  • Deep into the twenty-first century, the line between man and machine has been inexorably blurred as humans rely on the enhancement of mechanical implants and robots are upgraded with human tissue. In this rapidly converging landscape, cyborg superagent Major Motoko Kusanagi is charged to track down the craftiest and most dangerous terrorists and cybercriminals, including "ghost hackers" who are capable of exploiting the human/machine interface and reprogramming humans to become puppets to carry out the hackers' criminal ends. When Major Kusanagi tracks the cybertrail of one such master hacker, the Puppeteer, her quest leads her into a world beyond information and technology where the very nature of consciousness and the human soul are turned upside down.

The first 58 pages are color. After that it's all b/w. I assume it will just display the color pages as grayscale.

The Ghost in the Shell: The Human Algorithm 1

"...his brand-new chapter fills in the gaps between The Ghost in the Shell: Human-Error Processor and Man-Machine Interface manga with a tense cyberpunk thriller written by Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex script writer Junichi Fujisaku."

Nab this one while you're at it. Also 99 cents.

Before anyone starts asking, No, this version DOES NOT include the sexually explicit pages from the original pressing.
Still a good deal!

They were removed from the US trade paperbacks in the late 2000s. You can find the pages online if you search.

It's a single page completely out-of-context sex scene, and the author himself chose to remove it. I also am staunchly against censorship but this isn't quite the same thing. If I'm being completely honest, the book is better without it, and I say that as one of the world's biggest perverts.
