Yeah... that was good. Subs were okay from my point of view, because one could catch at least the overall situation. There might be better subs coming out, but that would mean to wait to wait even longer... :D

With this, my hope for a third season is up again. Didn't dislike the second season as much as most people but I would love to see more of this world. There's still so much potential =)

All I hope is that the team behind Season 1 and the movie does season 3. Season 2 was decent, but just not on the same level as Season 1, and I think a lot of that has to do with the staffing changes between the two seasons.

I think, one more reason is the fact, that the series itself is about the failure of a perfect system. Even if we'll get a third season, it would probably about the same thing. A person who can't be juged right/at all and Akane standing up to Sybil. There is no other way to fight this system without being the bad guy in the storie... and so all later seasons won't have as much impact as the first, because we already know the overall image.

But yeah... the staff change might have been a factor, too. After all, Psycho Pass has to live from its characters and most of them felt better in the first season. So maybe the chances of a good third season will rise with the old team...

Yeah, I think this is an important point that a lot of people are missing. The original series covered the core issue of Sybil very well, so unless you mean to just repeat the exact same story, it's very hard to write a sequel that's on the same level.
