Arabaxus Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 If you follow anime, then you'll know what I'm talking about. If you don't: Synopis: (From: http://myanimelist.net/anime/13601/Psycho-Pass) The series takes place in the near future, when it is possible to instantaneously measure and quantify a person's state of mind and personality. This information is recorded and processed, and the term "Psycho-Pass" refers to a standard used to measure an individual's being. The story centers around the "enforcement officer" Shinya Kougami, who is tasked with managing crime in such a world. In the future, it is possible to quantitatively measure a person's emotions, desires, and every inclination. In this way, it is also possible to measure a person's criminal tendency factor, which is used to judge criminals. This is the story of a team of policemen dedicated to maintaining public order. Some of them work in the Enforcement Division, responsible for the apprehension of criminals, while others belong to the Supervisory Division which oversees their colleagues in Enforcement. So if you're into Psycho Pass and you're already aboard the hype train, fantastic. But if you're not, or just not into anime in general, I still highly recommend you pick up season 1, and then consider coming along the wagon for season 2. This series is particularly great for viewers who may not want to deal with all the inside jokes and subculture references of the anime industry, because it is basically an animated drama, which avoids pretty much any of the generic anime tropes and remains for the most part a serious show. Long story short, if it were not animated and instead a live-action drama, it would probably have the same effect as it has now. Psycho Pass is one of the more serious anime series however, with a huge majority of focus on the idea of the sort of "Big Brother" society represented in their future Japan, alongside a rarely referenced romance subplot. It either invokes thinking about the structure and order or society (or in some cases attempts to), and again, if you're looking for a show to turn your brain off to, this is not what you're looking for. Long story short, if you're all aboard the hype train, fantastic. If you're not, consider joining us. Also as a bonus EGOIST has composed the first season's ending song and is confirmed to compose the second season's with a new track, "Fallen", as well, so expect fantastic end tracks alongside their already superb instrumental soundtracks. Watch Psycho Pass Jesus Christ how many times do I have to tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
