More to the point, I think a lot of the issues we're discussing are directly applicable to Shadowrun.
Well, maybe not back when we were discussing the continuity of Fuchikoma and Togusa, but the issues we're currently focusing on are more than apropos. ~J |

yeah. the exclusion of the typical anime-esque conventions are probably a big part of why i like GitS so much. i mean, i like a lot of anime, but i like it for different reasons than i like GitS.

There's also the military perspective on the benefits of a semi-automatic pistol versus the drawbacks of a revolver.
The Major is the voice of military operations while Togusa represents the civilian (cop) perspective on weapons. -Siege Edit: And as the power escalation in CP:2020 demonstrated, when you have a tendency to run into full borgs or near-borgs, you want to carry firepower capable of making them take notice. |
