| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- First episode is up on Amazon Prime Japan. About 45+ minutes in length. The OP song is kinda stylish although a downgrade compared to the previous seasons imo. We got the familiar characters back and it didn't take long for an accident to take place. Looks like they didn't waste time getting right into a case that was assumed to be some sort of "accidential death". I guess this season will have some clever criminals considering the culprit was clever enough to organize a crime like this. |
 |
| Like the new inspectors. Arata's personality is refreshing, I'm interested about the past incident that still lingers with him. If this season is on par with the SS cases I'll be pretty happy. |
| I watched episodes 1 and 2 last week, so idk whats going on with the dates... dem brazilian fansubs be getting episodes before amazon oO |
I think I don't know wtf I'm doing. Maybe. Probably. |
| 2nd season girl (she's senpai now) and the megane lady welcome both new main characters of this season. Nakamura-san's character sounds strict, while KajiKaji's character is pure. New "followers", huh. Checking crimes of the civilians via gun... The new criminals walking under them are too free. Mental trace, ability to see the past? w. that ability, KajiKaji found the missing person, who appeared in the beginning that got killed. Is that why he often sleepy? Though sometimes there's a monster appearing beside him. More new characters, namely Mamo's character. They are in different group. Nakamura-san's character is strong, too. Suspecting someone set the accident and photographers... Data hiding under and inside flower vase, w. wife's b-day as password. One of the data related found those suspicious people. Both of them getting scolded for involving in the case too much. Hanazawa-san's character is working in officer now? Both OP are ED are ok. Nojima-san's character working separately. 25:05, too, next. IwaOi-KHRStan said: That's the #0 or the special show where they introduced the basic core and looking back on Psycho-Pass series, and showed first few minutes of the first ep. And Yeah, it was aired on October 17.But i heard there is another Psycho Pass special aired on october 17th, or was it the Psycho pass season 3 episode 1? |

| It was extremely boring but at least animation is pretty good |
 |
| OMG this post is about the ep and not about the subs or whatever !!!!!!!!!! Boring, shitty characters but good art and the same CGI guns This is definitely a new season of psycho pass along with the pros and cons of the previous ones That OP was less annoying than the S1's one |
 |
| Enjoyed it way more than expected. I like the 2 new MCs. I dont think it will be better than the first season but it definitly can be better than second season and the movies. |
 |
| That was unexpectedly good after the disappointment of season two. Interesting setup so far. About the only thing I don't like too much is Arata. He's way too doofy and young for being an Inspector. He would have worked better for me if he'd been an assistant of some sort. At least his special skill and family background makes it a tad more believable. We need more Shion too :-) |

| I was a little bummed out when I realized that we would follow a brand new cast, but the new characters made a good first impression and are already more likeable than Shimotsuki hehe. I still hope that Akane, Yayoi or even Kougami will become the center of attention again once we've explored our newbies, more of this case and the people behind it. I wonder if those people we've seen are also criminally asymptomatic. Dunno if this will come close to S1, but imo we're off to a pretty good start . |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| They mentioned that Akane is an ex-inspector now, I wonder what happened. Shimotsuki is now chief and not an Inspector anymore. |
 |
| This is Psycho-pass in name only...what is this tone even? Not to mention basically murdering Akane's character. Sacrificing peace for justice? Did these writers even watch season 1? They'd better give a very good reason for this, else it's just straight up destroying one of the 2 best characters of the franchise, and throwing out what made the whole Akane/Kougami dynamic good and carried the series in the first place. I'm so shocked right now it's unbelievable. It is very early, true, but right now it looks like just another average, gimmick chasing anime. |
| Since when Tsunemori isnt inspector anymore? Did I miss something? Was it in movies? |
| Sad we saw the narration in the beginning then she was in that jail cell. was it because she knew everything? Also, immigrants in japan. lol |
 |
| wait tf is she imprisoned for lmao, but thats a whole rip. |
| I already love that this season has 45 min episodes.I kinda like the new guys but I’m pretty mixed about Arata’s ability.Also the ed is great. |
''I was dead serious''  |
| Decent start. Kei and new enforcers left a good first impression on me. Though I don't know how to feel about Arata guy yet. Wonder what's that new female enforcer hiding and also what was that incident that got Akane confined. Also, Ginoza seems to be on some special mission? |
| well, i can already tell that this is a lot better than s2. the cast of the enforcers is so much likeable than the previous ones all together. charismatic and interesting. the only issue i find is this new mentalist ability which came out of nowhere. this is some revolutionary ability in detective fiction, but comes off very plot convenient, sadly anyways, i like the change in detective structure, they ACTUALLY DEDUCE THINGS, analyze and examine instead of just pointing their guns at targets and letting thing be decided for them. looking forward to how the story unfolds, there seems to be a lot going on |

