New Ghost in the Shell Series Premieres on Prime Video

Exciting news for anime fans!

On July 7, 2026, a brand-new adaptation of the legendary 'Ghost in the Shell' manga premiered exclusively on Amazon Prime Video.

Produced by the acclaimed studio Science Saru, this series brings the iconic story of Major Motoko Kusanagi and the elite Section 9 unit to life once again.

Set in a near-future, digitized Japan of 2029, the plot follows the team as they battle cyber-crime and investigate the mysterious 'Puppet Master.'
