Review of Psycho-Pass

Psycho-Pass (2012–2019)
6/10
Not as good as GITS
11 August 2020
*please keep in mind that I have only watched season 1.

Psycho-Pass is a Sci-fi Police Anime. It first aired in 2012-2013 and is animated by Production IG.

The anime story was good in the first half but then it got worse in the second half. I would have preferred if the Sibyl system wasn't so prevalent because I did not care about it that much. I definitely would have preferred if it was just about catching criminals and then had some sci-fi undertones. The main villain was quite boring and I was not interested in him. Other then that the story was great.

I didn't like how the screen time was divided among the characters. The inspectors/enforcers screen time wasn't divided fairly and it bothered me. Akane Tsunemori was the main character and she was the focus a little too muvh, in the anime but besides that the characters were well written and were plentiful.

The animation was quite unique. It was very nice looking and was fitting. The backgrounds were amazing and it didn't overshadow the focus. The character designs were all great, especially Akane.

I watched the sub and it was fine. Both OP and ED was really good but I'd prefer only 1 ED/OP but its the norm to put 2 in a 20+ episode anime so that's fine.

In conclusion, I found it entertaining but with some serious problems. I might or might not continue this series in the future. I would recommend this anime to anyone wanting a Sci-Fi crime anime like GITS.
