Leans Progressive
Primary
The film is rated Left-Leaning because its central thesis is a profound critique of a dehumanizing, deterministic surveillance system that sacrifices individual liberty and true justice for perceived societal order, advocating for human agency and moral choice against systemic oppression.
The movie features a diverse cast within its Japanese setting, including prominent female characters, without engaging in explicit race or gender swaps of roles traditionally associated with Western demographics. Its narrative focuses on a critique of an authoritarian system and philosophical themes, rather than explicitly critiquing traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its plot.
Secondary
Psycho-Pass features LGBTQ+ characters whose identities are depicted with dignity and normalcy. Shion and Yayoi's lesbian relationship is portrayed as stable and supportive, while Frederica's bisexuality is mentioned matter-of-factly. Their queer identities are not sources of conflict or negative stereotypes, contributing to an overall positive and affirming portrayal.
The anime series "Psycho-Pass" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a dystopian society, justice, and the nature of humanity, without exploring gender identity through a transsexual lens.
The show features female characters who participate in action sequences, primarily utilizing the Dominator, a specialized firearm. While they engage with male opponents, their victories are consistently achieved through the use of this advanced technological weapon rather than through close-quarters physical combat skills or martial arts.
Psycho-Pass (2012) is an original anime series. It does not adapt characters from prior source material, previous installments, or real-world history, thus no characters exist whose gender could have been swapped.
