Review: Timeless - Arguably the best anime tv series of all time, it's a must watch for anyone who is a fan of the genre. Its compelling, philosophical stories hold up very well, especially considering this series is over ten years old at this point. Of this first series, very few episodes lag, and those that do feel like they are meant to, most notably the Tachikoma episode. It gives you a chance to take a breath between the dense, political episodes and ultimately expands the viewers understanding of what it is to be alive and aware. The animation is, for the most part, very strong for a televised anime, and the cell shaded cgi is used only for machines and set pieces, and is all but flawless. Nothing like Appleseed, of which I've never been a fan. The less important animation, mainly in between main scenes, for anime is usually farmed out to animation houses that do nothing but unimportant filler scenes, and while they are noticeable, there aren't any animes in which you won't find this. So complaining about it is all but pointless. That's just the way it is. It allows the studio to spend more on the spectacular shots and ultimately provide better action. desertcart's digital version looks and sounds great, but the subtitles can be lacking, which is surprising considering they were done by Turner, which is an American company. It's a small complaint but when the voice actors are American and the subtitle house is American, there's no excuse for mistaking clearly enunciated words, especially when logic could fill in any gaps(during one scene the subs read "back hat" rather than "back hack", which is an understandable mistake to make but considering this show has so much hacking in it, and the characters repeatedly say "back hack" during a scene with hacking, it's not outrageous to hope that the subber uses logic.) I wish they'd hire people who enjoyed the shows to subtitle them, as they would put more care into it. (This isn't the only show on desertcart to be subtitled with absolutely the wrong words - Top Gear (UK), which is in English as well, also has a lot of glaring mistakes that likely appear bc the person doing the subbing is not familiar with the vernacular used in the show.) I don't want to be too harsh, bc most people won't watch with the subs on, but having known people with hearing loss or total deafness, it can be annoying to get an incomplete picture of what's going on. All that being said, and ignoring the absurdly high price for the HD version as compared to thenHD version of 2nd Gig, this is a must own for any fans of future/cyber anime. Also, and I know this is a sore subject for some - bizarrely - the Tachikomatic Days shorts are left intact at the end of every episode, and that is a very good thing indeed. They are charming. As a side note, I, for one, find the Tachikoma story arc heartbreakingly beautiful, and hilarious, and touching, and truly wonderful. Some think they are campy and detract from the overall tone of the series, but I couldn't disagree more strongly. If anything, they're one of the most vital parts of the show. Their journey is, by the end, tear inducing. I still get choked up. I suspect that anyone reading this or searching for the digital version of this show has already seen or already owns it on disc, but I haven't touched my physical copies in months bc I watch these over and over and over digitally. I can't say enough good things about this series so I'll stop here and let you enjoy them for yourself. Review: Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Season 1 review - I've never seen the original anime movie this was based on. This series was very enjoyable the first time I watch it. I'm very happy that I purchased this anime series. The English voice actors did an incredible job adding life and emotions to the characters. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Kenji Kamiyama | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 2,043 Reviews | | Format | Blu-ray, NTSC | | Genre | Anime | | Language | English | | Number Of Discs | 4 | ## Product Details - **Contributor:** Kenji Kamiyama - **Format:** Blu-ray, NTSC - **Genre:** Anime - **Language:** English - **Number Of Discs:** 4 ## Images ![Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Season 1 [Blu-ray] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71wB6+OEwWL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Timeless *by J***K on October 15, 2015* Arguably the best anime tv series of all time, it's a must watch for anyone who is a fan of the genre.

This series was very enjoyable the first time I watch it. I'm very happy that I purchased this anime series. The English voice actors did an incredible job adding life and emotions to the characters. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's a good edition of the show. If you like the show I would get it. *by R***1 on October 18, 2020* OK, I watched this show as it was aired in the U.S. Think it aired on Toonami, off the top of my head. I have seen people write about the Japanese dialog getting cut in with the English dub. Well, when it aired (hold onto something!) the Japanese dialog cut in while the English dialog was happening. Some of the characters orientation or what have you are Japanese. I believe the Japanese dialog use was to show characters that are native Japanese speakers. If you use two languages to communicate it can be at times to slip into your native tongue. The error people are finding I believe is meant to make in a subtle way understand part of some of the character's culture. I think it is pretty cool. Also, I dont care about kipping around in episodes. I did not factor that in. I dont care. That would be up to you. Picture image. It looks good. Real good :) Im watching on a nice Sony 4k TV. The colors and shading look great to me. The CGI if you are picky looks just a tiny, tiny, bit pixelated. Still, This was made a while ago. With that understand you are watching CGI done right for it's time. Blah, blah, blah, image quality looks great. Audio - music, tanks, gun fire, radio talk. sounds solid. At 20 bucks this is a must buy for a fan. Unless they come out with some crazy great 4k edition. This will do great for now. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Season 1 [Blu-ray] - Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig [Blu-ray] - Ghost in the Shell [4k + Blu-ray + Digital] [4K UHD] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/39711866-ghost-in-the-shell-stand-alone-complex-season-1-blu](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/39711866-ghost-in-the-shell-stand-alone-complex-season-1-blu) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-06*
