I had no clue what was going on half the time

no one has. the trick is not to say that.

>>252142896 (OP)

This series is impossible to finish. I have never heard of a single person who has finished it and I've tried 3 times.

i've finished it fully, but yeah it's pretty bad.

also it doesn't end well for the domes.

MUH RAISON D'ETRE

episode 15 is so out of place it's embarassing

CAN'T WAKE UP

>>252142896 (OP)



Neither did the studio.



The "let's infodump the secret to the entire mystery plot during a gag game show episode" really gave it away

MUH BUSTY STATUES

>>252142896 (OP)

it's really not that hard

Mankind creates Proxies to manage stuff while they are away. Their coming back, and the destruction of both proxies and "fake" humans is the endgame, called "pulse of awakening" or something of the sort.

it is

>>252142896 (OP)

same, but afterwards i read some wikis and watched some YT reviews and it helped me to lay out the story in my head, though still I believe that the only thing I took to heart from all those values and philosophies packed in the show was >>252143185 - raison d'etre



got me thinking then, gets me thinking still now



who am I without it, and do I have it

>>252142896 (OP)

So from a other thread a few years ago i remember anons saying the current fake humans on earth were all going to be wiped out because they were only there to test if the real humans in space could return safely. 

And i say fake humans because apparently a lot of the humans in the show supposedly lacked something that made them human. 

But the show doesnt really show that with the ending shots of lights coming down from the sky.

>humans in the show supposedly lacked something that made them human



I just remember them lacking in hability to reproduce. All reproduction was controlled by the dome's government.

hello, I am that person. Not going to pretend I've understood that, but I liked the mood and overall style. Even wanted to cosplay as Vincent/Proxy

>>252142896 (OP)

It isn't that complicated, it's just a mess.

>I had no clue what was going on half the time

literal brainlet, 

after all of those infodumps in the quiz episodes?

>>252142896 (OP)

And you don't seem to understand

>>252142896 (OP)

I'll never get how people like this or Lain seeing how they're both shit in the same way.

>>252142896 (OP)

to be fair, you have to have a very high degree of education in literature to understand ergo proxy. the worldbuilding is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of the western canon, most of the refrences will go over the typical viewer's head.

COME AND SAVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I've finished it twice. I don't remember it being particularly hard to "understand," just kind of real weird and not very coherent, but I also don't remember really anything about it either on the whole. So whatever.

I finished it but I couldn't tell you what happened.

Lain is far more straightforward than Ergo Proxy
