I feel so sorry for anybody who missed out on Psycho-Pass in 2012 because it was absolutely[絕對地] brilliant. Likewise， I also feel sorry for anybody who didnt， myself included， because Gen Urobuchi ripped[撕] peoples hearts out.

The series is set in the near future of 2113， in which it is possible to instantaneously[即刻] quantify[量化] a persons state of mind， personality， and probability of committing[犯] a crime， all recorded on an individuals Psycho-Pass. When someones Crime Coefficient[系數(shù)] index[指數(shù)] becomes too high and their Psycho-Pass color darkens， they will be “taken care of” by Inspectors[監(jiān)視官] and their “hunting dogs，” the Enforcers. The Public Safety Bureau[局] uses the system to uphold justice[伸張正義] in the seemingly Utopian[烏托邦的] society.

Before I continue speaking highly of it， let me clarify[澄清]： Psycho-Pass is bloody， violent and disturbing[令人不安的]， and not for the weak-hearted. This anime has cruel scenes， both physically and mentally， and the director joked that he wanted the kids to sustain trauma[創(chuàng)傷] for life after watching it. But that is not why your heart will be ripped out.

Your heart will be ripped out because thats Urobuchis intention. He knows how to write people—realistic， human characters with attributes[特性]， weakness， personal motivations[動(dòng)機(jī)] and incredible development （see： Nobuchika Ginoza）. The audience doesnt suffer because tragic events happen， but because they happen to these characters whom you have grown to know and love and sympathize[同情的] with （see： Nobuchika Ginoza）.

Theres also a lot of talk of human nature， the natures of societies， law and governance[統(tǒng)治]， and the good and evil. Psycho-Pass is not a series to watch if you travel into anime to escape or like to keep your mind turned off. But the complexity[復(fù)雜性]， the scifi[科幻] and crime mystery elements， and the blend of philosophy and literature make it too good to resist. It was the highlight of my week， every week， until the end.

Knowing Urobuchi was in charge of Season One used to have me worried. Knowing Urobuchi has teamed up with Tou Ubukata for the upcoming Season Two makes me very worried. But， at the end of the day， a good story is always worth it. Just bring it on！

對那些在2012年錯(cuò)過了《心理測量者》的人，我真為他們感到難過，因?yàn)檫@是一部非常出色的動(dòng)畫;而對那些沒有錯(cuò)過的人——包括我自己，我同樣為他們感到難過，因?yàn)樘摐Y玄將觀眾的心撕成了碎片。

故事背景設(shè)在不久的將來——在2113年，一個(gè)人的心理狀態(tài)、個(gè)性以及犯罪可能性可以實(shí)現(xiàn)即時(shí)量化，全部體現(xiàn)在每個(gè)人的心理指數(shù)記錄上。一旦有人的犯罪指數(shù)過高，心理色相產(chǎn)生渾濁，監(jiān)視官以及他們的“獵犬”——執(zhí)行官就會(huì)對其作出“凈化”。公安局操控著該系統(tǒng)，為這個(gè)表面上的烏托邦社會(huì)匡扶正義。

在繼續(xù)贊美這部作品之前，我得首先聲明一點(diǎn)：《心理測量者》非常血腥，充滿暴力，還會(huì)令人不安，膽小者不宜觀看。動(dòng)畫中有些畫面無論在肉體上還是精神上都極具殘酷性——導(dǎo)演曾開玩笑說，他希望孩子們在看完這部作品之后留下終生的精神創(chuàng)傷。但這并不是你會(huì)被虐心的理由。

你會(huì)心碎是因?yàn)檎瓶刂@一切的人是虛淵。他很懂得如何寫好人物——這些非常真實(shí)、極具人性的角色都有著各自的特質(zhì)、缺點(diǎn)和動(dòng)機(jī)，并取得了驚人的個(gè)人發(fā)展（例子：宜野座伸元）。觀眾的痛苦不在于悲慘事件的發(fā)生，而在于此等事情是發(fā)生在這些讓你逐漸了解、慢慢傾心并充滿同情的角色身上（例子：宜野座伸元）。

作品中還有大量的評(píng)述探討——關(guān)于人性，關(guān)于社會(huì)、法律及統(tǒng)治的本質(zhì)，關(guān)于善與惡。如果你涉足動(dòng)畫是為了逃避現(xiàn)實(shí)，又或是為了讓腦子放空（輕松一下），那《心理測量者》就不適合你觀看了。其（劇情的）復(fù)雜性，加上各種科幻與罪案解謎成分，以及集結(jié)成一體的哲學(xué)與文學(xué)元素，讓這部作品充滿無法抗拒的魅力。它是我一個(gè)星期里的重頭戲，每周如是，直至故事落幕。

動(dòng)畫第一季時(shí)，聽說虛淵負(fù)責(zé)（腳本）曾經(jīng)讓我有點(diǎn)心塞;第二季快要開播了，聽說虛淵要和沖方丁聯(lián)手合作讓我特別心塞。不過，歸根結(jié)底，只要故事好，一切都是值得的——放馬過來吧！
