I never have gotten around to watching Ghost in the Shell or Patlabor for that matter but with all the praise you guys give these shows I might need to check it out.

So, when you say 'creative works' do you mean, anything?

_________________

Didn't have any interest in Ghost in the Shell round up part.
So no mail bag and no bits with the news articles of mine in there, so that leaves the last segment.
Was interesting to hear little bits about their Raijin-oh release and all.
I hope Anime Midstream get somewhere and maybe they can rescue old titles or not.
Also interesting to hear their ideas or workings for dubbing the series ect.

That is all I've got.

Mu, you keep making mention of your news submissions and/or Mailbag questions not being used, and I'm not sure why. As we've always said with Neo's News and the Mailbag, just because you post something, it doesn't guarantee it will be used. Although we've used plenty of your submissions in both segments, it doesn't mean you're always going to get something in. Don't take it personally or anything.

I'm not, just saying this episode, there was only really 1 segment caught my interest and jumped to that one.

So not taking it personally, just that with my last bunch of questions I thought one of them might get picked at least.

I keep on trying when I have ideas or things to post anyway.
Sometimes the ideas or questions are a little lacking or not too appealing probably to pick.

good show guys,

as for my news submission, I've never actually watched Aquarian Age, just saw the news on the web and thought it would be info for you to pass along.

I really enjoyed the segment on GITS 2nd Gig. Truth be told I really enjoyed the Laughing man story arc more than the individual eleven. I'm not entirely sure why, maybe I just enjoyed the chase as apposed the polotical fighting. I did however enjoy the "stand alone" episodes much more in the series becuase of the episodes that gave more depth the supporting characters within Section 9. In this season The major came across as a human being as apposed to season 1.

Oh and one more thing,.......Neo you can't kick a guy when he's down when he stands above you

It just occured to me. Who do you think is a 'Soul Bro' man in Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. It could be either for each season or the entire series.

Inquiring minds wants to know

This was a good ep, with the ghost in the shell roundup, it was nice to hear it, the anime interview was very cool as it reminds us that the people working in the anime industry are still people and not faceless and do care about their work when they put it out.
