Preferably something dark and non comical, Manga and Anime both work.

[m]Kore wa Zombie desu ka[/m] and Übel Blatt have this with reviving the protagonist magically, maybe you dig that whole resurrection thing… And of course, there's the cult classic robocop, but you probably have seen that already.

PS: I was so close to cheer up after days mourning about the ending of my favorite manga (Gunslinger Girl) and you just reminded it to me. So cruel. But too bad there are no "philosophical" manga on cyborgs like that one, at least not that I know. ________________ What I like in Trivial Pursuit style. Pick your category:
