As exellent as the 1st GIG introduce a sci-fi touched reality, the 2nd GIG continues. The storyline establishs a well-conceived plot with a nice tension built-up, which makes you desire to watch the next episode. Also the content fits awesome into the political and social environment from the other parts.
The animation itself satisfies any requirement i would personal request from an anime and it fits well into the scenario.

Overall GitS is worth watching if you like sci-fi touched, well-conceived realites with a tension filled storyline and touching character development. (show less)

As with season 1, this series is an excellent social and political commentary on top of being superb sci-fi. Everyything seems purposeful towards driving the plot and themes and it goes without saying, you must watch season 1 (1st gig) to truly appreciate the level of thought that has gone into this adaptation. To be honest I wasn't a fan of the theatrical GitS (not the stand alone complex ones; those are all excellent) but this seems to be more faithful to the manga plotline.
This is one of those series where if you engage your mind fully when watching, the rewards are of boundless entertainment and a deep thoughtful view on our world leaving us questioning the present day and mindful of where we are potentially heading. (show less)
