Nene Nanakorobi, a full-body cyborg girl, is moving to Cenancle Island to live with her aunt. While on the cruise heading to the island, she meets the eccentric scientist Uzal Delilah, and her long-suffering "assistant" Clarion, another full-body cyborg. When terrorists attack the island however, Nene finds herself helping Uzal "defuse" the situation, thanks to being given access to the Pandora device housed in Clarion's body.At the end of all this, Nene finds herself as Clarion's new "owner"... And she hasn't even managed to find her aunt's home yet!Illustrated by Koshi Rikudo, Pandora in the Crimson Shell: Ghost Urn (紅殻�パンドラ / Koukaku no Pandora) is a cyberpunk action comedy manga based on an unused concept of Masamune Shirow (designs of which would eventually be re-used in Ghost in the Shell: Arise). It was serialized in Kadokawa Shoten's Newtype Ace magazine, before being moved to Niconico Ace, and is licensed in English by Seven Seas Entertainment.An anime adaptation by Studio Gokumi was first shown as a movie in theaters on December 2015, before being formally aired during the winter 2016 anime season. The anime formally adapts seven and a half volumes (nearly all published material by that point in time) of the manga.

Instant Expert: As far as the rare owners of full-body prosthesis, Nene is one of these. As an adepter, she's able to make use of her cyborg body far better than it should be possible. Remember, unlike Ghost in the Shell, full-body cyborgs are still rare, and there are actual cases where the patient's mind simply rejects the mechanical body it was given. A feature of the Pandora Device. Whenever Nene uploads one of the Elpis series commands from Clarion, she instantly gains the ability if not the actual mental knowledge related to a specific skill. See how her body unconsciously expertly loads and aims the handgun she was given despite her saying at the same time that she had no idea how to do so.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Pandora in the Crimson Shell: Ghost Urn (Manga) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The access port to the Pandora Device is located close to Clarion's crotch, and Nene can only gain the information she needs through her finger. This means that, whenever Nene needs to use the Pandora Device, to other people it looks like she's fingering Clarion (Clarion also starts to blush and moan when Nene is using the device). Takumi trying to touch Clarion's ears against her will, and Clarion's reaction to it, look a lot like attempted rape. This is why Nene got mad and deleted the virtual environment Takumi was running. The third leg of the CNU looks very phallic and even starts to point upwards when Nene shows it her panties as demanded like an erect penis. "Something is ... Entering me!" The automatic maintenance system for Clarion, especially the many manipulators entering her Pandora device port (which is where her crotch would be), remind very much of tentacle porn (in the manga, they even pixelated a panel that would've shown it), an association Nene seemed to have made, as well.

Shout-Out Theme Naming
 Pandora in the Crimson Shell: Ghost Urn (Manga) / int_1b38f6b7
comment
There's a Shout-Out Theme Naming trend of side characters being named after movie directors: Captain Robert Altman of the Cenancle Defense Force, Amy Gilliam (after Terry Gilliam's first daughter), and her cat Lean. Amy says in Vol. 4 of the manga that the three boys who hang out with her are named David, Steven, and James. Vol. 6 confirms that David's last name is Lynch and shows some other names on Amy's contact list: Dan O'Bannon, Darren Aronofsky, David Paul Cronenberg, and David Wark Griffith.

Wave-Motion Gun: What BUER was equipped with. It should tell you a lot about who Uzal really is when what's supposed to be an earth boring machine is equipped with a battleship-grade plasma cannon. A smaller version is introduced later on, the Yatsukahagi, which is mounted on the Shinokaomi. It gets used to blast through one of the bulkheads in Uzal's base.

comment
Mythology Gag: The companies that Nene visits in Episode 4 all originated from Ghost in the Shell (in particular, Serano Genomics was the Big Bad in the first season of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex.) Takumi tries to see if Nene can control a six-armed prototype Hecatonchires body, but it proves to be too difficult for her. The main antagonist, Colonel Kurtz, is a "security adviser" from the American Empire, which originated from Appleseed and also made its presence known in Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex's first and second seasons. When Nene pretends to be an android to infiltrate Kurtz's base, she gives her name as "Hanako Dosukoi", which is the alias Excel always uses whenever she disguises herself.

comment
Elephant in the Living Room: Nene is so smitten with Clarion that she exhibits an unfortunate lack of curiosity about the situation she's currently in — Uzal told Nene that Clarion is "the same as you," leading Nene to assume that Clarion is another full-body cyborg. But Clarion doesn't need to sleep, always obeys Uzal's directives, and doesn't seem to know much about how regular humans live, Takumi only ever refers to her as "Uzal's puppet", Dr. Toto thinks there's something strange about her, and there's an Evil Twin of her working for Poseidon. It makes us question whether Clarion is actually a highly advanced android — she may have the same kind of prosthetic body as Nene, but her brain could be an AI instead of being originally human. It probably wouldn't matter much to Nene if this were the case, since she treats all robots like people anyway. Uzal was running a False Flag Operation so that her dirty work could be blamed on terrorist attacks. Why does Takumi look like a little girl?

