In near-future Japan, where a vast corporate network covers the globe, with electrons and light pulsing through. Despite that, the world is not yet digitalized to the point of nations and ethnic groups disappearing. Motoko Kusanagi, a full-body cyborg, leads an elite combat unit, including Batou. While commanding her team, Kusanagi envisions the creation of a specialized task force to preemptively strike against emerging threats. Daisuke Aramaki of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who had been planning to establish a similar unit, recruits Kusanagi and her team. They then begin operations as Public Security Section 9, an offensive tactical unit known as "Shell Squad." As they confront complex cybercrimes and international conspiracies, the existence of a mysterious, unidentified hacker known as The "Puppet 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 cyberpunk action begins!■EPISODE 01: PROLOGUE + SUPER SPARTAN i During a raid on a meeting with a foreign representative that he suspects involves corruption and criminal activity, Public Security's Daisuke Aramaki encounters a mysterious cyborg.
