I wonder if Masaoka is Gino's father, who was mentioned this episode? I know it sounds outlandish, but i've been getting the father-son vibes from them since episode 3, when Gino had his little tantrum. He sounded so much like an exasperated child, who has been getting the same lecture for years. And I find it pretty strange that Gino, who seems so collected and professional would insult a coworker like that ( i mean "trash" was kinda harsh), if he didn't feel personally affected/insulted/ashamed of Masaoka.

Do you notice that Gino NEVER teams up with either Kougami or Masaoka? He must be running away :)


That's my theory as well since episode 3. Masaoka's reaction, Masaoka calling Ginoza "Nobuchika" when talking to Akane and Kagari's reaction kinda seemed to imply that... but who knows...

Ginoza did team up with Kougami in episode 3 (Ginoza+Kougami+Kunizuka) and they were together in episode 4 (Akane+Ginoza+Kougami+Kagari) - he doesn't avoid him completely. He does avoid Masaoka, though. But yeah, he mostly prefers Kagari and Kunizuka...


As soon as the old woman said "Don't make the same mistake as your father", I thought inmediately of Masaoka. After all, becoming an enforcer is kind of a shameful think to them. Kogami was demoted of his posotion and became an enforcer. Plus, they are considered "trash".


Yup. That line made me think that they're father/son. Though I don't think Urobuchi would go that route because it's a bit cliche.


Nicely picked there. Quite possible since there seems to be some tension between them.

Now wait just a minute, this can't be the first post on a 3 weel old episode of an airing popular show...right?

All I can say about this one is that Ginoza better wake up and be a real detective.

This was the first episode that I felt really showed some depth to the series. There's more going than just crime-fighting, a lot is slowly being built up with the characters which I really like. Hopefully they aren't blown off in anticlimactic ways and everything gets its due attention.

What the fuck. I didn't even think a human body could be contorted into such a shape.

I like how all the girls go gaga over Oryo. I wonder if that one girl that doesn't like her will notice that something is wrong.

Learned a bit more about Shinya. Still curious on what happened during the case.

The real master mind behind everything conducts his killing using proxies. It does not matter who, anyone with intent to kill is provided with necessary tools to fulfill their wishes. It's a pretty good plan to wash your hand off any crimes, but then I still don't see the point for Shougo to do this. I have some theories but let's just wait and see.

this is one of the few times anime or movies put a bad taste in ym mouth by how fucked up something may be, this wasnt violent or graphic but the mere thought of how this death went down and what was done to the body is really messed up in so many ways that it really got to me. Same way it was with that one chapter of goth about the killer that wraped his victims organs and skin around trees as art though that was way more fucked up and way more graphic as it actually showed all the blood and gore

Anyway, if I leave out the *EFFING* creepy scenes, I enjoyed this episode. It felt good to see that some people drink real alcohol and cook real food ^^

The bad guy is trying to break the fictitious idyll, I guess.

So Kougami had his enforcer die under his command and that’s why he’s so adamant about his investigation, even now. Also, inspector Ginoza’s dad was somehow related to the force and made some dire mistake. Should be interesting to see how that plays out.

What a freaking creepy girl! Makishima has already gotten to her and that poor girl was killed. I was seriously getting creeped out and the whole thing reminded me of Dexter.

The subtle interactions between the doctor and that female enforcer about the violent case they were talking about as an allegory for their intimate relationship was hilarious.

That fountain scene is probably the most disturbing thing I've seen in anime in a while now. It was beautifully done, but absolutely fucked up. Beautiful and fucked up :p.

I feel the thing that puts this girl on a whole different level of psycho-bitch is how she doesn't just take pleasure in murder. To her, murder alone isn't enough. It has to be turned into symbolism and art.

I was more surprised there were nipples featured despite it being a drawing.

I am assuming it's another girl mutilating the breasts of the girl into a pile of skin/flesh with blood dried on it?

Ultimately twisting them into a spiral. Am I right on this?
That was one creepy ass drawing.

You could kind of guess what would happen to that girl when her sempai was describing what happened to that other girl in that story. Still, seeing actually happen to an innocent girl like her kinda stunned me a little.
Yeah I agree with AiCon.

Huh, poor Kougami, that was a disturbing dream.

Hmm, so Ginoza's father did some crime...and somehow that makes it more likely that Ginoza will too. You know, because possible science. :p

Rofl I think Kagari should have worried more about Akane drinking all the alcohol herself. I wondered if she'd be different drunk but...nope. She's even more composed. XP

It feels like they were lampshading a trope with that comment about 'troublemaker with a score over 700'. =p And maybe about Akane being in love with Kougami.

Just remembered, what did Akane end up telling Kagari when he asked her for the real reason she joined the Public Safety Bureau?

4/5

Episode cute, but I always feel a lack of bite in the narrative, the plot seems good but I feel as if this setting was not right that they give. Kougami becomes the star of the show, but without that we have given nothing of his past substantial enough to let us pleasure. It seems to me just a pain in the ass sometimes, who dies in the game of getting higher passing them, as for others, to mere extras without any thickness. This is perhaps the thing that I do not like Psycho Pass.
For the rest, the designs are pretty decent, the cases are interesting so far and now it is also presented the hag and the crazy cast!

wow the show keeps getting disturbing as each episode passes by!

poor Sasayama, i could definitely see why Kougami's Psycho-Pass went berserk that day.

i freaking knew the chief of the security bureau is the same voice actor as the President of Japan in Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex as well as the puppet master avatar(Sakakibara, Yoshiko)

so was that Yayoi being the teacher and explaining the Shakespeare story?

Kagari is a great cook! never knew Akane plays video games :D
it seems Kagari can't even drink that much and Akane seems to be an expert on this XD

why do i get a feeling that Yayoi and Shion seems to be lovers? especially in episode 1 and episode 3 where whenever Akane goes to the lab, Yayoi always appear there :P

i knew Ouryou's voice actor is Maaya Sakomoto! instantly heard her angelic voice i knew it was her ^^

it seems here she seems like sadistic person who enjoys dismemberment. poor girl that got dismembered, the workers couldn't even tell if it was real or not? i guess that's one of the jarring things about virtual space. as virtual reality becomes more real no one can tell what is real or not?

her drawings are disturbing as hell!!! it's a shame the dismembered girl's body was censored even in blu ray. not that i mind or anything just pointing it out.

i found it funny on how Maishima's voice actor(Sakurai Takahiro) and Ouryou's voice actor are both from Final Fantasy VII(Cloud and Aerith)
it's even weird seeing Maaya Sakomoto being a sadist here O___O

i can't wait for the next episodes!!

That statue was disturbing... Finally, we see some sordid crime.

So the white-haired guy is back and his goal is to bring chaos.

I wonder how they'll trap the girl, they will probably easily reach back to the college. She'll surely be in hot water soon.

A good episode that gave us some backstory on Shinya and Ginoya, as well as setting us up with the next target, and introducing the chief. It also connected all three cases to the main antagonist. I can see this case causing some serious stress and possibly cloudiness of psycho pass for Akane. 5/5

Geez some how I knew the popular girl would be wrapped up with the bad guy. Isn't that how it always plays out. Well we all know Shinya will kill him in the end, or at least he better!

Poor guys looking at the statue, they have no idea it's real. Next episode they will be investigating it for sure! They'll figure out it was the popular girl and then Shougo will have her killed just like the guy who took over the icon internet people (gosh I can't remember names for anything tonight >.<).

Anyways, I can tell since Akane drank alcohol with Shuusei that she is special in maintaining her psycho-pass level and that it doesn't rise at normal rates like most peoples. I guess that could be to her advantage.
