History WMG / PsychoPass

There are multiple points to this theory : 1) When he and Makishima go to [[spoiler:the NONA Tower to destroy the Sibyl System]], he didn't wear a helmet to mask his Crime Coefficient like their men. 2) [[spoiler:In the Sibyl System Core, when Kasei shoots him with a Dominator, the weapon didn't register his Crime Coefficient at all. Likely because the Sibyl System wants him dead for discovering its secret and wanting to reveal it to the public no matter his Crime Coefficient. And so, it did override Kasei's Dominator normal controls to kill Choe Gu-Sung with 100% probability with the Lethal Eliminator mode, and it does the same with Kagari just after (but with the Destroy Decomposer mode this time). The overriding by the System is supported by the fact that Kagari's Dominator didn't work in the Tower's secret basement but Kasei's does.]]

* Starting to look like this as of Season 3. Akane has been placed in an isolation cell similar to the one that Professor Saiga was confined in, and Mika has now been [[RankUp promoted to be the Chief of the PSB.]]

[[spoiler:Psycho-Pass 2 demonstrated that the technologies that sibyl were based on, such as brain extraction, and the unification of different brains using technology ala the doctor from ''Literature/GulliversTravels'', were patented by the Togane Foundation. And in episode 8, Togane was revealed to be an agent of Sibyl, and his mother is a member of Sibyl itself. It is entirely possible that this mother is the de facto head of Sibyl itself, and Sibyl and its assimilation of sociopaths for processing power may be entirely an experiment in Japan by the Toganes to create the perfect weapon for WorldDomination, and being a MegaCorp, it is also possible that they have relocated their headquarters overseas thus avoiding the totalitarianism that the other Japanese had to deal with.]]

[[spoiler: Judging by TheMovie, Sibyl System is even more efficient and ruthless after it "cleared its hue" by purging the psychotic brains. Furthermore, Sibyl System ''can't'' judge its brains individually even if it judges itself as a collective - they're criminally asymptomatic, remember. And third, it's not bound by VillainsNeverLie and is perfectly capable of screwing the rules whenever it needs to. So my theory is, Sibyl wasn't actually clearing its hue. While it was conducting ThePurge, it was getting rid of Misako Tougane and the other defective brains because they were holding it back, wasting energy on stupid projects like trying to paint Akane black and risking Sibyl's image by trying to bomb civilians, ''not'' fixing its Crime Coefficient. As a side benefit, this also threw Akane off their scent. They know Akane's not stupid, and if they had cleared themselves immediately after adopting the idea of group Psycho-Pass, she would have ''instantly'' smelled a rat; this way, her faith in the Sibyl System remains unshaken and she's still a useful agent.]]

While the UN seems to be incompetent, they ''do'' stand up for the rights of humanity, and from their perspective, the Sibyl system is basically a super-NorthKorea that destroys the innate humanity of humans in order to propagate its own vision of order, and the destroyer of once-loyal UN ally Japan, turning it from the bulwark of liberty against China, into its opposite as a totalitarian nightmare that would make even the Communist Party run for their money. Sibyl only survived due to their drones and Hyper-Oats technology that allowed Japan to be agriculturally-self-sufficient, enabling itself to avoid the crises that eventually destroyed OTL North Korea. As Makishima's plan demonstrates, if Japan's self-sufficiency was destroyed, then the people would revolt against Sibyl. However, the agricultural independence that Sibyl achieved made them independent from the relief goods of the UN, and therefore independent from the UN Declaration of Human Rights. That was why the UN allowed criminals such as Makishima and Kamui to hire foreigners, whom Sibyl cannot recognise, to help them destroy the system, because they know that Sibyl cannot recognise foreigners.

[[WMG: Foreigner criminals such as Choe and the people hired by Kamui were able to enter Japan and subvert the Sibyl System because the primary enemy of the System, and the ones who were responsible for injecting criminal foreigners into Japan, is the UnitedNations.]]

It will likely be Shinya, as that's exactly the type of situation Gen likes to put characters in. But Tomomi is possible as well given his [[TheObiWan Obi-Wan]] like status as a cool old guy mentor who seems to be near his limit. Shinya might survive his shooting somehow though, but Tomomi would probably be KilledOffForReal and cause a HeroicBSOD for Akane.

While this happened of a sort in Season 2, it's implied that [[spoiler: that was more of a rogue decision by Misako Tougane and her son, as noted by the fact that the rest of the collective opted to judge her after Kamui challenged them.]] At the end of that season, Sibyl has more or less appointed Akane to serve as a kind of check and balance on their decisions. But considering their rapidly expanding power in the movie, [[spoiler: especially now that their outpost at Shamballa Float is fully operational and their proxy Chairman Han is on track to win the election]], the System may well decide that Akane's viewpoint will no longer be necessary after all. Also shown in the movie, [[spoiler: Mika Shimotsuki has fully accepted her position as fully devoted to Sibyl, just as Sakuya Tougane predicted in his dying words, to the point where she didn't feel even the slightest shred of guilt at [[ColdBloodedTorture torturing a prisoner to death]] for them.]] All this seems to be leading up to [[spoiler: Mika being the {{Foil}} to Akane, and that the two of them will eventually have a final showdown... especially if Akane ever finds out Mika was directly complicit in the murder of her grandmother.]]

The features already fit pretty well (black hair, green eyes, glasses [[spoiler:at first]]), and their personalities are similar. They are both pretty darn pessimistic, as in Ginoza towards the enforcers and Nozomu to well... everything in sight. It also wouldn't be a stretch to say that practically him and the whole class of 2-F would be immediately put in isolation or even executed for a clouded Psycho-Pass (looking at you, Chiri), as [[spoiler:Ginoza also wound up succumbing to a clouded Psycho-Pass and became an enforcer just like his father.]]

* Euphorics are mostly extinct in Japan; having either fled or been killed/institutionalized. Intensive stress therapy may actually remove the potential to become a Euphoric.

Needless to say, without one of her colleagues whose experience is so valuable to her team, Akane will find herself in a precarious position indeed. This could be a great CharacterDevelopment opportunity for both her and Nobuchika -- his comes full circle when he learns to value people for who they are instead of how high/low their Crime Coefficients are, while she steps up to the plate as the veteran of Division 1.

In both seasons, the BigBad has killed someone important to Akane. In Season 1, it was [[spoiler:Yuki Funehara]]. In Season 2, it was [[spoiler:her grandmother]]. Who has been working with her the longest (other than Yayoi and Shion), has experience in the same position as her, is still alive, and still works at the PSB? Nobuchika. [[spoiler:For bonus points, he will die protecting someone, possibly Akane -- just like Tomomi]].
