History Anime / PsychoPass3FirstInspector

* TheStinger: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cl3Ri0LrQC0 The post-credit scene]], which was never shown in Amazon Prime's international release, [[spoiler:has Homura and Akane meeting Arata and Kei. Then, Akane tells the two Inspectors about the events that had happened two years ago.]] This scene was only available in the Japanese theatrical release, and then later the Japanese Blu-ray release.

* AndTheAdventureContinues: The ending shows [[spoiler:Division One making it out alive with Homura being the new bureau chief after having successfully shutting down Bifrost and Akane released from confinement as a "statutory Enforcer". The Sibyl System seems to have planned to show themselves to the public soon and appoints Arata as an intermediary when the time comes]].

* CruelMercy: During the climax of the movie, [[spoiler:Arata calls out on the Sibyl System for tampering his Dominator in order to force him to lethally enforce Azusawa. After Sibyl reconsiders his request, Azusawa beats up Arata so his crime coefficient would increase and [[SuicideByCop get himself killed]] after finding out that all of his efforts became pointless when Sibyl rejects his offer. However, Arata successfully paralyses him, preventing him from fulfilling his death wish]].

* DemotedToExtra: Most of the original cast- with the exemption of Mika, Shion and Hinakawa - don't have a whole lot of screen time. Poor Sugou probably gets the worst of this, as he gets injured early in the movie and is promptly [[PutOnABus ordered by Frederica to get medical treatment.]] [[spoiler: Even Akane herself only shows up towards the end of the movie after the Sibyl System releases her at Homura's request]].
* DrivenToSuicide: In an interesting example, the movie has [[spoiler: Chief Hosorobi throwing herself off the NONA Tower to deter him from revealing her nature as an android.]] The end result shown is definitely not a pretty picture.
* GoodAllAlong: [[spoiler: Homura is revealed to be working with Sibyl - and by extension the PSB - all this time.]]
* HighTurnoverRate: [[spoiler: Division 2 gets completely wiped out ([[RedshirtArmy again]]) by the Pathfinder mercenaries. In the ending, Karanomori is discharged from the Bureau due to her decreasing Psycho-Pass and is free to live as a normal civilian. Meanwhile, Tsunemori is released from isolation and reassigned as a "statutory Enforcer." The Bureau Chief position, which is empty due to the "death" of Chief Hosorobi, goes to Homura Shizuka as Sibyl opts to put a real human in charge instead of another cybernetic avatar.]]

* InternalReveal: Near the end of the movie, [[spoiler:Arata is surprised to find out that Mika also knows about the Sibyl System being composed of criminally asymptomatic brains which she already found out about back in Season 2. Mika brushes off his reaction, saying that it's a long story]].
* JurisdictionFriction: While the MFA and PSB do work fine with each other during the first two parts, the third part throws the partnership out the window as Hanashiro [[spoiler: orders the release of Azusawa in exchange for information on the whereabouts of the remaining Peacebreakers.]] Obviously, Mika is having none of it and calls Arata to arrest Azusawa.
** A milder variant when it comes to Kougami. Obviously both Kougami and the PSB want to bring Azusawa to justice, but Kougami wants to arrest Azusawa himself instead of letting Arata do it. Kei stalls for time by getting into a scuffle with Kougami, which he might've deliberately lost.

** Arata [[spoiler:is actually the very first character to learn about the Sibyl System's true identity way before Makishima, Akane and Mika. In fact, his late father brought him to the main hub when he was a little boy and told him that he might join the Sibyl System soon. But Arata chose to live as a normal person instead which his father respected]].
** Homura [[spoiler:is actually working with the Sibyl System all along and infiltrates Bifrost in order to destroy it from within]].
** Bifrost [[spoiler:is actually a group of programmers who were the Sibyl System's debuggers when it was still in the early stages of development, and the Roundrobin AI was the actual debugging program being used. It ended up becoming its own entity where it could exploit Sibyl's vulnerabilities when the Bifrost members decided to use Roundrobin to make money. Their hideout and by extension, the Roundrobin system, is also located in Nona Tower where the Sibyl System mainframe is. This allows easy access for Sibyl to take over Roundrobin after Homura wins the game]].

** Karina and Arata have some cute moments together near the end of the movie, with Karina acting as {{Tsundere}} as ever. On a bigger note, [[spoiler: On top of Karina's cologne being used by Arata to get Shion and her to his location.]]
** Kougami and Akane get this big time after he [[spoiler: picks her up from confinement. The first thing she asks him is to take her out to lunch.]]
** It's more subdued compared to the top examples, but Irie and Mao get some of this when he reveals that [[spoiler: he got her a music box for her birthday. She keeps it on her desk as a sign of gratitude.]] Mao also saves Irie from [[spoiler: drowning when he gets electrocuted by the robot he was just fighting.]]

