Vostok 7 Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 Sure... you guys are not much better then horses.... but at least we can get some communication, and at least you guys are bipedal.

Abombz!! Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 From Shirow to hentai to chromosomes...........it'll be interesting to see where this thread goes next.

DestroidsRage Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 I think that if your going to read naughty Hentai... You should read REALLY naughty hentai. Whats the point of drawing something a zillion people have aready thought of? You start to be forced to get very creative. Thinking of stuff like "Champaigne Bottle + Garden Hose + Bag Of Marbles = Best Seller", LOL. And im /ALL/ for that. If being creative these days, means being totally filthy minded - then more power to these naughty hentai artists. -BEN-MAN- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowlightman Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Wow, how fast this thread has turned to Vostok and Abombz needing to get a room and discussion of porno. Do we sense imminent lock-down? I hope not. Back to more Shirow-specific discussion, has anyone seen those airsoft guns based on Shirow's gun designs? Those look pretty sweet, expensive though. Or howabout the Shirow-designed computer mouse? I was considering buying it, but $70 for a mouse seems a tad high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briareos Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 What about Hagiwara Kazushi 's Bastard redo. That is pure porn now from what I've heard. I can't see what he's done since the book's 40 dollars and shrink wrapped in all the book stores. Here's something for you Ghost in the shell fans. FYI there's some more GITS stories after the first book. He did these between the two books and follows section 9 through some missions. They've been collected and put on cd called GITS 1.5. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...0&category=1345 Drew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DestroidsRage Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Which Bastard book is this? Some kind of artbook? Hagiwara Kazushi is usually /beautiful/, I'd love to see some properly done naughty stuff by him. -BEN-MAN- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What with DS wrapping his thing around naked Gabriel when he got his body back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nghia59 Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Wow! This thread has about the same amount of congruancy as one of Shirow's stories. I think that it's a master plot by him to get the next plot for Appleseed. From the start of what's he been up to ending up in chromosomes. Sounds an aweful like one of his plots. Or is it "plotz".

The Airsoft gun replica looks cool and if I were into that sort of thing, I'd probably have one of those. I also think the mouse is very cool. But the price leaves me with second thoughts.

bsu legato Posted October 3, 2003 Author Share Posted October 3, 2003 Oy, what have I created here? Back on topic, I once had a link to a whole page of Airsoft Shirow replica weapons.

bsu legato Posted October 3, 2003 Author Share Posted October 3, 2003 Question... what was GITS the video game based on? I believe it was a stand alone (no pun intended) story, but I could be wrong.

Abombz!! Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Errr... I should have been more specific. The character designs.... from where were they? None of them seemed to come from the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Errr... I should have been more specific. The character designs.... from where were they?

yellowlightman Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 The game was quite cool, very fun. Even though it was the PS1 I liked the graphics, they looked like anime long before cell shading became popular. Wish I hadn't sold it, I heard it's pretty rare now...

They're close to the original manga's designs. Although Motoko's lingerie suit was exclusive to the video game. The White outfit was exclusive until GitS: SAC where Motoko wears a more PG-Rated modified version for several epsiodes. The characters personnalities(sp) and behavior in the cutscenes appear to be much like how they are in the manga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've never read the original GITS, Abombz? Then definitely, get it! It takes a couple of readings to 'get" all of it, but I consider it the last of his classic-era stories. Plus if you get the TPB, you get something like 5-10 pages of footnotes by Shirow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsu legato Posted October 9, 2003 Author Share Posted October 9, 2003 What you say? Those are pretty cool, Exo. *goes up to GBP thread to find more info* *comes back for a moment* Does anybody have the existing Appleseed figures? Are they any good? They're still warming the shelves at my local toy store, and I thought I'd at least pick up the ORC suit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 Does anybody have the existing Appleseed figures? Are they any good? They're still warming the shelves at my local toy store, and I thought I'd at least pick up the ORC suit. Sculpting and facial details are excellent, but articulation is basically nil. I got the regular Deunan during my hunt for the similar resin kit and I'm quite happy with it. It looks a lot better than what I could do with the kit. The guns and armor represent their manga counterparts to a t. And each fig also comes with a dvd with different clips of a CG animated Appleseed story. Actually, there's no cohesive story, it looks a demo piece if anything. Come to think of it, that Deunan figure in the pic EXO dug up looks very close to the Deunan depicted in the dvds. I'm guessing those figures are based on the upcoming Appleseed flick, which could explain the chicken-legged landmate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drifand Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 The lack of articulation in the legs was kinda lame. Here's a really cool detailed figure and you can't even put them into action poses. At least some Kaiyodo figures fared better in this respect (Trigun series comes to mind), even if they are a bit fragile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
