Line 314:
* [[Let's Split Up, Gang!]]: Kusanagi's plan for {{spoiler|evacuating Section 9 headquarters and sending the team into hiding.}}
* [[Life Imitates Art]]: ''Ghost in the Shell'' has directly inspired Japanese scientists to develop actual "thermoptic camouflage" cloaking technology (that works by bending light around the wearer) and a functioning Tachikoma prototype (a 4 wheel vehicle with a segmented body that gives a visual feed to the driver through cameras.) Advances in prosthetic limb technology has also advanced significantly over the last few decades.
* [[Lighter and Softer]]: The ''Stand Alone Complex'' series, while still fairly dark, is noticeably less grim than the [[Ghost in the Shell (manga)|manga]] and the [[Ghost in the Shell (1995 film)
** The lighthearted "Tachikomatic Days" shorts at the end of each episode are much lighter in tone than the rest of the series and indeed the rest of the franchise. They're meant as humour to lighten the mood of the viewers after watching the episode.
* [[Littlest Cancer Patient]]: The girl from ''MISSING HEARTS'' who recently had a heart transplant. She seems to exist mainly so Motoko can bring up her [[Dark and Troubled Past]] and also [[Pet the Dog]] a little.
Line 404:
* [[Ramming Always Works]]: In ''BARRAGE'', the Tachikomas try to take out the Armed Suit threatening Batou by slamming into it with their bodies. {{spoiler|And it works when the one with an explosive shell does it.}}
* [[Rapid Aging]]: Eka Turkuro. It's implied to be caused by the stress of her long captivity, although it's never really explained how it happened.
* [[Rebellious Prisoner]]: Tthis makes for an entire episode of [[Cool Old Guy|Aramaki]] getting a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]]. Despite being captured, not only does he not cooperate, when the guys who captured him wind up expendables to another party, Aramaki takes command of his own captors and outsmarts everyone, to the point his supposed captors wonder how their prisoner became their boss.
* [[Recruiting the Criminal]]: Motoko and Aramaki try, albeit unsuccessfully, to recruit The Laughing Man in the finale of Season 1.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: The security cyborg from ''PORTRAITZ'' who nearly throttles Togusa.
