Psycho-Pass: The Movie

Synopsis

Continues the story of Psycho-Pass 2

In this sequel to the sci-fi psychological drama, Akane Tsunemori continues her duties as an inspector, executing the Sibyl System's judgments. She is joined by new enforcers and Mika Shimotsuki, a dedicated junior inspector who faithfully adheres to Sibyl. As Akane contemplates her responsibilities and starts to question the correctness of Sibyl's decisions, a mysterious threat emerges. An unknown attacker has discovered a method to manipulate the Crime Coefficient, the metric the Sibyl System uses to evaluate mental stability and identify potential criminals. Exploiting this flaw, the assailant commits murder and leaves a cryptic message—"WC?"—written in blood at the scene. Division 01, including Akane, becomes embroiled in a dangerous struggle against this new enemy. They uncover a conspiracy that challenges the validity of the Sibyl System and undermines the very core of Akane's convictions.

In this installment

After the Sibyl System's success in Japan, efforts are made to expand this technology worldwide. The unstable South East Asian Union (SEAUn) agrees to implement the system in Shambala Float, intending to bring order and regulate its citizens. When anti-Sibyl terrorists reach Japan, the Ministry of Welfare's Public Safety Bureau discovers signs that Shinya Kougami, a missing former Enforcer, is supporting them. Because of their past relationship, Akane Tsunemori is sent to SEAUn to apprehend Kougami. But after years apart, their encounter may not go as anticipated.
