RaulxDaedalus 4 EVA!!!!!1111. Okay, maybe not. So, half this episode is Daedalus tricking Raul into letting him near Monad’s inert body so that he can finish fashioning some anti-Amrita bullets; they basically just stare at each other and try and psyche each other out for most of the episode, which doesn’t make for thrilling viewing overall aside [...]

Science fiction and confusion often go hand in hand, but Ergo Proxy is close to reaching the kinds of befuddling heights scaled only by behemoths like Mamoru Oshii.
