Minarathon mo sa Netflix? Not too sure if Ergo Proxy is the kind of anime that's best left percolating after each episode, and/or it takes more than one pass through to get it.
That reminds me of one of those anime, Texhnolyze. I watched it for the "Hipster cred" and I ended up with depression, and worse, I don't get it, HAHAHAHAHA!! Yung tumatak lang sa akin is the incredibly bleak ending (even more bleak than End of Evangelion's imo). Even worse, I don't think I can watch it again knowing the ending, it's just too depressing.
kekw napa wtf na nga ko sa eva may mas malala pa pala HAHAHAH. well mejo interested kasi ako sa overall plot ng ergo proxy I needed answers not sleep kaya na marathon ko
Texhnolyze has a different kind of wtf than Evangelion. I dare say it's more visceral in the sense that it doesn't slap you with it, but rather hit you in the gut, but it's also likely that it's just me. What I can say though that it's a brutal watch on multiple levels, and the reward you get from watching it is depression, unless you transcend and actually get it (or watch a video explainer like this, lol).
Now, I am interested in giving Ergo Proxy a try. Maybe I can intersperse it with something relaxing (Mushishi, perhaps?) so that it isn't so taxing.
