In the first episode of Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 season 1, titled "NO NOISE NO LIFE - Sustainable War," the Major and her team are deployed to the island nation of Taiwan to investigate an unusual situation. The Taiwanese government has created an autonomous zone within its borders, separate from the mainland, to develop advanced technology and a new form of sustainable energy. However, in the process, they have created ethical concerns that have caught the attention of the Prime Minister of Japan.
The Major and Section 9 team are tasked with finding out what is really going on in the autonomous zone, which is sealed off from the rest of Taiwan and protected by heavily armed forces. Once they arrive, they are met with resistance from the local authorities, who are distrustful of outsiders. They quickly discover that the new energy project has some darker implications, including the manipulation of the human mind to increase productivity and the replacement of human workers with advanced AI.
As the team delves deeper into the secrets of the autonomous zone, they encounter a mysterious group of hackers who seem to be working to expose the truth about what is happening there. Meanwhile, tensions between the Taiwanese government and the Japanese Prime Minister continue to rise as the true nature of the project is revealed. And as Section 9 uncovers more evidence of a dangerous conspiracy, they realize that they may be the only ones who can stop a catastrophic event from taking place.
The episode is filled with action-packed sequences, high-tech gadgetry, and suspenseful moments as the Major and her team navigate the dangerous world of the autonomous zone. Fans of the original Ghost in the Shell franchise will be pleased to see the return of familiar characters like Batou, and the stunning visuals and animation style stay true to the series' cyberpunk roots. Overall, "NO NOISE NO LIFE - Sustainable War" sets the stage for an exciting and thought-provoking season of Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045.
