OMG this is a hard one.Common sense would say that Revy is at a disadvantage since the Major is made of metal and there for a little more bullet proof then your average merc. However seeing as Revy held her own against Roberta who is the closest thing to a terminator I have seen I'm gonna have to say Revy.

Neither, Balalaika would kill them both if they were all enemies.

Two hands Revy wins my vote.....

What?!? Major ftw.

The Major hands down.

Major Kusanagi.

Major, no contest. Revy is cool though...but really.

Major. She's got camo and is a freak'n robot who can fall 30 stories and be ok, as well as a rediculous accuracy and one arm 50 cal. sniper action... it's a little bit of a one sided fight

Major there is no other option

The Major

Even if Motoko was completely human, considering almost all of Levy's gunfights involve her standing/sitting in one place (and then moving to another stationary position, repeat ad infinitum) taking her time to aim at bad guys who are still trying whether they should shoot or... die... Motoko wins! :P

This is more difficult then when I had to choose between the last choco taco and my first born. Oh Well lil timmy will grow up under a better house anyhow.

I'm going to loose horribly on this one but I'm going to have to go with Revy cause she's pissier than the major and she doesn't need prosthetics to kick ass.

Bleh, sorry, "still trying to DECIDE whether..." is what I meant.

Me fail English? That's unpossible! ;P

Revy!

Revy comes off as more cuddly, so Revy.

Which would I want in bed? Revy.

Which would I want on my side in a fight against the other? Major.

Revy, since she will violate you no matter who you are.

The Major hands down. While Revy has instinct, eyes, youth, and unnatural speed. Motoka has instinct, nanospeed eyes, immortally "young", and machine backed speed.

The Major fake hands down!

...Poor Revy.. Didn't even had a chance to draw or give a surprised look before she was dead.

Revy...only because she's holding a gun to head saying she'll make it worth my while....

Major wins in a fight. Enhanced physical prowess, access to advances and near-futuristic weaponry, and incredibly tactical ability. Plus the Tachikomas.

Although I do like Gia's first answer.

Major Kusanagi. WOuld you expect me to say otherwise, lol.

when i first saw this contest of 2 badass babes in my rss feed, i didnt want to choose but reading some of the users' comments i would have to agree the Major would be a great advantage unless Revy could get some serious backup from the Hotel Moscow and the rest of the Lagoon company but if you took those into account you might need to take Section 9 helping Motoko... well i am rambling so i vote the Major

The Major wins. I've seen her take on a sentient tank and win, can Revy say that? I bet not.

Motoko. She's just more awesome in every single way.

Major all the way!

Revy... why you ask? She has more h-doujinshi's about her than Motoko does.

Major Kusanagi wins. I've seen more GITS than I have Black Lagoon for one reason. Another reason is that the Major can handle anything and can motivate those to do better.

Revy is cool, but Motoko all the way!

Major is much smarter and would probably purposley piss Revy off, the Major will use any tactic she thinks will allow her to win..and Revy gets pissed off easily. Also, Seburo>Dual pistols.

how can you go against the Major.Motoko easily.

I think Revy would just get to crazy, the Major is smart plus she's a cyborg.

And another thing. I demand Major be disqualified for her illegal full prosthetic body.

The Major would win hands down. However that makes me sad cause I would want Revy to win T_T

Screw it, I'm kicking reason to the curb and adding my spiral power to Revy's hotness.

I'm voting the latter for the sole reason that she was played by Alison Matthews for a time.

Motoko Kusanagi would win, Revvy is a psycho bitch!

I haven't seen second season of Black lagoon but didn't really enjoy the first one. GITS > Black Lagoon all the way.

Even the 2nd GITS Movie ^_*;

Motoko will definitely win. they call her the Major for a reason you know.

Majooooooooor Kusanagiiiiiiiiii

The Major can't hack Revy, and Revy stood up to Roberta. She'd shoot that cold metal bitch dead.

Revy is damaged goods cause she was molested as a child. The Major is calm and collected, and also robotically enhanced. I love Revy but the Major would win the battle.

flat out, picture-wise? I'm going with the Major.

I'm sorry... I can't choose between these two lovely ladies... instead I'll vote for Balalaika

Major!!!

The Major. No Question.

Revy is cool but the major wins. Definitely the major.

Kusanagi.

Even though Kusanagi has the upper hand with all the implants and augmentations (boob puns not intended), personality wise, she's really boring. I've never read any of the GITS manga, but having watched the 3 movies and the two TV series, Kusanagi is really boring. I guess that's why they spent so many episodes dealing with Togusa and the Tachikomas.

Besides, Revy's jean shorts alone give her the win.

kusanagi.

definitely.

The Major no question.

Also that picture of her is AMAZING!

Kusanagi. As if she's not badass enough, her back up team is insane. Batou, Pazu, Saito and the Tachikoma? Done deal.

Kusanagi, for all the obvious reasons given by people much better informed about GITS than I am.

I gotta go with Revy, not because of any natural advantages, but just because being batshit insane is a huge plus in my book.

The Major...even though all I ever watched of GITS were the title sequences (I love the music) she looked pretty awesome.

Major Kusanagi Would Win

Revy aint no cheating robot

Oh god, this is like the hardest debate ever for me.

Revy won the coin toss in my head.

what the hell is Black Lagoon???
MAJOR MOTOKO KUSANAGI please

the tuesday otaku debates is becoming harder for me to choose one without a second thought. I go with Revy.

Da ghost in da shell, major kusanagi of course

Revy hands down.....two hands down as a matter of fact

The Major wins without question, though they're on equally low ground with regards to terrible fashion sense.

Revy is too bad ass. She gets my vote.

Kusanagi

The Major, since she actually isn't one dimensional.

voting is done go home!

I don't want to go home.

F'N MAJOR DUH

major duh

Even though this debate is probably long over, I feel that it must be said, that while Revy Two Hands, despite being as naturally smokin hot that she is, would ultimately succumb to the Major's enhanced smoking hottness and physical prowress.

I'm gonna say that this is pretty hard question...

Well well. Firstly, Revy's personality is way more interresting than Major Motoko's. Also, it makes her not only charming bitch, but fierce and fearless in combat.

Then second thing: Revy has two pretty unique firearms in her arsenal: "Sword Cutlass Beretta M92 Extended" pistols. They are effective firearms, and Revy is - as we know - "Two Hands". So, if the fight would be the familiar "western" fight with pistols, Revy would be clear winner (even tho Major is experienced, she would not stand a chace).

Third thing: Many people thinks that Revy only uses Cutlass Beretta pistols. She only uses them a lot. She has been seen in the series with Barret anti-tank rifle, RPG7 and underwater-AK47. So she could use a lot of guns.

Lastly: if Revy got the support of her "friend" Balalaika's Spetsnaz forces, Black Lagoon Company's american Vietnam-war veteran Dutch, her mentor mr. Chen's Triad and support of Church of Violence's Eda.....they would blow the Section-9 to the moon.
Why not? In the Black Lagoon series...they did blow the most of Yakuza and islamic terrorists to the moon =D


So go Revy and kill that inhuman Motoko bitch!
(And Rock....would you grab your balls and help her in this one? Be a man!)

Sigh...they both are hot. I feel bad to say this becuz they only are manga/anime characters...but I cant help it. And after all...Revy is smokin' hot plus her personality.

Did you remember The Majors Thermomtic abilities and Sub-Dermal Armour Plating? I mean Revy is my favorite of the two by far but unless she is using tungsten core AP rounds or a LAW in conjunction with a pair of IR Goggles the poor girl is stuffed.