* TheStinger: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cl3Ri0LrQC0 The post-credit scene]], which was never shown in Amazon Prime's international release, [[spoiler:has Homura and Akane meeting Arata and Kei. Then, Akane tells the two Inspectors about the events that had happened two years ago]]. This scene was only available in the Japanese theatrical release, and then later the Japanese Blu-ray release.
* SurprisinglyHappyEnding: ''First Inspector'' ends with [[spoiler:Akane getting out of prison with a new position and reuniting with Kougami. Yayoi recovers from her injuries and moves in with Shion. Division 1 make it out alive with Homura being the new PSB chief and Bifrost dismantled with Azusawa and Obata arrested]]. A rare feat in the franchise given the [[BittersweetEnding Bittersweet Endings]] from the previous seasons.
* WhamEpisode: [[spoiler: The third part reveals that Arata was one of the first characters to know about the Sibyl System, way before Mika, Akane, Homura, and Azusawa knew.]]

* DemotedToExtra: Most of the original cast- with the exemption of Mika, Shion and Hinakawa - don't have a whole lot of screen time. [[spoiler:Akane herself only shows up towards the end of the movie after the Sibyl System released her at Homura's request]].
* DrivenToSuicide: In an interesting example, the movie has [[spoiler: Chief Hosorogi throwing herself off the NONA Tower to deter him from revealing her nature as an android.]] The end result shown is definitely not an appealing picture.

* ImmediateSequel: ''First Inspector'' continues Season 3 quite literally the next second after Episode 8's ending, which is noteworthy since every ''Psycho-Pass'' movie occurs after a significant timeskip. In fact, it may be more accurate to say that ''First Inspector'' is actually Episodes 9, 10, and 11 of Season 3.
* InternalReveal: Near the end of the movie, [[spoiler:Arata is surprised to find out that Mika also knows about the Sibyl System being composed of criminally asymptomatic brains which she already found out back in Season 2. Mika brushes off his reaction, saying that it's a long story]].

It ended up becoming its own entity where it could exploit Sibyl's vulnerabilities when the Bifrost members decided to use the Roundrobin to make money. Their hideout and by extension, the Roundrobin system, is also located in the Nona tower where the Sibyl System mainframe is. This allows easy access for Sibyl to takeover the Roundrobin after Homura won the game]].
* ShaggyDogStory: [[spoiler:All of Azusawa's efforts to take over the PSB headquarters and go to the NONA Tower where the mainframe of Sibyl System is located so he can join them becomes pointless after Sibyl rejects his offer]].

** Karina and Arata have some cute moments together near the end of the movie, with Karina acting as {{Tsundere}} as ever. On a bigger note, [[spoiler: Karina's cologne was used by Arata to get Shion and her to his location.]]

* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: A Dominator shotgun prototype gets used by Tenma after most of the Dominators are destroyed. It's pretty effective too, being able to scan and take out multiple people in a single shot. The only downside of it is that it needs to charge every time a shot is fired by changing batteries or finding and using a docking station. It also lacks a Destroy Decomposer mode (making it ineffective against drones) because it would cause way too much collateral damage.
* SequelHook: The movie still left a lot of loose ends such as what led to Akane's confinement by Sibyl's orders and what really happened to Akira Ignatov and Atsushi Shindo.

It also lacks a Destroy Decomposer mode (making it ineffective against drones) because it would cause way too much collateral damage.

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: [[spoiler:The Sibyl System, of all people, roasts Azusawa for his arrogance and his ignorance of criminally asymptomatic individuals after he offered to join them. They bluntly reject his offer and call him a "self-righteous game enthusiast" because he never understands what criminally asymptomatic means]].

* ShaggyDogStory: [[spoiler:All of Azusawa's efforts to take over the PSB headquarters and go to the Nona tower where the mainframe of Sibyl System is located, so he can join them becomes pointless after Sibyl rejects his offer]].

* BadassCrew: While Division 1 has always been badass, the movie shows how truly awesome the new Division 1 is. They show flawless teamwork with each other even when they are separated within the NONA tower and have some really kickass takedowns. Hell, even Shion and Karina get in on the action.

** A milder variant when it comes to Kougami. Obviously both Kougami and the PSB want to bring Azusawa to justice, but Kougami wants to arrest Azusawa himself instead of letting Arata have it. Kei stalls for time by getting into a mini scuffle with Kougami, which he might've deliberately lost.

** [[spoiler: Ma-Karina, Governor Karina AI double, is used by Shizuka to expose Shirogane's AI double. That reveal leads to Shirogane's demise, and ultimately the destruction of Bifrost and the takeover of the Roundrobin system.]]
** [[spoiler: Ma-Karina is also used to copy Vixen's voice to trick Azusawa to think that Komiya was killed.]]

** While Kei is able to get a couple hits in, it's clear that Kougami has the fight. It should be noted that Kei might've been [[WillfullyWeak holding himself back]] to prevent Kougami from getting to Azusawa before Arata arrested him.

** Kougami makes quick work of [[spoiler: Jackdaw with a revolver and good ol' hand-to-hand combat.
** Kei shows off his Russian military training by easily taking down [[spoiler: Vixen]].
