Love awesome action? How about getting an Asian flex courtesy of the Ghost in the Shell franchise? Oh yes.
It’s all going down this summer with a solid adaption giving proper manga visuals. Tap in.
The year is 2029. In near-future Japan, networks and micromachine technology have advanced dramatically. Motoko Kusanagi, a full-body cyborg, leads Public Security Section 9—an offensive unit known as the “Shell Squad,” formed to stop threats before they escalate. While investigating high-level cybercrimes, the team encounters a phantom: an unidentified hacker known as the “Puppet Master.”
