I can bear with Gigguk because he seems more self-aware and is generally inoffensive, but most of the other ones are morons. I'm sympathetic to the idea of wanting to talk about stuff, but show quality is way more important to me. There's like almost nobody I can talk to about Ergo Proxy, but I don't mind rewatching it again because it's that much better than whatever anime is out there. I just don't have it in me to watch Re  ero and sit through something I know I'm going to cringe at just so I can feel like I'm part of something. Wait, you couldnt find people to talk about Ergo Proxy with ? I find that questionable :O. I probably wouldnt rewatch it though, but Pino is best.. Nobody ever has anything meaningful to say. :/ Also because they like Pino. xD But I think my bigger point is you just have a bigger audience for the seasonals. They're much more up to date, etc. etc. I almost stopped watching Ergo Proxy, but then Pino appeared and saved the show for me. + Show Spoiler +But seriously Pino was annoying at first and I didn't get why she was in the show, but later it sort of made sense.
Pino is like....the most superficial part of the show. Her contribution to the show is absolutely minimal and near unnecessary. Everything else is far more interesting. -_-

All those people that try to trigger znf, lol... I personally can't believe how anyone in their right mind could think that Pino was a _good_ thing for Ergo Proxy. Pino was bad for the series but was completely overshadowed by what ep15 and 19 did to the series. Because of those episodes Pino just seemed to be a minor annoyance in the grand picture.

I never even finished Ergo Proxy. I stopped at episode 18 according to MAL though I do plan to go back and finish the last 5 episodes. Don't know what you're talking about though since Pino was the best part of the show when I was watching. It kept it realistic and down to earth even though it felt like the show tried hard to be something special. From memory, the show had a great OP and was a fun watch. Would also recommend it but I also think it's overrated ~

Ergo Proxy has a lot of amazing episodes and ideas and if you think Pino was the "best part" because it keeps it "realistic" then you're out of your mind. To even suggest that Ergo Proxy is lacking because it lacks realism is to almost completely whiff the point of the show.
Like if you stopped at 18 and you aren't saying Ophelia (episode 14) was one of the greatest episodes in anime, period, you're really selling the show short. Yes, the show tries to be something special, and it is.

Maybe I am selling it short, but the show just never had that mass appeal to me. It was fun watch as previously mentioned but I wasn't completely enthralled with it either. As for episode 14, I don't even remember what happened there. Would have to rewatch to say whether it was indeed one of the greatest in all of anime.

The Proxy doesn't have a name. The episode is just called Ophelia.

The Proxy doesn't have a name. The episode is just called Ophelia.

I don't even know where to start with that whole "never had that mass appeal to me." Like....are you talking about Ergo Proxy not being able to appeal to a large group of people? If so, then no shit. It's not really the most accessible title out there.

Nope. I'm saying that the show didn't appeal to me as much as some of the other shows I've watched. I don't really care if it does or doesn't appeal to others. An experience is subjective after all.

Texhnolyze would be better if it had a Pino.. + Show Spoiler +please nobody tell him where i live.

Ergo Proxy's best episode was them getting stranded with no wind.

That one's pretty good. I like most of the experimental episode in the second portion of the show. They're all more interesting than the plot, which is both nonexistent and pretty messy.

Of course she's not. She's a superior child character that actually contributes to the show. >:[
