I don't want to get too off topic by talking about Pyschopass in here so I am putting my response in this thread about both series

^I haven't seen PsychoPass and I don't think I will any time soon, so I read the post, and I would like to point out that in Shinsekai yori things are changing by the end, or rather, as Tomiko's successor, Saki is trying to change things. Don't forget, there was 10 years between Squealer's trial and the epilogue. Back then Saki wasn't even a member of the Ethics committee, now she's the leader.

(They never say it outright in the anime that she has succeeded Tomiko, but there's a lovely clue: she's sitting in Tomiko's office.)

Bleaker, yes, but I don't think it's sadder... the anime kept pretty close, they only omitted the info about akki, gouma, and genetics.
