my brother thinks it's unlikely that people (even cyborgs)
would talk about the exterior politics in western germany or
philosophic questions about the unconscious while having
sex, but still, i'm curious to know what they're saying...

there must be a translation somewhere, no?

"Did you use WD40 this morning?"

"Why? Do I feel good?"

"Yes, a lot smoother than normal"

"Why, thank you."

"You are welcome"

"Good sex by the way"

"NO FUCKING WAY"

"way."

"well that's an ego boost"

"ahh"

"ooo"

"pass me my ciggies please"

this is the blurb written in the art book that show the
missing pages from the english version

interface capable cyborgs, who can receive information
directly into their brains, must be capable of experiences
more amusing than in reality, like the scene on the third
page shown opposite. ( I decided against the old cliche of
grappling with a monster of unknown origin, which I'd hate
drawing anyway.) However simulated sex through a data suit
feedback would require one heck of a suit and look downright
disgusting, so I decided not to even think about it. Anyway,
I'm sure deep sea adventures, space walking, and trips
around the world would all be big ticket items, too (would
RPG play a leading role?). As I wrote in the book, the more
visual the stimulus, the less meaningful cyberbrain sex
would be.... I drew an all girls orgy because I didn't want
to draw some guys butt (gad, this is getting crass), and
because I figured that connecting different sex brains
wouldn't neccesserily amplify the pleasure principle. (It
might be fun if you could control each others bodies....)
well theres a lot more to be said about this page, but
suffice to say it's a tricky peice that stilll raises
questions about "movement" in manga....
note the synchronisation between batou and kusanagi

I've got most of those images in some form or another (I
have gits 1 and 2 complete, orion, and black magic, as well
as two art books)
