Ergo Proxy - 12 - Pino’s innocence



Interesting developments. Very interesting developments. The episode itself wasn’t that exiting, though I like the way at which this anime is going. Still, I did love the little details.

Pino finally had a great role again. She’s getting more and more open, she dares to do more things on her own, though she still doesn’t lose her habit to copy others. She also gets scared for the very first time, and she openly turns Real into a “scary woman”. Still, an interesting fact is that she realizes that a proxy is evil, though she doesn’t realize an infected autorave who steals from the Usagi is evil. She still needs a bit of time to understand this.

The most interesting development certainly came from Real and Vincent. Even though it’s nothing special, it’s nicely excecuted. Especially the fact that Real actually tricks Vincent who’s in love with her, and actually KISSES him, in order to not let Vincent see that she was actually planning to shoot him. That’s what I love about Real, she’s a very strong woman, though she’s not an uber-mensch. She has her moments of weakness. In any case, Vincent’s days of immortality are over, and he’ll probably run into another fight at which his memories of Real slow him down, making him almost lose. Ah well, it does explain why he parted with his memories. I believe that he had the same when he was in love with Monad Proxy.

I’m wondering about Iggy, Pino, and the mysterious autorave. It would be awesome if the three of them would wind up together, though the latter will probably infect the former with the Cogito, with the middle one to witness it. I also love the way that Real was so cold towards Iggy, by the way. Including the fact that autoraves can just be turned off. It makes you think how many humanity was put into these machines.

Still, even though many things are going into the right way, I so hope that Ergo Proxy has a few more tricks up his sleave. His transformation sequence begins to get a bit boring right now.
