Wow. It's hard to describe how amazing this episode was. Such a beautiful mix of complexity and all sorts of emotions. Sadness, love, awe, mystery...

I agree.

but ... it's still kinda confusing for me, but finally more is known.
Daedalus wanted Re-l only for himself - ho selfish :<
aaand ... really. I think the only person Raul had loved was Pino );


Raul's story was really heart breaking. Imagine having seen your family murdered in front of you, your child (Pino) taken by the very person you believe was the killer. Now I can understand why his obsession to capture or kill Vincent was personal, in the end it messed his mind pretty badly. He kinda lost it in the later episodes but you'd empathize with Raul's plight. I was hoping that he'd be re-united with Pino even though temporarily but his fate was much cruel. He was not given that chance to see his "daughter"one last time and Raul is one of the many tragedies of this anime.
Holy crap were we supposed to know that was his family who died in the mall the whole time? Welp, that makes his character make more sense lol.

The final plot twist got me a tad confused but I'm hoping that said confusion will be cleared up in the next episode.

Holy shit this is an interesting and compelling show!

I actually thought Raul died while looking at Pino from the windows of the room he died in. We only got an entrance view of the room, they never showed the insides of it, so its not wrong to assume that there were windows in there. Also, they showed a far-off image of Pino, so I thought they were making us think that Raul is looking at Pino one last time before dying. Sure, he might have wondered if that's really Pino or not, he might have just went like "oh its a little girl (and she reminds me of Pino)," something which is tragic on its own. He's got one messed up tragic story though, great character.

Dear author, who wrote the story of this anime
You're really a monster
Why? Paul Creed isn't that bad?
At least let him meet Pino first :(
Pino must be really sad now

And the one that's pretty bad, Daedalus still alive and kicking
That's just unfair :(

Oh well last episode, the conclusion.. This won't end well

"We weep for a bird's cry, but not for a fish's blood. Blessed are those with a voice.If the dolls also had voices, they would have screamed, "I didn't want to become human." "

I felt bad for Kristeva, she must have been sad, not knowing the feeling yet feeling the pain and losing the reason you existed, yet not being able to express the pain.
Yeah I know the quote doesn't fit here much, but they still can't express their feeling like humans can so it just hit me.

I wasn't too attached to Raul, but the final shot of him was beautiful in a sad way.

Only reason I cared about Raul's death was because Pino cared about him. The fool brought this upon himself.

Wait, so Proxy 1 and Ergo Proxy are separate.
How did Lil figured out that he's not the true creator?
Also, it seem to imply that clone Lil was crushing Daedalus' hands and maybe kill him. That'd be nice. That little boy is a creep. Probably worse than Raul.

How long has Proxy 1 been sitting on that throne? What's gonna happen to Pino? Will we get more Lil fanservice?

hard to empathise with Raul wanting to see Pino again when he barely interacted with her in any fatherly capacity.

though, i suppose that the the last few minutes of someone's life are their most truest - and it just so happened that his instinctual father wishes to be reunited with his child came to light.

at his core raul was a good man, albeit a misguided one.

I swear, this anime has some of the best fitting OP and ED songs, I never skipped them.
Funnily enough, I'm rewatching this after 6 years because I stumbled upon a OP montage. It's definitely aged well, and I got so much more out of it second time around.

Damn Raul didn't get to see Pino before dying like that :'(
Though that end wow, that's quite confusing, who's the 3rd one? Another Ergo Proxy who's the real one this time? This is really mysterious, I hope we'll get the answers in the last episode!

So sad that Raul died just before being with Pino again.

Also the reveal of Proxy One was cool. It was to be expected that it was himself again, but seeing him as a proxy with hus normal human face was very cool.

Alright one more to go.

You may count it as exposition, but I for one am glad that we at least get SOME answers of the more straight-forward variety, rather than being borderline cryptic and leaving things up to the interpretation of the viewer. However even as we near the final episode of this story, more questions arise than answers.

I don’t normally catalogue shows onto my account until I finish them. I’m only making this post because of this episode. This episode is one of the greatest things I have ever seen. I wish I could describe everything I felt watching this episode and I won’t be able to. I’m glad I was finally able to experience this amazing anime.

Poor Daedalus got cuckolded twice, and by a clone he created as a coping mechanism for the first instance of it nonetheless. Raul also kicked the bucket, which was a long time coming, after all he did.
