The fastest way to a man's heart- Or anyone's, in fact- Is to tear a hole through their chest.

Now I want to stay up.  So much I can be doing.  I started Psycho-Pass last night, and it's amazing. :D
Have you watched Psycho-Pass?
And have you begun Black Butler or are you still working on LoK?

I watched one episode where the guy tries to r*** the woman and gets pulverised. My grandmother was watching too.

I'll try to begin Black Butler this evening.

Whenever you get around to BB, I'd love to discuss it with you!  It's all still fresh in my mind.

As for the first episode of PP:  the criminal they were after was a total creep, to put it lightly.  I was just as disgusted with the victim, honestly.  Probably because of how weak she was: she didn't put up a fight or try to defend herself at all; she just screamed.  I was glad that Kagari intervened, recognizing that she was too weak to survive or retain psychological stability.  Though I was relieved that he saved her, I still wanted her to be shot at the end.  It's a normal cycle in the real world that the abused become the abusers, and it was no surprise that in duress, her crime coefficient rose so high that she was at risk of committing criminal behaviour herself.  Her death would have made a neatly-wrapped end to the case.  Later, I was satisfied with the fact that she was receiving therapy, as all victims should, and that her psychological health was recovering.
The episodes that follow, at least the ones I've seen so far, don't deal with such adult topics as that.  Cases of abuse in the form of bullying and some murder with images obscured from viewers are what follow.  I recommend giving the next two episodes a chance, if you feel like it.

The 1984-esque plot of PP is intriguing, and I'm fascinated with the Inspector-Enforcer roles.  The Sibyl system disgusts me, but it definitely makes an interesting and horrifying image of the future.  I'm really enjoying this show so far.

I suppose she was just terrified. I don't remember much but I think he threatened to kill her if she resisted.

Welcome one and all to the first forum talk show, 15000 ways to make a post. Today I'm joined with a gueststar Jetthebinturong who will be speaking about posts that are being sarcastic when people spoiler TV shows, on the forum.

So Jet, what is the basis to such a post? Where we start, if we were tying to copy that kind of post?

Well Sandpaw, first you need to be annoyed at spoilers that someone has written.
