The distinctive twin towers of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building served as inspiration for several futuristic government buildings depicted in the film. The building's imposing brutalist architecture perfectly captures the cyberpunk aesthetic that defines the movie's urban landscape.
📺 Scene from the Anime
The building's architecture influenced the design of Section 9 headquarters and various government facilities shown throughout the film
