no spoilers in my post, but only my opinion

GITS: good animation, too short, good action, okay plot, better with multiple watches

GITS SAC: good animation, good plot, good action, 8/10 really liked this series

GITS SAC 2nd Gig: more of the same, good again

GITS INNOCENCE: very good animation, but really not my kind of film, i prefer a little more action, and more of the major. not fair. just an average film in the end, nothing to get upset about missing

*COUGH* Bootleg *COUGH*

Seriously, though. If you just want to get it to see it, until you can save up a bunch of money to get the real thing, I think you can get the HK version of Eva for like 35 bucks. Not too shabby.

And the two bootlegs that I have that I liked, I did go buy the real version, I don't want to hear any of this "support the business" crap, because I do.

Or you could just download it. I have them all ripped-subbed. but i'm sure you could get your hands on some nice dual language ogm's now..

true, I could just DL them, however, I hate my small crappy monitor and speakers... I'd rather get a DVD version so I can watch it on my TV with 5.1 surround.

BTW, Impressive anime list chojin. I'll have to check if my animenfo list is updated, so I can show you what I have.

Well apparently the version i was downloading from the rls group i belong to was subbed... but it didn't work anyhow. Even without the subs, would have still been fun to see the nice animation, and brush up on my semi-non-existent japanese skills

Neon Genesis Evangelion is the best series I've seen. For comedy I'd say Chobits is top. And for samurai action I highly recommend Samurai Champloo.. great animation, interesting story.

Hawks have released two versions. they've released a cam and a dvd version both subbed. i got the cam version, subbing wasn't too amazing, quality not too good either, but watchable until i can get a US version to burn on cd

Just get a vid card with a TV out, and a soundcard that is 5.1 compatible.. probably cheaper than going out and buying everything on DVD

a few comments ^_^

1. neither of these rips is recommended if you want good subtitles.
for more info, feel free to read this thread: http://www.anime-planet.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13300

2. gits: innocence is not a sequel to the first movie

3. *points to signature* i'll remind everyone again that the anime recommendation database is quite helpful for finding new series to watch and anyone that uses animenfo is crazy, it sucks ass for getting any useful information, unless you like badly translated descriptions that make no sense and flat out wrong information in general o_O

4. if you want GITS: SAC stuff, i have about 50 promo posters from Manga (as well as about 50 each for Kai Doh Maru, Dead Leaves, and Read or Die) and am having tons of contests on the site to win them stay tuned on the main page or the global announces in the forum for more info.

5. hi orbax!
