I want one of these with Doraemon. Laughing

Though they really don't do anything together. Rats. Very Happy
Just a back to back pair of commercials.

Slightly more seriously, this is just more proof that media promoters/hucksters have no shame. But we knew that. Rolling Eyes

I hope GitS doesn't degenerate into just another bang-bang shoot 'em up spectacle, but as a fan-boy, I'm trying to keep my hopes up. Oh well.

I wish they would announce if they have the original SAC English dub cast back for this especially since this is supposed to be a sequel to SAC and it wouldn’t be the same without them.

That's the crappiest 3D CG that I have ever seen, it's as if i am looking at cheap plastic toys.

For me personally visuals in this look absolutely nice, even better than from iconic early 2000s anime.

Ilya Kuvshinov's designs simply work so well for me.

Netflix is streaming a trailer for the dub and it doesn't sound like any of the major players have been replaced.

I can’t believe GiTS is crossing over with Ultraman, off all things.

It doesn't really. These are just two ads in one promo video, that run one after the other. I guess because they were worked on by the people and companies and licensed at the same time. With similar graphic styles, I guess.

Part of me is disappointed, Laughing , and part of me isn't. Confused

Still not a fan of the look at all, but they're definitely getting all the right people back as writers.

I don't think they've posted it on their Twitter or YouTube channel yet but I saw where they have it on the site. That's great they seem to have gotten back all of the main cast. I still would have watched it if they couldn't for whatever reason but it just wouldn't be the same without Mary Elizabeth McGlynn and crew.

They do sound almost the same, I suppose some just sound a little off due to being older. It is strange that they only post the English credits at the end of the episode on a separate credit sequence, and even then it is mostly incomplete.

They do that because it contains not only English credits, but also credits for every other international dub. It’d be quite a hassle to incorporate all the international credits in the Japanese credits.
