(Ghost in the Shell)
Ghost in the Shell is a manga series by Masamune Shirow published by Kodansha about cyborg agents in a cyberpunk world of the near future. It is has been released as an animated movie by Kodansha, Bandai Visual, and Manga Entertainment, Inc.
There is now a graphics novel release of this series in English, with the official translation of most of the words in the original manga book (the exception is the two color pages that got censored), published by Dark Horse Comics. So I will only do the following bit of the prologue as a sample.
You may prefer the version with Japanese.
THE GHOST IN THE SHELL
The corporate network has spread to the stars, and streams of electrons and photons are rushing everywhere. This is the near future: even with all this change in information, countries and nationalities have not been swallowed up.
