#105 Eiko and GITS

A long time ago (1997) a game called Ghost in the Shell was released for Sony Playstation.  Anime as whole was still relatively fresh.  I had been familiar with the original release of GITS as an OAV, and having played the demo I purchased the game.

This is what I was greeted with.


Eiko was only a year old at the time.

This would influence Eiko in a way that most people don't realize.  Eiko had to be as cool as Makoto Kusanagi.

The music from the game has been a great companion through the years, and even to this day doesn't feel dated.  I bought the cd some years ago at the Chicago Comic-con (when it was still CCC).

Eiko and GITS have a long history together, and it is really just beginning.
