Anyways, it seems that the secrets in Psycho-Pass are much less interesting than I imagined from the last episode. Why do the creators still want to make Makishima the main antagonist? These developments just serve to remind me of better shows and films. Blech.

Makishima is just an ordinary serial killer. In a modern society and governing system he would have been caught long ago. What keeps him going isn't any supernatural ability, but the massive weakness of the inflexible government system and society that have become incapable of dealing with real threats.
Catching or killing Makishima solves nothing. People like him have always existed and always will exist in the future. The point isn't about having a villain to kill, but showing how regressed the artificial and self-contained dystopia has become.
Makishima is not the disease, but the symptom. His ability to run rampant is just a side effect of a government that doesn't work properly.
