I once said that some works have an unshakable position in the long history of human cinema.
They are not ordinary entertainment pastimes, on the contrary, the producers also buried a very deep philosophical speculation on life and society, life and nature, and so on.
You and I have not seen these works less, and whenever they appear on the screen, we can always see the word "God's Work" emerging on the bullet screen.
Miyazaki is one of them, and Miyako's "Valley of the Wind" can be regarded as the first full-length work since the establishment of Ghibli, but under the supervision of his old man, "the beginning is the peak", in the most brutal and shocking way, he lashed out at the ambition of human beings to invade nature, and also repeatedly contrasted and satirized the ignorance and arrogance of human beings under the mother of nature.
In addition, Oshii's "Ghost in the Shell" created by Oshii Mori is the second.
This work was first born in 1995, and although it has been 25 years since then, no work has been able to surpass it on the proposition of "meaning of life", and even the "sequel" created by Oshii Mori has never had such ability.
Today, Douban's high score of 9.0 in more than 88,000 reviews is enough to explain the sharpness of this animation.
But the past does not mean that the future cannot be. Today's episode I will bring you a new Japanese manga that will be released in April 2020, and it is also a sequel to Ghost in the Shell, so that you can understand its quality before it is released.

First of all, it needs to be emphasized that this work was invested and filmed by the famous Netflix company. This also means that the "full episode broadcast" model that we have seen and once acted on works such as "Mobile Ultraman", "Nanao Saiki" and so on is also likely to be continued (all episodes will be broadcast at once at the moment of launch).
As a leader in the streaming media industry and a challenger to the traditional film and television industry, the wealthy Netflix has always been regarded as "daddy" by producers, and is also regarded as the dawn of the "rise of The Day".
With this premise, can this new "Ghost in the Shell" be sure that "we will not be disappointed"?
Sorry, my answer may disappoint you: the new version of Ghost in the Shell does still meet the protagonists of the first version (Suko Kusanagi, Bart, etc.), but according to the latest trailer released so far, this work may have completely lost its "soul".

As long as you have seen the old version of "Ghost in the Shell", you will definitely have a deep imprint on The appearance of Kusanagi Suko.
She is far from gorgeous, but Suzi's cold appearance and unfazed attitude in the face of anything really make people feel safe and feel awe-inspired. In view of the original animation's discussion of the definition of human beings and the meaning of life, the image of Suzi has indeed been great in the past 20 years.
But when things came in April 2020, the former goddess suddenly became so lolita---
Grass grass vegetarian three-dimensional, but also low childish, from which angle to watch, can always feel "full of cuteness", properly become a grounded otaku good daughter-in-law.
Again, the "textbook" gunfights and action scenes that were originally seen in the old version of Ghost in the Shell ---
I can only say that the word "hardcore" is not made up with exaggerated explosion effects, and after watching the fierce battlefield shown above, I believe that you can clearly understand the meaning of "destroying and decaying".
But when things come to the new fan, we see such a change of picture---
You can't say no, just two or two comparisons, always feel several orders of magnitude less shock, completely turned into a mediocre battle picture.
The above content is my complaint about the visual dimension of the new version of Ghost in the Shell. Of course, I know that the evaluation of a film and television work can never be judged only from the "picture" dimension, and the most core thing must be "connotation".
Can the new version of "Ghost in the Shell" continue the deep embodiment of the old version in the plot dimension?
Sorry, judging from what the trailer shows so far, it seems to be a bit of a hanging ---
Note the following words:
"He's not human, that's posthuman"
"All the troops are equipped with the latest electronic brains, which are now invaded by 1 second"
"This is the first time in human history that humanity has come together against the same enemy."
It can be seen that the new version of the animation sets a new species "post-human" (estimated to be an evolution of AI, similar to the robot in the old version) in the plot, and they also unexpectedly went to a situation of confrontation with all humans.
In the plot, Kusanagi Suiko should play the role of the commander of the struggle against the post-humans, leading Bart and others through many fierce battles.
This setting first overturns the worldview that the original work laid out at the beginning of the game, "the Internet has been everywhere, but there is still a conspiracy between countries", because the emergence of common enemies has now moved towards Datong.
In addition, such a clear villain setting and Suzi's resoluteness on behalf of human beings also seems to completely erase the doubts that the old version of the plot Suzi once had about the definition of humans, and the animation may have completely become a "science fiction action film".
I don't know if Ghost in the Shell, which has completely lost the two dimensions of "vision" and "connotation", is still worth watching for anime fans. But in my opinion, if this work wants to compete for the April supremacy in 2020, it is obviously a bit of a hanging (you know, the original Digimon remake will also be released in April this year).
Well, good or bad, we might as well wait patiently for more than 2 months.
