Description "Traveling in these circumstances, I feel as if there's a wall separating us. A wall that doesn't allow mingling of human and Proxy, or of a human and an Autorave infected with the Cogito Virus."

-Re-l Mayer from Meditatio XVI Busy Doing Nothing
*******************************************
Another fanart to keep this gallery alive.^^ *waves to everyone* FULLVIEW please!

Ergo Proxy is probably one of the most under appreciated series of recent years. Sure, it's not one of the best but it certainly is one of the most unique(a sci-fi mindfuck, as someone put it ) It ranks up there with Ghost in the Shell: SAC and Paranoia Agent on my list of anime I'd watch over and over again.
What makes me love this series so much is the interaction between the characters. (if you have no idea of what I'm babbling about, go watch it. NAO)

The personalities of Re-l, Vincent and Pino reminds me sooo much of my own characters- Sam, Lex, and Mia. Even their relationships and interactions with one another hit close to home. The episode mentioned above, Episode 16- where they're all basically well, busy doing nothing is my absolute fave.

On a last note, if I ever had a daughter I want her to be like Pino (she doesn't have to be an android, tho)

I wish I had more time to color this, but hope y'all still like!

An excellent peice, showing the emotions very well and the kind of serious loniness that over comes Re-l. Also you show the sort of nice guy attitude with Voncent and perfectly the child like nature of Pino. I'm pretty much impressed by the time and attention as well as your style. I think I'll look up others.

This is amazing! I've been starring at this piece for 5 minutes now and I still cannot fully grasp it's awesome-ness! I heart Re-1's expression... and Vincent's expression... and Pino's expression! And I agree with you, Ergo Proxy has not been shown enough love and appreciation. Sad really, it's like sports for your brains. Mindfuck, what a brilliant term.

Bhryn In reply to ??? [2008-08-28 10:18:02 +0000 UTC]

I absolutely ADORE ergo proxy, and even with no colour on this, it -really- stands out. It is, as you say, a real mindfuck. It makes me think a lot along the lines of books like Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep (cinematically adapted loosely into Blade Runner) and I, Robot (Asimov's work is flawless).

Love it. So Much. <3

batangbatugan In reply to Bhryn [2008-08-28 16:31:01 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, it's a really nice take on the genre indeed. ^^

It does make me think of why Pino didn't go crazy when she contracted the virus. My understanding is it's because of the child-like curiousness programmed in to her as a companion-type autoreiv. For most others gaining a will meant losing their reason to live. But for Pino, her innocence and curiousity allowed her to find another reason on her own(Vince) whle still holding dear to her original raison d'etre(Raul).

So I've heard. If you want weird that borders on the I.Q. diminishing level of stupidness, try Cromartie High. (if you haven't yet )
