《心理测量者》：今天也请尽力“净化色相”吧

I feel so sorry for anybody who missed out on Psycho-Pass in 2012 because it was absolutely[绝对地] brilliant. Likewise， I also feel sorry for anybody who didnt， myself included， because Gen Urobuchi ripped[撕] peoples hearts out.

The series is set in the near future of 2113， in which it is possible to instantaneously[即刻] quantify[量化] a persons state of mind， personality， and probability of committing[犯] a crime， all recorded on an individuals Psycho-Pass. When someones Crime Coefficient[系数] index[指数] becomes too high and their Psycho-Pass color darkens， they will be “taken care of” by Inspectors[监视官] and their “hunting dogs，” the Enforcers. The Public Safety Bureau[局] uses the system to uphold justice[伸张正义] in the seemingly Utopian[乌托邦的] society.

Before I continue speaking highly of it， let me clarify[澄清]： Psycho-Pass is bloody， violent and disturbing[令人不安的]， and not for the weak-hearted. This anime has cruel scenes， both physically and mentally， and the director joked that he wanted the kids to sustain trauma[创伤] for life after watching it. But that is not why your heart will be ripped out.

Your heart will be ripped out because thats Urobuchis intention. He knows how to write people—realistic， human characters with attributes[特性]， weakness， personal motivations[动机] and incredible development （see： Nobuchika Ginoza）. The audience doesnt suffer because tragic events happen， but because they happen to these characters whom you have grown to know and love and sympathize[同情的] with （see： Nobuchika Ginoza）.

Theres also a lot of talk of human nature， the natures of societies， law and governance[统治]， and the good and evil. Psycho-Pass is not a series to watch if you travel into anime to escape or like to keep your mind turned off. But the complexity[复杂性]， the scifi[科幻] and crime mystery elements， and the blend of philosophy and literature make it too good to resist. It was the highlight of my week， every week， until the end.

Knowing Urobuchi was in charge of Season One used to have me worried. Knowing Urobuchi has teamed up with Tou Ubukata for the upcoming Season Two makes me very worried. But， at the end of the day， a good story is always worth it. Just bring it on！

对那些在2012年错过了《心理测量者》的人，我真为他们感到难过，因为这是一部非常出色的动画;而对那些没有错过的人——包括我自己，我同样为他们感到难过，因为虚渊玄将观众的心撕成了碎片。

故事背景设在不久的将来——在2113年，一个人的心理状态、个性以及犯罪可能性可以实现即时量化，全部体现在每个人的心理指数记录上。一旦有人的犯罪指数过高，心理色相产生浑浊，监视官以及他们的“猎犬”——执行官就会对其作出“净化”。公安局操控着该系统，为这个表面上的乌托邦社会匡扶正义。

在继续赞美这部作品之前，我得首先声明一点：《心理测量者》非常血腥，充满暴力，还会令人不安，胆小者不宜观看。动画中有些画面无论在肉体上还是精神上都极具残酷性——导演曾开玩笑说，他希望孩子们在看完这部作品之后留下终生的精神创伤。但这并不是你会被虐心的理由。

你会心碎是因为掌控着这一切的人是虚渊。他很懂得如何写好人物——这些非常真实、极具人性的角色都有着各自的特质、缺点和动机，并取得了惊人的个人发展（例子：宜野座伸元）。观众的痛苦不在于悲惨事件的发生，而在于此等事情是发生在这些让你逐渐了解、慢慢倾心并充满同情的角色身上（例子：宜野座伸元）。

作品中还有大量的评述探讨——关于人性，关于社会、法律及统治的本质，关于善与恶。如果你涉足动画是为了逃避现实，又或是为了让脑子放空（轻松一下），那《心理测量者》就不适合你观看了。其（剧情的）复杂性，加上各种科幻与罪案解谜成分，以及集结成一体的哲学与文学元素，让这部作品充满无法抗拒的魅力。它是我一个星期里的重头戏，每周如是，直至故事落幕。

动画第一季時，听说虚渊负责（脚本）曾经让我有点心塞;第二季快要开播了，听说虚渊要和冲方丁联手合作让我特别心塞。不过，归根结底，只要故事好，一切都是值得的——放马过来吧！
