Review of Psycho-Pass: The Movie

One major problem for non Japanese speakers is that the English subtitles are assigned to specific characters instead of specific languages. So when Akane or Shinya speak "Engrish" you get English subtitles, but when one of the non Japanese characters like Nicholas or Desmond speak Japanese you don't get any subtitles. Because of this I never really understood the motivation of these characters or the lengthy exposition that they gave in Japanese, Desmond was also difficult to understand when he was speaking "Engrish". In the end I didn't feel that I had missed to much that was very important but I would have much preferredfull English subtitles. I've never watched an anime before this that completely lacked subtitles at seemingly important exposition moments.

Besides that major issue the Movie is certainly very good, I would have ranked it a 9, less good then Season 1, the animation isn't as good and neither is the plot, but it is an improvement over Season 2 and a natural progression of the story.
