| Very disappointing season it could have been much better. I will give it a 7/10 overall maybe the movie will make up for it. |
 |
| While I wouldn't say it was bad since it definitely had its cool moments (the civilians being shot at, the drones going haywire) and I quite liked the concept of Kamui. I do think the whole story would been a LOT better with Gen Urobuchi as writer like last season, even though he has his problems. 6/10. Hope the movie goes well. |
| yay, ann review is out, chapman never fails to disappoint with her lack of comprehension. |
| The theme of judging a collective entity rather than an individual one was really interesting in the later half of this cour. I never rally liked Kamui or any of the characters, but the themes alone were very interesting. I do wonder what the psycho-pass of Sybil would've been if Togane had pointed her Dominator after Kamui suggested her to do it. When Kamui did it, he explained that due to him being the user it would show as 0, but if Togane did it again, it might've been cloudier. |
WhipItGood said: yay, ann review is out, chapman never fails to disappoint with her lack of comprehension. Chapman's whole shtick and writing style including forum commentary reminds me of one of those batshit crazy right wing newspaper columnists. Its not just her comprehension, shes pretty mmuch just insane and according to her the whole world hates and is constantly trying to demean women at every turn and everything and everyone has a misogynist agenda. "Pay attention to me" is basically the vibe I get. The rest of ANN's reviewers are far from professional and thoughtful but look like bloody Roger Ebert by comparison to her sensationalism and childlike demeanor in forum threads. |
Harrymanhunter said: Terrible episode. I hated the ending. No fucking closure whatsoever. Seriously, fuck. I expected so much and I got so little. Now I'm not looking forward to the movie at all. :/ The first season didn't really have closure either and was extremely open ended. ninjastarforcex said: amare135 said: it means the show is objectively bad and shitThere's people who actually care about MAL ratings? Many shows I really enjoy have mediocre rankings on MAL cause they have no hype, are older or just aren't the sort of thing people fanboy over. MAL ratings mean jack shit basically as far as I'm concerned either objectively or subjectively. |
Dooropens said: The best way to get over this pussy season is to do the same as Mika did at the end. She wasn't that stupid after all i suppose. Quite true. |
| Whenever you correct someone's grammar just remember that nobody likes you. |
| Well at least the ending was good, and by ending I mean the ending OST... Nonsensical season which got worse and worse as it went on. The writer had some good concepts of ideas, but they were executed very poorly. In addition, the writer didn't seem to understand several concepts of the world in Psychopass, which lead to a lot of plot holes. Hopefully the movie will be better. 6/10 |

| Compared to season 1....I was disappointed. I expected a mind blowing finale. Someone got their mind blown (you know who) but I didn't |
| Just waiting y’know...for death. If you also are waiting for sweet death...cool (・u・) My list that has slightly more watched than PTW anime. |
| Awful series both compared to S1 and in it's own right. Riddled with plot holes, asspulls, inconsistent/weak characters and just plain idiotic leaps of logic....it was bad. Why didn't Sakuya explode after Kamui shot him with the dominator? |

| this show got an F on Anime News Network. never seen a show get an F rank http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/psycho-pass-2/episode-11/.82404 |
| Seeing the poll results, it seems everyone has different thoughts about this show. For me, the show was okay, not impressed by the ending (nothing really changed, actually) and the only thing I liked about it is that they showed and made Saiga Jouji contribute in the case. Also Kamui's face right before he died... made me wish that they shouldn't have killed him. SimmianPrime said: Why didn't Sakuya explode after Kamui shot him with the dominator? I agree with this. If I remember correctly, everyone who was shot so far in the series died, even when they were shot in the arms and legs. |

| About half as good as it could have been. |
| Rather uninspired finale to be honest. The first season was much more carefully crafted and I liked the characters more. |

