SAC_2045 is too focused on its reproduction of Ghost in the Shell. This creates its essential problems: it is a lesser life-form, and it is starving to death for lack of inspiration and enough resources for its own production. It isn’t just “season 3” of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex it’s a new life-form. In this separation is the invitation to view SAC_2045 as an adaptation of an adaptation. SAC_2045 claims a new title that reduces “Stand Alone Complex” to initialism. Picking up a decade or so after the events of the series and its 2006 film Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society, it offers familiar motifs, the same essential status quo, largely the same tone, and all the same vital characters. Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 is a continuation of the anime series Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, but it is also, itself, an adaptation.
