I'd be mad about this shit too, but in this case I think it's easily justified. Motoko is a robot - she could've picked up an American model or something. shrug

In the world of Ghost in the Shell, America collapses and is replaced by a remnant state, the "American Empire." Japan is the closest thing the world has to a nation rivaling the USA's power.

i was never totally clear on whether the "american empire" was literally just a snide renaming of the US or whether there was a political change at some point
