Psycho-Pass: Mandatory Happiness

In the new future, everyone's mental state and disposition can now be quantified.

Everything from emotional tendencies to criminal behavior are recorded and utilized as a guideline to lead everyone to the good life: not only pursuing happiness, but attaining it. The general term for this value, which determines the morality of an individual's heart and soul, is commonly known as the Psycho-Pass.

Crime Coefficient

One component of this value is the Crime Coefficient, which represents an individual's potential to commit crime. In order to combat those who attempt to disrupt the status quo, detectives work in tandem to maintain peace and order, composed of Enforcers and Inspectors. Enforcers are tasked with apprehending suspects, while Inspectors oversee and command their subordinate colleagues. Because Enforcers possess high Crime Coefficients, they can better understand what makes other criminals tick, allowing them to sniff out suspects and arrest the true perpetrators. Inspectors are needed to provide calm and sound judgment to each case.

The Mission

All members of the MWPSB have to walk a fine line, maintaining their own mental health while facing the worst that society has to offer. With justice in their hearts, the detectives of Division 1 tackle each case, confronting humanity's ugly truths.
