Ergo Proxy eps 3-6

Real:  "Can I have a costar who can figure out if he's the Damsel in Distress or the epic hero already? Plskthnx.  Also, if I don't figure out what's going on soon, I'll shoot something.  Forget that, I'll shoot things anyway.  Maybe I'll get to kneecap someone."

Vincent:  "I may not know if I'm the Damsel in Distress or the epic hero, and I don't think even I know what's up with me, but I'm sweet and try hard and I'm actually rather cute when I stop squinting and open my eyes.  I should never be allowed to style my own hair, though."

Pino:  "I am clearly meant to raise all sorts of existential questions that will be annoying, but I'm too cute to hold that against me."

Security Bureau Guy:  "I hate Vincent for shooting things in front of me and also dislike Real for some unknown reason.  Clearly, i will be trouble."

Daedelaus:  "You may not be able to tell if  I'm a man or a woman, but I am clearly in love with Real and will be forced to do unpleasant things to the next person who tries anything there."

City:  "Yes, i'm a giant dome keeping everyone from dying of toxins.  They probably told you that in the first episode, you were just distracted by the pretty and Real's eyeshadow."

Again:  Still a little too dense and caught up in its own intelligence, and I can see a few thematic annoyances coming(it's going to be bashing me over the head with existential stuff, isn't it?) but I like the characters and feel and style, so I'm just turning off certain parts of the brain and enjoying myself.  (again, it requires footnotes at the end to explain what they were talking about.  It does, though, include a lot of mythology.)

I have more caps.

Also, I got bored last night and made icons from the first two eps.

Heh. Took some of the icons.

I'll probably read through your spoilers to find out what happened at the end. I think I got like 14 eps into it? I was still bored.

You have no idea. The last episode made me want to kill things. I spent a lot of time screaming: "Too much existentialism! Want moar roller derby!"

I think I remember you telling me about that.

(What's that icon from?)

Tenjho Tenge. That's Madoka. She comes way, way later in the series.
