Excerpt: This is a list of episodes from the second anime series of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (2004-2005), known as Ghost in the Shell: S.A.C. 2nd GIG. Each episode has both a title and a subtitle. Unlike in the first series, the second series has three designations denoting the type of episode: individual (IN), dividual (DI) and dual (DU). IN episodes tie in with the Individual Eleven storyline; DI episodes are stand-alone episodes not strongly tied with the other storylines; and DU episodes tie in with the Cabinet Intelligence Service & Goda story-line (though the two main storylines inter-relate). There are 11 individual, 11 dividual and 4 dual episodes. In the United States the TV Parental Guidelines system rated the episodes from TV-14 to TV-MA. Unlike The Laughing Man, which stuck to the storyline of the TV series, Individual Eleven has gone through a bold editing phase. The story is recast and the relationship between Kuze and Motoko is even more highlighted than in the TV series. In the year 2030, six months have passed since the resolution of the Laughing Man Incident. About 3 million refugees live in Japan, invited in to fill the labor shortage. However, the emergent presence of the refugees has intensified their confrontation with the "Individualists", who called for national isolation. The altercations have led to increased incidences of terrorist attacks. Under these circumstances, a terrorist group called the Individual Eleven carries out a suicide attack. However, there is a greater scheme behind their action. When Section 9 discovers this they attempt to nail down the mastermind of the incident. Meanwhile, Kuze, a surviving member of the Individual Eleven, becomes a charismatic leader of the refugees and intensifies the confrontation against the government. Motoko starts feeling a strange sense of fate connecting her with Kuze. English Airdates
