Enforcers are just dropping like flies this season, wow.

Kamui has five Dominators now. What's he gonna do, make a cannon? And I guess he transplanted Inspector Shisui's eye into himself, but is that really all you need to operate a Dominator? Cause that's some faulty as shit security then.

And I guess Sakuya finally showed his intentions? Kind of lame, I was expecting more.

Come on Psycho Pass 2... I'm more than half way through now and still no Shinya Dx What even is this >.< Akane continues being awesome and Mika continues to be a little bitch. I really dislike her and although things with Sakuya are looking suspicious... I still think he's a good guy. At least I hope he is. But serious. Shinya.
Oh, and I think the first season is was too superb to follow up with this second. The villian is no where near as interesting as Shougo was. And I liked all the characters more in the first season.

It's awesome how Division 3 was wiped out. They deserve it for what they did. Now there's only that one guy left who killed Risa Aoyanagi.

Too many plot holes currently, hopefully they can be rectified as the season progresses.

Just started watching this again after dropping it while it was airing.

Plot holes are just ridiculous. Why isn't there a basic feature in Dominators that would allow Sibyll, or someone suitably high enough in command, to simply remove the authentication privileges that are needed to use the gun? Or you know... have a wireless killswitch signal? Why not some kind of GPS? You can never have too many location data points when a wielder is in distress and sends a message/signal for backup. Think about all the data this would provide for first responders? If the dominators GPS data shows that it isn't hugging their other GPS signals, then it would be safe to assume that they were disarmed and that the first responders would be walking into a hostile situation.

Rational said:
Hmm this inspector chick that's been missing for awhile suddenly has multiple active dominators that are heading in different directions. Maybe we should deactivate them for the time being while we get this shit sorted out... Hello? Is anyone listening to me?

I don't think the people who wield dominators would complain about the addition of a GPS and potential invasion of privacy considering the society they live in LOL. Wasn't there a time in season one where they tracked Kougami's movements through the wall when he was on that train? Was he being tracked via Dominator? Don't Dominators have to have a really strong link to Sibyll's systems in order to achieve their real-time, queue-skipping scans they get to enjoy as sibylls eyes and ears? With such a strong signal required for the transmission of such a high volume of data, it'd be a damn cake walk to follow its movements in a utopia like theirs, where signal/data coverage is damn near %100.
Dominators being an integral part in enforcing the systems values and keeping order would also have access to their own satellites for data transmission if this were a dystopic tyranny worthy of respect.

Is it too much to ask for the device to have GPS or a killswitch when it can analyze situations in real-time and determine if a threat warrants its transformation into "Destroy decomposer" mode?

Really just a glaring empty space of a plot hole that will probably never be addressed because the storyboard staff of the second season lazily write themselves into corners and just put a bunch of gore and pseudo-philosophical garbage on the screen to placate/distract us.

I actually paused the episode in order to write this rant and I already lost interest and feel like dropping the show again for fucks sake. It's just terrible. Oh and that insufferable, spoiled, second-rate cunt of an inspector is a rotten cherry on top of this pile of putrid shit they're trying desperately to pass off as a cake.
I refuse to hide behind the picture of a kawaii 2d girl.

Dominators are useless as always, unless killing the "good" guys lol. So, the writers are trying to tell us that basically killing 2 entire divisons would result in 0 action from Sibilla? They can track dominators but not block them? Everyone can hack military and police servers just like that? LOL. And why the hell Akane would carry that gun all the way if she didn't mean to use it? Plot holes and convinient things happening... I hope they will at least give a proper reason why people blindly follow Kamui

Great episode.

Shisui kinda look like Motoko's outfit in Ghost in the Shell ARISE :P

Shimotsuki as usual being useless as ever. Sometimes by the book is just there for reference and never use for real judgement.

Shou-kun is much more useful than a freaking inspector.

Still how the hell did Kamui managed to hack all of these drones!?!?!

At least Public Safety Bureau can now confirm the existence of Kamui.

Why the hell did Akane saw Kougami in Tougane!?!

So intense, can't wait for the next episode!!

it was less about how great the idea was and more about it being the only choice. there was literally nothing left.

Well, do I have to comment on that?!


no comment it needed to point out how fugly his mom is.

Gov said:
Another major issue I had was that the denominators had actual ammo....like wtf? In the days where holographic technology is available and guns that scan and give a persons information, there is actually limitations on the bullets?

Utterly ridiculous.


ikr, thought the same thing, since when on earth was this introduced before?

i was going to point out that kirito's eyes were heterochromed, and i thought i missed it all this time, but nvm

another annoying ep when tsune doesn't kill people who should be killed. then what was the use of hauling that gun around? i knew she wasn't going to shoot. dang it, tsune, i thought you were more developed than this.

