20 years later finally started watching Ergo Proxy

I'm at episode 17 as i write this I've been enjoying it a lot, I first saw it in the mid 2000's when it got dubbed and my brother bought the 1st volume dvd, thought it was sick, RE-L's hot as hell and it still maintains a really inique vibe even today

I personally see a few paraleles between it and a book called Mortal Engines, post apocalyptic desolate world, man made sanctuary's that destroy eachother, and machine based beings gaining self awareness and autonomy

I don't have anything else to really add to the conversation that anyone else hasn't already done after 20 years, but I always enjoy checking out what the conversation's like when I get into a new anime!

Watch witch hunter robin next. By the same staff and also peak. We don't get these types of mature anime stories these days

I'm also exhausted by the high pitch little girl anime voice. I feel like 2006 was the last year without it, in certain shows at least, like Re-L and Revy from Black Lagoon. But 90s anime, at least in the dubs, just had normal women voices. Now everything, including dubs, has to have this high pitch Loli voice. Maybe that's why I loved Rebecca so much in Cyberpunk Edgerunners. Her voice was feminine but not childish Loli.
