Anime characters have big eyes because anime is descendent of Osamu Tezuka, who was a huge Disney fan, and classic Disney cartoons leaned heavily on large expressive eyes

If you seriously think that anime characters look like they do because they're trying to present a "homogenized, aracial image" that any (light skinned) person can relate to, rather than just being a simplified depiction of a Japanese person that is explicitly coded as Japanese due to their name, spoken language, and stated country of residence, then you are literally retarded irl and living evidence that Hitler, noted Disney otaku, was right to exterminate the lesser sbled

the problem is that there just aren't a lot of live action anime adaptations to form a sample size from, since most anime adaptations get stuck in development hell almost immediately since every motherfucker tries to "fix" it for release.

Kusanagi is a Japanese national with a Japanese name working for the Japanese government with an explicitly Japanese-coded cyberbody in most versions of the story, she's pretty obviously Japanese.

Silly me, I thought it was about making a good Ghost in the Shell movie

How stupid do you have to be to think Hollywood producers care about movies being good

Are the Ghost in the Shell shows on Netflix good ? I might watch them then it seems interesting.

iirc the only GitS shows on netflix are the Arise prequels, which are probably the shallowest and least interesting entries in the series.

I mean, the most faithful interpretation would probably have been straight-up paint on latex

ScarJo probably wouldn't have given a gently caress about it, either

IIRC it's explicitly said in SAC that the Major has changed bodies multiple times over the course of her life.

Out of context; In SAC, The Major was explicitly turned into a cyborg as a young child, and she's changed bodies because she was literally changing into bodies appropriate to her biological age.
