Conventional realist narratives that seek to explain the psychological motivations to transgress the law are often tested and combusted by the fictional worlds of Japanese popular culture. Just like our conventional world, however, these fantastic worlds are disclosed by the stories told about them. Arguably, this makes such a distinction between convention and fantasm moot. What is of first order importance is rather that there are a range of stories that take the law beyond the narrow confines of the law properly so-called.1 The Japanese popular art form of anime is replete with such stories, although some are more radical than others in their jurisprudence. Sometimes these stories of the legal fantastic are tales of justice beyond the law, set in high fantasy realities. Other legal tales, like that of the Psycho-Pass anime, instead turn toward a high-technology near future to deconstruct the interiority of legal agencies and governance.
