I hope the show still remains the fun, fanservice aspect of the original and wasn't censored and politicized by netflix western, feminist producers like a lot of other japanese and european franchises

It's still amazing to me that someone I've been watching on DeviantArt is working on such high-profile professional works. First The Birthday Wonderland, and now Ghost in the Shell?

I have to say, I really like that they're experimenting with new looks.When I saw the test footage, I was really enthusiastic at the new look.I don't hate the old look at all and I don't think it's a bad thing to experiment with new media.If the story is good, then this will surely open a few eyes as to what you can do with stylized 3d. I'm glad they didn't try to make everyone look like traditional anime characters , with this look, the characters are individuals and only certain elements exaggerated for effect, rather than the way anime characters can start to look generic in a lot of new media.I'm looking forward to seeing this when it comes out and it looks like you've found a good balance.

How the fuck is he "experimenting with new looks"? it's the exact same girl he's been drawing for a decade, vaguely cosplaying as Motoko, rendered the same way he's always drawn.

Everything you draw, but since it says on your profile that you're an "other", I guessed wrong. You merely draw like an autistic ugly chick with bad taste in cartoons, even though you're a guy. My mistake.

Says the person who's own gallery is littered with drawings of literally the same girl styled with nothing more than different clothing and different hairstyles and nothing but gradient backgrounds. Hate on it all you like, but he's the one designing characters for a major film production and you are just hating from the sidelines. Not to mention the fact that he's got two art books published with a 95% five star ratings on Amazon between his two published works. Obviously the studio he's working for things something of his artwork, else they'd have someone else designing their characters.

Let's demolish that web of fallacies
1- he probably does not deserve this 5 star rating, which makes that point irrelevant as it does not magically improve the quality of this design.
2- he is not working for a major film production he is working for a netflix cashgrab series done on the cheap with primitive CG. Shows how much you know.
3- just because IG productions picked him does not mean they actually know who's right for the job, maybe he was the cheapest, maybe they just have shit taste, maybe they're crazy, maybe some incompetent Netflix exec forced him onto them because he's popular on twitter.
4- he does not deserve to be working on it, neither does any character designer outside of maybe Shirow (if he can unfuck himself) and Tony Takezaki
5- my gallery is in fact not littered with "literally" drawings of the same girl, unlike Ilya's
6- even if that were true, it would not magically make this design "a new look". Because it's not. It's the same as always. Two wrongs do not cancel each other out. Avoid whataboutism.
7- keep liking it, but don't pretend it's new and good.
Are we clear?

Trying to pass off your opinions as facts is the desperation of a weak mind. Tell me, just what studio is approaching you for your work and I'll concede you know what you're talking about. Tell me, "How many Art books do you have published?" If the answer is none, it means you're just jealous of another artists success and frustrated at your lack of success as an artist. Rather than congratulate someone on their achievement from this community you are disingenuously attacking their body of work like you're an expert when it's clear you're not. And like all other mediocre artists with a chip on their shoulder, you equate yourself to more than what you are. Your opinions mean nothing to anyone other than you. So if you're going to post hostile posts on someone else's congratulations comment, you deserve the embarrassment that you get. Everyone is getting to see just how unhinged and petty you are. Congratulations on outing yourself as the self important idiot you are.

Right back at you, what makes YOU think that you have any idea what you're talking about? What makes YOU think your opinion on Ilya is accurate? Where are YOUR credentials? What makes YOU defend this so viciously and with so many low blows, stock arguments and blatant fallacies?
I've already demolished your attempts to defend him, now all you're left with is an irrelevant assumption that I may not be very competent myself (no shit), AS IF it took an expert to tear this down.
I repeat: having published artbooks and been picked to work on a show are NOT clear signs of talent and competence, they can be signs of many things, such as, being a hack fraud. Anybody with half a brain can see that he's not the right man for the job, even he can, but since he's already too invested in this career to pass on such an opportunity, he seized it. That's all there is to it, opportunism.
Congrats on outing yourself as a rabid fanboy with a preschooler's grasp on logic and no taste.

