The story is about a cyborg policewoman named Motoko Kusanagi in a quest to bring down a despicable enemy.
On the other hand, the "Ghost In The Shell" 1995 Animated Movie is set to make a brief run in select US cinemas on February 7th and 8th. This anime movie feature is directed by the legendary Mamoru Oshii, according to Forbes. The screenplay is based on Masamune Shirow's manga series of the same title "Ghost In The Shell."
Considering the time limit imposed on films, the anime version has skipped several essential scenes from the manga specifically that of the artificially intelligent Fuchikomas.
