Ghost In The Shell, one of the most legendary anime franchises of all time, is getting a new animated series on Netflix and the final trailer that was recently released for Ghost In The Shell SAC_2045 hasn't just given us a brand new look at the upcoming episodes, but a release date as well! The new computer generated animation anime will follow Major Kusanagi as she and her fellow officers impart on a new adventure through a technologically advanced world where the line between humanity and robotics is a blurry one.

Ghost In The Shell SAC_2045 will be debuting on Netflix on April 23rd of this year, releasing a twelve episode block to start, with another block of episodes being released at a later, yet unconfirmed date. The Stand Alone Complex series has had a number of different interpretations over the years, beginning in 2002 and being run by Production IG since its inception.
