Wait for the Hollywood version. Then we'll put white Europeans back in the movie. It's God's plan so hang in there buddy.

lack of decent caucasian actors in asia so you end up with poo poo like this

it's funny that the guy in the cartoon is a huge guy that looks like he's screaming but the voice actor sounds like they used the wispiest white american accountant they could find and told him to make snarky jibes.

it looks like a bad deviant art fanart. the coloring among other things is godawful

i'm pretty sure that batou is drawn basically the same as some american soldiers in the episode where they meet the sniper guy

so, i always thought he was an american

Thanks for this, I'm getting from some people that Japan doesn't care about this and it'll be a laugh to throw this back into their faces.

I hadn't thought about her, but they mentioned Ryoko Yonekura and holy poo poo, does she look like she could be the Major. It's also funny that some of them are okay with casting a Caucasian lead but just not ScarJo. Some of them want Natalie Dormier or Sigourney Weaver (?) for Kusanagi.

Also, I love they call Kusanagi "Miss Gorilla". I totally forgot that nickname.

Sorry, even Japan thinks that Batou should be Steven Seagal.

Has it been said yet if this film is a straight adaptation set in Japan or if the whole thing's being reworked/transported to the US, ala The Seven Samurai to The Magnificent Seven? (Or, for an example in the opposite direction, the recent Japanese version of Unforgiven by Ken Watanabe)

If the film is actually still set entirely in Japan with Japanese characters everywhere then sure, it's hella dumb and awkward but if it's just a US-based version of a Japanese story with cyborgs running around Future Chicago or whatever, is it really such a big deal?

No, because doing a localization and setting it in Future Chicago and calling the Major "Primrose Excalibur" would actually be the smart thing. It's being set in Japan, but apparently National Public Safety Agency sounds lame to American ears, so they're changing it to that Section 9 is a corporate espionage group inside Hanka Robotics, the world's leader in cybernetic prosthesis. So, they've gone from barely-secret spy hunters on the level of James Bond to being Adam Jensen in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