I made no claims to being an expert at anything. Work on your reading comprehension. I congratulated him on his success because I've been following him for a few years and I'm happy to see someone succeed at following their dreams, and I expressed my opinion on the Ghost in a Shell project. You were the one who started trying to talk down to me as though you're the end authority on all things Anime related, so I called you out on it. You didn't answer any of my questions so I'm guessing that you don't have any art books published, or or are working on any actual Anime/Film productions, so my original observations are accurate. The question you should be asking yourself is why are you so angry that he's doing well? But that's uncomfortable to you apparently because all of your efforts seem to be aimed at tearing someone else down rather than building yourself up, which is loser mentality. Perhaps we grew up in different time periods because everything you say pretty much tells me just how insecure and petty you are. You're like a Chihuahua barking at everything when you know deep down you're just a Chihuahua and I'm pretty sure that no one here's giving what you say a dime's worth of any significance.

Yet more non-sequitur bullshit assumptions.
I never claimed to be an end authority, nobody needs to be an authority in order to realize that this is not "a new look" for Ilya's shit.
Just because I didn't answer your questions doesn't mean I never had my work published professionally. That does not follow logically.
I didn't answer your questions because they're fucking irrelevant. Let's say I never published anything, does that magically make Ilya stop sucking as a character designer? No it does not.
That's why I asked you the same questions back: to make you understand that they're stupid questions. Of course you don't need to have any credentials in order to defend him; what you need is common sense and to make accurate observations. But you never did.
The opinion you expressed on this project was factually inaccurate: you called it a big movie production.
I know exactly why I'm angry: I have emotional investment into the GitS franchise and I don't like it when it keeps being shitty. I get even angrier when I see people praise the things that make it suck instead of the things that make it good.
Now why are YOU so vehemently defending him? All your efforts seem to be aimed at propping Ilya up instead of building yourself up, living vicariously through HIS dubious achievements instead of achieving things yourself, which is typical loser mentality. Perhaps we grew up in different time periods because everything you say pretty much tells me just how insecure and petty you are. You're like a Chihuahua barking at everything when you know deep down you're just a Chihuahua and I'm pretty sure that no one here's giving what you say a dime's worth of any significance.
Grow up.

You posted your opinions, but you don't want to acknowledge anyone else's as valid unless they mirror yours. Since you don't want to respect my opinions I'm going to finish this off with some facts. Try and keep up junior --the numbers are pretty big.
His popularity as an artist is easily provable.

He has nearly 600 times the number of favorites you do. You have .3% of his popularity and .4% of the pageviews he has. Now tell me again how I'm misunderstanding his popularity as an artist. Dude you have 0 Favorites! So tell me again how I don't know what I'm talking about. You're not even in the 1% percentile when it comes to comparison. In statistics, we call this negligible. (If you need the definition, it means so small or unimportant or of so little consequence as to warrant little or no attention)
But to be fair, let's look at mine because I don't want you to think I'm above scrutiny:

I'm an amateur and I know it. Mr. Kuvshinov is not, and I'm a fan of his work and have been for a few years. But since you want to talk to me like I should acknowledge you as some kind of authority, I'll end my argument with this. This is something I do because it gives me enjoyment and I like my favorite artists which has nothing to do with facts --they are my opinions. You started off by talking down to me like your opinions of his work are facts, which means you are just a hater who's out of their depth when it comes to debate and professional artwork. If you had posted your opinion separate from mine, I wouldn't have said a word but you replied to me in a very condescending way and now here you are getting schooled by this old man who is so unfair because he uses facts and logic and facts. You're bush league and you are jealous because this person isn't. I'm not going to say anymore because I feel I've made my point so feel free to tirade all you like. Here endeth the lesson.

