| ugly episode. |
| Saw that coming from miles away when they introduced Akane's granny. Disappointed with how this season is turning out, it's so predictable, especially with the spoilerific title sequence telegraphing HEY TOGANE IS EVIL. S1 kept us guessing up until the very end when the nature of Sybil became revealed. |
| I wish they hadn't spoilered Kogami's kidnapping. That's the only thing left I want explained lol. |
| THAT NESSUN DORMA THOUGH. :3 |
"Be the change you wish to see in the world."  |
| It's becoming more and more stupid with almost every episode. Why would Sybil want Akane dead? And why they treat that Togame guy like that, even if he is failed attempt in creating criminally asymptomatic person? |
No wonder, dragon with no head must be retarded. |
| Does anyone knows the song that plays at 16:00 and on? That was greatly done. |
| intense and brutal episode, i felt bad for the dog on the start yet to know what coming next... so much blood and body parts :o look like Mika and Akane is broken now, 2 episodes left. |

Gymkata said: Puccini's Nessun Dorma (Turandot) I never cared about Puccini, time to dig into him. Gymkata said: Defilement of a good aria...LOL Yeah, degenerate as fuck but I really liked it in the end. |

Puccini's Nessun Dorma (Turandot) *cringe* Defilement of a good aria...LOL it's like when they're at a loss they throw an aria in and, hell, like sugar it makes everything go down. probably the lyrics make sense but that scene wasn't even that... tense (that wasn't intended :( ) |
| Wow. This is getting a little ununderstandable. But that Nessun Dorma moment was fuckin' great. |

| So Mika lost her mind? What was that applause for?! Can't she just die? I wonder what colour was Akani when she saw her grandma ears. Poor grandma she doesn't deserve that :( |

WhipItGood said: robis798 said: Unneccesary animal violence. Nope. This is shit. Seriously? In first season we had a student slashed to death by mechanical bloodhounds -among other brutality- and this time we had bound and possible mutilated people being burned alive, but no, the puppies is where the limit is? Mwahahahahah..... ... unless you were sarcastic. My apologies, if that's the case. Nope, not sarcastic, and yes puppy violence is the limit. |
 |
| WHAT THE FRIGGITY FRICK THE SCNE POST CREDITS IS NOT OKAY Mika pretty much lost it there...its a surprise her hue is clear though. Her being used by Tougane is really ironic though But the chateau scene was seriously nauseating AND YOU DO NOT HURT AKANE |
| akane pleaseeee. don't let your psycho pass get clouded.. fuck tougane.. hope he'll die in a very brutal way... and i just don't know who the real fuck is that chief of the sibyl anymore.. and grandmaaaa T____T mika, damn.... don't know if i should feel bad for you..or hate you again.. |

fanshii said: robis798 said: Nope, not sarcastic, and yes puppy violence is the limit. real chickens and cows get slaughtered even worse. Well yes, but somehow the violence seems a little bit unnecessary. |

robis798 said: Well yes, but somehow the violence seems a little bit unnecessary. I think its a little late to reflect on which violence is necessary or unnecessary on this anime. I wasn't expecting someone to come here to question it. |
| I have no idea what is going on. |
| Shoot first, think never. |
| On the one hand you have killing puppies, one of the most overdone, basic evil acts. On the other hand there's mutilated people burning alive accompanied by classical music - which comes across as excessively grimdark. This season is bizarre. |

| That ending did it for me. I want Togane dead, as well as the mother. |

Aurioch said: I'll try to answer the questions to the best of my ability. Alfonse said: why exactly is sybil trying to make Akane's hue black? Wouldn't that hurt them in the long run? If she's judged and forced to be an enforcer/dead, then they'd lose an inspector who follows everything that sybil lays out. Or are they trying to figure out if she's criminally asymptomatic so they can add her to her brain collection? Partly yeah, trying to figure out if she's criminally asymptomatic, as her hue is insanely hard to cloud. On the other hand, Sybil and Akane are currently at odds - Akane is still obeying Sybil despite knowing the secret because she knows that there's no other alternative at the moment. If Sybil falls without any kind of replacement, society - which is dependant on Sybil to the point of being unable to exist without it - would completely crumble. Rather than Sybil, i think its Kasei that is trying to taint her. Last season it was revealed that Sybil also wants Akane to oversee with compasion. I somehow think that what Kasei is trying to do is defending her place incognito. Hence, using Togane to do the dirty job. She's trying to taint Akane to prove to the Sybil System is not capable of handling Sybil. Sligneris said: Misako Togane is doing things I can't help but believe Sibyl System itself wouldn't approve of. She clearly went way further than Sibyl System every did - what they sought was their further development and self-preservation, true, but their ultimate goal was always to maintain a peaceful, safe society, nothing more, nothing less. Corrupting competent Inspectors and hurting innocent citizens in order to do that... Sibyl is prides itself for being a reasonable system and what Toganes are doing isn't reasonable. Truly, if Sibyl judging Sibyl means that Sibyl will eliminate Misako Togane, removing her from their system, I'm all for that. Read more at http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1318907&show=200#zSHe0yZiM7pWBoSy.99 Self preservation can also be the key in figuring out her goal. Misako Togane is tryingt o defend her place in the society where she can be considered its God. |

