GHOST IN THE SHELL (1995) returns in a 4K Remastered version for its 30th anniversary—playing across Japan for two weeks from Friday, October 31, 2025. Organized by Filmarks, the rollout spans 84 theaters at launch (with more to be added), at a flat ¥1,600. Some venues begin on Nov 1 or Nov 7, and while the source is 4K, certain screens may project in 2K.
Two weeks only: dates, windows, and rollout at a glance
The revival opens on Oct 31 (Fri) for a two-week window. Select theaters will start on Nov 1 or Nov 7. New venues may be added—check listings if your city isn’t up yet.
Ticket basics: flat ¥1,600 and theater-direct sales
All tickets are ¥1,600 each. Standard discount days and other reductions don’t apply. Premium seating may vary by theater. Tickets are sold directly by participating cinemas.
Projection notes: chasing 4K vs. 2K at your local screen
The remaster is supplied in 4K, but projection may be 2K depending on each auditorium’s system. If you want the highest fidelity, confirm the screen’s specs before purchase.
Major cities and flagship venues to target first
Tokyo (Shinjuku Piccadilly, Ikebukuro HUMAX, 109 Kiba, AQUA CITY Odaiba), Osaka (Namba Parks Cinema, Teatre Umeda), Kanagawa (CINECITTA, 109 Kawasaki), Aichi (Midland Square Cinema, 109 Nagoya), Hokkaido (Sapporo Cinema Frontier), Fukuoka (United Cinemas Canal City 13) and more nationwide. Schedules and start dates can vary by theater.
Why this 30th-anniversary run matters now
Mamoru Oshii’s cyberpunk landmark still shapes sci-fi’s look and ideas worldwide—on big screens and beyond. For newcomers, this is the definitive way to meet Section 9 and the Puppet Master; for veterans, it’s a rare chance to re-experience its philosophy and craft at theatrical scale.
Stay current: added theaters, showtimes, and attendee perks
Filmarks will announce newly added theaters and details on the original attendee perk (TBA). Follow the official updates and check your local cinema’s page for daily showtimes.
Pick your theater, confirm specs, and book early
Choose a nearby venue, verify whether it’s projecting in 4K or 2K, and secure your ¥1,600 ticket directly from the theater. Limited two-week window—plan ahead to lock in your preferred time and seat.
