The animation was impressive, when the movie began I almost though for a moment it was a live action adaptation. The combat scenes are very impressive, easily as good as anything else I have ever seen. The story arc reminded me a lot of some of the Ghost in the Shell movies, as they were complex and convoluted. This is not a movie where you can turn your brain off. I watched a dubbed version, so I could not tell if the issue was the translation or not, but I suspect the story arc was complex. The character arcs were in character and great. It was really good to see Shinya Kôgami back again, Kôgami and Akane are my favourite characters.

At one stage I though the movies had gone on too long, but that was only for a moment and when they launch he final assault it was intense. Apart from that small period of time, the entire 2 hours seems to fly past in no time. The movie ended in a manner which may me realise the rumours of what happens to Akane was correct and it made sense. I see what the next season of Psyco Pass will be about and I can hardly wait.

This anime was a real surprise to me. I only had minimal interest in watching it, but when I did I was surprised. The first few episodes were average, but by episode 3 I was hooked. Unlike most of my experiences with similar anime's, the episodes just got better and better.

Make sure you watch at least the first three episodes and make sure you watch it on a high quality format, preferably from HIDIVE. If you do you will not be disappointed. The biggest challenge you will have is to pace what you're watching, this series is very easy to binge.

One other advantage I found was the episodes were very re-watchable. I have watched it twice since I watched it originally and enjoyed each watch. I am Atomic!!!

I had low expectations but was surprised how good the first episodes were. I did expect it to drop in quality but I have to admit it's a great TV series right up to its 12th episode. It's not perfect as it's filled with plot holes, but by golly it's entertaining nonetheless.

I suspect one reason why its so good is there are three main story-arcs all compressed into 123 episodes. This means there is almost no fillers and the plot progresses in a brisk manner. You are never bored, although when you are in the last main story-arc you do expect it to be a repeat of the 1st, thus may have less enthusiasm, but they do a reasonable twist at the end.
