With the second installment of Ghost in the Shell: Arise having done its theatrical run, it’s gearing up for the DVD and Blu-ray release that’s slated for December 25th. The official YouTube Channel has updated with a bit of a new treat as it gives us a look at one of the songs being performed in a studio group performance that’s really neat to watch unfold. It’s a full four minute piece that definitely lets you absorb the song and instrumental aspect of it as well.
Series concept: In the year 2027, a year following the end of the non-nuclear World War IV, a bomb has gone off in Newport City, killing a major arms dealer who may have ties with the mysterious 501 Organization. Public Security official Daisuke Aramaki hires full-body cyber prosthesis user and hacker extraordinaire, Motoko Kusanagi, to investigate. On the case with her are “Sleepless Eye” Batou, who believes Kusanagi is a criminal, Niihama Prefecture Detective Togusa who is investigating a series of prostitute murders he believes are related to the incident, and Lieutenant Colonel Kurtz of the 501 Organization who also wishes to keep an eye on Kusanagi.
