Yayoi Ogawa: Tramps Like Us Volume 14 (2008, TokyoPop)

Much closer to the first GiTS than the abysmal second one, nice technical drawings, interesting futuristic concepts. Almost no Major here, it's all Batou, Togusa and the rest of the crew battling through a few peripheral cases of similar style but smaller scope than the original story.
