| This entire episode felt like Kara no Shoujo. It seems like Gen is also a fan of Innocent Grey VNs. |
| Ok™ |
| Psychos, Psychos everywhere. Just like Gen's work, there's always people who are evil for the sake of being evil... Psycho-Pass |

| What a pretty modern art masterpiece! Guess you could say that the art senpai... (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■) ...really had her work cut out for her. |
| After reading through this thread, I'm glad that I'm not the only one who noticed that as well. I'm also glad I'm not the only person on MAL who read Kara no Shoujo. |
| Ok™ |

Nice find there. Also incredibly hard to look at that picture for more than a few seconds now. |

Nice find there. Also incredibly hard to look at that picture for more than a few seconds now. I see only a very vague ressemblance. But the police logo is interesting : it's a mix between a scale (justice) and a caduceus (medicine). If the misuse of the caduceus (instead of the rod of Asclepius) is intentionnal, it could be very interesting ;) |
| OMG that painting and that statue is so sick !! |
 |
| When the 'art senpai' comforted that other girl I thought that I was watching some yuri show lol. |
| for some reason I really liked the ending of this episode. That crazy art girl is bloody amazing. . . in a f*cked up way. . . |
| i have a felling that yayoi and shion have a lesbian relationship in 1st episode i saw shion pulling up her stockings when yayoi came out of the door.i may be getting a wrong idea though. |

| A very good episode!!! And I only have one thing to say: Those 2 murderers, including the black hair girl that gives off a bad vibe right from the moment I saw her ( the vibe of a hypocrite), ARE FREAKS!! Also this episode made the scene at the end not that scary, quite normal!! I think. |
| Signature |
| A fantastic episode! Though it was disgusting at the end... That girl is creepy! And Shogo is just making everything worse. Ugh. I can't believe I even like these types of things. I wonder what my Psycho-Pass would've been if I lived in their world? Lol. |
 I’m just trying to be okay. Some days it’s harder than others. I hide away the most real parts of myself from everyone else. The emotions that I try to escape from. The constant pain I feel. The nightmares that keep me awake at night. It hurts sometimes... knowing that the world is continuing happily all around me while I continue to drown in alcohol and slowly die inside myself. |
| oh god, the end was /beyond/ creepy, nobody has freaked me out in this show as much as this art senpai did |
| This was one creepy episode. I find that "senpai" character completely disgusting. I hope they infiltrate the school as students or something. That would be funny |
 |
| Great episode, I found the art girl to be pretty creepy but I still like her, mainly because I really like her VA. This show's finally starting to show its true colours, and is starting to really feel like Gen's work now. |

| It's ok, I didn't need sleep anyway |

I firmly believe that they are having lesbomancy with each other. lolz Yes they definitely do. So pretty creepy episode, almost everybody probably knew it was the art girl just by how creepy she was. Damn that smile at the end was good in a bad kind of way, can't wait to see them take her down. |
| If strength is justice, then is powerlessness a crime? |
| Though the last episode was quite good, this was easily the best since the first. This episode felt superbly meticulous in it's construction, rather than the occasionally middling execution found in the majority of those that came before, as it deftly weaved a plethora of small, but meaningful character developments into the story, while also satisfyingly illuminating a heightened complexity within the larger narrative. Akane's transition into an Enforcer and the possibility that her mind could eventually succumb to her darker inclinations continues to be foreshadowed, as intimated during Ginoza's conversation with his Chief. This particular scene alluded to the intriguing mystery involving Kogami's irrevocable descent, while also slipping in another element of characterization for Ginoza with the brief mention of his seemingly disgraced father. Surprisingly, the case from the second episode was momentarily focused on once more, which I thought was an excellent touch, since it contributes to a greater understanding of the narrative, as it could potentially indicate a much less episodic nature to the story than initially expected. The opening and ending scenes were the best moments of the episode. The opening greatly elaborated on Shinya's past, effectively developing his character and fully divulging the expected truth behind his motivations. The final scene, in which Satsuki's body had been dismembered and rearranged into a revolting work of art, and the last line, in particular, provided an incredibly effective cliffhanger to conclude the episode with, as it excellently illustrated the unsettling brutality that permeates their society. Akane and Shinya continue to be the only characters with a heightened level of satisfying characterization, but I felt this episode worked quite well in establishing another level of depth to several characters, particularly Ginoza. This episode also illustrated further parallels between Akane and Shinya, which have always been quite evident, but these similarities are starting to be noticed by the others as well. The character interactions are gradually improving. I especially enjoyed Akane's drunken conversation with Kagari, since their few scenes throughout the show have been rather engaging. Shougo is a fascinating antagonist, as he subtly manipulates murderous intent, providing the trigger for the inevitability of their mental deterioration. As such, though somewhat predictable, the reveal that he was assisting Rikako with her considerably disturbing desires was terrific. It seems likely that these nuanced machinations will inevitably result in the orchestrated formation of a complex, all-encompassing plan, which very well could already be the reason for his intricately designed actions, rather than a purely simplistic explanation of mere enjoyment. The direction was solid, but largely unspectacular, save for the first and final sequences. The opening, for example, was directed with a very effective approach towards visual storytelling. The distorted colors and bizarre camera angles illuminated the essential elements within Shinya's nightmare, such as Shinya's anguished expression at the sight of his mangled friend, followed by a shot of the dead Sasayama's face, culminating with Shinya's own contorted face reflected in his eyes. All in all, Psycho-Pass, following several disappointing episodes, has impressed considerably with it's last two. It still has yet to reach it's potential, but, throughout the previous two episodes, there's been a noticeable improvement in that area. As such, for the first time since the introductory episode, the story that was told felt relatively ambitious. I definitely hope that continues and that it will eventually filter into the narrative. |