Non-Indicative Name: The "optical camo" mode that Nene gains whenever she uses the Pandora Device doesn't actually act like the Chameleon Camouflage, the term is usually associated with in other Masamune Shirow series. Instead, it's more of a hologram layered over her normal outfit. There's actual Chameleon Camouflage in-series however, but it's instead called "stealth mode", like when used on the Gertsecommas Takumi uses to watch over Nene.

Bland-Name Product: Nene's favorite video game is "MonBasu for the original DSD." The game is clearly intended to be Monster Hunter (translators of Pandora call it "Monster Bash", but perhaps "Monster Buster" would have been better), and the platform parodies both the Nintendo DS and the Sony PSP. Robot thieves were shown to steal a robot dog made by "Pony".

A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Over the course of their little rebellion, Uzal's subordinates activate BUER, an experimental machine, in the hope of it helping them out. The problem is, because the activation code they used was a dummy left by Uzal because something like this might happen, it instead goes berserk, and starts indiscriminately attacking everything in Cenancle Island. The first thing Nene and Clarion have to do is to try and find a way to shut it down.

Fantastic Racism: Some people hate people cyborgs, and some even regard them as "things" and robots (e.g. how Mr. Chicken's little brother Mr. Fried was bullied as a child after he got cyborg arms, how Takumi gets flak for having a cyberbrain, or how Altman and others hide their cyberbrain port when they don't need them).

Big Brother Instinct
 Pandora in the Crimson Shell: Ghost Urn (Manga) / int_69681e01
comment
Big Brother Instinct: The robot thief "Mr. Chicken" is very protective of his younger brother "Mr. Fried": When Clarion cut off Fried's cyborg hand for touching her ears, Chicken got extremely angry and ordered his brother and his other subordinates to destroy her, instead of seizing her undamaged as attempted earlier (he thought that Nene and Clarion were two very sophisticated and extremely expensive robots; He was thus ready to pass on a very lucrative opportunity as a thief just to take revenge for his brother's cyborg hand). He also pleaded to Clarion to not hurt his brother after Nene caught them later. It is revealed in later chapters that he got into robot theft to pay for better cyborg arms for his little brother, and even turned on his escape helper from jail after she said that cyborgs are nothing but "things," because of his little brother having been bullied that way in his childhood.

comment
Meaningful Name: The incident with Pandora's Box in Classical Mythology tends to make people forget that Pandora originally meant "all-gifted". Elpis is ancient Greek for "hope", the last thing remaining in Pandora's Box. Nene's last name, "Nanakorobi" can be read as "falling seven times" alluding to the proverb, "Fall down seven times, get up eight."

Nene is Flanderized into being this towards Clarion in the "Pandoradio" segments of the end credits. Cenancle is actually a fairly reasonable science fiction setting. The strangest parts of the story's premise — Clarion, the Pandora Device, BUER and the cosplay minion squad — can all be chalked up to Uzal being a pervert.

Only Known by Their Nickname: The "Chicken brothers", the boss of a robot thief gang and his little brother and subordinate, are only known by their nicknames "Mr. Chicken" and "Mr. Fried", which were chosen to fit the chicken theme of their gang (Mr. Chicken also built a flying robot that looks like a chicken and "hatches" egg-shaped flash bang grenades). According to their back story, the names " Takumi", " Sahar Schehera", " Delilah," and implicitly " Uzal" were thought up by Uzal because their names, mere numbers, were boring to her. It is not stated whether they had any "real" names before being given numbers, or whether Takumi's family name, Korobase, is fake, too.

Fun with Acronyms: It's explained in the manga and the show's website that BUER stands for "Base of Unearth Extra Resources". (For the origin of BUER's name, see Shout-Out below.)