Didn't the person who was taking over different online avatars in Season 1 get shot and only lose an arm? |
| I'm probably going to be in the very small minority here but I was actually surprised by the ending with Mika. Okay, so we know she witnessed her classmates being murdered and holds hatred for latent criminals. She strongly believes anyone who threatens her psycho pass to rise should disappear. She is in denial about the truth of the Sibyl system, desperate to remain a faithful citizen and Inspector by being willing to forget everything, becoming a " new slave" as Tougane commented, as he had been one in the past. On those two points, I am actually REALLY curious to see how Mika's character development changes from here on out. Will her PP rise if she is placed in a situation where she is unable to make the person "disappear"? Or will her PP remain clear as her mind descends to the darkest depths while she brutally murders people in the name of Sibyl and Justice...? Yes, I want to see Mika go insane and even while her hands are covered in blood, she's insisting that "Sibyl is the greatest society! I love Sibyl!" all the while giving a clear as crystal PP. The shock on Akane's face would be a delight to see :) So looking forward to the movie and if they create a third season. |

| This wasn't terrible, but the season as a whole feels like a waste. There wasn't much in terms of progression aside from Sybil getting closer to judging the collective rather than the individual. And even that didn't need an entire season. I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it, but I'm so biased because of my fascination with the world they live in. I'm still mulling it over, but it'll be 5-7 out of 10. I wonder how much this will be referenced in the movie. |

Considering all the tragedy she had to put up, this kind of ending didn't seemed so distant from her. |
| 6/10...started without any expectation even if i think of s1 very highly |

I forgot about that possibility! Wow, if she became an enforcer, that would put an interesting spin on things... for one, I can see her getting even more jealous and angry at Akane for remaining clear despite all the things she has seen and witnessed. I can see her turning into a Tougane-copy but rather than wanting to paint Akane's soul black, she wants to paint her red. I mean, if the OP of Akane's head getting shot (by a gun, it looks like.) isn't a red flag, I don't know what is. Yikes. |

| I like anime. |
| The first half of this episode was so good. Akane was so cool.. .and then it went down after that. Ugh. I needed more Kirito vs. Akane vs. Tougane action. This is nothing compared to season 1. I still hate Mika. I really wanted her to get clouded. Dammin. I wished Yayoi would know the truth... At least Akane was still cool when she asked her color. Dammit...no Kogami... |
 |
| A pretty good season. Akane still have a white psycho pass, all she make is for the law. A lot of people said this end is very bad, but I appreciated this end. All speeches are logical and the collective judgement is a big upgrade of Sibyl. I don't know if there will have another season, but I am looking forward the sequel movie of the first season. 9/10 because I preferred the season 1. |

Why didn't Sakuya explode after Kamui shot him with the dominator? For the same reason that identity thief in S1 survived getting hit the first time. It was a shot to the arm, but it still inflicted serious damage. |

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
eijem said: I still hate Mika. I really wanted her to get clouded. Dammin. I wished Yayoi would know the truth... I don't hate her but I do want to see her get clouded as well :) I wouldn't be surprised if Yayoi already knows...? She seems to give a reason for Mika's absence and narrowed her eyes when Mika suspiciously left her division to seek Tougane. Close to the second half of the season, Mika appears to withdraw from the division's main investigation to investigate different matters (Tougane) and is seen to be sitting idly or standing by herself in the elevator often as opposed to the beginning of the season, where she is seen in the car or elevator with Akane. I don't know if Yayoi is perceptive due to her little character development but I'd like to think she is able to pick up on Mika isolating herself from others. Mika doesn't appear to be a people person much, kinda understandable since she was cooped up in a conservative school where they basically want to keep its student's PP clear by eliminating their access to the "outside world". Oh, and creepy Tougane pulling those twisted smirk faces... yup, I'd be peeing my panties too. |

| Another great season of Psycho Pass! I can't wait to see the movie and the return of Kogami! Overall I enjoyed this season very much! It wasn't as good as the first season but it held its own. 9/10! |
| So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS! |
| Wait... isn't the chief only a vessel controlled by brain from afar? How could they even read cc from her if there's no actual brain in it? I really was looking forward to the finale to prove me wrong, to blow my mind but instead it leaves me a bad taste in my mouth. and Uhh... This collective entity thing... - If Sybil's cc went over 300 that means not all of them are criminally asymptomatic? - Isn't that the only requirement for them to be able to judge? - This made you questioning of all their judgement in the past could be invalid and sybil is just a pointless-retarded system. I thought this collective judgement idea would lead Kamui into his own trap because there's no way those 7 brains of his are all criminally asymptomatic (let just ignore of how they could even functioning and magically became superpower brains with 7 personalities) - To me in S1 Sybil always in grayish zone rather than a straight out, bland villain.(Except when Kasei hacked the dominator and attempted to kill Kougami in front of many witnesses which I thought was really a bad move) Well at least in the very last minutes they came back to their own calm, calculative, emotionless self again. - And talk about the villain, could Tougane be anymore lame? "Shine mother! Shine! Shine bright like a diamond!!!" - I know this is in Ep09 but I couldn't but help to say that.. to me, Mika's clapping scene is the most awkward and painful to watch lol |
| It's an amazing sequel. Wondered why this has low score and people bitching about this series. Just because there's no Kougami?? Also, Shimotsuki Mika is so damn annoying! |

