see you tomorrow posted:New movie trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fn9DEPD7Rko more spoilers I forgot / didn't notice that Unsho Ishizuka was going to be in the movie! Here's hoping he brings some of that HAADO-BOIRUDO with him. Mika being all was loving hilarious for some reason. Kougami as the "bad guy" was like the least surprising twist ever. Here's hopin' we get the movie sometime within 2015. vvv e: Naoyoshi Shiotani was one of the two directors for both seasons of Psycho-Pass and the Blood-C Movie. They probably mentioned Blood-C because it's his only other standalone Director Credit. vvv Wark Say fucked around with this message at 17:02 on Jan 9, 2015 |

Psycho Pass movie OP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZdxCXx3ZjE It's decent enough. Of note, it definitively proves that this takes places after Season 2.

I just finished watching the first season, and it was interesting overall, but I think the show falls apart if you look too closely, because of the alternative ways it presents Sibyl system, which don't really work together. For example, if the Sibyl system can do whatever it wants: -Why do the helmets still work after the trick is revealed? -Why can't it just immediately have people like Makishima stunned and apprehended once it recognizes them? -Why does the Sibyl system seem so generally unintelligent most of the time, except when the plot requires it to be sinister? -In the last episode (I think) Akane explains that her crime coefficient has gone down because the society (i.e. the Sibyl system) needs her. Is it really arbitrary? In general the crime coefficient and psycho-pass seem too consistent to be decided according the whims of the Sibyl system. Maybe there really is an algorithm that can be overridden in certain situations? In general, in terms of sci-fi ideas, I think it was more interesting to see the glimmers of a society that was completely unfair to individuals and didn't mind imprisoning them even if they had never committed crimes, but that actually functioned surprisingly well to a point that it would be difficult to call it a dystopia. Things like academic research and aggression are disincentive to the point where it seems unlikely that the society could ever change (at least as a result of humans), so basically the possibility of progress would have been sacrificed for providing a perfectly safe life for those who the system accepts. I wouldn't be surprised if people mostly only have jobs to keep them busy/happy, but it's hard to tell because in some ways we're shown so little of the rest of society. Basically, the big reveal was kind of interesting on its own, but I think it was a mistake because it undermined the premise of the show I don't know if any of this has been addressed in the second season, which I haven't watched and don't really feel like watching after reading some of the posts here about it.

Yeah, the second season doesn't do the first any favors, but it's got some interesting ideas even if it flubs making something of them. Sybil is meant to be an impartial judge, but because it is based on humans, even if they are abnormal humans, it ends up falling prey to bias and emotional attachment. As for your specific questions: The helmets still work because it blocks Sybil's ability to read brains, and it can't have Makishima or other asymptomatics arrested because Sybil must abide by it's own rules in order to justify its actions. If it starts arresting people w/ low psycho-passes, for whatever reason, then it undermines itself. Therefore, it has to manipulate people to do the job for it.