Shout-Out
 Pandora in the Crimson Shell: Ghost Urn (Manga) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: BUER's Central Nervous Unit is based on the Goetic demon Buer, who is usually depicted with five goat legs and the head of a lion. His boring machine body is a giant black eyeball that resembles the "Voglersphere" from the Giant Robo OVA. Masamune Shirow's fondness for Classical Mythology continues to be evident here: there's the symbolism associated with Pandora's box, the cruise ship that takes Nene to Cenancle is called the Epimetheus, districts in Cenancle are named Area Vulcan, Area Mercury, and Area Charon, and Vli——'s rival TV personality is named Proserpina. Cenancle is a volcanic island, and the crater bay in its center is called Ennosigaios (Earth Shaker, an epithet of Poseidon.) Clarion is often drawn as a cat-shaped silhouette, which looks like a white version of Chiyo's dad. The eyecatch of the series parodies the opening of Sazae-san. Takumi's hair decoration looks suspiciously like the logo of Microsoft Windows. Colonel Ian Kurtz may be a reference to Colonel Walter Kurtz. There's a Shout-Out Theme Naming trend of side characters being named after movie directors: Captain Robert Altman of the Cenancle Defense Force, Amy Gilliam (after Terry Gilliam's first daughter), and her cat Lean. Amy says in Vol. 4 of the manga that the three boys who hang out with her are named David, Steven, and James. Vol. 6 confirms that David's last name is Lynch and shows some other names on Amy's contact list: Dan O'Bannon, Darren Aronofsky, David Paul Cronenberg, and David Wark Griffith. When BUER's secret stash is inadvertently revealed to the whole world by Kurtz, the person shown representing the Germans browsing the net at that point is U-511 from KanColle. The jail the employees of Uzal are transferred to is called Sisyphus Correctional Facility (most likely because the Sisyphus from myth was sentenced to an endless and pointless task as punishment). The Gertsecommas look as if they were also inspired by the gun turret robots in Portal. Being stuck in a garbage disposal unit in the enemies base and trying to hack the base's computer system to avoid being killed in the garbage disposal process? That's what happened to Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Chewbacca, and Leia in A New Hope, too! Fear resembles Sunny Wong from R.O.D the TV (their appearance and that both are powerful minions of the antagonist and were created rather than born). The BUER avatar starts talking about a Cruel Maiden Angel's Thesis after Nene frees him from the safe Clarion put him in. In the manga, during "Bunny's" explanation about the Imperial American garbage incinerator, we see a Vault Boy! The Vault Boy is seen later again in a commercial for a cola brand. Colonel Kurtz at some point started to rant how he is a "god of the new world" trying to create an utopia by rather bloody means, resembling Light Yagami to a frightening degree. Vli— thinks she'll undergo some kinda transformation and be something like Dio Brando, a super saiyan, or Madoka after her apotheosis.

Child Soldiers: Uzal recruits Nene into fighting against various threats and is surprised that she had no combat training in school (the latter adding to the Crapsaccharine World vibe of the setting as it implies that combat training is a normal occurrence in schools, even though it's also implied to be voluntary, at least).

Brain/Computer Interface: The plug-in mental interfaces make their return here from Ghost in the Shell. However, much like full-body prosthesis and cyber-brains, it's a new enough technology that early adopters like Nene's aunt still can't even dream of doing the tricks Major Kusanagi is able to get away with (like having a real-time conversation while participating in a virtual-reality online chat at the same time). Demonstrated in Episode 3, where Nene finds Takumi's body catatonic when she's plugged in and "working".

The automatic maintenance system for Clarion, especially the many manipulators entering her Pandora device port (which is where her crotch would be), remind very much of tentacle porn (in the manga, they even pixelated a panel that would've shown it), an association Nene seemed to have made, as well.

Expy: Vli—— looks very much like Excel from Excel♡Saga — they're both hyperactive, incompetent Determinators with blonde hair, green eyes, a single cute little fang, and a knack for surviving seemingly lethal pratfalls. The Bureau Chief to whom she is blindly devoted looks suspiciously like Il Palazzo. Her assistants, Camera and Mic, are patterned on Elgala and Hyatt, to the extent that the latter is revealed to have the family name "Watanabe," and to have experienced a sickly phase growing up. Mince makes a cameo too. Chairman Janus North is a Black version of Excel♡Saga's Dr. Kabapu, and his secretary looks like Miss Momochi with glasses. Pedro, who has a prominent role in the Excel♡Saga anime, is recast here as a friendly researcher at the Cenacle robotics institute (and no longer as a Job-like tragic figure). Ashteroth and Beelzebub are dead ringers for Pio and Phiola, the titular heroes of Holy Brownie.

Uzal told Nene that Clarion is "the same as you," leading Nene to assume that Clarion is another full-body cyborg. But Clarion doesn't need to sleep, always obeys Uzal's directives, and doesn't seem to know much about how regular humans live, Takumi only ever refers to her as "Uzal's puppet", Dr. Toto thinks there's something strange about her, and there's an Evil Twin of her working for Poseidon. It makes us question whether Clarion is actually a highly advanced android — she may have the same kind of prosthetic body as Nene, but her brain could be an AI instead of being originally human. It probably wouldn't matter much to Nene if this were the case, since she treats all robots like people anyway.
