The universe is set in the year 2045, after an economic disaster known as the Simultaneous Global Default destroyed the value of all forms of paper and electronic currency, triggering a never-ending "Sustainable War" to keep the economy going.

In this world, Motoko, Batou, and other members of Public Security Section 9 have contracted themselves out as mercenaries under the group "GHOST," using their cybernetic enhancements and battle experience to earn a living while defusing hot-spots across the globe. However, the emergence of "Post Humans" and a conspiracy uncovered by former Chief Aramaki force Section 9 to reunite.

The first season premiered exclusively on Netflix worldwide on April 23, 2020.

The original net animation (ONA) is produced by animation studios Production I.G and SOLA DIGITAL ARTS. The series is directed by Kenji Kamiyama and Shinji Aramaki.
