. heh.. And i thought it was going to be something of the Puppetmaster but that was in the Year 2029

Most amazing jew boots

I still think the Laughing Man Case was the best season compared to the second season. The Particularist 11 case was still kickass though.

Looking at this just makes me believe that Yoko Kanno will work on the music for the third time.

Awesome Trailer. I believe that to be as goodd as LMC. If not as good then Better. The music for the third part of the trailer sounds a little Koh Otani-ish..but whatever.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
