The writing and voice acting are the only redeeming aspects of this season. But it's still not enough to save it..

The presentation is very poor. Bad character designs, horrible CGI, backgrounds and weird animation. Also the lack of Yoko Kanno's score is another insult to the SAC series. This was not the return GITS SAC deserves. Please go back to beautiful 2D hand drawn animation and Yoko Kanno's music.… Expand

the 3d animation was so awful, it almost looked fake. looks like some novice animator worked on this.

It's very difficult to get past the aesthetic of the show. I don't know how they made a 'post-apocalyptic' world look and feel so sterile. It has no grit or mood.

I don't know how they made a 'post-apocalyptic' world look and feel so sterile. It has no grit or mood. There are some character changes that I don't think benefit the show (Batou's selfless kamakaze scream as he laughs like a psychopath when being shot at is an example). Drawn out fights with insignificant characters annoyed me. A gang they encounter wear football uniforms like "The Baseball Furies" in The Warriors lol. There's lots of terribly corny action scenes, which means there's less time for intellectual story in their 20 minute episodes. Your hand is held the entire way. To describe it as a mashup, it's GitS x Avengers in the art style of Reboot.....or a Discount Clone Wars...… Expand

I didn't think the CGI was as bad as other reviewers - but there were plenty of other things to let it down such as the childish feel which wasn't present in the earlier series.

I get the feeling it was dumbed down a lot to appeal to a more general audience (many of the earlier iterations were quite difficult to follow in places with a complex but rewarding story)… Expand

La animación es 3D se siente muerta, el Cgi es malo, los personajes apenas muestran gestos faciales, los efectos especiales y las escenas de lucha carecen de espectacularidad, la historia es medianamente entretenida, el opening es un asco ( yLa animación es 3D se siente muerta, el Cgi es malo, los personajes apenas muestran gestos faciales, los efectos especiales y las escenas de lucha carecen de espectacularidad, la historia es medianamente entretenida, el opening es un asco ( y te lo dice una persona que jamás se salta el opening de un anime), ah y no hay que olvidar que ahora la Mayor Kusanagi es una feminista empoderada que no duda en sancionar “micromachismos”, como si la Mayor tuviera la necesidad de demostrarles a otros lo fuerte que es. En fin, otro asqueroso y nada respetuoso intento americano de entrar al mundo del anime, y contaminarlo con ideas progres. Si quieres pasar el rato te recomiendo que te vas de nuevo las primeras series en ves de ver esta.… Expand

Animation, story, dialog and decisions made by the characters all make this feel like a (bad) RPG that never got released but turned into a game play video instead.
I kept expecting dialog choices to pop up on screen.

I kept expecting dialog choices to pop up on screen.
I gave this a 2 for the dub cast, who doesn't suck, but that's about the only thing.
Many reviews say this is the worst iteration of the franchise, but it's even worse than that.
Most likely you won't get through more than a couple episodes before bailing.… Expand
