Before Blade Runner had the internet talking, Ghost in the Shell already drew the blueprint for how the future should look. Science SARU just picked the pen back up.
## What dropped Following its July 7 premiere, the new Ghost in the Shell revealed its fourth key visual and sixth trailer, plus a new "Episode Visual" project — a fresh poster for every single episode. The new key art comes from character designer Shuhei Handa, and the Episode 1 visual was built by Charles Chung of maxilla, with an end card by Yoji Shinkawa, the artist behind Metal Gear and Death Stranding. Maaya Sakamoto voices Major Motoko Kusanagi this time.
## Why it hits The DNA here is pure street. Trench coats, techwear, chrome, neon on wet asphalt — the visual language cyberpunk fashion still bites off in 2026 traces back to this franchise. Title logo by Hajime Sorayama, the chrome-goddess artist who's done work for Dior and The Weeknd. That's not a coincidence; that's the culture and the couture running through the same wires.
## The read For a sneakers-and-hip-hop crowd, Ghost in the Shell is the anime that already lives in your moodboard. Techwear brands, album covers, music videos — they've all pulled from this well. Science SARU handing every episode its own poster is basically dropping a lookbook weekly.
## The move It's streaming globally on Prime Video. Watch the trailer, then chase down the Episode Visuals — Shinkawa and Sorayama on the same project is a collector's moment.
