I don't know if people have realized this fact yet..but that goddamn low level writer Tow Ubukata is back at it again for season 3, after he single handedly destroyed the whole franchsise with, what he called, a screenplay for Season 2. The trailer for season 3 seems to have some of his "ideas" from season 2 in it already. So the question I'm asking myself now is: WHY THE F*** DID THEY BRING HIM BACK? Why didn't you just put Makoto Fukami and Ryo Yoshigami in charge? Fukami did his thing with the manga, the movie and two of those case files. Yoshigama did the other case file and also did a descent job although hes pretty new to the scene. So why not at least put only those two skilled (!!) writers in charge if you can' t get the original creator to do it. Why you have to pay an extra, unneccessary salary to a f***ing bum who can't write for sh**? I mean that doesn't make any sense at all. You wanna keep your costs low with the maximum of outcome right? Paying extra for LITERALLY nothing, is bad buissnes. |

There are other writers working in this series and they may be more skilled. Otherwise, people can improve over time. So there is no reasons to freak out in my opinion. Have a peaceful day. |

Lol @ people trying to ignore the obvious facts. OP is dead right, Psycho Pass' writing is what made the first season and ruined the second, and the writer of the third season is the same writer as the second. I am very confident this show's biggest problem will be terrible writing. |

agree^ not sure why everyone else is ignoring that fact that season one was undeniably better than season 2 purely because of the writing and pacing |

So I think it's unlikely it will be worse than season 2. Also, it's not entirely new cast. Akane, Ginoza, Kogami, his chick from the third SS movie, Sugou and Yayoi are all confirmed to be in the show and that makes me believe they will have more focus in the second half when the main plot kicks in after some plot twist or something, while the first half will focus on the stuff we are seeing in the PV. But yeah, there seems to be a lot of new characters which might be good because of the reasons you mentioned. (Quite like their designs btw.) We'll see how it goes. I'm hoping it will help the franchise get up on its feet again. From what I heard SS movies have been good first step in that. This season might be the last chance for the series depending on how it goes. I'm also not putting all my hype into this but I am choosing to stay optimistic. |

He actually can write really good shit, Fafner exodus is one of the best mecha/sci fi anime in the past decade, PP2 was a special disaster and I think people forget that Gen urabuchi still worked on, maybe it would of been as bad with him actually writing the script outright but shit like frakenstein's monster as the main antagonist was still gonna be in there. Not saying 3 is suddenly gonna be amazing, but its got way more going for it as a series than 2 which was pretty much doomed from the get go. |

You have to remember, Season 2 was written with the prospect of the movie already being in production. Season 2 had no room to change the world of Psycho-Pass in a drastic manner due to the plot of the movie already being layed out. Psycho-Pass 2 couldnt do too much to change the status quo. They couldnt bring back Kougami because his role was already written in the movie. They couldnt flesh out any new characters who survived the season because nobody could do anything that might affect the moviies plot. He's written some good stuff before, so I have faith that Season 3 will at least be decent. |

Most fanboys of certain anime especially the popular ones aren't really aware of certain details so they see this (which is the most legitimate reason for concern considering this series' track record) and ot of ignorance their best response is saying the person is "whining" or "trolling" or something so they don't have to confront any point presented since they don't have an actual response and feel insecure about someone having an issue with an anime they like |

I am gonna risk jinxing myself after only 2 episodes, but already season 3 is exponentially better than season 2 was and there is so much more creative control for the writer to do stuff so far. It has its own unique personality and actually feels like a continuation to the stuff before rather than some weird standalone story that doesn't actually affect much like season 2 ended up being. |

Sybil & what happened to Unit One are things that are barely being mentioned, instead we're getting this Bifrost thing out of nowhere and it turns out it's not even going to be explained this season, the plot is deliberately dragged out for the sake of milking the franchise. At this point it's not even Psycho Pass anymore, it's a mediocre detective show with the Psycho Pass brand slapped on it. I am seriously conflicted on whether there's any value in picking up future iterations of the franchise. I hate Tow Ubukata and how he bastardized one of my favorite anime. |
