Psycho Pass: Inspector Shinya Kogami Volume 2




This is the prequel to the hit anime telivision series, Psycho Pass! which was later published as manga in Japan in serial format. The collection of the original series sold over 380,000 Units in Japan in the first year. Psycho Pass: Inspector Shinya Kogami Volume 1 takes place before the original series. This Sci-Fi Manga is perfect for fans of Blade Runner and Philip K. Dick. We are excited to bring you the next chapter in this beloved anime franchise.

The manga prequel to the acclaimed anime series! The Psycho-Pass made a better future society possible: a universal fitness app that tracks people's emotional health. But when crime becomes rare, it also becomes stranger and more dangerous than ever...and in the 22nd century the only "safe" job for a person on the borderline is as a cop--kept on a virtual leash as they hunt down the criminals they may soon become themselves!

Kogami's team has learned that the hospital where patients have died due to a genetic timer set in them decades ago was a "privileged" residence for the emotionally unfit. In searching for clues, they discover just how their society perfected itself by pushing things into the shadows...and the underground network dedicated to keeping those things alive!

Praise for Psycho Pass: Inspector Shinya Kogami Volume 2

"Makes good use of the dystopian future genre, good foils and parallels throughout. Some neat visuals..."
-- Anime News Network

"All these crimes--and the series itself--are tied together by a puppet master antagonist working behind the scenes. Much like the Moriarty character from BBC's Sherlock, the main villain of Psycho Pass is a "consulting criminal." While he rarely dirties his hands himself, he is the man working in the shadows to supply the murderers with the resources they need to get away with their crimes. In this way he is shown to be brilliant, competent, and more than a little terrifying--despite the ultimate failures of each of his murderous clients."
-- Kotaku

"Psycho Pass is the best crime-thriller-science fiction anime I have watched and will definitely be recommending to others as well as watching again in the future."
-- IGN
