Paranoia Agent

TV Show • 2004 • Animation  

Report
The infamous Shounen Bat (Lil' Slugger) is terrorizing the residents of Musashino City. Flying around on his rollerblades and beating people down with a golden baseball bat, the assailant seems impossible to catch—much less understand. His first victim, the well-known yet timid character designer Tsukiko Sagi, is suspected of orchestrating the attacks. Believed only by her anthropomorphic pink stuffed animal, Maromi, Tsukiko is just one of Shounen Bat's many victims. As Shounen Bat continues his relentless assault on the town, detectives Keiichi Ikari and Mitsuhiro Maniwa begin to investigate the identity of the attacker. However, more and more people fall victim to the notorious golden bat, and news of the assailant begins circulating around the town. Paranoia starts to set in as chilling rumors spread amongst adults and children alike. Will the two detectives be able to unravel the truth behind Shounen Bat, or will the paranoia get to them first?

Part of the twist. We learn about his death before we see it, which is quite bloody.

It is heavily implied that a man sexually assaults a young girl during a robbery. Brief but upsetting/disturbing.

Arguable. Most of the cops depicted are abusers and clearly bad people.

While the portrayal is very grim, as a OSDD-1 system, I felt that the representation was handled very well. Without spoilers, there is a dynamic between two alters who struggle with their direction in life and it turns vitriolic - while it isn't happy representation, I do feel that this kind of representation is accurate to what a dysfunctional system is like.
