| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So we got Division 1 investigating on a cult. I think the episode was alright despite the mysterious origins behind it. Not surprised that the investigators took matter in their own hands as usual again. Fast paced action and decision made a difference. Kinda wonder if this episode is a way build something bigger for the final two episodes. The cliffhangerish ending though. |
 |
| Successfully get in w. the security device given. A place that has 5 beds. A person praying. Also a team of scientist called "doctor" Joining the prayer? One victim... protecting the warehouse w. loads of women (w. loads of crime rate) there. Protecting them. Two religious groups working together (different reasons)? Has the same sticks? A room of lots of containers of bodies. Leading KajiKaji's character to a information place and lol @ going along w. what Suwabe-san's character said. Separate person praying is hologram? Real one is unconscious. Curing way called Eternal white? Getting caught now... and getting questioned. Diamonds found. Sister exchange diamonds for weapons... Bombed person. And sister warned them about the bomb. The place sister was and there's a person. To protect him? That religious guy is that lady in that mysterious group's son?! Another unit Too late for that last bombed person, though. The couple used to get in are bombed. To reveal those outsiders' criminal? So Suwabe-san's character was asked by Nakamura-san's character to stop KajiKaji's character to use mental trace. KajiKaji's character still worried about the missing two, and used mental trace to see one of the bombed guy alive. They also got the wife... 25:15 next. |

| Fuck! It was so obvious, but I hoped it wouldn't come to it. They better save Mai before it's too late*praying* Another very intriguing episode. Mainly build up, but a lot was also cleared. Shit will probably start to go down for real next time. |

| Good episode. Things finally are clear. |
| Motherf... if they kill off Kei, Mao or Maiko next ep I'm going to be pissed |
 |
| Man, don't play with me like this... Mai and Kei have to see each other. If they don't, it will break me. Please... |
| cool ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ |
 |
| Interesting episode. The cult captured Kei and Mao and basically tortured them. That ending tho, they better not kill off Maiko. That'll be too sad. |
 |
| Oh no, please not the sweet wife, she's a civilian and doesn't deserve this at all. |

| Another week, another anime, another victim. Magase Ai strikes again. |
 |
| So hard to keep up with what is happening with the story. Still a lot yet uncovered with the structure of Bifrost. My assumption is that the perpetrators want to create a no-confidence movement against Sybil system and expose their weaknesses. Then, everyone will go riot and Bifrost will come into play as an alternative. I believe Bifrost is the Sybil of underworld at the moment. |
 |
| Cannot wait for the next episode. I do not think anything will happen to the wife... I hope to god nothing does. |
 |
| At this point, it feels like I only watch for the action because I'm too dumb to grasp all the information thrown at me in 45 minutes (it's tiring, ya know). I am so lost in the story that most things don't even make sense to me, like what the heck Bifrost is or what are those people sitting and talking casually on a triangle table. I'm not complaining, though. This season has been much better than season 2 so far, and I'm looking forward to the last 2 episodes. I hope we learn what happened to Akane in those 3 years. I've missed her. Also, there's only one thing I can say about this episode especially after watching the very last scene: "Shitshitshitshitshitshitshit" |

Also, there's only one thing I can say about this episode especially after watching the very last scene: "Shitshitshitshitshitshitshit" Yeah it's quite convoluted at this point especially with that secret cult and that round Bishop. Still no I idea what they are doing it seems like they gamble if Public Safety Bureau is going to solve a case and expending there influence on Japan. But with this pace I really doubt that we will get conclusion in last 2 episodes. I feel the same, the story definitely feels confusing at times since they're trying to cram it into a small number of episodes instead of expanding on it. Also, with 2 episodes left we still don't have a well fleshed out villain yet. The only hint about the villain we have got so far is a vague fox like creature that pops up whenever the MC does the mental trace thingy. The rest of the show was basically the political confrontation between two characters that we have never seen before this season, therefore I have no investment in them whatsoever since they're not already established or developed enough, basically All Might vs shitty Idol THE ELECTION. It's not all just bad things tho, the MCs have good chemistry between them and the hand to hand combat scenes are beautiful to look at, in true Production IG fashion. |
|
Well this now is the crossover we need. Magase Ai is the evangelist we need for this show instead of these lousy villains that don't do the deed. Bunch of incompetent fools. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| Three words to summarize this episode for me: Confused but concerned. |

