| is obvious that he is a proxy ^^ well I saw the anime....awesome anime is so cool and mysterious |
 |
| 5 out of 5: Loved it! (your vote) Oh, shit!! Vincent, you go boy!!!! |
 |
| Vincent is indeed a proxy. Still many more questions to be answered. |

| Vincent killed him pretty fast. I kinda want to see a 1 on 1 proxy fight, that would've been interesting. |

enkil said: heh, i liked how pino counted up to 400 rabbits till vince came back. I was thinking, "Ah what a sweet and forgiving child...err autoreiv." LOL And I love the last shot of the episode where Pino was standing and leaning behind Vincent. ♥♥♥ |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| I like how the previews are done by X for X arc. Pino is so cute <3. |

| Bad editing, annoying Loli-tron and Avatar eyes, nice. |
A man of few words. |
| He is a proxy. :O Now I know for sure, but wondering what's next. |

| Wow what a plot twist, great episode! |
 |
| Finally, Vincent is confirmed the proxy - Ergo Proxy that is.. Kinda confused what the Proxy of Brilliance is trying to say but I had something in my mind. Hopefully, next eps will explain. :) Great episode BTW. |
| Soultaker? |
| I'm glad that the blonde one is out. He tried to seduce Vincent after he killed his beloved one ? Oh, okay. Anyway he is where he wanted to be and he gave us a few answers and a lot more questions. Pino would be a great daughter :D Going to the next episode :) |
| So not only Vincent is a proxy, but he's the proxy of death. Very interesting. |

Funnymrbunny said: YExoticCreature said: Also, why are there talking naked statues in this anime show? The statues aren't talking... I think. I think its actually people talking. But the camera view is on the statues. This has been done in several works before, though I can't name them. I like the Proxy to God comparison. Because they are like, the Deities of their world. And they each are the Proxy of something, such as Proxy of the Moon, or Proxy of Death. as opposed to Goddess (in this case) of the Moon and God of Death, which is also ironic because Vincent even wondered himself if he was a "Shinigami" or Death God. Hm really? I thought the statues' heads were moving and stuff. Maybe that's for effect so that it seems like the statues are talking. Still weird though. Those statues also give me headaches :P It must be sad for Vincent when he realizes/remembers that he is the Proxy of Death because he doesn't like death. Even though he doesn't know how to keep living, at least he still is :) I'm glad he's back with Pino. They're a cute duo. I wonder why he cried when he was in proxy form that time when he went to Re-l's apartment? It can't just be because he likes her right? |
| Ah, so the pretty proxy from last ep was Hauer's soulmate, Senekis... Also, I think Hauer mentioned, (Between chugging all that wine.. That guy can drink!) that Vincent had killed his own soul mate? Was that the one that was chasing him around in Romdo? "I've already counted to one hundred so I'm going to leave Vince behind, ok?...Hmm... 50 more!" Oh Pino... So cute. |
Forough said: Ever since Real found Vincent's necklace in her room after that proxy incident it was quite obvious that he's the proxy. But this episode made it clear all together. Very interesting episode. Felt the same way since that episode which I think was number 2 |
 |
| My expectation about who Vicent really is, is now confirmed. I didn't know that Pino knew about the true identity of Vicent :o This girl keeps surprising me episode by episode xD |
 |
| Great episode. |
 |
| Great episode! Two sexy Proxies battling it out... Hell yeah!! Sent with Mal Updater |
|
| Finally we have confirmation of what was suspected all along. He's a proxy and a powerful one at that. |

