The original GHOST IN THE SHELL was hailed by critics and audiences alike as one of the finest Animé films ever produced, and influenced Hollywood films from THE MATRIX to A.I. GHOST IN THE SHELL: STAND ALONE COMPLEX features the same cyberpunk atmosphere, characters, and settings as the original film, but takes place in an alternate timeline where Major Motoko Kusanagi and Togusa are still members of Section 9--a police agency that hunts down cyber-criminals and terrorists. Based on the manga by Masumune Shirow and directed by Kenji Kamiyama (who directed and assisted with the animation on BLOOD: THE LAST VAMPIRE and JIN-ROH: THE WOLF BRIGADE), STAND ALONE COMPLEX focuses on creating complex mysteries, a dark futuristic setting, and kinetic action sequences. Volume 4 contains four episodes of the acclaimed action series, and continues the story of Motoko and her quest to bring down criminals both real and virtual. [More]
