Science Saru’s The Ghost in the Shell series gets a new teaser trailer

[Karlston]

The 2026 series’ teaser is all concept art that looks a lot like the original manga.

 

A new teaser trailer for Science Saru’s The Ghost in the Shell anime series has been announced on the official Ghost in the Shell website in a post spotted by Anime News Network. The post also revealed some of the staff heading up the series, which includes people who’ve worked on other shows from the animation studio, including Scott Pilgrim Takes Off and Dandadan, both of which have made their way to the US via Netflix.

 

The trailer cycles through hand-drawn storyboards and key animation reminiscent of the original manga — that’s not a big surprise after the first teaser Science Saru put out, which was itself mostly a collection of images from the manga. It’s also good news for anyone burned by the look of the 2017 live-action Scarlett Johansson-starring Ghost in the Shell movie or the CG-animated Netflix series.

The Ghost in the Shell is being directed by Moko-chan (Dandadan), with other staff including scriptwriter EnJoe Toh (Godzilla Singular Point) and character designer / animation director Shuhei Handa (Scott Pilgrim Takes Off), who illustrated the poster above. It’s due out in 2026, but the announcement doesn’t mention whether that includes a US Netflix release like some of the studio’s other work.
