I know it's the spiritual successor but I'm hesitant to put in the time for an old 2cour unless I know it's going to be worth it. If you liked Lain, you will love Texhnolyze. I like Lain but Texhnolyze is my second most favourite anime ever. It's just on a whole other level. Totally recommended.
Will DL then, thanks for the rec guys .

fun stuff, you have to admire their ability to turn some worthless plot into a profitable anime.

Doesn't look like anyone answered you, but like I said earlier, it is a remake. Not a sequel, and simply an HD release of the original. As such, you don't need to have watched the original to watch 2199.

Maybe he was trolling? He's "I only watch DEEP and MATURE anime for mature people like myself" incarnate.

(I remake might have meant it was like Eva where it's new stuff, though not a sequel).

(I remake might have meant it was like Eva where it's new stuff, though not a sequel). After rereading my post, just to make clear, its both not a sequel and not simply an HD release. Anyway, there are some differences in there, since there is close to 40 years between the original and this one, but they are minor enough.

Anyways the official statement will probably be really vague so people can interpret either way and continue to argue over it.

HOLY FUCK I just finished a psycho pass marathon-- I loved the blade-runner vibe and the audio/visual components were top-notch as well. Anyone know if they are planning on making a sequel/ season 2?

I will be disappointed if they make a sequel. Psycho-Pass shouldn't have one.

I might have cried if that happened. + Show Spoiler +Haha really? That would not have made much sense to me. Unless you mean because she unconsciously acknowledges Squealer as a human being after learning about the bakenezumi or something? Even though, I don't see the point of sacrificing Saki (who's from the start treating them with respect) to save a pile of goo who killed many of her kind, including parents and friends. She can't atone alone for the whole human species' sin and she deserved a bit of happiness at the end. Would have felt more than gratuitous.

+ Show Spoiler [psychopass22] +I know its late but was the lesbian fan service scene REALLY necessary? Not complaining.
Also just started reading Zaregoto. I have missed out. Finished the localized official translation of vol1 and read what is available of vol2. Tried reading the translated doc file, its just not the same so I ordered it. Total came up to be $8 shipped, how so cheap!

Having her die in the end would've made that part pointless. Also, the story was pretty dark already. I think people wanted a happy ending for our main character in the end.

The feeling when you catch up with the translation and it ends at a very interesting moment. ;_;
I think vol. 2 is my favorite so far, prepare to get trolled by Nisioisin.

I watched the first episodes of Psycho-Pass and couldn't stand it. How could a woman who is so hopelessly up the paragon chart manage to become a police inspector? It's so unbelievably good cop that it's more like watching a naive junior high schooler in a police uniform

Uta's just despairing at the prospect of translating a certain character's lines.
And Ii-kun #1 impartial observer.
