I have the same worry as you Hpulley, considering Urobochi's fondness of bringing misery to his characters. Either Akane got kidnapped, turned into Sybil, and Ko has to kill her or Akane, after killing Ko, willingly join Sybil to reform the system from the inside. I suspect the latter will happen. Perhaps Akane will realize that unlike the others in Sybil who are essentially megalomaniacs, she can be a force for good in the system. I could see Akane sacrificing herself for the good of mankind. All her friends are dead anyways, killed by Makishima, she doesn't have much tying her down to keep her from offering to join. Something like that is worthy of a 10/10 masterpiece. A unique, unconventional, and logical ending considering Akane personality and all the built up so far. In the OP, Akane was holding the Dominator while Ko was holding a pistol. If that is forshadowing anything, Ko chose freewills and probably died by it, Akane chose the system and survived. I think Akane is the real main lead of the story, Ko and Makishima are supporting leads while other characters are supporting only. |

hpulley said: bakuramariks said: That would be too Madoka-like xD. I think I just got spoiled from watching Madoka lol I'm actually savoring it for the moment until after finishing some light-heart comedy such as Love Live! A heart can only takes so much. It's the same as after watching Phantom: Requiem (also created by Uro), I need some life restoration. Edit: Noted. I did not mind this spoiler at all since if I pretty much have an idea about the plot already. It does not take my enjoyment down one bit. |

| Shoot, sorry, doesn't help you now but I just spoiler tagged my post if you want to edit yours... The show sort of spoils itself in the first five minutes with a greek drama style beginning premonition at the climax, hmm exactly like Psycho Pass again! Yeah, I first watched Madoka in one sitting, in the dark, it was really intense! |

Danielcook said: Wouldnt it be cool if this had 50+ more episodes left and each episode would have been about killing a sibyl brain agent boss, and as it progreses, the villains get stronger and stronger with makishima or Akane (brain form) being the final boss. They brain agents would have different fighting techniques/weaknesses. One could have fire powers, while another could have water powers, or mechanical powers, etc. What's WRONG WITH YOU?! This is a joke, right? Please tell me it is. |

| Shogo's sarcastic remark against Kasei's ideal was indeed an enjoyable segment in this episode. |
| Yeah makishima ftw! I'm glad he killed kasei. But is he really evil? the sibyl system seems to be worse than him. |
| Awesome backstory on the sybil system! |
| ... |
| I don't know why, but IMO Makishima's character is getting better and better.I just knew he will do something to chief, but didnt expect such a brutal kill already. Now at least we know what SS is.Not so unexpected, but yeah, still pretty awesome. 5/5.Wheres Kagari :C |
 |
| This anime's awesome, nothing else to say |
 "Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?" |
| So the Sybil System is kind of like the Borg Collective? Cool! And Makishima is too beastly for words! "Screw being a referee, I wanna play!" GOD DAMN! XD |

| this episode is sick O_O" wow @ those 200+brains, we need more episodes to fight each brains LOL. in the end, who is the bad guy again? -_-" must admit makishima is kinda cool, but sadly he killed akane's friend so he's still bad for me. |

| Good to know Makishima escaped, I also have a feeling he wants Kougami to join his side. |

| The truth comes to light, and as expected somewhat, a seriously messed-up system. Nice explanation. I really like Makishima right now, I knew that he'd reject the offer, and beat up the disgusting woman chief, or man. Either way, it was pretty satisfying watching that. If it were me, I would never want to be reduced to just a brain, and just stay there and judge people, so stupid. Also, poor Kagari. |

| They REALLY killed Kagari? Damn you Kasei Tranny old lady! Makishima finally opened himself. He isn't a hero nor a villain... WIN! @ the end after the credits, Kogami has been playing Slender too much. |
Alone on a Friday night? Remember that DIO did nothing wrong! |
| Is Kasei really dead? if i understood the explanation correctly, Kasei's brain should be at the ministry of welfare, controlling the android wirelessly and the only thing Shogo did was destroy the bot, if the sybil system has more of the bots available, it can just send out another Kasei. |

| Anyone catch the name on the spine of the book Shogou was holding? I think it says The Marquis de Sade. edit: Just threw a screenshot into photoshop and adjusted the exposure. I t is The Marquis de Sade, most likely a collection of his writings and I'm guessing that this story http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justine,_or_the_Misfortunes_of_Virtue is important Also this story Eugénie de Franval which contains this quote "To enlighten mankind and improve its morals is the only lesson which we offer in this story.

| Makishima was insanely awesome this episode. He's such a great antagonist. The way he figured out that he wasn't actually at the HQ and the way he destroyed the chief was so good! Makishima 'appearing' beside Kougami at the end actually gave me the chills lol. Then not long after Kougami gets a call from Makishima. Talk about creepy timing. xD It was great to see the insides of the Sibyl System as well. Last 5 episodes are bound to be fucking epic. Cannot wait! 5/5 |
 |
| Holy shit, the end of the episode left mi literally breathless. Just awesome. Makishima has my full respect after this episode, hands down. |
| The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything. |
| lol,after this episode I cant help it but add Makishima to my fav. The episode was great. |

| Makishima's character design for this episode is imbalance 0.0" The puppet willingly give in his own soul to the puppeteer...and the puppeteer is not a human as well .. I wonder whats' with the sexy girl in the beginning. Is she part of the Sibyl System as well . |

|
| The Sybil System wasn't that impressive, but that's just because we've seen Kagami and the korean guy's reactions. Although the "psychos rulling the world" idea was striking. Psycho-Pass is becoming one hell of a show, I tell you. Who needs moe. |
| awesome episode! crap i even forgot that Makishima is not a main character but he is so awesome neither a hero nor a main ,i wonder how they will end this? by put a rematch Ko + Akane vs Shogo? or Ko + Akane + Shogo vs Sibyl? or Akane vs Ko + Shogo? lol either way,can't wait for next episode! |

| Brilliant writing. Gen has done it again. |
 |
| Oh damn, things take yet another twist. Makishima by all comparisons is an evil guy, with no empathy for others. He wants to continue being evil, it's amazing that I almost sympathize with it in the face of the Sibyl System being revealed as people striving to be god. And the bit after the credits was great, things are really gonna go crazy to close out. |
-Riri- said: Haha, I know what you mean, I used to hate him, but I liked his character in this episode.wow~Makishima is kind of cool in this ep. I m starting to like him more and more now... Those were some surprises in this episode, I sincerely don't have a clue of what will happen in the remaining episodes. |
Currently watching everything that comes out to avoid missing something good... |
| wow did he just kill the chief.. or keeping her brain still alive to show it to Kougami? Awesome episode. |

| damn, makishima was a beast this episode. he killed the sibyl systems only means of actually doing anything now it just comes down to him and kogami |

wilcruz2 said: damn, makishima was a beast this episode. he killed the sibyl systems only means of actually doing anything now it just comes down to him and kogami The Sybil system will not be greatly disturbed by this, he didn't kill anything big... just one brain and one easily replacable artificial body. huntx said: wow did he just kill the chief.. He killed one of the many brains that inhabit "the chief" body, but "the chief" is still "alive". I wouldn't be surprised if they had replacement bodies ready. |
| Woah, this keeps getting more interesting.. And some scenes in this episode kinda remind me of that 2002 movie Minority Report. |
| Another great episode. Makishima and the MC's might end up working together before the end. |

| Well, gender-swapped chief got what he deserved for killing Kagari...even if he was taken out by the next guy I wanted to see dead even more. It's just one plot-twist after another with this series... |
