In the final scene, Kusanagi tells Batou that she has become, in fact, a blend of her former self and the Puppet Master AI.
One of Kusanagi’s team, Batou, manages to survive, rescue Kusanagi’s severed head, and escape, later attaching the head to a new robotic body, that of a female child. As they begin the process, Section 6 assaults the hangar, killing most everyone inside. In conversation with the Puppet Master, Kusanagi learns that it envies human mortality and the ability to reproduce, and that it wants to merge with her to create a new being. She is almost killed, but survives to face the Puppet Master via a brain-to-brain link. Kusanagi follows the Section 6 car to a hangar, where she confronts a powerful R-3000 “spider tank” guardian. Suspicious, Section 9 investigates, only to discover that the Puppet Master is not a person but an artificial intelligence created by Section 6 to conduct illegal activities across the internet, including “ghost-hacking” into people’s minds. Section 6 agents load the gynoid into a car and speed away. Before they can do so, a competing agency called Section 6 storms in and takes it, explaining they had the shell made to lure the Puppet Master in. When it is accidentally run down by a truck, Section 9 recovers the gynoid to learn if it contains the Puppet Master.
A consciousness is downloaded into the gynoid “shell” and it escapes the facility. Unfortunately after the garbage man is captured, they learn his memories have been erased.Įlsewhere, a facility is hacked to produce a robotic female body, a gynoid. Their lead officer, Motoko Kusanagi, leads the team to chase down a garbage man who has had contact with the Puppet Master. Sometime in the “near future,” (June 13, 2029, as the interfaces will tell you) a cybernetic assault team who works for a mysterious government agency called Section 9 is hot on the trail of a hacker known as the Puppet Master.
