In the year 2032, Batô, a cyborg detective for the anti-terrorist unit Public Security Section 9, investigates the case of a female robot--one created solely for sexual pleasure--who slaughtered her owner.
In the near future, human organs are enhanced by the cybernetics technology developed by the powerful Hanka Robotics Corporation owned by Cutter. Dr. Ouelet is responsible for the development of the secret project 2571 of a full mechanical body to be connected to a human brain. She uses the brain of a young woman that lost her parents in a cyber attack as subject of a prototype. One year later, the woman is ranked Major and has joined Section 9, an anti-terrorist division commanded by Chief Daisuke Aramaki, working with agents Batou and Togusa. She needs to use a medicine to help the integration of her brain with the mechanical body and has no recollections of her previous life. When Section 9 hunts down the terrorist Kuze, Major learns the secrets about Hanka Robotics and the experiment she was subjected. Now she faces her ultimate enemy: Kuze, a criminal who has managed to hack into the brains of androids and control them.Written by

The animatronic Geisha masks were powered by having the batteries and wiring located in the hair sections of the mask, while an earpiece was located on the side of the mask so that the actresses would be able to hear the director's commands. Fans were also mounted inside the masks to provide proper ventilation for the actresses, but even then, it still got so hot that they had to remove the masks every 10 minutes. See more »
Goofs
In the car and suitcase shooting scene, Aramaki somehow manages to fire 8 shots out of a 6-shot revolver without reloading. That his revolver only holds the (typical) number of 6 cartridges is clearly visible in a close-up in previous scene. See more »
