This amazing work of art has a truly amazing story. The first time I watched it on Netlfix, I was mesmerized. There were 3 nights of "What the?! It's 2AM already?!" because of how captivating the story is. I'm really glad it was released as a complete "season". Buying two separate parts was too much and seeing where the first one ended (The main protagonist Akane's first real encounter with the main antagonist, Makishima), I wouldn't have been able to wait to get the second. After the first encounter, that's when the story becomes really intense. I definitely recommend this masterpiece to anyone who loves a good story. P.S. There's A LOT of literary references in the show as well. I believe the first time they show Makishima, he's reading George Orwell's "1984", which perfectly describes Psycho-Pass' version of Japan.

This is a must-watch/must-own for fans of the cyberpunk sub-genre of sci-fi. If like me you waited for a single release of all season one episodes, the wait is over. This season can absolutely standalone and be enjoyed without also getting the (less impressive and unnecessary) second season, or follow-up movie. Both subtitles and English dub are included. The dub is certainly acceptable, but the voice work of the female lead is a bit underwhelming. Also, as is increasingly the case nowadays, you must choose between the English dub OR Japanese with English subtitles on the Blu-ray. This means it is not possible to have the subtitles and English dub running at the same time.

As the title states, this is one of the best anime that has been released in quite some time (even though it is just redone like Fullmetal Brotherhood). While I have not watched all anime that has been released PP comes in with an interesting story and great art that can keep you interested from the first few episodes until the end with only a little lagging in between.
