The concept of justice and how it's enforced has evolved in the 22nd century. Japan uses the Sibyl System to determine each citizen's threat level based on their mental state for signs of criminal intent, known as Psycho-Pass. Enforcers uphold the law by subjugating anyone with lethal force who harbors ill-will. Alongside them are Inspectors, jaded individuals granted relative freedom in exchange for carrying out the Inspectors' dirty work. Akane Tsunemori is a young woman who wants to uphold justice but learns that Sibyl System judgments aren't perfect as her fellow Inspectors believe. She struggles with what true justice means and whether it can be achieved through a potentially corrupt system.
An edited version of the series received a rebroadcast starting July 10, 2014. 22 episodes of the original series were combined into eleven 46-minute long episodes with some scenes being slightly extended. Psycho-Pass aired on Fuji Televisions noitaminA block. In the 2013 Newtype Anime Awards it was voted as fourth best title of the year. Its 11th episode was awarded "Best Episode" in the Noitamina 10th anniversary fan vote. It has spawned several video-game spin-offs, a novel series and a manga series as well.
