Read someone saying her body was designed by a man who generally based his work off of European women; was sort of nebulous as to whether they were talking about the character that designed her parts or the original artist who created her character. Any sauce on this?
Still working on the first season of SAC so I don't have a clue, I'm just tired of seeing endless "muh whitewashing ;-;" every time I click on an article about the new live action with ScarJo.

Completely impossible, I speak as a Shirow fanoboy that if this was true I would have read about it. Source or GTFO.

That's what I was asking for, friendo.

So what if an european designed her?

Attempted, no luck. Just a bunch of angry articles about ScarJo, like I said.
>>140129805
Not a European, someone that generally based work off Europeans.

Never heard of it. In SAC the explanation given is that Kusanagi's body model was briefly popular 5 to 10 years before the series began, considered a "generic tall female body" (since Kusanagi's 168 cm tall, I think) in the Japanese consumer market. It was considered particularly forgetful and got pushed aside in favor of the next best thing. It offered custom options for hair and eye color, and Kusanagi went with the choices she'd taken as a child (purple and red).

So in SAC, there's not anything to suggest it's based on a Caucasian woman (not to mention in the series, a few witnesses identify her as an Asian woman, more even more specifically as Japanese due to recognizing the model, from appearance).

But that's just Stand Alone Complex. I don't recall the manga addressing the origin of her current body, nor the film. Perhaps Arise does.

In Arise she was born as a full cyborg, it doesn't go that much into detail other than that its fucking expensive to own a full cyber body.

That's about 10cm more than the average for Japanese women.

It's taller than the average Japanese woman (in 2030 after two World Wars) apparently.

>>140129363
Obviously not. European women look like men. Just take a good look at the Major's jaw in the manga or even the film or show.

>>140129363
Does it really matter for GitS? Major is a machine. We don't even know what gender she really is at the end.
