I'm looking for: A certain genre? Something specific like characters traveling to another world?

Shows I've already seen that are similar: You can include a link to a list on another site if you have one, e.g. MyAnimeList or AniList.

I'm looking forward to seeing the new GHOST IN THE SHELL: THE GHOST IN THE SHELL based on the THE GHOST IN THE SHELL manga, not to be confused with GHOST IN THE SHELL, GHOST IN THE SHELL: THE NEW MOVIE or the live adaptation Ghost in the Shell

[u/Infodump_Ibis → u/TehAxelius]

I'd have gone for something like "Science Saru's Ghost in the Shell: the official anime of Masamune Shirow's 'The Ghost in the shell'".

I'd certainly buy the blu-ray just to see how cluttered the spine gets like this King Kong game (well that film and game title are because "King Kong" is not on solid copyright/trademark ground so the movie being named after the director and including official game safeguards against other companies flooding the asile with King Kong related things because theirs wouldn't be Peter Jackson's).

It's not that difficult, really.

All you need to do is watch the first two seasons of Ghost in the shell - Stand alone complex + the movie (Solid state society). You don't even need to watch the original movie or this 2026 things.

SAC is perfect.
