Ergo Proxy

[Dreakon]

Rather than make a new thread, I will just dig up this one. Sorry if this bothers anyone...

I really want to watch this series, but a friend (amongst other various users on the interweb) tells me the ending isn't very satisfying. I have seen the first episode and the show definately has potential, but I don't want to pay for and waste time watching the whole series and find a mediocre, inconclusive ending. No spoilers please, no need for a description of the ending or anything, I just want to know if it left a bad taste in your mouth... so to speak.

Also, is there an OVA, movie or even sequal in the works as of this moment? That would make a crummy ending slightly more bareable.

Ergo Proxy is a show that requires you to think about it. If you've put in the requisite thought, the ending will do well. No, they don't hand you all the explanations, that would defeat a good chunk of the point.

[Dreakon]

As long as the answers are there, somewhere in the series, I'll be happy.

It's one thing to have to think, it's another if the anime simply doesn't tell you certain important, conclusive details and I'm forced to guess what they meant. Hopefully the latter isn't the case for Ergo Proxy.

I'll be sure to give it a try in the near future (when the rest of the DVDs come out).

Also before I go, I'm just curious, does Ergo Proxy have any kind of significant plot twists? Yes or no will suffice, explanations will just spoil it and I haven't seen enough to even make a guess at what they would be if the answer is Yes.

One of the reasons I loved anime like Trigun and Full Metal Alchemist (my two favorite) so much is they weren't afraid to do things like

Spoiler :

kill off main characters

for the sake of making the viewer go "wow, I can't believe that just happened" and they are just that much more interested in seeing what happens next. I don't mean to seem shallow or anything, just figured I'd ask.

Thanks!

Well, if you only watched episode 1, I'd say you're in for a plot twister or two.

It's not like the series takes a 180degree turn, but there are some surprises along the way. I guess I didn't tell too much by telling you this.

Nah, didn't tell too much at all. Thankee! I think I'll enjoy this.

andI would like to thank the other members for clearing up questions I hadn't even asked yet
