    Plot Summary: In a world where humans and androids, known as autoreivs, live in relative peace, there exists a domed city named "Romdeau". Under the implementation of complete management control, it is a paradise where feelings are literally discarded, and the governing council dictates the way of life the citizens should live. But this utopian landscape is soon broken by a series of mystifying murders. Real Mayar, a female inspector from the Citizen Information Bureau, along with her autoreiv partner Iggy, are tasked to solve the murder cases. She is soon attacked by a creature drawn to her which is neither human nor android, and learns about the mysterious phenomena called "Awakening", an event which draws her further into the case...and to the world beyond the limits of Romdeau.
    I really like this anime. I really like how things are played out, the story is quite slow starting and confusing but you really get sucked in, the animation is really good and the style/concept is cool. Im highly enjoying it. Its quite a slow and dark anime however that some may find boring. I defiantly think its worth a shot though, check it out at least.

    I saw the first few episodes of this and while it was pretty interesting and looked great, it confused the hell outta me. So i stopped. It seemd like a god show.

      Yea the anime is quite confusing. I was alittle put off by it myself but I stuck with it. Its quite a lot to take in but it does get easier, you really start to get sucked in. The thing which I actually enjoyed about this anime is the fact that, yea, while the world where the anime is set and the story is hard to follow, it doesn't feel the need to explain itself every time. For instance, you know how in some animes some guy does a move or something that's farfetched, they always take like 5 minutes explaining why they managed to do it.

      "OH MY GOD HE CAN'T DO THAT!"
      "AHA. But you see I can because blah blah blah (two minutes later) and that's why I can summon a fire demon with not magic skill"
      "OH NOES!"

      All you need to know in Ergo Proxy gets explained, Its a bit of reading but it seems more natural to the conversation. It's quite hard to explain really and i'm not known for being good at explaining things. I know its effort but i think if you watch Ergo Proxy, give the first three episodes a try. Then I think you will understand better and have better judgement of the anime.
