The tank scene is easily one of the best action sequences in all of anime, despite the fact that it is about the protagonist just barely avoiding some gunfire and then gibbing herself. It's packed full of atmosphere and awesome animation

Or be more like the comic and just be titties. Just titties.
This would have been the correct approach

Since it is anime the nudity is probably because of perverts, but I liked that the Major would get nude every now and then because she just gave absolutely no fucks because why the hell would she, she was just a brain in a robot

Ghost in the shell isn't really that good

It was good - for an anime -, but not really that good imo

It had a handful of really cool scenes though

Who gives a poo poo what her name is

She barely has a personality in the anime anyway. She's basically a blank slate with a mysterious past or whateve

someone post that video of japanese people reacting with joy to the news that Scarlett would be playing the Major. I feel like it's a nice contrast to all the discussion that is being had by exclusively white dudes on the internet about whitewashing

Here's a post I made ages ago in this thread. It's almost like we're rehashing the same arguments over and over with idiots who don't know how to read.

Hm, well there are no big asian actresses that people want to pay to see so unfortunately cant have this

People didn't pay to see Scarlett either, so...? Also how do you know people won't pay to see them? Hm

Mostly just basing this on the fact that hollywood is a machine of greed above all and they don't see much profit in focusing ong asian actors yet because their cold hard calculated demographics research says it aint profitable yet
It's a shame but that's why we see most women above a certain age fizzle out as well
