Here you will find reviews and summaries of each Stand Alone Complex Episode, S.A.C. 2ndGIG (eventually), as well as the Tachikoma Specials and anything else to do with Stand Alone Complex. I've included various bits of trivia and information plus things to look out for. I don't recommend reading the reviews until you've seen the whole show, because I may mention things from future episodes if they relate.
This is by far going to be the most extensive part of the site, and will take a lot of time. I plan on doing the summarys first, and then the reviews (probably when the seasons have ended and I've had a chance to rewatch them a few times over.)
NOT EVERYTHING IS COMPLETE YET.
It's important to note that each episode's title is half in Japanese, and half in English. I've only included the English part because not everyone can view Japanese characters easily, and a translation would be a poor substitute. Besides, on the Japanese DVDs, the English part of the title is shown as prominent (and sometimes on it's own) as if it's the more important part.
Click the title to be taken to details on the episode, as well as a review. Since the show is Japanese, and this site is in English, there might be differences in my plot summaries. Afterall, half of translation is interprative, espically when trying to peice together a story. The fact that Stand Alone Complex's stories are often highly interprative by themselves doesn't help matters either!
Stand Alone Complex
The first season is 26 episodes at a length of 24:30 minutes each.
The episodes aired from October 2002 until October 2003 on SkyPerfecTV (two episodes per month.) They were pay-per-view, and cost 800 Yen for each pair of episodes.

S.A.C. 2ndGIG
The second season is also 26 episodes at a length of 24:30 minutes each.
It's currently airing now, in the same way the first season did. Once it's further along (and I have more of the first season covered), I will add more information here.
Tachikoma Specials
These are (mostly) comedy shorts featuring the Tachikomas that last for less than two minutes each. There are 26 (plus a few bonus ones), they were exclusives on the DVDs. They are pretty neat, containing some funny moments and neat computer animation tricks.