That's not the problem with this season. Many users already pointed out the reason why they don't appreciate it. |
| i felt nothing watching that.. I literally only watched it cause I loved season one so much. This wasn't horrible, but it wasn't good, it was just plain and boring, unlike the first season where I'd actually look forward to what'll happen, in this one I tried so hard to care, and just couldn't give a shit about anything that occurred in this season lol |
 |
| I was shocked to see in the end that tougane is actually a MAMA's boy...some way to ruin a great character and most of all no kougami my main reason why I enjoyed PP series in the first. Let's hope the movie will be near good as PP1 |
 |
| Did anyone notice that at the beginning of the episode, when Akane was talking about that it's true Kamui could have obtained information about her family, her CC on Kamui's Dominator showed 31.5. She then said, "But that applies to the people at the MWPSB as well." Her CC scanning jumped up to 36.5... it jumped up 5 points. I thought that was a nifty touch. From memory, I can't remember if Psycho-Pass had ever shown someone's CC rise while they were speaking. I know they showed Makishima's CC dwindle down to 0 while he was about to kill Akane's friend - to this day, that still remains one of my all time favorite scenes of PP, from the voice-acting down to the tense atmosphere of the scene. |
| Not a bad ending episode but not good either pretty Average like the all season. A bit lack on the quality of the episode, or it is just me :P |
 |
proteinshakes said: I don't understand how the Chief got her head blown off and was magically back at the station like nothing happened. Same thing with kamui , got killed by enforcer and was alive in the next scene. Someone explain to me plz ?? he,s not kamui, i think its the assistant girl of kamui with eye patch :) she wasnt kill way back :) |
| Without Kogami and Makishima it's not the same. S2 is a tryhard season,things were too much forced and for the end it really could have been better |
| very good cyber crime show in the end, nice concepts (鹿矛囲 (Kamui)), nice charas, but sadly the opening spoiled to much. they could have played a little bit more with the charas and the storyline. 11 eps in the end are to short for that many charas. furthermore the show started somehow dark and mysterious (scene in the park, „wc“ paintings), but then often it wasnt like that. it was exciting all the time, though. but the last episode doesnt gave me a well executed conclusion. it was nice, that the villains 鹿矛囲 (Kamui) and 東金 (Tougane) killed each other. a little bit stupid was the cliche classical music piece playing along one of the most important scenes … well, as i said, more episodes for this story and charas would have been better. yes, its hard to surpass a first show where everything is so new and so on. psycho-pass 2 couldnt reach this goal, but it added some good things into the psycho-pass world, i think. ^^ so i give this show a 0,89 (psycho-pass was 0,95). next the movie. cant wait, what will happen there. ^^ |
| Not bad to fill the emptiness until the movie begin. Sadly Kougami only appear as delusion, though. While I think the original PP is better, it's enough to keep me interesting to see the next ep. plus the OP and ED is one of my fav. Final verdict : 8/10 |

money4me247 said: the whole group psycho pass is complete bullshit. they basically already do that with judging people guilty via association slash proximity to crime & increased area stress levels. finally, they never really explained how kamui cleared psycho passes AND technically, kamui should not know enough about the sibyl system to enact his whole grand scheme. the reality of the sibyl system as a collection of brains is top secret & not even the master villain from season 1 or anyone at MWPSB knew the truth. Very good points.And if they start to judge groups, that are not connected through being in one location, it doesn't make any sense. What, they will root out all the people of one profession? |
| Disappointing season all in all. The plot wasn't as thrilling as S1 and Kamui was not a very good antagonist nor was Tougane. |
| One question: where is Kogami? This better be answered in the movie. |
 |
| For me, this was a disappointment. I don't think the series was bad, it's just that its predecessor had set a really high bar that would be too hard to hurdle. My other issues with it are the handling of the side characters whom in my opinion had enormous potential like Kunizuka, Shion and especially Ginoza. And don't even get me started on Mika, who apparently was created out of thin air, without taking into account her developments from season 1. I can't imagine someone who had been through all that happened near her and turn out like this. Say what you want about Urobuchi, but you relieve him of his duties and things take a steep decline. |
