I wanted and expected it to be the best GitS media but they kind of fumbled a little towards the end IMO. Great show regardless and I would recommend it. It’s probably the best looking adaptation but it was just very hard to follow at times despite lots of exposition. To me it only ranks 3rd after the movie and SAC, unfortunately. I just liked what they did with the material more plus the themes hit much harder back then than they do now.

Is it about complexity though? Gachiakuta isn’t complex at all (although pretty fun) and JJK is just random BS the author wrote on the fly (Makes for crazy visuals but you never know the stakes so it dampens tension a lot).

It can be pretty funny, though. Especially in Gachiakuta’s case. Really reminded me of the gun draw scene in Indiana Jones which probably popularized that joke.

However I only found it upsetting in JJK’s case and a little gut wrenching in Fate’s case here. I didn’t think those moments were supposed to be funny at all.

Kinda hate the name changes a lot just because they make it even harder to follow. I’m bad with names anyway and I can’t for the life of me remember these fantasy names that don’t even sound like countries.

Still really like it, but this really isn’t helping with my one big complaint about this otherwise fantastic adaption.

One thing history books get wrong is that the Meji restoration never stopped apparently.
