While I’ve never seen the movies or read the manga (except for a preview in a magazine I had), Ghost In The Shell is one of my favorite anime productions thanks to the Stand Alone Complex television series. which I highly recommend. As part of the Did You Know: Anime series, the DYK researchers look at some interesting facts about the manga and the first two movies, and their impact on Hollywood. The guest narrator (the various “Did You Know” shows all have guest narrators) is also interesting, as instead of an internet personality they got Richard Epcar, who voiced Batou, one of the characters from the franchise, in the English dub.
You can catch more anime facts on Did You Know Anime‘s YouTube page.
