it's less philosophical but one of the MC has fuckin magic power, ruins the show. It's more of a detective thriller show now

The MC always had magic powers dude, see

really....

>quoting shitty authors
no
fuck off

>people read books?
>THIS MAKES ME ANGERY

this is a common misconception, just because urobuchi made Madoka (probably by accident) retards and weebs everywhere are ready to suck his cock

fujoshit

idk man psycho pass 1 was actually good not like madoka

>handsome guys
>f-fujoshit

s3 is neither, it's nowhere near s1 but at the same time not as much of a trainwreck as s2... I'd say watch the 3 sinners of the system movies, they're at least somewhat okay.

I will always share my small french fries with youuuuu

The third season is full-blown fujo-baiting garbage, though.

It will soon be Azusawa's turn to shine.

season 1 set up an interesting premise
i don't remember season 2
season 3 completely shits on the premise as if they didn't even want to use it and the studio forced them because it would sell better than a new ip

Based???... haha

>dude brains lmao
>smart
ok

brains are smart so yea

I've only seen Season 1 and the horribly bad Engrish movie and I wouldn't say it's smart at all. If has an interesting sci-fi premise and a cute main girl but other than that it's pretty basic. The characters constantly name-dropping entry level novels was annoying as hell and bordered on pseudointellectualism at times because instead of making characters seem smart through their actions they just have a meme conversation where they talk about how they like Paperback books and Phillip K. Dick and quote entry level philosophers.

Soo you would be ok with the name-dropping if authors were what 'too-deep for anyone'

well your isn't

n-no way what are you saying?! I'm like really fucking smart!

No, name dropping intentionally obscure authors is also retarded. If you're going to namedrop and quote authors or philosopher it should probably be because those authors and ideas are relevant to the story or for the purposes of character development. Sorry for the shitty examples but off the top of my head Evangelion uses Schopenhauer's Hedgehog dilemma in a good way, it's relevant to Shinji's character and it's not just dropping Schoppy because they want to seem smart. The same for True Detective (the TV show), where you have one of the misanthropic characters quote Ligotti when speaking about humanity and consciousness. They're using philosophers/authors to actually enhance the story, whereas in Psycho Pass it feels like the characters are just namedropping authors all the time and quoting philosophers and speaking about how they like Paperback books because some association between reading and smart people and they can make the characters look smarter if they have a conversation about random authors.

Quoting Shakespeare(looked nice) and listing the books that inspired author to write the thing does seem rather strange. Paperback thing was tryharding indeed but overall i think that talking about Dick makes sense since for example Minority Report is really similar to psycho pass.

>think that talking about Dick makes sense since for example Minority Report is really similar to psycho pass
Which would be fine on its own, if it was just in-universe characters drawing analogies to books it wouldn't have been a problem. It's that it feels like they crafted the main villain and guy protagonist around the idea of "they are smart and so they read books and when having a conversation with each other they must discuss philosophy and books" so it comes across as hamfisted, rather than using literature or philosophy to ground the setting

Literal front-layer quotes are never a correct thing to do. Ever.

what are front-layer quotes?

That's probably the wrong word for it. The quote being the substance of a message is wrong for stylistic and plagiaristic reasons.

It could be done better sure but now that i think about it it was the whole point. Stagnation of a system was confronted by a pretension guy that thought about himself as a messiah that will free the people. Someone with that kind of goal kind of needs this kind of presentation.
Sounds like a defence but thats not the intension here(at least i think so).

I didn't really get that from him, considering the main character engages with him all the time and does basically the same thing he does in namedropping and quoting authors all the time. The way he's portrayed is him being smart, not pretentious.

MC was so retarded, it broke my suspense of disbelief.
It's el-zimbabwe-funny-science-man tier "smart".

It seems that lots of viewers see him as pretentious. And i don't really remember what hhmmh kogami was saying about the books and stuff. Besides how do you portray someone as pretentious without making someone a clown?

by being pretentious when and how you present them without realizing it

My understanding of Akane's retardation is Sybil specific upbringing. Might be just bad character dunno really

Smartest idea, rip off better story

still better than the film desu

Viewers might see him as pretentious (because he is) but he's clearly not meant to be. The entire point of his attachment to Kogami is that they're both 2smart4 the system and they have multiple conversations where they just jerk eachother off over philosophy. Normally if you want to get across that a character is pretentious you'd have other people call out said character, not have the dynamic between the main character and villain be that they're both pretentious fuckwits

I don't know if you are being ironic or not but the key premises are different in both soo yeaaa.

are less-key premises the same?

Well to be fair makishima talks almost exclusively with other pretentious characters and Kogami only brings books while talking with akane i think? Why would maki fanboy criticise him? School girl is a special snowflake and the cyborg guy loves to jerk of to be being better than others so there is that.
And hmmm to be fair the main thing that maki did that lots of people witnessed was the helmet one... Straight forward enough.
Of course the therapist dude is similar to all of them so same thing here.

If every character in the show is pretentious, it probably says a lot about the writing of the show user and less about the characters themselves.

I guess you mean the whole 'government bad' thing? Sure why not.

>dictatorship is bad but it is needed

Yas Forums tier reasoning.

Season 2 was not that bad. I'm not sure why anons hate it so much but every time I ask people think I'm baiting.

>sybil
>bad

You may be right but i was under the impression that most of the people are mentally ill to some degree. hmmmmm i have another thought about this: Since everyone is indoctrinated by the Sibyl those that are seen as pretentious by us are seen by the other characters as smart.
Ehhh i'm thinking to much about it...

How is it different than the minority one? The method is different but the end result is very similar.
Of course those that don't break the law are in favour because why wouldn't they? It does seem tempting to get the sheet with all the things you would be good at.
In some cases. Also really? Yas Forums this Yas Forums that...

sybil's kinda more sneaky but also more fair. It's a large consensus of peers in a closed system and the appropriate end result is early rehabilitation.

Go home akane

Well sybil is different compared to minority one simply because it has more uses. It's not just crime detector.

it totally meets the requirements of "due process" and the people obviously consent.

They both are about arresting people for future crime before they actually commit the crimes. The only difference is ai instead of psychic.
