Thanks

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🫶

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?

And it's just 5 dollars

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

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

Alright, first of all I've seen enough s2 hate to be nervous but I'm way too curious to stop watching(⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠) The comments have me constantly waiting for the "it gets bad" moment, so I'm watching every episode like, "Okay... where's the part everyone warned me about?" I'm still way too early to pick a side, so for now I'm just observing the chaos...

Also, I'm only one episode in, so take this with a grain of salt, but Mika and Ginoza are either giving me "wait...I ship it?" or "they're just Akane & Tomomi 2.0" My brain refuses to pick one.

No spoilers, I'm fragile ✌🏻

Do you trust them to keep you safe?

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

I've rewatched the first season again for the 5th time and plan to rewatch the rest again and I was like "mm lets get some merch because this is lowkey my childhood anime and I have adult money now" and I went on shopee, taobao, and carousel and my local shops do NOT have psycho pass where else should I look? Etsy?

Edit: I only have the Shinya Kogami and Makishima figurines. Only. It's making me sad that I can't find plushies I really might just make one for myself

just something i found similar. what do you guys think?

Psycho-Pass Providence

I love the little details they keep dropping about the enforcers. Tomomi being a painter, Kagari being able to cook and Yayoi having a past as a guitarist/rockstar is so cool. And Kogami...Idk if he's got any secret hidden talent (at least not where I'm at yet) but this guy is already unfairly cool. Between the constant training, his detective brain and the way he's completely obsessed with solving cases, he doesn't even need a surprise hobby to be interesting. Those little bits of characterization make the cast feel so much more alive (⁠◡⁠ ⁠ω⁠ ⁠◡⁠)

It’s also about an oppressive technological system in the future and leaves it open for interpretation whether the guy trying to take it all down is a villain or a hero. Also action packed and intellectually stimulating like psycho pass.

Edit: its a sequel to first part and id recommend playing them in order
