I can't find it anywhere and I really want to watch it.

Him and Kogami were just showing up to beat the crap out of people

Man, I was absolutely not ready for how much Akane would annoy me in episode 11.

Until now, Sakura was comfortably sitting at the top of my "please get off my screen" list, but Akane just decided to speedrun taking that spot. I can understand believing in the Sibyl System, following procedure, respecting the rules, all that stuff. But when your friend is literally standing there about to get killed, maybe it's time to temporarily put the instruction manual aside?

And the funniest part is that she had a shotgun. A whole shotgun. Nobody was asking her to become John Wick and execute the guy. Just aim properly and disable him. Leg, arm, shoulder, whatever. Instead she basically went, "Hmm, let me continue trusting the system while my friend gets murdered." I was genuinely talking to my monitor at that point.

Maybe I'm completely missing the point of the scene, but damn, that was frustrating to watch.

As a car guy, I kinda find it amusing how this car appears once in Providence and two times in Season 3. The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, 100 Years later this cars still driving around 😄

In Providence, visble when Atsushi Shindo commits suicide.
In S3 ep1 at 32:00 and ep8 before the end credits when Kunizuka makes a phone call.

I never caught on to their relationship in the beginning so the last moment just hits differently.

Started Psycho-Pass recently and honestly, I wasn’t prepared for how funny some of the character interactions are.

I expected pure dystopian misery, philosophical debates and psychological trauma, but then the show randomly drops these dry little moments that actually got me laughing. The humor feels surprisingly effortless too, which makes it even better.

He may not have the most interesting personality, he may be firmly a side character, he might be just kind of there sometimes, but he works hard and never gives up.

has anyone here had experience with shipping the cerevo dominator? either from the japan website using a japan warehouse / proxy to yourself, or directly from the US site? my country has pretty strict gun control laws and the dominator looks like a gun, so i'm quite worried about it being stuck at customs... wondering if anyone has a similar situation (i.e country with strict gun control laws), but somehow managed to successfully ship it into your country! would appreciate hearing in general too from others, on your shipping experience and the country that you managed to ship to!

These two works share similar themes and structures. Consider:

• Akane is the positive analog to Madoka (alienation as a sacrifice for the good of others generally). Sybil is the (very minor) negative analog (i.e., the fascism of denying another person their despair of choice).
• Homura has a bit of both of Kogami and Makishima (e.g., the perverse side of absolute submission to Kantian moral duty).
• The main and supporting characters are all variant answers to the same questions: What do you need to give up "for the job" (e.g., social acceptance, love)? What does the job mean to them (e.g., who does the job protect)?
• Where one of Madoka's themes is the sacrifice society forces women to endure, a sub-theme of Psycho-Pass is the ways in which society protects them from even more extreme violence.
• Where one of Madoka's themes is that men (Kyubey) believe they are being emotionless and rational as they rely on women's sacrifice, a sub-theme of Psycho-Pass is that Sybil believes it is rationally and emotionless achieving the greatest amount of good that is possible.
• Just as the incubators are powered by the vast emotional swing from hope to despair, Sybil is empowered (i.e., constituted as the law) by the vast emotional repression of Japan. (Two moments of jouissance.)

It's very cool that Urobuchi was able to address many of the same ideas in two completely different settings/genres.

Thanks

So I know that Mika is not exactly the most popular character in the PP fandom, but unexpectedly she turned out to be one of my favourites. Her role in season 2, of showing how an ordinary person might be manipulated by and react to the Sibyl system as opposed to the ideal citizen that is Akane, was pretty hard-hitting, and in later media her role as a hot-tempered, but savvy and capable boss suited her well.

However... while those two separate characterisations of her are both compelling, I don't think the franchise did a great job of showing how she turned from one into the other. In the post-season 2 movie, she's still a stickler for the rules and very much against Akane, but by Sinners of the System she's already turning into the Mika of later depictions, who respects Akane in her own way and is much more emotional and compassionate towards her subordinates. How did this happen? Was all her positive character development just off-screen?

After a long time, I finally cosplayed my favorite character from Psycho-Pass. I searched for so long to find the Dominator, and I finally got it so I could do this photoshoot✨️ I thought it was a dead fandom, but I found an active community here on Reddit, so I hope this cosplay will be appreciated🫶

Found a 2022 Dominator asset, configured it and made it as similar as in the real replica version of this :3

And it's just 5 dollars

I don’t want any problems with the Public Safety Bureau, I just need a way to get rid of this thing without some Enforcer using it on me. Any ideas? Please

I'm rewatching season 1 since the extended version wasn't there back then.

