The year is 2029, a near future Japan, where the world has become highly information-intensive, with a vast corporate network covering the planet, electrons and light pulsing through it. But the nation-state ethnic groups still survive. Motoko Kusanagi, a full-body cyborg, leads an elite combat unit of fellow cyborgs, including Batou. While commanding her team, Kusanagi envisions the creation of a specialized task force to preemptively strike against emerging threats. Meanwhile, Daisuke Aramaki of the Ministry of Home Affairs, who had been planning to establish a similar unit, scouts Kusanagi and her team. Together, they begin operations as Public Security Section 9 — an aggressive tactical organization known as the "Shell Squad." As they confront complex cyber-crimes and international conspiracies, the existence of a mysterious, unidentified hacker known as "the Pupper Master" emerges on the horizon of their investigation. What fate awaits Kusanagi? And what is the Puppet Master's true objective? A new era of cyberbunk action begins.
