Catsuka website give some details. [see here]
It goes like this :
It is a story about a psychiatrist named Atsuko. She is also known as Paprika, a strange detective who is the creator of a technology that give her the hability to explore her patient mind. One day, someone steal her technology. After that, some strange cases of psychological disorder are found. Paprika begin to inquire about it to find who stole her device and why.

I hope what I wrote was understandable. Embarassed

But his idea of messing with your mind is very well played. It's not like Satoshi just throws something in to make it seems like that, and not only that it enjoyable to watch his shows.

Dargon: I'm guessing Sony's releasing it, since there's a page on their official Japanese site. But it's also possible they decided to get out of the anime business.

Here's the online translation of the novel synopsis from amazon.co.jp:

As for Atuko Chiba which is served in the psychiatry laboratory the researcher of Nobel Prize class/サイコセラピスト. But there was a face of another secret in her. Dream and the synchronizer of others doing, the dream detective paprika which invades the non conscious boundary. The scramble where also destruction of personality is related to possible extent powerful latest line of spiritual remedy technology "DC mini-" increases carving/moment moment and tension, actuality and dream to the extremity as for the instant and the story world which were complicated rush to the not yet experience zone of astonishment.


Horrible translation, I know, but I think you can get the gist of it.
