Kenji Kamiyama returns with a fantastic second outing of the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex anime series.As with "The Laughing Man" film, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG - Individual Eleven is a compilation of the important pieces of important episodes of the second season of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Along Complex. Hence, 2nd GIG.The run time is around 2 hours and 40 minutes and this isn't surprising, as a season consists of 20+ episodes. No matter how long it is, the futuristic high tech story is so engrossing that even during the slow parts, the film is never boring.The visuals are just as superb as the story, and when it is combined with Kamiyama's directing, this becomes one heck of an animation.Each of the major characters, as well as all smaller characters, have matching voice work that make this a film to take seriously. In English or Japanese, this is not a comedy to just sit back and relax with.Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG - Individual Eleven is for those that are already fans of the series. Superb animation, if I may say so.
