Panon Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 Well that explains a lot. Solid State Society is a movie/OVA version of 2nd Gig. Bummer. ...Uh, what? Did you not read any of the rest of the thread or something? Individual Eleven is the movie/OVA version of 2nd Gig. Solid State Society is all new, following the SAC continuity and set years after 2nd Gig. Quote

Is "Individual Eleven" what they're calling the 2nd Gig OVA then? Quote
UN Spacy Posted August 5, 2006 Author Posted August 5, 2006 Looks like we're a month away from the premiere. Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society Air Date in Japan: September 1, 2006 DVD Release in Japan: November 24, 2006 Format: 1 x 105' Based on the Manga by: Shirow Masamune Director: Kenji Kamiyama Screenplay: Kenji Kamiyama, Shotaro Suga, Yoshiki Sakurai Character Design: Takayuki Goto, Tetsuya Nishio Music: Yoko Kanno Animation Production: Production I.G Produced By: Ghost in the Shell Production Committee Quote
JB0 Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 *sees thread for first time* So they're finally doing a GitS movie that doesn't suck? It's about time. Quote
bsu legato Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 Production IG has some more detail on the story on their site: StoryA.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. So, this really sounds like a continuation of the overall Stand Alone Complex story. Exxxxxcellent. Quote
Mr March Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 Well this is good news. A movie means I won't have to catch up on all that much compared to a third season Quote

ShadowerV2 Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 I'm watching GITS 2nd gig at the moment and I swear Motoko got a boob job after series 1! They're twice as big now. 384315[/snapback] Hmmm.... kinda hard to tell. The major has no bounce after all.... Quote

chowyunskinny Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 From what I've read, the R/C Tachikoma was for a press conference and there are no plans to release it as a product Quote

GITS trailer. click at the above's linky. but its a bit slow....dunnow why...prolly the server is from Malaysia? looks pretty good, hope this will be as interesting as the previous 2 series Edited August 7, 2006 by aaajin Quote
sketchley Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Is there anyone with links to a higher resolution trailer? I did some searching, and I found the following: More real/anime car comparisions: http://clappa.jp/special/003/special_003_04.html some line-art: http://clappa.jp/special/003/special_003_03.html (the axe looks lethal) And, on the Japanese wikipedia for GitS: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%94%BB%E6%...d_State_Society It's not listing this in the movie section. In fact, it's listing it there as Gits: SAC 3rd gig! It also has the following: 2006å¹´11月24æ—¥ã«DVD発売。 (2006/11/24 DVD sale start) 2006å¹´9月1æ—¥ã«ã‚¹ã‚«ãƒ‘ー!パーフェクトãƒãƒ§ã‚¤ã‚¹160PPVã§æ”¾é€é–‹å§‹ã€‚ (2006/09/01 PPV on Skuba! Perfect Choice 160, starts.)

sketchley Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 (edited) http://ir.eol.co.jp/EIR/3791?task=download...=330052&a=b.pdf This here lists it as a "Original Long-animation Pay-per view videogram." It's going to be in Highvision*, with Dolby Digital 5.1., and is planned to be about 100 minutes. * Highvision, or HV, is what I believe the Japanese are calling high definition digital TV.

aaajin Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 sorry but I cant understand anything from these pile of junk you threw at us....well, not junk but theyre in horry freaking japanese.... the trailer is nice...just hoping if someone can get a better res of the pix. ANYONE? Quote
Mr March Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 Looks fantastic! The animation is even better than the series which was already very impressive. I too would love to see a higher resolution version of this trailer. It was a little hard to make out some of the action. Quote
UN Spacy Posted September 19, 2006 Author Posted September 19, 2006 Alright folks. Time to revive this thread. Looks like it's already been relased in Japan. The OP looks very promising. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkukieT7B_8 Quote
Mr March Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 Very nice. I'm very excited about this new production. Quote
bsu legato Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 I've had the raw video for about two weeks now, but I've been holding off watching it in the hopes that somebody would be brave enough to fansub it. Quote
azrael Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 I have the raw for this....It feels like a very long episode. BTW, it's licensed already. The DVD is due out next summer. It will probably hit the convention screening rooms as well. So those of you planning at being at a convention next year will see it on the big screen. Quote
sketchley Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 I believe it falls into the category of 'made for (pay-per-view) TV movie'. I can't comment on it beyond the translations, and the links provided previously in this thread. Quote
UN Spacy Posted October 13, 2006 Author Posted October 13, 2006 Alright folks. There IS a fansub available if ya know how to find it. Quote
bsu legato Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 OK, I'm stumped. All my searches turn up are the umpteen raw files that are circulating. Can we get a hint of some sort? Quote
UN Spacy Posted October 13, 2006 Author Posted October 13, 2006 OK, I'm stumped. All my searches turn up are the umpteen raw files that are circulating. Can we get a hint of some sort? You need some of THIS along with the RAW file. Quote
aaajin Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 THANKS so much! been looking for the sub for quite a while now... Quote