| Interesting dialogue, I like the deduction and examination change of investigation. I dig the two new enforcers Arata and Kei, especially Arata. I'm extremely interested into this new ability, they will definitely build on that aspect including more about that wolf figure. It might be connected to his past and "You can do it in practice" might just be a cover up. Overall after the episode, I had more questions than answers, but that's good. It will definitely never better than S1, but right now it's quite good. |

| What. A. Letdown. This is not even Psycho-Pass anymore. Teasing me with a sequel to one of my all-time favorite series and then this? Guess I should've learned my lesson after season 2. I rewatched S1 a few days ago and the difference to this in just the first episode alone is like night and day. It really feels like the scriptwriter just isn't comfortable writing within the confines of the setting that was established in S1. Direction feels off to, everything just seems disconnected/ consecutive scenes don't blend together well. I had a hard time taking my eyes off the monitor throughout my S1 binge, whereas I had to pause this first episode multiple times just to try and get what the fuck was going on. Or just to laugh at some stupid bullshit like the "No Data" cellphone (They even showed this twice. lol) or the cringeworthy "ominous evil conference". |

| Not too bad of a start, Arata seems like he could be a pretty good MC, his "ability" seems kinda cheese though Not really digging the enforcer pairing this season either OP is actually pretty good though. I swear what's with PP OP's and people pointing dominators at each other? |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| I´m moderately optimistic. The beginning was boring but towards the end of the episode both the inspectors and enforcers were showing some personality. The Mind Trace stuff, however, is basically magic and I don´t like it one bit. I can suspend disbelief enough to not question the dominators. But that is supposed to be advanced tech. WTF is the Mind Trace supposed to be? |
| I was pleasantly surprised, thought the 1st episode was pretty good, atmosphere and the cool quirks of the psychopass world were all cool. new cast of characters were interesting and each episode being 45 min was a nice suprise. |
| aren't they tired of repeating the same scene over and over again..... |
| So the plot moves along a completely new direction and a new conspirator. They skipped a lot after the events of Case file 1 so we really need to know how Akane got herself confined. That Akane though!! On the other hand Mika handles the department? She's come a long way now. Still with the things going on and the back deal Ginoza and Mika mention, I think there's a lot in the background. Hope Kougami makes his intro soon enough. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
hopscotchskies said: I guess it's time to accept that season 1 was the start and end of the masterpiece that was Psycho Pass. Season 1 was definitely the wonder but the Case files Series don't disappoint too. |
| When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| Iganatov and Arata are an interesting duo, I want to see more of their skills. I also think Mao is protecting someone close to her from the investigation, judging by the way she hid that card. No Akane on this one, except at the end, and she looks like she's passing the torch to those two. |

| Like season 2, the new characters have kind of weak impressions compared to season 1. S1 had two impressive main characters, Kohgami and Makishima. Both of them were clever and had strong physical, and above all, possessed great charisma. Kohgami was hot and wild and Makishima was ice cold and excessively logical. Without alternatives of those striking characters, it is difficult to make the show attractive like S1. Only the weak point of S1 was that they couldn't come up with the solution for Sibyl system controlled society and it was carried over the sequels and haven't solved yet. Will S3 display the hint for it? I think it's difficult as far as watching this episode. |
| looks like i have to watch several movies before this but season 2 was such trash so i guess im not going to watch this at all. the ruined it for me with season 2...the whole series. |
| It was worse than I was expecting, but maybe it'll get better. The Yuki Kaji character feels completely out of place in a series like this. |
| ah i guess i should watch the movies first before watching this one hopscotchskies said: I'm still laughing at the cargo plane with its magical sucking door that pulls a guy and some huge metal boxes out, but not the out-of-date smartphone that was in his hands. that had me loling too |
