This week on SAGA Sara and Garrison discuss the Character Psychology of Ghost in the Shell. This film was released in 1995 and is about a futuristic world where man and robot are intertwined. Is reality just perception? What does it mean to be alive? We discuss AI and future dilemmas. 

Is animation your thing? Do you love anime and youtube series? Do you love learning about new artists or artists who've you just never heard of? We're here for you. We laugh we cry and we learn a thing or two. Join us at SAGA this week as we discuss Ghost in the Shell - Character Psychology. 

Love,

Team SAGA
