Devil's Crossroad is the twelfth episode of Psycho-Pass.

Synopsis

Three years ago, Yayoi Kunizuka, a former guitarist, is institutionalized after she's labeled a latent criminal. As she anxiously waits for release so she can play the guitar again, she is approached by Inspectors Shinya Kogami and Nobuchika Ginoza about a series of crimes occurring in an area with which she is familiar. She initially rejects their offer until Kogami gives her some guitar strings which reminds her of a guitarist she admires, Rina Takizaki. When the club they are investigating gets set on fire after Kogami's partner, Enforcer Mitsuru Sasayama, jumps the gun in approaching culprits dealing with Molotov cocktails, Kunizuka decides to search for Takizaki, only to discover that she is part of a resistance group selling the molotov cocktails in the hopes of overthrowing the Sibyl System. Kunizuka tries to stop Takizaki, but finds she is unable to use the Dominator that Kogami gave her, as she is not an Enforcer yet, and Takizaki escapes. Afterward, Kunizuka resolves to become an Enforcer and leaves the rehabilitation center.

Story

(notes only at this time)

  • While in the facility, Kunizuka's Crime Coefficient is 118, her Hue is initially medium blue, but changes to dark yellow when she gets angry (which means her Crime Coefficient rises above 120).
    • Her "Colour History" shows that the recent variations of her Crime Coefficient are 118.4, to 110.2, 113.6 and 118.3.
  • Production error: the ID displayed when Kunizuka checks her Crime Coefficient is actually Kogami's (00475-AEDF-52510-2); but later, when Sasayama looks at her file on his wristlink, the ID shown is hers (00475-AEST-17855-2).
  • The Crime Coefficients of 2 of Kunizuka's fellow inmates are also displayed : one at 124, the other at 128.
  • The destructions of Psycho-Pass scanners Kogami mentions to Kunizuka, took place on March 28th, March 30th and April 2nd 2109.
  • For Division 1's raid, Masaoka ambushed himself at the "Yellow Hood" and Sasayama at "Club 27". According to Ginoza's call log, the Enforcers made their first report at 3 a.m.
  • Sasayama measures the hostage taker Crime Coefficient at 184.2 and then at 314.5, while his hostage's is read at 98.3.
  • Kunizuka is issued the matching holster alongside her Dominator.
  • When she tried to use her Dominator, Kunizuka pulled the trigger 8 times in the following sequence: 1, 2, 1, 2 and 2 times. This resulted in Kogami's user log displaying 5 denied use requests.
    • According to this user log, Kunizuka tried to shoot Rina on April 14th 2109 at 4:09 a.m.
