Psycho-Pass

Kogami will hunt him back in the end, but I'll think the old guy will give him a pretty hard time. He's a seasoned hunter, after all.. though the quality of his prey is questionable. Plus, he seems to release those cybernetic dogs instead of doing some real hunting.. so I have no idea where he gets this "thrill" from.

If it was instead the excitement from holding something made from taboo human parts as trophies, that's more believable.

As for the whole guarding-psycho-pass idea, I think it's just Gino's take on things. If it was actually something Inspectors were supposed to keep in mind, it would have been part of the basic training even Akane received. The training modules might have programmed the Inspectors indirectly by explaining that Inspectors are only interested in results but not the how of a crime, but even that's a guess at best.

He's doing it the European aristocrat way. Those are "fox" hounds. They do most of the work, and the "hunter" casually blasts their prey with a crossbow, rifle, or whatever, at the point where the prey is so injured there is no way they could possibly miss. That's exactly what he did to the girl. She was already wounded to the point of helplessness before he ever approached.

It was never real hunting, it is hunting for sport.

Masaoka or Kougami are real hunters. The old cyborg can't compare.

Hmm, indeed. I wrongly thought that the hound ripped the girl's head off last episode, but he did indeed come down to deal the final blow.
