I’m already losing my mind. 🤯 Section 9 is babysitting a "suspect" who feels like a total plant while the real hacker is playing 4D chess with the police chief's brain. The tension at that speech? Insane. This show is making me want to air-gap my own head.

Tachikoma rampage total wtf !! Why do their eyes flash red override?? Are tanks turning traitors or getting hacked by dreams?? Major syncs minds trippy, but will AI rebellion spread??

This one leans deeper into cyberbrain vulnerability, building unease through concept rather than action. The slower rhythm works because the implications hit harder than any fight. Strong if you enjoy philosophical tension. 🧩
