Product Description After their prior confrontations with Gohda, Section 9 continues their investigation into this man and his mysterious background. However, at the same time, they must stop a wave of suicide bombers who threaten the peace and safety of Japan. Set Contains: As the second season of Stand Alone Complex continues, it remains edgier and more contemporary than the first. The agents of Public Security Section 9 face a new crisis as the conflict over the status of the refugees worsens: suicide bombers attacking public targets in Japan. Kuze, the would-be assassin of the Prime Minister, whom Major Kusanagi outwitted, is deliberately fueling that crisis. When the Major encounters sinister Kazundo Gohda in cyberspace, the viewer learns the significance of the term Stand Alone Complex. But the most intriguing story development is an apparent digression that hints at the Major's origins. The desgners make increasing use of CG to give the abstract cyberworld a physical reality that is stylistically different from the regular settings. Extras include interviews with animation directors Kenichi Takeshita and Toshiyuki Kono, and series director Kenji Kamiyama. The Special Edition offers one disc with Dolby Digital 5.1 audio, the other with DTS and stereo, plus easy-to-assemble plastic figures of Major Kusanagi and a Tachikoma robot. (Rated 13 and older: violence, violence against women, brief nudity, alcohol and tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

This is what Anime should be
Serious, robotic, intelligent, with a smokin' cartoon cyborg chick. I'm bored of fantasy anime, I want more science fiction! If you are not on the GitS bandwagon yet, you are dumb.

Stand Alone Complex, story continues
I liked this series, but in my opinion, the puppeteer hacker character is not quite as good as ths laughing man storyline of original Stand Alone Complex, and the message is not quite as profound. This still has great animation, but just didn't hold my interest like the other SAC's did. I still favor the original movie best of all.

ist ok, doch nicht überragend
ist nicht mit dem Hauptfilm zu vergelichen... die Erzählung hat eingie Lücken, doch zur Abrundeung der gesamten Stand Alone Complex kann man den Film schon anschauen.
