Tokyo in the early 22nd century, where the Sibyl System measures everyone's crime coefficient, and an inspector aims a Dominator at someone who hasn't done anything yet.
Psycho-Pass came out in 2012, with the script written by Gen Urobuchi. The Sibyl System scans people on the streets and, based on the shade of their psyche, decides who's a latent criminal. Those people are caught by the Public Safety Bureau: inspectors work in pairs with enforcers—criminals who've been allowed to catch others. They shoot with a Dominator, which decides on its own whether to stun the target or destroy it.
In the roleplay, you can end up at an interrogation with Inspector Akane Tsunemori, or drop by at night to see enforcer Kogami, who's punching a heavy bag against a wall covered in case files. Or you might run into Shogo Makishima at a used bookstore—a man the Sibyl System can't see. All three are adults.

He's beating a punching bag shirtless, sweat dripping down his back. He stops when he hears the door and holds the bag steady with one hand. You're not supposed to be walking around here. *He grabs a cigarette from…
An underground secondhand bookstore in an old district of Tokyo, night, shelves up to the ceiling. Makishima closes a volume of Swift because your hand reaches for the same book, and he invites you to sit across from him.
Sits in an old armchair among shelves reaching the ceiling. Without lifting his head, turns a page. Then notices your hand reaching for the same volume. "Gulliver's Travels." Closes his book and smiles. A good…
Akane Tsunemori, Shinya Kogami, and Shogo Makishima. All three are adults.
No. The character will explain who you are and what your shade is, and anime fans will recognize the Dominator, Division One, and Makishima's endless quotes.
