HEAVILY CYBORG

I never took the time to check out the TV series, but as a property Ghost in the Shell has always read to me as a morose feedback loop. Even Masamune Shirow's original fingerbang manga dwelt heavily on identity destruction and black ops dick measuring. In contrast this trailer for prequel series Ghost in the Shell: Arise seems to be a poppy repackage of a nostalgia property in the vein of Dragon Ball Kai. All aboard for cybernetic augmentation as a way to facilitate hyper-kinetic martial arts!
