![]() | ARAMAKI: Chief, Security Police Section 9 Aramaki is very intelligent and resourceful enough to control the unique personalities of Bateau and Kusanagi. He has been Chief of the secret intelligence agency for as long as anyone can remember. He would rather get his job done and hates to intervene in politics. However, he is also the Machiavelist who doesn't mind getting his hands dirty in pursuit of duty. His personality is too complex to perceive what he is actually thinking. |
"MAJOR" MOTOKO KUSANAGI:![]() | BATEAU: Security Police Section 9 An expert of unlawful activities like Motoko, he has been working as her partner for several years. His role is to support and control Kusanagi (who tends to go too far). They have been working together so long that they have grown accustomed to each other. His personal life is unknown. |
| TOGUSA: Security Police Section 9 Togusa is in his late 20's and married. He is the rare case of a person who has transferred to Section 9 from the police department, after being scouted by Kusanagi. Even though his brain has a connection to the cybernet, most of his body is still original. Togusa is considered an outsider by the other members of Section 9, who are mostly cyborgs transferred from the military. | ![]() |
![]() | ISHIKAWA: Security Police Section 9 The oldest member of Section 9 except for Aramaki. He is relied upon to keep his cool in a crisis. |
NAKAMURA: Chief, Security Police Section 6
Ministry of Foreign Affairs, treaty ratification division.
Nakamura's territory is different from Section 9, however, after the Puppet Master incident, he
launched a secret operation, trying to out-maneuver Aramaki and Section 9. He is more likely to go
"by the book" than Aramaki.
PUPPET MASTER: Offical codename "Project 2501"

activities. It is connected to all the computer networks in the world. After accessing various kinds of databases and programs, it reached sentience and claimed itself a life form.
WILLIS:
The Chief Manager of Project 2501 development team. He has a strange sympathy for the Puppet
Master and is one of the only people who can understand "him".
