> The second movie is much darker and more cerebral It's one of the most underrated animated movies there is I think. There's a limited edition I was lucky to grab in a pretty random store in Tokyo years ago that comes with two books, one has a lot of the storyboards and the other contains interviews with Oshii and he considered it the most important movie he made for its exploration of post WW 2 Japan. And although GitS is great I think it's a bit of a shame that it overshadows Patlabor so much, in particular internationally.
