With such an EXTREME analysis on the new Ghost in the Shell TV series, I must say I am impressed. You, like many others here ^_^, have WWAAAYYYY too much time on your hands.
Though I must disagree with one thing you said. I'm certain that the TV Series simply couldn't put out as much "blatant" nudity as the Movie did. I happen to like the TV Motoko design better than the TV version. In all honesty, which one gave out more "skin for pound" fanservice? TV vs. Movie? I rest my case...
The other techno-babble information however is quite good. You scare me...
For some reason, the tv series feels like each episode (damnit, I only saw 2 of them!) is a mini - movie! Perhaps it's just the way things flowed. The "shosa" way the Tachikoma's cheer is also quite good. These mecha now have my "award" as most adorable mofo robots around!!! "yay yay! That's our major! ^_^" Gotta love those little guys. I want one! Complete with a Major Kusanagi tucked in back...
In all seriousness now, I'm still unsure about the NES Project. I just signed on now, am still at school, got a bummed out partial credit test rape on my hands, and now have 2 more weeks for my NEXT test! I'm hoping for the Crystal Rave mix to be waiting for me...
Let see, CEMM 260, Math 210, ChE 210, and CHEM 342. Yes, I'm doing "fine" in 3 except one of them.... Yes that's right PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY 342!!! [AAARRRGGGHHH!!!]
Let's see my #1 recommendations again...
Onegai Teacher [the oav preview just slayed me... ^_^]
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex [awesome music, animation, (there's worse cg out there, believe me), character design, (I didn't like the "mature/older" movie Motoko) and the TACHIKOMAS! THEY'RE SOOOO CUTE!!!
[^_^]
Hey I just realized, they seem to be voiced by the voice of SUMOMO from Chobits. May I have a confirmation of this from any of you?
Send me a PM because I can't keep track of all of your journal entries... ^_^

and SO AM I!!!!
I'M READY TO EDIT EVEN ON HIATUS!!!!
All I need to do is wait till I get my confirmation from the big MJ or Fluxmeister...
I wonder, will it be by email group or forum announcement?
:(
One note, I'll take ANY of the final fantasy mixes you directors!

Ok...
Since GitSSAC isn't in the org's database yet, I'll add it in later...
Just saw episode 2. My hunch was correct. Each episode is "disconnected" in a Ranma 1/2 sort of way...
^_^ YEAAAAHH!!!
A series of awesome animation and action of this high calibur and they pulled off each ep seamlessly as if each 30 mins viewing is it's own fucking theatrical release!
Perhaps I'm exaggerating, or not... ^_^ But this thing is just so damn good! The gag is, I wasn't expecting this GOOD of a production due to the fact that the theatrical release just didn't grab me as "super amazing"...
I can't wait to see episode 3 now!
What's more, if any of you have the FULL SOUNDTRACK size song files of Yoko Kanno's "Inner Universe", "Heaven's Dance", (I think that's the name of the combat bgm... ^_^) or "Lithium Flower", drop me a line. I'm also going for the guess that the Music during the eps is another reason that hooked me. (much like Noir, only GITSSAC has "remixed" versions of its main songs playing in a new style during each episode thus far...)
KEEP IT GOING PRODUCTION I.G.!
Also, just finished watching ep 3 of Mahoromatic II (Season 2 to be exact) HOT DAMN THERE'S A LOT OF FANSERVICE IN THIS TV SERIES! Just imagine each episode of Maid in Hanaukyo to be 25 mins instead of 10 and you have Mahoromatic Season 2!!! 0_0
Also got wind of the anime "Kiddy Grade" by Studio Gonzo Digimation!
WTF! HOW MANY DIFFERENT ANIME DID GONZO PRODUCE NOW!
HELLSING
VANDREAD SEASONS 1-2
GATEKEEPERS AND GATEKEEPERS 21
KIDDY GRADE
BLUE SUBMARINE NO.6
SAISHU HEIKI KANOJO (barf...)
A HUGE amount of Pioneer's domestically released anime now has Gonzo written all over them...

Typing up reviews for the moment...
mah life is dull with out the forums...
HELL! BRING BACK THE PHORUMS! THEY MAY BE DULL AND OLD, BUT THEY WERE THE CLASSICS!
If you recieve a review from me, send me a private msg (yes I still visit the forums for those) or an email if you want me to read your response cause frankly, going through 200+ videos looking for pink slots (oooh, pink) is painful to mah eyes...

Don't ask about that entry title, me not fully awake yet...
Just got done reading some peeps on my buddy list journals... (Some of you may know you're on it, some may not... ^_^)
Wow, I wonder what the frell is going on in amv town?
NES Project?
DDR 2 Project Take 2 toppled?
It's like armageddon on a smaller scale!
Forums have fallen...
ARGH! That's fine... With Death comes Rebirth. (the title is good, the movie sucked)
Just finished watching the Ghost in the Shell Original Movie. I was right, the music and character design for the movie is inferior to the TV series. The TV series Motoko has much more "youthful" and vibrant look than her "mature" movie counterpart. That and she's more kick ass in the TV series in my opinion. Also, she's not the ONLY one to use Thermoptic Camoflouge in the tv series. ^_^ (Good thing nobody has to get naked. Her male teammates may end up like that had they followed the "movie" premise... ewww...)
Thinking about what to do next...
I know! I'll go to school!
