However, doing their job according to the law seems to be an even lesser priority to them than for most of their enemies. Arrested for Heroism: The first season climaxes with Section 9 trying to avoid this as a leak to the public media of their existence set them up be used as scapegoats for a massive government scandal. Badass Crew: A team of Super Cops who work to fight crime and terrorism. Black and Gray Morality: Section Nine may be the good guys, but they regularly hack private databases, engage in blackmail, are familiar with torture, kill people, and generally break the laws that would have applied if they weren't above them.

It's referenced repeatedly that the only reason they get away with these actions is though Aramaki's brilliant diplomacy. Cowboy Cop: All of Section 9 can be considered an example, given the corrupt state of the Japanese government and the fact that Section 9 seems to spend more time fighting against rival national security and military forces loyal to other factions of the government than actually dealing with terrorists. Iconic Outfit: The black outfits they wear in the V- Formation Team Shot from the opening to the second season. No Such Agency: The section is not supposed to exist beyond the first season.

Power Walk: Done very well by them in the second season intro. Secret Police: A secret organization dedicated to fighting dangerous criminals and terrorists. State Sec: A heroic version. Not the nicest folks and they'll happily murder anyone who tries to get in their way but they're genuinely motivated by a sense of justice and trying to do what is right.

Super Cop: They have cyborg bodies, advanced weapons, super hacking skills, and the Tachikomas. It helps that many of them are former soldiers. To Be Lawful or Good: They try to work within the law whenever they can, but given the amount of corruption in the Japanese government they will often wind up in situations where breaking the law is the only way to protect the public. They never hesitate. She is a full- conversion cyborg, having been fully inorganic except her brain and part of her spinal column since about age six.

Her skills are exceptional, and while her body is a standard cyborg model it's modified extensively with top- of- the- line custom military cybernetics. A brilliant hacker, able to invade even the connected human mind. She has a cold demeanor and a strict devotion to her job, bordering on sociopathy. The Ace: Inside Section 9, at least. It is easier to list the domains where she is not the most skilled of the team - that would be sharpshooting (Saito), knowledge of explosives (Borma), detective work (Togusa), and politics (Aramaki). Batou and Ishikawa often challenge her in general mayhem and hacking respectively, but they tend to hit the plank most of the times. Ace Custom: The Major's body is an ace custom.

The base model is a civilian model that was fashionable a few years prior to the series but with red eyes and purple hair plus a ton of illegal mods. Action Girl: The best there is in Section 9 at just about anything related to fighting. And I Must Scream: She's Strapped to an Operating Table and finds out too late that the doctor is an assassin, who immobilizes her body, then her voice, then shuts down the vision of her eyes. Anti- Hero: The . It's because she doesn't know what her real name is anymore. Berserk Button: Anyone that harms children.

Note that she was cyberized as a child herself. She gets pretty pissed when the head of the goon squad trying to retake Imakurusu comes at her and her squad with what is essentially a mech suit. So much so that she repeatedly shoots at him at point blank range with an anti- tank rifle. Bi the Way: Unclear; she doesn't have a boyfriend in this continuity, but she also doesn't have explicit lesbian VR- sex either (she's just seen talking philosophy with Kurtan in bed while Ran comes out of the shower). Kurutan and Ran are still by far the closest thing the Major has to a long term romantic relationship. Kurtan later accompanies her to hospital, checks out her new cyborg body and comments on how excited it makes her to think of what she could do with all the illegal modifications her new body has.

In 2nd Gig's first episode, she (jokingly) suggests the team goes to a nudie bar if they are told to stand down from their impending mission. Also in 2nd Gig, there's one episode where she ends up spending the night with a teenaged Taiwanese street boy. The kid asks her if she can still have sex in a full- prosthetic body and she practically pulls a Mrs. Robinson on him. He decides he's not interested after all, and she is very amused at that. In her childhood, the young Motoko did have a boy she was in love with. In the manga, she does seem to have a boyfriend. Sugi makes a brief appearance in FAKE FOOD, even asking if Batou and Togusa knows her.

While this is not enough evidence to suggest he is her boyfriend in this continuity, he does use 'Motoko', her actual name, when referring to her and not 'The Major', unlike seemingly everyone else who's worked with her on a professional level. This probably means they know each other outside of work. By- the- Book Cop: Invoked in one episode when Togusa refers to her this way, although it's debatable how true this is.

The Captain: She's Section 9's field leader. Combat Stilettos: She wears heels with her military uniform while protecting the Superintendent- General. Cyborg: A full- conversion cyborg and entirely inorganic, save her brain and spinal column. Deadpan Snarker: A common expression of hers.

Does Not Know Her Own Strength: During her early life in a highly enhanced prosthetic body, Motoko had difficulty controlling the prosthetics' strength. She mentions that she once smashed a doll by being unable to control her own limbs (a shot that appears in the opening credits of the first series). Dressing as the Enemy: The Major steals a British SWAT trooper's uniform to rescue Aramaki in ANGELS' SHARE using nothing but her sex appeal. Drives Like Crazy: Including once while ghost- diving. Fair Cop: The Major of Section 9 and very beautiful. However, as a Cyborg her attractiveness is artificial.

Fearless Fool: While she doesn't do it the same way as a stereotypical Shonen hero, it becomes increasingly obvious as the series goes on that she is overconfident to the point of being suicidally brave and feels no fear in situations where ever her hardened comrades are inclined to back down. To the point it's almost a running joke that Batou tells her not to . Part of this is some definitely justified self- confidence, given she can demonstrably outperform almost any member of her highly skilled team in any given area, and is more resourceful than all of them combined, but she is still flesh and blood (albeit artificial) and can be taken by surprise and overwhelmed. Fingerless Gloves: Often wears a pair of black ones.

Firing One- Handed: She fires Saito's anti- tank rifle single handed. Friends with Benefits: Seems to be the case with her relationship with Kurtan and Ran, although she's usually too busy to spend much time with them - clearly to Kurtan's frustration. Genius Bruiser: Every member of Section 9 has a speciality.

Motoko specializes in the leadership of her team, hacking and net- diving, stealth and infiltration, and close quarters combat, among many other things. She's not as specialized with explosives as Borma is, or sharpshooting like Saito. Guns Akimbo: The Major wields twin pistols when fighting Gayle in ERASER.

Hell- Bent for Leather: Frequently seen wearing a punkish leather jacket. Heroic B. S. O. D.: Undergoes ones after diving into Kuze's cyberbrain. She gets better after a short while. Heroic R. R. O. D.: Subverted. In the second episode of the series, there's a Shout- Out to the original movie, but she doesn't RROD; she's just not strong enough, and nothing happens.
