"Deep into the 21st century, the line between man and machine has been inexorably blurred as humans rely on the enhancement of mechanical implants and robots are upgraded with human tissue. In this rapidly converging technoscape, the covert-ops agents of Section 9 are charged to track and crack the most dangerous terrorists, cybercriminals, and ghost hackers the digital future has to offer. Whether dealing with remote-controlled corpses, lethally malfunctioning micromachines, or cop-killer cyborgs, Section 9 is determined to serve and protect -- and reboot some cybercrook butt!"--P.

Coleção de histórias envolvendo a seção 9 sob a direção de Aramaki e com protagonismo forte de Tegusa, com um tom rápido e ágil de esquadrão policial anti-crime, e um humor bastante policialesco (em contraste com as versões anime, mais existencialistas e sóbrias). Nisso, pra levantar a comparação, trata-se de um volume bem divertido, mas que não evoca grandes questões e que é mais normal, mais encaixado no espectro policiais durões mulheres lindas intrigas internacionais e crimes cibernéticos que cerca de modo mais genérico essa produção.

It's nice to see how the boys of Section 9 operate sans Major Kusanagi, although she is not entirely absent from these stories. Some of the art was disappointing, although the way Shirow draws Batou's facial expressions is always a delight. I forgot that Fuchikomas were in the manga; their presence brought needed levity to some rather bloody situations. Makes me want to rewatch both seasons of Stand Alone Complex (except I sadly don't own it!). (

So-so story (confusing! Somebody should tell Shirow Masamune to go easy on the footnotes), but stunning artwork. (

More adventures of Section 9, dealing with crimes made possible by advanced technology. Shirow puts a lot of thought into his world, but the storytelling doesn’t really grab me; I get the feeling he was trying to cram too much into too small a page count. (