OGAnime said: NOO DON’T DO THiS!! I hope Kogami is the one who’s infiltrated Heaven’s Leap The fact that everyone is yearning for old characters to have more screen time is honestly depressing, it just goes to show how much better written and established they are compared to the current cast. I think this series is doing itself a huge disservice by not giving the previous cast a bigger role in the story. |
|
| So Sister Shinogi and Auma were just protecting their cause, wow, I didn't think it would turn out this way. Above all, O'Brien is alive, that's a major turnaround. Kei, Mao and Maiko :-( |

| Damn Mai got taken after all, I was hoping she would stay safe but things didn't turn out that way. Kei and Mao was captured too and Kei was brutally tortured. I hope they manage to save all three of them. |

I think this series is doing itself a huge disservice by not giving the previous cast a bigger role in the story. I think that the blonde detective said that some of her men infiltrated Heaven's Leap way before the first division started to investigate on it, so there's a justification if Mao & Kei are saved by other characters. |
mohammad_omari said: so according to Arata the purpose of the bombings is to spotlight crimes against refugees which will mean Japan's indictment for crimes refugees are forced into , which will put Sybil in a bad situation and give Bifrost an advantage Auma,Thereza,and obrien seems to be involved in illegal trafficking and Bifrost are using them and they are disposing of them if they sensed that their plans (bifrost's) are exposed by anyone of those three about Kei and Mao , why she was startled when she heard about Auma's death ? and since she has a relationship with foxes she seemed to have upset them , that's why she is being confined and tortured I think Mao will play a crucial role in this case if she's indeed had a relation with the foxes. And yeah I still don't understand why she seemed shocked to hear about Auma's death. Does she have a some kind of link to him ? |
Moonbladder123 said: So what does Kurisu faked his death mean ? He's trying to deceive Heaven's Leap that he is dead ? And stop whatever Heaven's Leap is planning ? Or is he a bad guy ? And the Heaven's Leap leader is the third inspector for Bifrost right ? As Azusawa kept calling him "Third". Arata explained that the four of 'em knew about the bombings and wanted to stop it but someone exploited their plan and take an advantage of it. So I guess O'brien is a good guy. The bad guys here is I think the Heaven's Leap representative, that white-haired guy who's a "Third" in ranking and working under that woman in Bifrost. |

It's not like I don't understand anything at all. I understand some parts but I end up getting lost many times (but not all times), so I can't help but feel like the story is rushed. It's currently rated 7 in my list (for parts of the story that I understand, for the characters and for the animation), which means it's good, but not very good or amazing but it's definitely better than the last season in my opinion. Even the characters alone are much better than last season's. |

| Since all 5 of those suspects are anti-special-zone it'd make sense for them to work together to expose the crimes of Sybil against immigrants but then why Auma sacrificed himself when O'Brien didn't? At this rate my boy Arata may lose both of his dear friends, hope Kei and Maiko can leave this ordeal unscathed. Also if Kouankyoku flops this case Shizuka Homura's dead meat and Azusawa will probably be a congressman. |
 |
| I'm glad they improved the quality since the last episode. |
| am I the only one wondering why they translate it as “Kurisu O’Brien”, & not “Chris O’Brien” his last name hints at some immigrant relations in his family history. So is he Japanese, half, or a straight immigrant ? |

