'''Ghost in the Shell''' is a [[wp:Ghost in the Shell|cyberpunk franchise]] which started in the 1980s with [[wp:Ghost_in_the_Shell_(manga) |a manga series]] by Masamune Shirow. It became the inspiration for [[Oni]] when [[Credits|Brent Pease]] saw [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113568/ the movie adaptation] in a theater in 1995 or 1996. Two of the primary themes of the movie are the feeling of loss of identity due to total cyborgization of the body and the untrustworthiness of one's memories due to the potential for cyberbrain hacking. | '''Ghost in the Shell''' is a [[wp:Ghost in the Shell|cyberpunk franchise]] which started in the 1980s with [[wp:Ghost_in_the_Shell_(manga)|a manga series]] by Masamune Shirow.

Oni's main character Konoko was originally a cyborg in the early development of the game. She also had altered memories in [[Oni/Early Story|this early story]], and since the title "Oni" was considered temporary at the time, a final title of "[[wikt:mnemonic#Adjective|Mnemonic]] Shadow" was considered for the game. Eventually the working title became the permanent title, and meanwhile the story was rewritten, turning Konoko into an organically-augmented person instead of a cyborg. The notion of altered memories was removed from the plot as well. | Oni's main character Konoko was originally a cyborg in the early development of the game.
