| 1 | * LicensedGame: Has a few, notably ''VideoGame/GhostInTheShell'' for the [=PS1=] being the first. |
| 2 | * KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The [=PS1=] game, despite its well-known positive reception, has never been re-released in any form, not even on the [=PlayStation=] Network. |
| 3 | ** The artbook of the [=PS1=] game is also pretty hard to come by and will cost you a pretty penny if you do manage to find it for sale online. |
| 4 | * OrphanedReference: All the English-language releases {{Bowdlerized}} the scene in the manga where Motoko has cybersex with two female friends, but retained Creator/ShirowMasamune's endnote explanation of it despite having reduced it to a single panel of them frolicking on a boat in swimsuits. |
| 5 | * TheOtherDarrin: The [=PS1=] video game replaced everyone on the Japanese side of things, most notably with Creator/HiromiTsuru replacing Creator/AtsukoTanaka as Motoko herself. Bizarrely, Shinji Ogawa, who appeared in the first movie as a foreign minister, replaced Creator/AkioOtsuka as Batou. Soichi Ito replaced Tamio Oki as Aramaki, Creator/HirotakaSuzuoki replaced Creator/KoichiYamadera as Togusa, and finally, Creator/KiyoshiKobayashi replaced Yutaka Nakano as Ishikawa. Mostly averted with the English version, which kept most of the original movie's cast, the only exception being Ishikawa, whose original actor, Michael Sorich, was replaced by the late Creator/BobPapenbrook. |
| 6 | * TechnologyMarchesOn: While most of the original manga has aged surprisingly well, there are a few bits beside the Soviet Union still existing that remind you this was made in the late 80s/early 90s. The Etorufu storyline features records of illegal real estate deals being stored on half a dozen big ol' CD ROM disks; non-wireless connections are made using thick, industrial-looking cables – though this gives the work a nice tangible quality – and a lot of the computer equipment is big, boxy and covered in dials, switches, and oscillographic displays. |
