1st Promotional Video (PV)
The 1st PV features the very first look at actual footage from the anime. It offers a thrilling glimpse into the high-stakes drama and cyberpunk SF action woven together by Motoko Kusanagi, a full-body cyborg, and the members of Public Security Section 9.

1st Key Visual
The 1st Key Visual, featuring Motoko Kusanagi, was specially illustrated by Shuhei Handa, the series' Character Design & Executive Animation Director.
This stunning visual serves as both a profound homage to Shirow Masamune’s original The Ghost in the Shell illustrations and a breathtaking icon of cyberpunk sci-fi.

Both the 1st PV and the 1st Key Visual are currently on display at the "Ghost and the Shell: The Ghost in the Shell Exhibition" exhibition venue, alongside original production drawings from the series.