From what I understand most immigrants are given Japanese names upon acceptation into the country, the same way Kei's first name is Kei not Mikhail. |
| Not watching this episode in my native language made me somehow even more confused about what's going on in this anime |
| So there's one thing that's been confusing me since the beginning of this season... In season one, Makishima's whole plan to bring down the Sybil system was to open up trade in Japan again, breaking their isolation and therefore letting foreigners in, which would eventually make the Sybil system meaningless, because people's hues would end up being affected and whatnot. And everyone knew how much of a real threat that would be, that's why they all rushed to stop him. But now, since the beginning of season three, immigrants coming to Japan is treated as a normal thing, there are systems and administrations in place to welcome them, and people seem to react pretty much like in real life (some welcome it, some are against it, immigrants are afraid of deportation, etc) And I don't get where that change happened? When did the Sybil system decide to open up the country? I don't remember the movies very well, but as far as I know, they were trying to export themselves to other countries, but certainly not willing to let anyone in. Am I missing something, or did the show just forget that immigration was considered a big deal before? ^^' |
| I thought this episode was gonna be more of a crazy one than it was, but still this was an all around solid episode with alot of polish in way of how its twisted the conflict around, its a bit dissapointing to see people are confused about it cause the shows done a pretty damn fantastic job setting up all the players for this case, their positions, and plenty of red herrings to build up the events of this episode. Its definitely not simple but I think calling it convoluted is a pretty big disservice to the past few episodes. This episode has me pretty convinced that Azusawa is the main antagonist of this part not the bifrost guys, it feels like a pretty clear in was just made for the Girl member to be removed from the round-robin table and for Azusawa to slip in or manipulate events further, this kind of makes sense when you look back on just how much more focus he has been given this season so far too but I dont know maybe ill eat my words in the next couple episodes. Speaking of on a more negative turn, it feels like with only 2(4) episodes left theres alot of questions that need answering and not enough time to do it, but part of me is wondering, are we maybe just getting a 2nd split cour? I dont know im probably reading into this a bit much but does anyone else think its a little odd that the episode count always includes a 2nd digit rather than just the singular number, ie 06 instead of just 6. It feels like they have a 2nd half or something where that number will actually go to 10+, but maybe im just being hopeful cause the reality is its far more likley these last 2 episodes are gonna wrap things up and its gonna basically decide the whole series. RedJeanne said: The shift towards more immigration was a gradual thing that happened over time, it doesnt feel like it but keep in mind in universe season 1 with makshima is pushing 8 years ago, alot of events have changed since then, the movie touched upon this stuff lightly since it opened with the issue of black market immigration and sybil attempting to branch out to foreign countries but that failing, 3 is just kind of continuing it and the exploitation of the new Populus, the stuff dealing with it in season 3 has been illustrated to be a bit of a recent thing hence the tensions amongst civilians. Like I dont think they've said a timeframe but it seems like roughly a year or 2 ago that all this stuff really started becoming such a focus so it snot like it forgot it was a big deal in s1, its just more alot of things are shifting in society.So there's one thing that's been confusing me since the beginning of this season... In season one, Makishima's whole plan to bring down the Sybil system was to open up trade in Japan again, breaking their isolation and therefore letting foreigners in, which would eventually make the Sybil system meaningless, because people's hues would end up being affected and whatnot.

I don't remember the movies very well, but as far as I know, they were trying to export themselves to other countries, but certainly not willing to let anyone in. Am I missing something, or did the show just forget that immigration was considered a big deal before? ^^' Though I dont blame you for being lost, Psycho Pass' world-building is messy as shit, season 3 feels like its picking up alot of the legwork to actually explore shit but its still got to tussle with the fact that weve had multiple parts before this that kind of just dropped big worldbuilding details without much context on us like the ever infamous hyper oats from s1 that was kind of just dropped on our asses right at the end despite being the fucking finale of the show.  Granted season 3 has also dropped stuff like what arata's ability is on our heads, so its kind of keeping up the tradition of this series world building just being whatever the fuck it feels like. |
