nice actions with the hunter's game but the Makishima part was so tense...
have a feeling Makishima would be just a normal guy in today's world, he is a monster created under Sibyl system, also surprise that his rating dropped to zero! so are we expecting to see Enforcer Tsunemori next?

How does that work exactly? Are you implying that Makishima was *oppressed* into being a monster by being told by the Sybil system that he was psychologically healthy? Excuse me. I'm calling bullshit on that. If your existential angst over being told you're mentally healthy despite some odd thoughts in your head compels you to go become a criminal master mind serial killer...then I'm sorry. The computer was wrong when it assessed you. You WERE a monster to begin with. Makishima is a clever little pretentious shitbag. He'd think of other pretentious pseudo philosophical reasons to go kill people even if he lived in a non Sybil system. His man gripe with the Sybil system seems to be that it DOESN'T recognize him as an innately evil human being.

The direction this series is going towards is hardly a surprise. I'm still enjoying it immensely, however. Especially Akane, she seems down to earth in a manner that it almost realistic . It appears Makishima is going to be a catalyst of sorts for Akane.
So far, I've been enjoying this show the most this season

Aside from that, I don't particularly view Akane as pathetic. The dominator refused to turn on. This is a completely unprecedented thing. Akane just didn't know WHAT to do. Everything that happened went against everything that made sense. When things differ from the norm it's uncomfortable enough, but when things take the norm, eat it up, shit it out, and toss it out of an airplane, it does more to a person than just make them confused. |

I mean, people on this subforum were wondering if the Dominator had a manual override several episodes ago. If we viewers are wondering this, and questioning this, then surely the characters themselves who's lives depend on a functioning Dominator ought to be cognizant of this as well.

No, I am not wrong. You are overstating your argument.

I mean, astronauts are trained on what to do if their instruments go haywire. And there are all kinds of redundancies. Poor Akane wasn't, and there aren't. |

Of course I would especially like an explanation of how it is "obvious", from an in-character point of view. Last edited by Dengar; 2012-12-23 at 19:25. |

Yuki's death is probaly what will lead Akane to start thinking outside the box and going on her own natural instincts though...at least, that's the impression I'm getting with this episode, since it's at the halfway point now.
Wow. It's been a long, long, LONG time since I watched an anime that actually made me think On a more lighter note: I know I can't be the only one seriously getting Ko/Akane vibes more and more...especially when he tried to comfort her in the end despite his own wounds. |

Like the episode where they were in a network-disable factory that completely shuts down the use of the dominator? It's retarded how the weapon is completely unusable without connecting to the system, so all it takes is to shut down/disable the system, even for a few hours, and all the criminals can come out to play. This is why the lack of a manual override is bad.

Regarding the manual override, considering the enforcers are essentially considered "criminals" already, there's a whole can of worms that can be opened if you bypass the safety mechanism. I do wonder if it's possible to knock the gun user unconscious and "force" them to pull the trigger. |

But then, I think that Kanon is right here. The idea is to absolve the police officers from feeling any sort of real culpability over taking the life of a perp. This is good for their psychological wellness, but its also bad for their personal sense of responsibility. Quote:
However, I don't think that Makishima being disappointed in her is hard to understand. I mean, if the same situation unfolds with Kougami in Akane's spot, I'm inclined to think that Kougami puts down the Dominator, uses the shotgun with both hands, and blows Makishima away.

The question which is more important is that this being a Gen show, will he get offed in a manner that utterly crushes and defeats his screwed up views or will he annoyingly, get the last laugh in