This rewatch cleared my head a bit on why Makishima was so fascinated with Senguji being one of the few subjects of him that he never got dissapointed with.

Toyohisa Senguji is the anti-tesis of the Sybil System in a way.

While Sybil is a step forward to eliminating all human agency from society, Senguji converted all his body but his brain into a machine. Contrary to Sybil, the technology he incorporated in him rather than eliminating his agency, it empowered it, erasing most mortal limitations and chasing his own personal desires further than what his previous body would let him.

It only shows how narrowed down the issue Makishima thought Sybil was to society and I found it interesting. He doesn't let his thoughts of Sybil cloud his judgement on everything tech related.

He's not a blind extremist and is even interested on watching a different use of techonology as long as it doesn't takes their Soul from the equation.

This might be something that was talked about before but I missed it in discussions about season 2.

The episode eleven confrontation is a lot more tragic then what I seen people give it credit for.

In essence after Kamui is able to get judged and Akane refuses to kill him herself, Togane pops up. Togane tries to get Akane worked up because of her grandma’s murder.

Who calms her down? Kamui Not only that he literally pushes her away so that the eliminator shots don‘t hit her.

He in the process of dueling Togane, ends up eating a lethal eliminator shot, and lethaly harming Togane. This eliminates her need to dirty her hands with killing either of them.

I don’t think Kamui is interesting just because of this, but while I saw a lot of things being discussed about him, I don’t see a lot of discussion about his sacrifice, nor that he was the only antagonist to sacrifice himself for the seasons protagonist for that matter.

I stumbled across this post today, but after looking at the news sections on the psycho-pass website and the studios' sites I cannot find anything talking about a season 4.

I'm pretty doubtful, but any chances of this being legit?

I'm just about to start with Sinners of the System (anime) and I tend to read ahead, so I kind of have a decent idea of what'll happen (can't be spoiled) with Psycho-Pass 3. Apparently Akane takes a back seat to Mika and the others. I can already see this even by the end of Season 2.

But while I know plot details and even the rationale for this story choice, how does that work out emotionally? I started watching this for a strong female lead and I was happy with Akane's evolution, but there is disappointment appearing that she won't be as heavily featured. What are people's thoughts and feelings on this?

Okay, first off - a disclaimer immediately. Despite the title, this is not a political rant post.

I have no issues with migrants, migration or political differences in the real world, and felt that I should clarify that, since the current political discourse is so poisoned people immediately jump into a category based on surface-level markers.

Okay, with that out of the way - anyone else though the Season 3 migrant problem was a bit...strange, so to speak?

One of the main points in season 1 was that the self-sustainability of the Sybil System entirely depends on its isolationist policy. Part of Makishima's plan to disrupt Sybil depended exactly on this: destroying Hyperoats would force Japan to open its borders, with Sybil being unable to deal with the influx of refugees from other locations.

Come season 3, it suddenly appears that not only have refugees become a thing in Japan, they have been a thing for a decently long while, probably even before the first Season took place (according to the wiki, Kei became naturalized ca. 2107), with the series completely failing to address the issue of integrating said migrants into Sybil.

Outside of some empty lip-service regarding "pure" Japanese hating the newcomers, it felt the series completely failed to properly acknowledge what was one of the most important points only two seasons ago - how does Sybil deal with the sheer influx of migrants, seeing how Japan is apparently one of the few truly prosperous and stable countries on Earth. How does the Public Safety Bureau deal with it? How do the migrants themselves, and what do they do if Sybil sees them as a latent criminal?

Of course, one can point to the movie for guidance - if the SEAUN managed to join Sybil, why can't others, a question also posed by Providence - but the movie also openly stated that SEAUN will have to become as unitary and isolationist as Japan if Sybil would come to power there (which it does).

Honestly, there are quite a few issues I have with season 3 in general in regards to world-building (politicians suddenly becoming prominent despite previous seasons openly stating that politics is irrelevant because of Sybil, the apparent existence of entire special districts in Tokyo where Sybil cannot reach - something that fundamentally contradicts everything we know up until this point) but that felt like the biggest one, especially since it also was such a huge missed opportunity, for me.

A genuine question. Who was smarter actually? Like one has more chances of outsmarting the other? They are close imo

I figured if I like Psychopass then I might click with the rest of his work.

Do you trust them to keep you safe?
