This is an interesting topic. I’d defintiely say that ERASED and Death Note have touches of being psychological to them. I’d also say that Psycho Pass may qualify due to the ethical nature of the plot.

Completely agree with you! I also think Psycho Pass also has a lot dealing with psychological.
However, Classroom of the Elite and ReLife for example… Anime-Planet puts into the category of psychological and I don’t feel that’s true at all…

Hmm … I’ve not seen either, so couldn’t say for sure on them. There are always some odd anomalies in how things are classified though. Like, the supernatural elements led to Death Note being listed as horror in a local shop. I kinda agree with the classification in part, but can see why people argue against it too.

This is one of those nebulous terms that has kind of lost its meaning in the anime world. People (mis)use it a lot so the exact meaning is pretty muddy. I’m more inclined to agree with what you stated here though.

Most anime just because they are “darker” get placed in this category which I can understand. They tend to be the anime that I watch the most of and I agree that the characters need to be in some sort of psychological crisis.

I love psychological Animes 😀 I love the dark, the close up to the eyes that seem to be almost exploding and all that xD
