SHOWNOTES: Due to technical difficulties, we had to skip over this episode as the second part of our Anime Month, but with those now resolved, we are happy to release our review of Ghost in the Shell, joined once again by our friends at the Retro Anime Podcast! This 1995 tech noir cyberpunk anime film based on the manga of the same name is a seminal picture for not only anime fans, but movie buffs in general, right along with the likes of Akira (covered previously on our show). If you enjoy this episode, stay tuned for our next one on the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special, "The Day of the Doctor"!
