As for Appleseed, the plot is iffy (as is every Shirow plot adapted to movie, as his plot and story is incredibly dense and detailed and suffers from the condensing required to screen), but the action sequences are freakin' nuts.
The GITS:SAC series are killer; with a complicated story arc and some stand alone eps that cover a lot of great issues, such as the man-machine interface, what it is to be human, and moral/ethical issues with brain hacking and such.