| I now hate Togane and his mother far more than Mika (And that's kind of saying a lot, because I hated Mika for the past few episodes). The fire scene made me almost scream in anger. I'm not kidding, I was very close to screaming towards the end of this episode. |
| my god. |

I wasn't expecting someone to come here to question it. True but the violence was out of place. Not necessary at all to progress Togane's characterization. Felt like a cheap trick by the writing staff for us to hate Togane and show us how ruthless he can be. |
Darkdrone said: True but the violence was out of place. Not necessary at all to progress Togane's characterization. Felt like a cheap trick by the writing staff for us to hate Togane and show us how ruthless he can be. Isn't all the violence scene their own "fanservice" towards their fans? Togane's dog mudering scene is only a small fraction of the gore/horror content japanese culture has to offer like eroguro. I think that one of the reasons they include needless cruelty is to inject some heavy and "dark" ambience, which is something reasonable if we consider this series lack of substance (like the first season had). At least we can enjoy it without thinking too much outside the box in the end. |
| Personally I don't quite understand the fixation with wanting Akane to essentially break. At this point I would assume that Togane and Kamui are in it together. Otherwise what would be the point of both of them trying to break her at the same time. As for Mika, while she was created back in S1, her character has been a focal point of hate for the fanbase. Why? Because the writers made her so, and when the writers had her death in the palm of their hand what do we get? Thunderous applause. Perhaps I exaggerate, and maybe she was doing it do save her own butt. That alone does not redeem a character that is out to throw Akane under the bus. With two episodes left I feel like this season has failed to capture the magic the first season had, 11 episodes just isn't enough time to care this season needed the full 22+. |

Though it would be more correct to call current Kasei "Togane Misaka" as that's the personality that currently inhabits the body of Chief Kasei. Sligneris said: Kasei is just an android body and Sibyl System members swap in and out so... that isn't possible. I honestly doubt it, but I don't anything to back myself out. I think that whichever member takes control of Chief Kasei, that member's personality is reflected through Kasei's body, so Togane Misaka has full control. But that raises the question... if one member goes against the will of the collective, does the collective have means to stop that member. |

When Shuusei Kagari found out the Sybil System's true form and the damage Chief Kasei android? And when Makishima destroyed/killed Chief Kasei which contains the brain/data of Kouzaburou Touma then the other day it was showed that Chief Kasei was just fine? It's obvious that there's a mass produce "Chief Kasei" android which whenever she was destroyed there's always be a replacement with new "brain" who would control it. |
| Haters always gonna hate. |

| Man, I knew by the end of this season I would be at the edge of my seat. This was a very interesting episode but I can't help but wonder how they are going to end this season in just two episodes. |

