A high school friend of mine, originally from Japan, had access to plenty of stuff that you couldn't find at the local Best Buy or Suncoast, although I'm pretty sure that Ghost in the Shell was one of the first anime titles I bought on VHS at a "regular" store. I'm probably not alone in admitting that films like Ghost in the Shell are what drew me to anime's domestic expansion during the mid-1990s, especially in the wake of earlier milestones like Akira, The Wings of Honneamise, Grave of the Fireflies, and My Neighbor Totoro, just to name a few. Pioneering the use of "digitally generated animation", Ghost in the Shell ranks among the very best in the genre regardless of era needless to say, it's held up extremely well during the last 19 years and will most likely continue to engage and entertain fans of sci-fi for decades to come. Its impact ran deep in popular sci-fi and action films during the next decade.most notably The Matrix, as the Wachowski brothers were reportedly huge fans of Ghost in the Shell's striking blend of style and substance. Based on the manga series by Masamune Shirow, director Mamoru Oshii's Ghost in the Shell (1995) stands tall as one of the most popular and influential animated imports of the last 20 years.
