DVD Reviews of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, 2nd GIG, Volume 07 (Special Edition)

DVD Review: A fantastic ending...
Summary: 5 Stars

If you've made it here, to volume 7, I imagine that you're already a fan of the series, or at least want to know if it's going to end in some weird way that will leave everyone confused. You shouldn't worry...the last episodes are rich in intensity and philosophy, and won't leave you disappointed. As a big GitS fan, I listen to the soundtrack a lot, and to hear the song in the last episode...gave me chills. I had to watch it twice, it was so great.

Now, on to the rest of the stuff to convince you why you should or shouldn't spring for the collector's edition, my personal opinion is a wholehearted yes. I own both series of Stand Alone Complex, and always make it a point to buy the last one in the collector's edition, because of the fantastic case. This one is as impressive as the first, if not moreso. I heard that there were issues with the first season that if you bought the collectors editions all the way through, that they wouldn't fit in the metal case. That isn't an issue with this case, as it is plenty big to store all of them. The included soundtrack, while not as strong as the SAC soundtrack itself, is another winner from Yoko Kanno. That selling point actually makes the sale worthwhile in and of itself. Lastly there's a little figurine of the Major, which is decent quality. It's not something to buy the set for, but not bad either.

Buy this set! You won't regret it!

DVD Review: And again nukes over Nagasaki...
Summary: 5 Stars

A very well constructed story.

The end is a bit open, ok, but I think there is no following series planned.

Compared with sac its perhaps a little more action, but its ok for me :)

DVD Review: Better than the 1st season
Summary: 5 Stars

This season has a tighter story line and more character back stories (we find out more about the Major and others). There's more action per episode and less of the chit-chat that the first series had. Plus the Tachicomas are back! A must-have for any Ghost in the Shell fan.

DVD Review: Superb packaging...
Summary: 5 Stars

This 2 disc set is packaged in a very nicely made large metal box with room for the other volumes in the series if you feel the need to remove them from the original cardboard packaging (you'll lose your Otaku status if you do). The box is well adorned with imagery from the series and is a very good idea and generous from Bandai considering that we'd have bought a normal cardboard box with joy. Thanks Bandai - appreciated!

DVD Review: Completes 2nd season, nice packaging
Summary: 5 Stars

So they actually ship you two metal boxes: 1) just like the other six parts, a thin case with a round cutout to show the disk graphics. 2) A large case with seven slots and a ribbon to lift boxes out with. There is a cut on the end of the large box to show the disk graphics as well. The lid on the large box has slices of the disk graphics and numbers to key the disks. The toy is Motoko with what looks like a gate/portal. Two DVDs (dts and dolby) as normal.

I followed this on laughing man fansubs and was not able to follow of the subtleties of the second season very well. Watching the second season over as it is released, I'm catching much more of the details and seeing more of the affinity between Motoko and Kuze.

Word is a third feature film is on the way too.

Description of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, 2nd GIG, Volume 07 (Special Edition)

The Prime Minister is taken into custody, but her removal from office is being kept secret. Aramaki and Togusa work to get to her so they can prevent a nuclear attack. In Dejima, the military begins its assault. The Major and some of Section 9 try their best to defuse the situation, and the injured Ishikawa tries to deliver the rest of the plutonium to the authorities to prove their case. During the fighting, the Major and Kuze become trapped beneath the rubble together. The Tachikomas inform her that there is a nuclear submarine just out of sensor range. Batou, meanwhile, gets the rangers who are pursuing them to stop fighting and listen to him. Things are starting to go Section 9's way, but the nuclear missile is still being prepared for launch! The explosive second season of Ghost in the Shell ends now!
