Ergo Proxy

Overall Rating: A
Synopsis: Ergo Proxy has it all. The main character looks like Evanescence's lead singer with awesome blue eyeshadow, there's a virus that causes robots to become homicidal, a domed city in the future, an Orwellian society, and an adorable little robot named Pino.

I can tell you this, I <3 Ergo Proxy. The why of my love is a little harder to detail. I like fake equations though, so in that sense, it breaks down as Philosophy + Science Fiction + Amazing Animation + Cosplay Potential (yes, I want to cosplay Re-L, she has a great outfit) = why I like this series. It certainly doesn't hurt that it reminds me a lot of Ghost in the Shell with a dash of 1984. So, unless you're one of those hobotaku who doesn't like to think when they watch anime, I highly recommend adding the first disc to your Netflix queue.

  3. I'll add my vote of approval for Ergo Proxy. The art's better than the story, but even the story's not half bad. I still need to watch the last couple of episodes at some point.

    Also, Pino is the best part of the series.

  4. Just finished it this morning (at 5am). I dunno where I read that it had a disappointing ending (imdb.com maybe?) but I think it was quite fitting.
