Psycho-Pass: Makishima Shogo 03

Makishima’s primary goal is to liberate the Japanese Society of the Sibyl System, a private organization that created and manages the Psycho-Pass technology as well as the Dominators. He believes the system has turned the citizens into mere “sheep”, and outwardly disdains their way of living. Makishima wishes to force the people to reexamine their motives and determine the direction of their lives based on their own will.

Cosplayer Sakuya (咲也) has so many amazing photos on her Twitter account that I had a hard time choosing which one to feature first! Head on over there and see for yourself! Thanks to Nicole for sending this in!

Psycho-Pass: Makishima Shogo and Kogami Shinya

In the distant future, a “cymatic scan” of the brain can instantaneously measure and person’s mental state, personality, and the possibility that the person will commit a crime. The assessment, known as a Psycho-Pass, is monitored by the Sybil System, and when the “Crime Coefficient” index reaches a certain level, the individual is perused and apprehended, sometimes with lethal force.

When an Enforcer was killed under inspector Kogami Shinya’s unit, he was pursuing the mastermind behind the Specimen Case until he was killed in the same manner as his victims. Instead of seeking therapy, Shinya became so focused on the case that he was demoted to Enforcer by the Sybil System. Because of the limitation of his movements as an Enforcer, Shinya eventually left Unit One in order to hunt down Makishima Shogo and avenge his friend’s death.

A breathtaking pair of cosplayers with Neru as Shogo and Jun as Shinya! It’s almost scary how well they portray the characters from this cyberpunk thriller! Thanks to Daniel for suggesting this!

Psycho-Pass: Makishima Shogo

Source: Willie on World Cosplay

An old enemy of Kogami Shinya’s, Makishima Shogo is a humanist on the dark side and the target of Shinya’s revenge. He is hopelessly in love with cruelty, savagery, and all the worst aspects of human nature. As a born evangelist, he possesses uncommon charisma and a true gift for narrative. Shogo is suspected to be the mastermind behind many cases the Public Safety Bureau are continually investigating.

A highly convincing Shogo by Chinese cosplayer Willie! It’s almost creepy how well he’s captured the character in a single photo. Please be sure to check out his World Cosplay account for more of his amazing work! Thanks to Vanessa for sending this in!
