    Fuck.

    They killed Akane's cute friend.

    I'm a bit torn though. I like that people like Makishima exist who in their own minds are so completely sane and justifiable that their pyscho-passes are below 100 now matter what horrible things they aid and abet. On the other hand, I think that it is absurdly cheap and a bit of a cop out that he can have the intent to slit an innocent's throat (and even do it) and still be clean.

    The latter is kind of a load of shit.

    In the Sybil's system, the killing of an innocent should be an auto-fire condition (no trigger pull required), regardless of their psycho-pass.

    edit:
    The system can recognize non-sentient, non-living threats to the operator of the dominator, but it somehow can't recognize the imminent threat to innocent life?

    That's an enormous gaping plot hole. It's next to impossible to justify that level of bullshit, just for drama's sake.

    When developing a system like that, where it weighs a person's life and judges and executes them, you don't just forget to incorporate a thing like that.
