Advantages: 2 good and 2 great episodes, excellent visuals, extensive selection of DVD extras, decent English-dub Disadvantages: Episodes and extras not quite as strong as in Volumes 2 & 3, a little heavy going for some tastes
for more were answered in the form of a 26-part TV series, each episode having a running-time of around 25 minutes. Question marks remained over the ease with which such a complex franchise could be broken up into bite sized episodes, and the films legendary director, Mamoru Oshii (Patlabor, Avalon) was no longer at the helm - directing reigns had been handed over to Kenji Kamiyama (Blood: The Last Vampire).

Ghostin the Shell, StandAloneComplex - Disc 1 of 7.
Episodes included.
01.SECTION 9
02.TESTATION
03.ANDROID AND I
04.INTERCEPTOR

Chronologically it comes before the second series (sounds obvious I know, but not always the case) and before the second movie.
The episodes on this disc reintroduce the cast and start to set a scene, however they do not begin the main story arch of the series yet. These are purely beginners guide episodes.
01.SECTION 9
The series starts with a whollop, literally, including fire fights, car chases, killer robots and some political intrigue. The Major and her squad are sent to rescue a minister and his aids from ...
Advantages: Contains important plot information Disadvantages: Has one very boring episode
