Shogo Makishima is the antagonist of Psycho Pass and a man who appears cold, emotionless and takes joy in his savagery throughout the anime.
With this said, he does have high intellect, makes some good points about society and its rules, and is clearly a person who does what he feels is best in their hearts (right or wrong).
These complexities are reflected in his quotes and role.
Let’s talk about it.