Oh don't worry, I will, for the benefit of onlookers, coward.
For the third time, I am not asking you to acknowledge me as an authority, I am asking you to STOP taking Ilya's undeserved success as a proof of talent. Popularity =/= talent.
Authority has nothing to do with this argument, you are the one who brought it up by demanding that I show my credentials. I asked you yours in jest, to make you understand that "authority" and "expertise" were irrelevant.
I would be willing to acknowledge your opinions as valid, if they were ACCURATE, SENSIBLE and RELEVANT, as opinions ought to be. Every single time you try to make a point, it's either based on falsehoods, or on faulty logic.
For instance:
"Dude you have 0 Favorites! So tell me again how I don't know what I'm talking about."
GLADLY. You do not know what an artist's "favorites" are.
I will explain: An artist's favorites are NOT the people who prefer him, they are the drawings HE prefers. THE MOST POPULAR ARTIST ON THE WEBSITE COULD HAVE ZERO FAVS.
And yet you somehow believe that if an artist has many favorites, that means he's popular.
It's like trying to prove that the UK is a humid country by bringing up Japan's birth rates, utterly absurd.
Now, for another fallacy
"His popularity as an artist is easily provable."
Are you implying that I denied his popularity? I ALREADY SAID THAT HE IS POPULAR.
Are you implying that his popularity magically prevents his art from being mediocre or magically makes this design "a new look" for him?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument…
SURELY nobody who's popular has ever been bad. SURELY everyone who gets a job does so because he deserved it. That was sarcasm.
And another fallacy:
"You're bush league and you are jealous because this person isn't. "
Quite possibly. That still is not an argument. My jealousy will never magically improve the quality of Ilya's work.
And now more bullshit:
"I like my favorite artists which has nothing to do with facts --they are my opinions."
Except you didn't just state opinions that concern your tastes.
You also stated opinions that concern facts. And when you do so, they better be accurate.
You do not get to choose which ones of your statements concern your feelings and which ones concern matters of fact. The language you use does. Words have meaning.
When you say "I think that 2+2=4" then it means that you believe something that's factually true.
When you say "I think that this design is a new look" then it means that you believe something that's factually false.
"You started off by talking down to me like your opinions of his work are facts"
No, like they MATCH the facts. An opinion is a belief. Beliefs can be accurate. Yours are not.
Either you do not understand the language you are using, or you are an uneducated idiot. If you are as old as you claim to be then you're probably senile as well. I wouldn't even go as far as to say that you're trying to mislead me with clumsy sophistry, as you sound like you believe your own bullshit. Hell, you might actually believe that I don't know the meaning of "negligible", it's probably a big fucking word for someone who genuinely believes that popular = good.
Take my posts as an opportunity to educate yourself past the kindergarten level. Not because they come from me, but because at your level, anything can be educational.

I look at VKontakte comments about the second trailer, which are mostly negative, and I feel ashamed of such people. Indeed, in addition to CGI, there is also a story. And despite the CGI, Motoko is still just as beautiful and looks perfect.
Some even call her too young in this style. But I still like it, and in this style Motoko reminds me even more of Leeloo from “The Fifth Element” (we admit, in essence, both of these heroines are similar). And it’s nice for me.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Not all comments should be positive just for the sake of it. I have nothing against designs and static images. Motoko is pretty cute. But the animation looks horrible. Its like watching very bad cutscene you can't skip. Let people hate what they want to hate, they have every right to do so.

Some of those dipshits and fuckwads took their hate out on Ilya last time.

Weeeell, I can't and not going to argue on that.
Ilya did nothing wrong. His job was to create character designs- and they look great.

How is Ilya the "wrong people" to take your hate out on? If anything he can be thankful that the animation is even worse than his design, or else he'd be getting even more flak.

That does look interesting. I do like the character designs, certainly they are different from Oishii's movie and the SAC series, which were different to Shirow's, but that's to be expected.
The presence of the Tachicoma reinforces context with the SAC episodes, which is definitely something to look forward to; although GitS canon seems a little fragmented.
Looking forward to seeing this though, when it gets subbed.
