Overall Verdict The Ghost in the Shell (GITS) franchise is the cyberpunk equivalent of 2001: A Space Odyssey —dense, philosophical, and visually revolutionary. However, unlike a single linear saga, GITS is a multiverse of reboots . Each timeline offers a different flavor of transhumanist dread.
No other franchise has asked "What is a human?" with such relentless seriousness. It is not entertaining in the Marvel sense. It is important . Watch it on the biggest screen you have.