Mamoru Oshii There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov |
| Ok so there was always that thing in the back of my mind that vincent was a proxy, i mean the "hints" were like "hey guys hes a proxy" soooo yea. BUT. The episode before this one, got me thinking. These proxys are connected to things. That one was the moon. OMFG vincent is the god...i mean proxy of....DEATH. Not goina say i called it, but im happy when my assumptions are right ^^. Vincent OP |
 |
| great episode and just clarification that vincent was a proxy, but now we know he is the proxy of death, very interesting xD pino knowing all along was a reveal for me, her counting rabbits made me smile too :) only thing i would like to know now is what other people have asked previously.... what are proxies? sure it will be explained the pacing on this anime i have realized is so good, nice and steady with healthy amounts of action but also information, love it so far |
| I thought he would be a proxy . . . But not "Ergo Proxy" . . . Though guess it makes sense why he is so powerful. But feel bad now for "Monad" since apparently he/she did all this shit for Ergo just to have him kill her/him. |
 |
| Pino definitely masterminded this whole op |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
unclesnapple said: I'm still very confused by the blonde guy's motives. He was trying to explain the goodness of destruction and why all those people had to die and why they're a "lie" and it confused me to all Hell. Yeah, really, what's up with him? |
| And now I know why this is called Ergo Proxy. At this point, trying to understand what proxies are or why they exist is useless. My brain's just going to overheat if I think about it XD Well one thing I do get is that it was Vincent who touched Re-L on the lips and Senekisu was the other proxy who attacked him. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Great episode,so he is the agent of death. |
  |
| More monsters, ehh I expected good sci fi, not fighting super-monsters. I will continue watching, but I think, it is not story for me. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Great episode. Some questions definitely answered. So these proxies are title the "proxy of -something" Does being the proxy of death mean that he will bring death to only proxies, or everyone around him. It seems like he is super powerful and the only proxy who tends to win each fight and has the ability to kill them. Hmm.... So I think they all have a different objective and they were suppose to fulfill their proxy roles within each city/dome, but Mr. Ergo proxy here forgot his mission. Interesting. Looking forward to this. Also another speculation about the soulmate proxies, could Vincent also have one? Could it be our main female lead? So MANY questions ugh |

| Ok, so I already knew that Vincent is a Proxy for some time but I was thinking that he is Ergo Proxy...Although I always called him "the big Proxy that kills all the other ones" :) But they could finally explain that are Proxys....And also, I wanna see Re-I... |
| If only I wasn't already spoiled that Vincent was a proxy, I would have enjoyed this more. I was also spoiled that Kazkis was a proxy just by looking at Troy Baker's MAL page. Great episode though. Still confused on what "Ergo Proxy" is. Pino <3 |
| Holy shit, Vincent is the Ergo Proxy? So is he like the strongest proxy due to the title of proxy of death? |
| So Vincent is a Proxy , this was cool . I like how dark the anime is , but i didn't like that monsters/proxy/awakening thing i feel like it would have been a better series without those monsters . Anyway , Good episode . |
| Ergo Proxy !! Shit that was awesome action. But wait if he supposedly erased his own memories.. Doesn't that mean he's just going in circle to find out what he is ? Now I want to know his and Monad's history behind all this fuss. Monad seems to have just suffered from all this ordeal. |
unclesnapple said: I'm still very confused by the blonde guy's motives. He was trying to explain the goodness of destruction and why all those people had to die and why they're a "lie" and it confused me to all Hell. I'm still confused. I don't even know, he sounded contradictory to me esp. whenever he mentioned his knights. I don't even care anymore. |

UserDeleted said: Also, why are there talking naked statues in this anime show? I read somewhere that Donov uses the statues to communicate. |
| Finally some parts start to make sense. Proxies come in pairs so pretty sure vincent and lil are related. Maybe lil is proxy of life so shes announced death but might not be truly death! Also pino knew, smart girl but why wouldnt she tell vincent when he was wondering who he was etc |
 |
| Tilted angle shots were really abused in this episode. I know it's supposed to portray Vincent's disoriented sense of perception, but goodness gracious. And by the way, proxy of brilliance? Ergo Proxy - the proxy of death? So they weren't being arbitrary with the word proxy. Though, if this show goes the route of the proxies being representative of the human psyche, I fear this show will become, by all intents of the phrase, a battle of egos. In other words, being concerned with action and style over any actual discussion about the themes suggested throughout the show. |
