m-my feels.....her music was so pretty ;n;
I'm really sad over this. GITS is one of my all time favorite anime/manga series. I fell in love with the movie and manga back in the 90s and never let go. Also my older daughter and I bonded over the SAC anime. My daughter when for years saying she wanted to grow into the Major and even thought (by kid logic) that somehow the show writers had seen the future and that the show itself was the story of her personal future. Going so far as to beg us to colour and style her hair to match the main character.

In short this series is very important to us, especially the music. Origa's music made the show all the better and more so was alone excellent music. Her voice carried the spiritual and futuristic blend that carried the show, but also stood out. Something that you could throw on the stereo and let carry the mood of the house. Even now my little girl asks me to play "Major music" but asking her about it, its not because the music leads her to one of her favorite shows. If you ask her she will say, "Because its pretty and fun". No greater words could be said.