| That statue was so good-looking. |
| I might be the only one but the statue was really interesting and appealing. It is indeed pretty sick when you realize it's a dead body but well... Great episode. |
| The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything. |
| We got some more info of Kougami's past and his goal. I liked the ending... look what they did to the girl! |
| Damn, the murderers in this series sure are creative in terms of killing off their victims. Also, I lol'd at the people who found that girl's body in the end; they seriously thought it was just an artistic decoration? Haha wow, one might almost think that it was their psycho-passes whose number was too high. |
 |
| wow its getting intresting |

cladinpink said: Also, I lol'd at the people who found that girl's body in the end; they seriously thought it was just an artistic decoration? Haha wow, one might almost think that it was their psycho-passes whose number was too high. because its plastinated. looks like taken from a anatomy class, reassembled and decorated. but that's the jest of it. some people are just indifferent about the deaths of others. |
| Simplistic beauty can't be appreciated by someone who looks for something grand in everything he watch. |
| To be honest, I actually think that statue looked like real art even though I knew it was a living human. IT looked liked something you would find in a strange museum although it would've been made from some material instead of flesh and bones. All of this has been very interesting so far, and this is the most promising arc so far imo. I'm looking forward more. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| If Shinya's gay then... ;_; it ruins my OTP |
| This episode was sick.. starting with the nightmare Shinya had ( guess he wants revenge for the death of his friend) The white haired guy?( killed him?) The painting girl is a a Shakespeare maniac her drawings were scary... wonder what made her that way( did she kill the girl turned to the statgue or the white haired guy?) Can't believe the victim was raped by her step father that's the reason why she killed her ? Sick ,sick, sick statue her legs for arms and stomach had that head ugh!! I wanted to barf |
 |
| The start of a new arc! That Oryo girl is the next culprit! Cannot wait for more. |

| there was no action, but still an awesome episode, i like it because it doesnt need action to interest me :P call me stupid, but could someone explain those shakespeare quotes at the end please? xD "kill'd her, for whom my tears have made me blind," got no idea what this means xD I kinda get that at the end she just said that she was going to kill again though? did she kill her to stop her getting raped to conserve her "beauty" or something? |

| pretty interesting episode, and a weird one at that |
| At the end, wasn't the girl drawing the other girl. That girl that sat with the now murdered one in the dining hall and said something like "her eyes are blank". |
 |
Mephz said: At the end, wasn't the girl drawing the other girl. That girl that sat with the now murdered one in the dining hall and said something like "her eyes are blank". No. The girl in the dining hall has a pony tail with blue ribbon while the girl in the drawing has a twin tail. (meaning that the psychopath girl is drawing the dead girl.) Also, the victim wasnt' the other girl in the dining hall either since she has a short black hair. Besides, both girl was being called by the psycopath girl as Kawarazaki and Shinotsuki, while the victim was called Yoshika. |
| Man, this episode had it all; I love how they tied in all the previous cases, both with the main plot and with Kogami past. Gen, oh you. I'm glad he actually went with a slow pace at the begininning, Madoka felt so rushed. Only thing this ep lacked is more future lesbians: I want to see what kind of violent things Yayoi is into. |
| The thing presented to us in the end of this episode is by no means art. If someone were to describe it as art it would probably be one of the most obscene, inhuman pieces known to man. The person who created this thing by all means is not a Michaelangelo nor a Picasso, just a cold blooded murderer that doesn't deserve to see the light of day. But of course the way that art appeared looked to me at first like some holy cross, I don't know if that was some weird twisted way of asking for forgiveness to the Gods or what, but either way I wouldn't want to display that thing at some Church so people could pray to it. |

| well as an artist, I have to agree that statue is quite a beautiful piece of art, however it's ofcourse, in insane way ^^; that's why she's a psycho path. Eventhough, if it's just a mere statue and not a real person, I have to say that's really... awesome. it's not for Church... it's the police symbol/logo, if you look it closer. |
