"Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence" is beautiful, and it is still beautiful today. It is quite exquisite and full, with a variety of fusions, fashionable and modern. It still focuses on 2D style, but it has made a special effect. Just for this magical experience, "Battling in the Shell 2" wins. "Battling in the Shell 1" can be regarded as laying the foundation, the first, the Matrix, the virtual world, and there are covers in the cover, puppet robots, human-machine integration, matrix and soul. Green program codes flashed quickly on the computer screen, wasteland buildings, dark and exquisite planes flapped their glider wings, swam smoothly like fish bones, took off and landed.

"Attack in the Shell 2" is good-looking, first of all, Bart and Togusa began to tell jokes. In most cases, these two partners are searching for clues, as well as conversations. Encyclopedia-like famous quotes are inexhaustible, and they come when they open their mouths. Bart is like a vampire who has lived for hundreds of years, or you from the stars. The aliens, because of endless time and boredom, began to study poetry culture and the products of human civilization. Of course, Bart, as a prosthetic human, may just start the cultural response program to change his taste and style.

The other is the design of the scene, the Hong Kong style street that appeared in "Attack in the Shell 1". Entering such a world, the Chinese will also reminisce and be surprised. The neon signs with Chinese characters are all kinds, crowded, noisy and prosperous. "Attack in the Shell 2" upgrades the Hong Kong style neighborhood, with more signboards and shops, chooses to catch the island, the statue of the fierce god, the warping-style building, the big golden pig, the big golden elephant, sacrificial processions and ceremonies. People are amazed. Not only that, horror Gothic cathedrals, Russian and Yugoslav-style monumental giant statues, 3D modeling virtual worlds full of plasticity, fell into dreams, hacked into electronic brains and tampered with thinking paths. Bart and Togu Sasso take the audience to experience the magical island of choice and capture, children's songs, and a labyrinth-like virtual world.

Mamoru Oshii either likes Hong Kong very much, or it may be because he watched a lot of Hong Kong movies as a child. The Hong Kong style of the scene design, the all-cyberpunk Kowloon Walled City neighborhood plus the Victoria Harbor-style high-rise buildings, are both modern and bustling and noisy and dirty. The most surprising thing is that the final battle entered the big ship of the robot manufacturing company. The voice communication between the security systems inside the big ship turned out to be mechanical Cantonese, and it was surprising and dancing. It was not Chinese who might not be able to hear it. is an alien language.

The story of Attack in the Shell 1 is that bad guys want to do bad things, so they designed code hackers to hack into the electronic brains of different people to do bad things. The story of Attack in the Shell 2 is still that bad guys want to do bad things, but the nature is even worse. They want to imprison real ghosts in robots, and combine program code control to mass-produce intelligent robots with so-called human nature. The result of this is that many human beings are imprisoned and become the source of nutrient solution for the brain. And the robots produced in this way, because they are human, can't stand inhuman treatment and start to go crazy.

But isn't the major a combination of a real ghost and a virtual hacker code? It is worth noting that the major has a super-human brain ghost, and the hacker puppet master of "Ghost in the Shell 1" is a super-powerful hacker made by a robot company with painstaking efforts. Evolution, began to appear humanoid attributes, began to mutate out of control. This string of hacker codes with humanity, its goal is to be stronger and more diverse, because the single is easily destroyed, and it is also a string of virtual codes. Then the super powerful real ghost of the major is the best choice for the puppet master. The puppet master found the major, full of logic and romance, so he persuaded the major. The two finally combined at a time of crisis . Such a combination of real people and virtual ghosts is taking the initiative. Under the premise of voluntariness, the universe can't resist it, and the powerful alliance feels earth-shattering. The major has the immortal realm where the puppet master is pervasive and if there is a net, and the puppet master is nourished and nourished by the real ghost of the major.

The robot company that wants to do bad things in Attack in the Shell 2 violates the premise of voluntary initiative. People want to have a harder body, so they developed a prosthetic body, and a prosthetic body appeared. The replacement of the prosthetic body and the development of robots have greatly improved the efficiency of work and life. There is no problem, it is all OK and legal. But for greater gimmicks and interests, imprisoning a real ghost is unreasonable, so Hadley's new robot developed in "The Shell 2" began to have bugs from time to time, killing people first, then committing suicide, before dying, calling for help I was really in pain, and in the end, the robot and the real ghost were wiped out together.

Many cases of robot killings and suicides occurred frequently. Bart and Togusa appeared as partners, and the two intervened in the investigation on behalf of the 9th Section of the Public Security. Detective Togusa was born and is a real human being transformed by an electronic brain. His combat power and reaction ability are far less than that of Bart and Major, but he is the one chosen by Major. He has wives, daughters, feelings and flesh and blood.

On Bart's side, he raised a dog. In order to give the dog's favorite dog food, he went to the same convenience store to buy it day after day. He did not hesitate to create a single action route and provided hackers with an opportunity to sneak in. The place where the hackers sneaked in, the major can also enter, so I left a secret reminder for Bart, and at the critical moment, he appeared and fought side by side with Bart. Put a coat on the Major. After that, the same routine was followed. The major found the interface of the central control system and used the body-shattering method again, sneaking in to destroy and destroy the big boss.

The combination of Bart and Major is tacitly invincible and full of tragic brokenness and decisiveness. To a certain extent, such cooperation comes from time and space and accidental favor. Bart asked if the current Major is happy? The Major replied that these values ​​full of humanity are both nostalgic and unfamiliar. A major with real and virtual double ghosts, existing in the wider world.

Bart picked up the foster dog from Togusa's house, still trying and continuing to export humanity and memory. In the arms of Togusa's daughter was a doll with dull eyes smiling, this doll kept smiling, eternally innocent, just like a robot.

    The 95 version of GIS shocked me too much. Masamune Shirou let an angel descend on the world tree mottled with bullets and rain, and he has completed the steps of becoming a god. The innocence after 8 years is more like a description of being trapped in the world. Bart's messy life. The loss of the elegant and noisy background music, the cheap, deformed and uncontrolled stream of consciousness CG seems to be showing Bart's pain, and the doll that loses its prime and collapses at the end is more cruel than false data or dreams...

    I like the little detail that Bart helps the dog put his ears outside the food bowl when he feeds the dog.

  • Lin: We got loyalty even in my line.

    Bateau: There's loyalty that protects secrets and loyalty that projects the truth. You cannot serve both masters, so which loyalty is yours?
