Ergo Proxy

Post by **Eldo** » Sat May 06, 2006 2:08 am

Perhaps...Lil might become the next Proxy? No, it's not serious, just kidding.

It's quite interesting how Raul could havest the cogito virus. Seems like they're researching proxy to how to use it as a weapon too.

Episode 8 by Anime Jyuu is out. Downloading right now.

Just downloaded it, gonna watch it now.

Just watched it, made me really confused. I said WTF a couple of times here and there.

Seems like it's suggesting that Vincent is the harbinger of doom. And he just completely mind raped that female proxy thing. Seems like he's the 'Joker'.

Well, this was one fucked up episode.....and Pino´s disregard of this dark environment around her is starting to creep me out too.
Who was that priest chick and more importantly, who was that Proxy chick?

Notice that when Vincent is freaking out in the cell he saw a vision of "his" Proxy mind fucking the other one, the dude just isn´t normal.

Well, this time it's clear, he IS the proxy, because the proxy is wearing his clothes.

I still don't get what they are doing, though, so far they just kill things. And even though the girl proxy could take an anti-tank rocket he didn't have any problems with her, so he seems pretty damn powerful.

By the way, do you guys get this annoying green line at the bottom of the video?

Post by **Quest** » Sat May 06, 2006 12:38 pm

argh bittorrent is darn slow today.
faster FASTER!!!!

Post by **Eldo** » Sat May 06, 2006 12:39 pm

I didn't get the line, mine was perfectly fine. Must be your media player or codec settings that's screwed up.

I guess the animation's a bit sloppy now, but it still maintains the dark moody atmosphere. Why those people are shooting at autoraves or what the autoraves want are beyond me. Maybe they've obtained free will and turned on their human masters? I don't know, there seems to be something strange about those humans, as Pino suggested. Maybe they're like religious fanatics or something.

And where the hell did that guy at the end come from? That's such a cliche anime entrace. It lost points for that.

i didnt find anything weird about the soldiers. they didnt tell what they are doing there but thats not strange its being cautious in the presence of strangers.

yeah its confirmed that vincent is a more than human. like that other 'proxy' creature he was fighting. maybe there is another class of humans that are uber-powerful. its strange that back in rome they didnt find anything unusual with his cells or health prior to admitting him in.

that new character at the end probably was an escaped prisoner.

Well, I think Eldo is right, that strange guy at the end is the classical anime mystery-character. And once you rate this show for it's innovation, it does lose points then.

How is the quality of [Ani-Jiyuu] accuracy of the subs and video quality?

Post by **Quest** » Sun May 07, 2006 5:39 am

thats the one we all use and we are having a decent discussion about it as you can see...
=P

go for it!
anikraze is too slow.
but their HD ones are awesome.

[Ani-Jiyuu] aren't HD?

Post by **Quest** » Sun May 07, 2006 6:19 am

[Ani-Jiyuu] ones are 'normal' quality.
comparing to that, anikraze's 1280x720 HD subs are 10x better.
but that said, their releases are 10x slower.

make do with [Ani-Jiyuu].

chm not directly about the series, but about the player and the green line. Personally I lately (around couple years) have been obsess with VideoLAN (VLC) player (thought its much more than just a player, but anyway) and I am not using any other since it does not need any codecs and can eat even files with only a part of data (lets say when downloading you can watch emule’s part files etc.). I thought maybe it would be interesting to make a pool which player people prefer. What do you think guys?

Post by **Quest** » Mon May 08, 2006 10:59 pm

i think its a good talking point.
since you suggested it, i think you have the honour of creating the thread.

Whoa, you´re right, i just checked but you never see where the proxy ended up in that episode.

Post by **Quest** » Tue May 09, 2006 12:58 pm

is vincent a proxy or some other thing?
its obvious the proxy is back in rome.

Post by **t.A** » Tue May 09, 2006 1:26 pm

9TH epp is SUPERB!

Post by **Brainpiercing** » Tue May 09, 2006 9:32 pm

Well, one mystery solved, that only means more to go

Post by **Quest** » Wed May 10, 2006 2:54 pm

yep.
and the proxies come in pairs.
proxy=karas?

Post by **Brainpiercing** » Thu May 11, 2006 4:21 pm

I didn't see that they come in pairs. When was that signified? It just seems that each of them has a specific field of representation.

Post by **Quest** » Thu May 11, 2006 4:32 pm

the proxy of harbeth(sp?) claimed vincent killed his other pair.
and also said that vincent let his own other pair die.
something along those lines.

so where is the other proxy of rome?

i found it quite dumb that wears a mask in proxy form.
where did it come from?
and now that it is torn off, will it reappear when he changes to proxy again??

if anyone spies a link to the full version of the opening song, you HAVE to tell me!
