Ghost in the Shell with Billy (CommanderCast)

Listen on

Episode notes

Future tech heavy police states where still a thing of the future when we recorded this episode I swear. Can we please go back to simpler times where almost everything in Ghost in the Shell was fictional instead of just the tech?

Listen in as Billy from CommanderCast joins the show and through the power of recording way ahead of time we blissfully think that there’s no way that Ghost in the Shell could ever actually be happening in the real world. Please tell me we were right about that, even if it’s a lie.

Learn such things as:

  • Is this anime really as good as the fans say it is?

  • How can you do a tie in licensed game well?

  • What’s the secret to getting beautiful anime cut scenes?

  • And so much more!
