THE GHOST IN THE SHELL
“The aggressive unit "Shell Squad", led by the full-body cyborg Motoko Kusanagi.”
2029, a near-future Japan. The full cyborg Motoko Kusanagi envisions a task force that preemptively strikes emerging threats. She and her team are scouted by Daisuke Aramaki as Public Security Section 9, AKA the "Shell Squad." An international conspiracy hints at a hacker known as The "Puppet Master." What fate awaits Kusanagi? What is the hacker's endgame?
Kusanagi loses her prosthetic body when it is gunned down, and she flees the scene with Batou as a disembodied brain. They go to Batou's safehouse to get her a new body, but she is channeled into by the presumed-destroyed Puppet Master while in lockdown mode.
