PERFECT, this is how the episodes should keep rolling out.

There is nothing worse than a protagonist without motivation, Kogami officially has it, and for a solid reason as well. Subtle effects of the toll on (main character forget her name) have been showing, and I expect her meeting with her friends and her condition to represent her state, which is a good indicator. There are references and symbolism everywhere, and knowing the writer, that.. piece of art probably has a resemblance to the society that exists in this show. The pace was consistent, and we can already tell the main villain is motivated, he wants to crush the Sibyl system from the inside out. This is a prime example of a lawful evill villain; one of the best kinds, because from his view his objective is just.

-Just to compare where he is in comparison to other villains-



huh? wouldn't that make him chaotic good?

So we learn the reason behind Kougami's demotion. Man after seeing a friend who got brutally killed like that it's no surprise.

That Shakespear girl is pretty nuts. Her idea of art is really fucked up.

The corpse/art may get Kougami into a frenzy if he sees it as more concrete proof of the return of his friend's killer.

With Ginoza's father and Kougami's dream about Sasayama, we're getting some backstories! (^_^)

So Makishima is behind everything.
He's the mastermind of even the latest case which involves Rikako killing her classmates and making them into statues.
He's probably also the mastermind behind the unsolved case which made Kougami a latent criminal with high Criminal Coefficient.

Despite the sick stuff happening, I will continue on!
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Well that was an abrupt ending. From what I get from this episode, there is one guy behind the factory drone incident and the one with the guy stealing the avatars. Kougami thinks his old case that ended with this enforcer dying is related to the current cases. I don't know if that's true. It seems like Makishima, the guy with the white hair, is involved in both cases since they're both connected. Mainly because he was working with the two other people in last case and he was talking to the painting girl in this one.

What a shocking episode! The show is picking up for me. That senpai has a gore fetish, but does beautiful work of displaying it, I grant her that. I wonder how she pull a face one, on an enforcer? I'm thinking sex act, lure him in, drug him up and finally, chop him up!

Interesting, but kind of hard for me to follow.

Now that we know Kougami's past a little bit more, it would seem to me that this will all come full circle back to the case he was working on that caused his demotion.

This new art girl is creepy... ★ 4/5

This was ALOT to try and take in after only being up for half an hour. Note to self to wake up more before tackling Psycho-Pass!

Good stuff as we meet sick-ass Oryo and get further info into the Specimin Case. I enjoy the slow burn feel of the series as they do a decent job of juggling all the characters they have created so far, taking us back to drone worker Kanehara and Akane's two lunch pals Funahara and Minase.

Just kidding. Let's watch the next one!

Well of course it's tied up together. Otherwise it would be a bad filler cases like what happened with Hell Girl.

I somewhat get being able to avoid being detected by scans and such, as there is no stress or anything involved in these crimes, at least not for the ones committing it..

But being able to place a body and tons of roses etc. below a hologram of a public fountain? While it wasn't visible when active, someone still had to transport the body and spent quite some time arranging it.

Maybe they should cut back on hologram use, both public and private..

So, Ginoza has been pretty useless so far.

He's always disagreeing with Kogami and treating him with contempt, yet Kogami's the one doing all the solving and figuring stuff out.

All Ginoza does is ask questions to look like he's doing something xD

So this Makishima guy stalks mentally-ill people and approaches them with the proposition of materializing their wildest and most grotesque fantasies as if it was a deal with the devil. Their motives alone are of some primal obsession with something like revenge and passion but paired with the provided methods and the overall product, these kills are very gruesome and creative.

Seeing someone you know getting killed like that is enough to leave anyone shaken even if their job is to literally blow people up. The whole Specimen Case proved to be too much for Inspector Shinya and that was unfortunate.

Shakespearean Senpai's a loon for art and her twisted art-pieces are proof enough of her savagery. No wonder her eyes had the thousand yard stare all the time.

This is getting more and more interesting as I watch it. I'm interested in knowing how they cheat the Psycho-Pass scanners. Also, this was pretty sick, the way the girl was killed. But by doing so, aren't you basically signing off with the same calling card? That's either pretty dumb, or pretty dang cocky.

Great episode. We got more info regarding Kogamis past and I like how the plot is shaping up.

It was a bit predictable, but I got Dexter vibes which is a good sign :P

It seems that Makishima helped Kanehara too,

What a creppy art Oryo has.

We know more about how Kogami turned into an Enforcer. Sasayama has a grotesque death scene lol

So Kagari,Masaoka,and Kogami are old buddies ,I guess.

Kogami had some wild guess there about the enemy mastermind's goal. I hope this isn't a plot conveninece.

Well art could be wild sometimes, but damn.....

What an episode! I have enjoyed every episode up to this point but this one really landed a hard hook of an ending punch that I cannot wait to see what unfolds next :D

That opening of the incident that haunts Kougami to this day was really well done! We have been getting bits and pieces to a larger conspiracy for several episodes and each individual criminal is a mere ripple caused by the stone tossed by our main villain; by the literature he reads he might be trying to sow chaos in a way to rebel/cripple this system encasing their modern world but we will have to wait and see!

Akane has been growing on me I really liked how she has talents and strengths but still makes mistakes and missteps needing aid from other officers in her department and her facial reactions are so very amusing they can be both hilarious and adorable 🤗

But the true show stopper this episode would have to be Ouryou and her unsettling artwork! Actually her artwork is simply beautifully breathless! I am sure stable minded individuals such as Hannibal Lector and the Cenobites from Hellraiser would recognize it as the true work of art it is ^-^

Poor Yoshika 😢 she had been suffering silently for quite some time and she looked up to Ouryou admired her outer merits and grace she hoped that confiding in her senpai might just help set her free from this private hell she cannot seem to escape from so she could finally find her true smile once more. Ouryou smelled this blood in the air and like a serpent set her sights on her vulnerable art piece. Rest easy now Yoshika I am sorry someone was not able to save you from this fate 😔

Ouryou when she talked about Titus was truly hair raising and severed to foreshadow her artist aesthetic! Speaking of which it seemed like her work of body art is adorned with roses wherever cuts have been made on the body hence the roses on her cut off arms, legs, neck and the ones in her stomach/womb area; I believe the rose in her mouth is meant to signal her tongue has also been cut out. It also appears her legs and arms were swapped and resewn with her legs having a lot of blood rush to them before being put in place and her arms being fully drained of blood and coiled together. Truly bone chilling but one hell of a way to end an episode!