RealMTL said: Man, I knew by the end of this season I would be at the edge of my seat. This was a very interesting episode but I can't help but wonder how they are going to end this season in just two episodes. This is my conclusions on what would happen in the ending basing the writer's concepts. [spoiler]Kamui's goal was not to destroy Sybil System but only to expose the "rough start" of Sybil System and it was called "Season of Hell" which is the Plain Crash (that he got involved), his experimentation and various accident due to a defective system. And once the Sybil System's "experimentation failures" was been exposed to the public he would stop there making his moves and he would either take a suicide or surrender to the MWPSB/Sybil System Authority (What is the best option?) and of course one of his goals was to expose the "True Form" of Sybil System but as Chief Kasei said they will eventually exposed it to the public by themselves. So after the Sybil System's dark past and true form was revealed to the public, some of them would be against it and will attempt to revolt to stop/crash the system or the others will accept it because every "System" or "Origin" of every Experiment had a "rough start" which includes many failed attempts/experimentation that would most likely being kept as a secret to the public for confidentiality purposes (Top Secret) and it's just like making a drug for a certain virus that would involve testing on animals or worst on humans, and when it failed it would either expose or kept as secret to the public. And hell there's no "Other Option" for their Current System, because they doesn't have other choice they would accept it's dark past and true form. And as for Chief Kasei/Misako Tougane and Sakuya Tougane they would almost likely would be executed or will be put in prison because of their "handling" of their Inspectors which is make the Inspector's hue/Psycho-Pass clouded (color it black) and be demoted as Enforcer or be eliminated/killed. And lastly for Akane, she would somewhat gain confidence to make her on "moves" and have the desire to kill people/criminals to do her job effectively. And for the others, they would have their usual lives as if nothing happens. Then the Story of Psycho-Pass Movie starts from there (with the appearance of Kougami in the near end? a cliffhanger?). You can consider this as a leaked script of the writer because I know what he writes... Just Kidding |
| Haters always gonna hate. |
| still don't understand why people is disappointed on this season (aside from bad animation on previous episode) no kougami? srsly grow up. violence? do you watch season 1 or not? I admit it's rushed and wordy, but it's not worth the hate. |
| Your so-called peaceful world makes me bored, so don't blame me if I destroy all of it. - http://worldinverse.smackjeeves.com |
| Ohhhhhhh goodness. This show just reached a new level for me. Akane's face...They have done such a good job developing her character. The Akane we've seen this season and especially this episode has changed so much but it's believable because she is still very much the same person she was in the beginning- except pretty much all vestiges of childhood are gone. I'm glad Akane didn't totally break. I liked how when they showed her near the end of the episode she had obviously been crying but her head was still in the game & she was thinking clearly. I hope she never fully loses it in this show. I knew they would do something interesting with Mika. A lot of people said she was annoying but that was kind of the point... They were developing her for this role. So at the very end, we see togaine as if he's about to use the Dominator on Akane's grandma... When they fire the Dominator, the police should then know where to go... I wonder where it is they plan to lure Akane to? |
| I actually love this season. It doesn't feel like filler to me and I think it's been well-written for the most part. Continuing a deconstruction story is no easy task because by nature of it being a deconstruction its greatest asset has already been 'used'. The formula that made Psycho Pass Psycho Pass is not easy to repeat. But this season has done it by coming up with another villain that is something similarly morbid to what Sybil was when it was first revealed. So I call good on the writers for keeping up the pace. But I do completely agree with the poor use of violence. Dooropens is spot on, there. The very moment the incident with the old guy in the hospital started, I couldn't take it seriously because it was just trying waaay too hard to be taken seriously. Ep 9 was a bit like that, too, but at least it wasn't so drawn out. The scene with the dog was dumb but lasted all of 30 seconds and that was that, and most of the party being wiped out was obscured. I wish the creators hadn't used violence as a crutch, but IMO the story behind it keeps rolling on well enough to make up for it. |

Mental note to myself: when you want to reduce quote chain but are unsure if you should cut quotes out, put them under spoiler. >.< I see that my cutting away the original quote once again has created a misunderstanding... I know that Chief Kasei is just an android and physical avatar of Sybil. My original "I doubt it" was refering to Sligneris said: cklaighe said: Rather than Sybil, i think its Kasei that is trying to taint her. Last season it was revealed that Sybil also wants Akane to oversee with compasion. I somehow think that what Kasei is trying to do is defending her place incognito.

Kasei is just an android body and Sibyl System members swap in and out so... that isn't possible. , knowing that Sybil members can swap control of Chief Kasei (Android) between themselves and that "Chief Kasei" "gains" personality of the member currently controlling it. |

| Today in : Have Fun Turning into a Psychopath with Kamui - Gore fest. Yaaaay. I shouldn't have eaten while watching the episode, made me sick a little. That mansion really was some sick shit. Come on, just shoot those suffering man and woman. End their misery. Poor Akane, her grandma have been victim of the system she defend. Well, she don't trust the system, but she have no choice to obey. Shimotsuki must have felt like shit when she saw the ear... That post-ED scene. What a little piece of shit that Togane. He really is freaking insane. If Kougami could come back just to shoot him in the face, that would be great. I also hope that Jouji Saiga can turn smug face black. Just put that annoying smile into piece. |
| ยซTime is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.ยป - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| God this anime is so fucking brutal. No.....brutal isn't the right word....it's so........psychological. o-o RIP Akane's Mom? o-o Anyways......what's gonna happen now? Kamui and his henchmen all on that train. |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
| omg I knew he'd kill her grandma T__T Damn Mika's crazy clapping lmao wtf |
