Unboxing [US]: Psycho-Pass - Season 1: Premium Edition (Blu-ray)

Psycho Pass has arrived and here is the special premium edition that I am able to reveal to everyone.



First of, I know nothing of this show which is a problem but I do know of it's popularity and the people who were behind it all. From the creators of Madoka Magica and the studio behind Ghost in the Shell is proud to present this sci-fi series Psycho Pass! This series follows a group of sisters who are part of the Paper Sisters Detective Agency and they each have the ability to use paper for dozens of things and such the trio solve mysteries together. That's all of what I know since I haven't seen the series yet.


This version I am presenting is the Premium Edition which includes the entire series rather than just the first half like the other LE sets. The Premium brand includes some physical extras and even the show's soundtrack which is a nice bonus. The downside is that folks who like DVDs will not be able to get them with this set since it's only for Blu-ray owners. There has also been some issues with the artbox according to people throughout various forums ranging from scratches on the spine and the artbox not standing straight. My set doesn't have any scratches but the box is slightly leaning to the right but it can be fixed by shoving dozens of boxes on the shelf.

BD Language: English, Japanese
BD Video: 1080p HD Native 16:9 ratio
BD Audio: English Dolby TrueHD 5.1 (2.0 for extras), Japanese Dolby TrueHD 2.0
BD Subtitles: English (Japanese Dub with S.T. & L.), English (Sign Translations and Lyrics)
BD Region: A, B

BD Defects: None, but there are some minor issues with the Artbox which will be fixed by Funimation

Plot:
Brace yourself for a hardboiled, sci-fi thriller from the creator of Madoka Magica and the studio that brought you Ghost in the Shell.

Welcome to a world where just thinking about a crime is enough to make you guilty. Bad intentions can no longer be hidden, and the police know exactly which tainted minds are about to cross over to the wrong side of the law. The great equalizer in the war on thugs is the Dominator, a futuristic weapon that can read minds and assess the risk that a citizen will turn criminal. Cops work in teams made up of Enforcers and Inspectors. Enforcers take out the bad guys, Inspectors stop their partners from going rogue, and the all-powerful Sibyl System keeps a watchful eye on us all. Society is paralyzed by its deepest, darkest desires, and trial by jury has been replaced by the wrath of the Dominator. Welcome to the future. How guilty are you?
