We're officially halfway through Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex as this podcast covers episodes 10 through 13. Join hosts Dennis, Ed, Karen, Kate, and returning guest Jessie for more Section 9 crime solving plus some Tachikoma shenanigans. There's a killer with a calling card that brings up some bad memories from Batou's past, a kidnapped child reappearing 16 years later, the biggest gun fight in the show so far, a missing dog case, a jaded film director, some creepy kids, and more Laughing Man memory manipulation. So check if your cyber brain is set to autistic mode and stop giving natural oils to your robots, because it's time for more GitS:SAC discussion!

On this episode, join Ed, Garrett, Dennis, Kate, & Karen for more solving crimes with Section 9 on our Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex rewatch. This time we're covering episode 5-9, with three Laughing Man related episodes, and two fun stand alone episodes. There's one with a revolutionary hero, and another with a boxy salesbot with a fun accent. There's also meeting Motoko's friends, cyborg virus vaccines, organ thieves, new chatrooms, and non-suspicious emails.

On this episode, join hosts Dennis, Ed, Karen, Kate, and first time special guest Jessie as we discuss the first four episodes of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. For listeners during the early years, this one has been a long time coming, so we are finally glad to start covering this one now. And even though this came out over 20 years ago, it still feels relevant to topics to today. So watch out for those cyber criminals, as we discuss robot kinks, film nerds, lots of Togusa, that one booty-shot of the Major, and getting to know a bit of Jessie's anime history!
