Psycho-Pass takes place in the near future, when it is possible to instantaneously measure and quantify a person's state of mind and personality. This information is recorded and processed, and the term "Psycho-Pass" in the anime's title refers to a standard used to measure an individual's being. The story centers around the "enforcement officer" Shinya Kōgami (Tomokazu Seki) who is tasked with managing crime in such a world.

Funimation Entertainment licensed both Psycho-Pass and Psycho-Pass 2, and is currently streaming the Psycho-Pass "new edit version" as it airs in Japan.

A film is slated for this winter.