Togane is a better villain than him, that guy is so awesome. I'm more worried about him than Kamui, at least Akane knows Kamui is the enemy.

Kougami was anything but arrogant. Your comment got on my nerves. Better google arrogant's definition before claiming he is.

Since when did Akane started smoking? Not that i have anything against it but still, it just doesn't suit her. And yes, something like that was shown few episodes back.

Also, it seems my speculations about the real villain is more or less right. Only few episodes remain and perhaps then...

Good God! Akane strikes again with her stupidly weak character! You'd think after everything that happened with Makishima and her knowing the true nature of the Sibyl System, she would have actual character development and have the guts to kill Kamui!! The season has been filled with plot holes, stupid characters and desperate attempts to higher the stakes by killing off characters left and right! I miss Makashima and Kougami! Akane is a terrible main character and Kamui's plans only work because of the stupidity of the MWPSB.

Kamui is crazy. If getting the citizen clouded in the end using that game and drones was also part of his plan, that was such a smart move.

Mika is still annoying as ever, makes me want to slap her.

Why doesn't sybil disable the dominator under that inspector and also why does it give access to 2 different dominators in 2 different locations? For a system that calculates crime coefficient it is incredibly stupid.

Also akane hasn't changed even a little bit after the incident with yuki. She knows every single time kamui escapes many people will be killed. But still cowering inside the lines is more important to her. Man even after going through yuki's incident and not changing.

i'm torn between if this episode was the best or had too much plot conveniences.
the tense was good and all, but at the end, it was like the villain wanted them to hack the program down to make psycho pass pollution.
maki is less annoying, but i don't see how she's gonna rise from her.
and akane probably didn't made tougane shoot because he reminded her kougami, and she never wanted him to kill someone.
awful choices with writing that the director somehow fixes along the way. i mean, it's seems to me that kamui's ideology and plans are builded along the episodes and wasn't set in stone. it's only making me wonder loudly if this season really needed.

Garbage the fact sybil can't disable or lock the dominators is beyond idiotic when it happened twice in season 1. Once when Kagari was killed and it was forced into decomposer mode and second when akane asked for sybil to lock it in paralyzer mode despite the psycho pass, sybil had no issue doing that so wtf is going on...this season isnt the worst thing ever considering how bad some anime are, but compared to season 1 its a pile of dung.

So Kamui brainwashed Shisui, and now she's his lover or something? Guess he didn't deem her "free will" important.

Sybil and its creations seem to be more convenient for the antagonists working against it than the people working for it, ironically. The PSB are constantly limited by red tape and protocol, while the villains can actually use Sybil equipment (drones, dominators, etc.) more effectively than Sybil workers themselves can. That's why it's so funny that the antagonists have such disdain for Sybil, since its existence is the only reason they can sate their sadistic urges to begin with. In most other fictional universes, they'd be killed by normal weaponry before they got the chance to do anything.

Akane prevents Kamui getting killed by Togane, which is true to character. Akane is very effective when it comes to preventing anyone from dealing with the antagonist.

Literally, what’s going on, so he wanted to be able to use the dominator gun? And now he’s senselessly killing. 

What a freaking BISH? "I hope it gets clouded", I hope you get killed for your jealousy. Akane hasn’t done anything to you, I’m sorry that she’s more competent than you’ll ever be. 

The was sweet of Hinakawa, he called Akane his older sister.

Tougane is being even more creepy, he’s definitely not part of the good enforcers.

Two thoughts by this point in the season as I rewatch this franchise:

1) Something is off about the premise of this story arc. I don't think this society would allow video games at all, because the risk of clouding psycho pass is too strong.

2) The way women are written in these two seasons is really bad. Both Akane and the new girl are written like they are schoolgirls instead of professional women. Notice how Akane's body language is in both seasons, she can't even hold a gun without her knees pointing inward like she's a little girl. It's pathetic.

This episode was really terrible. Shimotsuki is somehow free to just screw around in headquarters while a gigantic mess where 10+ inspectors/enforcers get gunned down is going on? Yeah, Akane says "don't come" but Shimotsuki has already shown multiple times that she doesn't listen to her and also you'd think someone higher up would say "No, you really should be there".

I also think the amount and scale of the violence is also very bad. Season 1 had people getting turned into flesh sculptures but every death was a societal event. This season dozens of people get slaughtered every episode and it gets hand-waved away with an "area stress warning" and nothing seems to be happening further down. Maybe the Public Safety Bureau will face some reckoning in the remaining 5 episodes but this all seems like stuff that would have caused a gigantic societal level melt-down in Season 1.

And Kamui being able to so easily do all this effectively by himself is not good either. Makishima recruited specialists that allowed him to cause trouble. Kamui can just "hack the ministry" and unleash hell on a whim. I've forgotten if they try to explain it away later but my rating tells me I wasn't satisfied the first time around so I'm not holding my breath.
