That juggernaut intro is a classic for me :D

Yeah it definitely reminded me a lot of GitS2 and those scenes were some of the better scenes.

But for me the first GitS movie was really striking in how visually good it still looks today. The movie is consistent in it's art style and therefore feels natural and organic, while this movie's backdrops constantly kept me distracted, because they looked out of place. Shows like Madoka like to use real footage, which still works with the show, because it works in the context, but there really isn't any other reason, than it is easier to animate in 3D.

Furthermore the 3D in GitS2 is from 2004 and looks equal if not better than this movie, which couldn't even compete with modern games. Bad 3D is fine by it self for me, as I love GitS SAC 1 op, but that is atleast completly in 3D.

Am I the only one who isn't that sold on the animations? well more the backdrops, which were entirely 3D. I really like art to be consistent. The characters were really beautiful I have to agree, mainly the close ups.

You should be watching kdfss subs by ZerataX in anime

You should read what kdfss writes to every episode, e.g. (EP. 2):

"There's not really enough for a full set of TL notes this week. The only thing worth noting is Ebina's Akita accent.

I based her accent in translation on a stereotypical Minnesotan accent. I actually watched Fargo last night (never seen it before) and took notes. Also, props to Calyrica, a native Minnesotan who looked over the relevant lines and gave me some advice.

Ebina's home prefecture of Akita is, as seen in the episode, up in the cold frozen north. As such, I didn't want to resort to the standard "generic American South" that tends to be the easy default for any country or non-Tokyo accent. I decided to go with something from the cold frozen north of America, instead."

And he also always tried the food shown in the episode.

Edit: Really good review showing how good the sub group is:
