> Although I don't think he's dead because it was set to paralyse mode when she locked onto him.
The Dominator was set to Non-Lethal Paralyser , but the cyborg/android chief hacked it to Destroy Decomposer - it's the only mode that has all the lights.

I kind of feel like crying.. even thou I read the spoilers and knew what would really happen..but seeing the actual thing, and we also get to know more about Shuusei in this ep too, the way the thinks etc.
The ending really made me sad. and is it just me? I also feel kind of bad for Guseong too, in a way, I think he is kind of cool that he is such genius that he able to hack the Sibyl system, a system that a whole country relied on...now who is going to do the hacking? ( I know we always have Shion but I think she is ply not as genius as Guseong)

well, they could have succeeded if their group didn't split up....

Rarely saw such a perfect episode, really.

I'm pretty sure Kagari is dead:

Kasei changed the mode to Eliminator!

The cyborg-obaachan was clearly forcing it to change into lethal, so yeah he is dead, since he also kinda gave up and let her shoot him though maybe next episode we see what really happened and he actually joked about that and ran for it < but i doubt that. (but I would be happy about it)

As for Kougami vs. Makishima, a really epic fight and we already saw Makishima in action in earlier episode and the fact that he couldn't be shot by the dominator, it was sure to be a fist fight. And an epic one to be precise. I didn't expect him to be taken out by Akane though, at least not that way. Even though I like Makishima beside Kougami the most, I love it when the bad guys get owned and show that are just NOT SO UNTOUCHABLE as they always seem. Also respect to Akane for keeping her cool (well not exactly, she was pretty emotional, ofc, but in the end she didn't become a murderer). Sadly enough that is even in reality and present a rare thing. So it has deserved much respect.
I don't think of Makishima as the main evil in this series, the granny showed it enough. Sybil must be something very creepy and unbelievable, seeing Choe's reaction, as well as Kagari's, it was something that was not expected. I won't go as far as trying to predict or guess what it is. I guess I will let it surprise me. And ofc the granny herself is pretty evil. Choe already told Kagari he's disposable, he was disposed of easily. She didn't really care and it will be easy to hide the truth about his death. All she cares about is sybil and that it stays a secret, that was already obvious in earlier episodes. She's creepy and merciless, I don't think Makishima will stay pure lol not I meant I doubt she won't do anything to him. What I'm curious about is HOW and WHAT. Since letting him disappear would be boring and too soon, we're only at episode 16.
I guess she's pissed off because guys like Makishima pop up one after another and now her dirty little secret is in danger as well, which wasn't the case with the other guy. So I guess she will let out her wrath on him.

Wtf, why do I always write so much? Oh but I wanted to say all that so badly ;w:

They will probably do Kagari's background in the next episode at a funeral or something. I mean, Akane and Kogami do know that he went down to the basement. Yes, he's dead accept it. The Chief overrode the Dominator.

Hopefully it isn't some Minority Report ripoff like someone said. It will probably be something similar though. I can't imagine something being that shocking to see if it wasn't. If it was just machinery it wouldn't be a surprise factor. It was probably some machine that a relative of Makishima worked on or something that uses dead humans of some sort.

I loved the fight between Kougami and Makishima, it was pure awesome, and so well done (though Psycho Pass is well done in general and yeah)

And Akane was amazing for not killing Makishima, even though her feelings and her expression there was filled with so much emotion.

And Kagari, aah, I hope he'll be alright, but ...

They didn't even have a preview dammit. I want the next episode NOW.

It wasn't changed to lethal or non-lethal mode, it was changed to the Decomposer mode that was seen in episode 3.

Remember when Shinya used one to kill a drone? It was that mode.



It doesn't make Kagari any less dead though.

The Chief was a cyborg?! Man, The Sybil System is truly ran by computers.

I give that end props, I thought the whole "OMG" moment was having the Chief show up, and then it turns out she's a damn Terminator. SKYNET!

Nice seeing how we got a glimpse into Kagari's mind about how he felt being used and resented it to some degree. Have a feeling in the back of my mind that Kagari will appear again, alive. I mean, that has to be BS that leads us otherwise to think he did die at the end there.

Now, I wonder why the Chief wants Makishima alive...

The Decomposer works only for dangerous... technology of non organic material. Like those drones and Sengunji's dogs.

Haha, my thoughts exactly towards the end there. Psycho-Pass never fails to blow my mind (pun not intended). There was foreshadowing for what would happen to Kagari, but that was not what I was expecting at all. Though I had a bad feeling about the chief. O__o

Crazy episode with a lot of good action. I honestly have no idea what to expect next. Have to say though, Akane giving Makishima what he had coming to him was probably my favorite part of the entire episode. XD

After seeing this episode i wouldnt be surprised if makishima is seen as a "good guy" by the end of the show because whatever the systems secret was it big enough for the head a robot to keep watch over it ,and dark enough that just it being known would destroy the country.

What everyone must be expecting by now is Sibyl having sleeping people floating inside it, I hope that's not it. I also hope Sibyl won't simply be destroyed and society returns to what it is now. Give us something different, Urobuchi!

And about that old chief... Is she a cyborg or a robot? Why can she control the Dominator like that, is she the point of access to it?

Good point, I admit I glossed over that detail of how she(?) was able to use the Dominator in that area. Perhaps yeah, she was some type of source, hopefully that'll be explained.
Hm, makes me curious of why the use of Dominators is cut off since it's at the heart of the Sybil System.

(EDIT: Wait was it ever specifically stated that it doesn't work on humans? Well since it's in the hands of this lady then she'd probably make it to where it can hurt living things.)

Unless we were trolled and she was actually aiming for something behind Kagari...I can hope right. :c

1. Not sure if she is cyborg or robot.

2. If she's either, her presence there pretty much confirms she oversees the operations and she can probably setup a link to the system directly if needed, and don't have to take roundabout measures.

3. The dominators didn't work because all communications are blocked when you enter the area, dominators need to contact the sybill system and having them even in the same area doesn't make it them exempt from that rule as long as communications are being jammed.

well i think decomposer work on people too if your rewatch ep 3 if decomposer work only on machine why did kagari dodge back then ???
I hope you are right kagari cuz if he died , next will be Old man then Aoi then Gino goldhair and shinya , when it rain it pour when one MC die many follow.

But really first I thought Akane will follow Kagari , damn Kagari dead flag is up when he split up, I keeped yelling "Kagari don't go + he is super doom when i saw red colour on his gun(gun stop working). I think in the end only there is only Akane left .

Two weeks ago I said this show gets better with every episode. A week ago I said this show gets better with every episode. This show gets better with every episode.
My only hope is that the Sibyl system doesn't just end up as a straight up evil villain. I doubt it because in all of Urobachi's work his villains are never "evil" and rather just have a twisted method to do good. I mean look at Kyuubei. But after the ending this episode I have slightly less faith.
Never the less I fault an episode due to the fact it could turn out poorly later in the series so 5/5 episode. Go psycho pass go!!!

Decomposer don't work on people. The gun detected the dangerous drones. Of course Kagari would try to avoid the blast. It could really kill him but it was the drones that set off that mode. After that... run away xD.

I saw it too. Isn't the fact that the chief (robot thing, whatever you want to call her) shot Kagari with the dominator in violation of what Shougo's right hand man said almost right before that? Didn't he say that the dominators couldn't fire under the fourth floor because of the blocking of electromagnetic waves? At least, that's what I heard.

Someone tell me if I'm wrong.

Either way, I liked this episode much more than the last two. Less mindless violence (keyword mindless, there was still a lot of violence) and more... Psycho-Pass. Does that make sense? It just felt like this episode brought back a lot of stuff I initially liked about this series, things that the previous two episodes kind of glossed over, IMO.
And what if all love is an act of bravery?

Could you look me in the eye and say that you are not afraid?

She killed him she actually killed him D:
I knew he was going to die when they spilt up but nooooo I cried
Also props for smiling before dying

Also I guess everyone was right in regards to that old lady being an android

I guess the main question now is what is sibyl system, doesn't seem like just a machine considering the fact those two were so shocked/awed by it's true form... a human mind?

Also Akane running up and whamming Makishima in the head was awesome (it made me laugh), and the way she fought her desire to kill Makishima was just as great too and Kougami dude I know you hate him and shit but like if you kill him you can't interrogate him...

This question was brought up in the last page. Only conclusion so far is that the cyborg/robot has a direct source link with the Dominator to use it.

This was the best episode so far in the entire show. Sh!t got real intense here.

I wasn't expecting the Cihef being an android/robot/cyborg thingy but now I can see how that makes sense. Also for some reason I think that Shogo and Akane are of the same kind as the Chief. Why would she want that pure bastard to be captured rather than killed? This'd also explain why his Psycho-Pass is crystal clear or up to his desire. (Akane could be a hybrid or the most human of the robots. Note her Psycho-Pass and the intelligence. I'm not completely sure because she was bleeding.)

... so basically this show is all robots against humanity? Doesn't noitamina love this trend lately? (Robotics;Notes)

Also I almost threw my laptop when I saw the last scene. I knew it was going to end up in tragedy but still. :C dem feels

If I was going to nitpick about anything it would have been how Kougami/Akane conveniently forgot that Makishima's non-existent psycho-pass would register to anyone near him.
Obviously having put a helmet on Akane would be useless since they were going to be around Makaishima anyway.


but ahhh Kagari was the first to go :/
So much for everyone guessing that it would be Masaoka first.
On the other hand people's suspicions about the old lady not being human were right.

A very good episode. I do agree that Shinya is a complete bad ass especially pullling a german supplex. Its a shame he lost to Shougo.

I do like that Akane interject by bashing Shougo in the head with the helm, It took a lot for her to not give in to her desire for revenge. I respect her character for that.

I knew someone was going to die, since the odd mix up of team members and it was also evident when he went off on his own. He did put up a good fight though.

The next episode is going to be pretty interesting.
