Yeah but what if your Psycho-Pass is like 300? Do you just awkwardly wave and leave?

...*snort*
Genius!

I'll be in Narita for one night. It's still a ways to Tokyo, but I might see if I can't get a visit in before I get shipped off to Okayama for a week.

I wonder how "Sybil" will decide who is eligible for enforcement (and who is unnecessary in society's order).
Would be funny if it gave yet-to-be-detected train-molesters a 300+ score Twisted Evil

Still, I loves S2. It WAS flawed.

Very cool feature!

Let's hope the Inspectors/Enforcers are merciful towards those with a clean slate even if their numbers just happen to be above 100. Anime catgrin

I wonder how they "scan" those people. People with clouded color would be pretty embarrassed (or they just can go rampage to cloud it more Twisted Evil )

Everybody's scores above 100.
Wonder if they're like handful US police officers. Twisted Evil

Thirded. Season 2 was so damn entertaining as well as over the top and ridiculous. I wanna see the movie!

I assume it's randomly generated. It'd be an awkward first date though.

"Oh... 300, huh? Uh... bye."

I wonder how people would react if some local TV station stages a false execution by a false police officer, would people just keep walking by? Would people film the whole incident and upload it to youtube? Would people stop going thru the scanner out of fear that their hue would increase and get shoot themselves?

They had something like this at Otakon. They would scan your hue with an iPad and then decide whether you would be an inspector or enforcer (my friend and I agreed it was actually pretty accurate). Then you'd get badges. ^^
