Set in the near future in a world where a person’s mental state can be viewed as a set of numbers, PSYCHO-PASS is the story of detectives wielding guns called “Dominators” that can see your “crime coefficient”, a number that shows how likely you are to commit a crime, and tracking down “latent criminals” before they can break the law. This original TV anime first began in 2012, was brought back for a second season in 2014, and then had a movie in 2015. Each time, the world of the series grew. And now in 2019, three new movie-length stories are about to begin.
The staff for the original series and movie are coming back to work on this new project. Naoyoshi Shiotani will be the director, and animation production will be done by Production I.G. Ryo, who wrote the official novels PSYCHO-PASS ASYLUM and PSYCHO-PASS GENESIS, will be writing the script for the first movie. The second and third movies will be written by Makoto Fukami, who wrote the scripts for season 1 and the movie.
The three stories are set in Asia and Japan 100 years in the future ? depicting the world’s present, past, and future. Facing these crimes will be Enforcers, whose crime coefficient has gone beyond the legal limits, and Inspectors, elite detectives who were hand-picked by the Sybil System. What do you need to stop a crime before it happens? A hunter’s wisdom, or a hunting dog’s instincts? The cases reveal unexpected truths, and show the world as it really is. The untold missing links of the PSYCHO-PASS story are about to be revealed.
