Texhnolyze

Just finished this
I thought it was pretty good
I liked how slowly the world was revealed and the pacing
I liked the character for the most part
And I liked the story
I get the le theme is about survival and the will to live- directly represented early on by the main guy's determination to not die and stuff, and that later on it poses these "higher" questions about what it means to be alive and what it means to be human. At which point does someone stop being human- does that matter if theyre still alive, etc, etc. It was quite a sad ending desu wa ne. I enjoyed it, but I don't think I would put this on the same level of some of the others from around its time, like lain, for example, which is a masterpiece. Or ergo proxy, which I thought overall was a tad better
Also, I would pump my seed so deep inside Doc it would turn my balls into rasins fix her infertility
Anyone wanna talk some more in-depth about it? I'm sure theres some lore stuff I'm missing and things I didn't get
Basically humanity was dying out for [reasons] and some part of them, perhaps prisoners, were sent underground to farm/mine raffia, which is a based off the real life plant rafflesia, and used to modify the body via texhnolyzation. So they were basically testing on themselves the whole time to see if humanity could "survive" that way, but the people still above ground long since stopped giving a shit. The "bigbad" guy's whole plan was to turn everyone into plants or some shit idk
Weird show
Dunno how I really feel about it
I dont wanna say it insists upon itself, but it kinda does desu

Sexo Doc

I don't care

The first half was better then the second

Was the triple inbred retard's evolutionary plan retarded?
There was no indication that it would end up working correctly and necrosis was already taking some unfortunate neo-bodies but that was because they were weak, unfit. After all he insisted he had 1 million IQ, liked to fuck his sister and had a crippling birth defect. A superior genius.

That's the point though
He was a retard and got his head literally punched off
Some brain you had, dipshit

Nothing really happened in the first half. What youre talking about is yoshii's plan coming to head in the last few episodes of the first half. The first half of the first half was pretty much just faffing about not getting anywhere

Wrong things done: 0
Look at that stache.

He killed an innocent prostitute for no reason

He saved her from living in Lux

Seems like a burnout. Get some rest, get some life back into you. People read more than 2000 words on the internet every single day. For a heavy imageboard user, this count may reach 8000+ words per day and they aren't the best words. Such a sustained information intake would put anyone out of commission. Take a break, it'll feel good.

I guess
All of the "people" that survived at the end were the absolute scum of the earth with no redeeming qualities so she was probably better off being killed

Why was she so horny bros?

Good cinematography in this anime. The few fight scenes there are end up punchy as hell just because the shots are well cut together. Too bad about the digital zooms and pans, otherwise the scenes display exciting sequences of angles.
Is camerawork and editing in anime a lost fucking art or something?

Wasn't the Train guy the only "major" character that survived (actually survived). Humanity by the end must be well and truly fucked

Hello womenfolk of Lux, it's your boy Ichise posting here.
Could you stop raping me please?
I would prefer to just like, survive, get a job, keep my limbs. Thank you for your attention.

Pretty much, but "living" up on the surface probably means he will slowly succumb to the same ghostlyness that the others are trapped in. Whether it's a physical ghostliness and they remain "alive" somehow through speaking via radio, or just an ideology of "fading away" or whatever, idk man that part was weird
He survived but probably not for long

It's not rape if you get paid for it!

Based docbro. But I have a question. I feel the same way about doc, that's why I had to drop the show. I kept feeling jealous and depressed that the mc got to fuck her like that. Why can't that be me? Why can't that happen to me? So I dropped the show because it just made me feel like shit. How did you manage to watch the whole thing without going crazy, bro?

One thing I just realized is that we don't actually see any children or babies or anything in the show, unless I missed them? Ren is the youngest person we see as far as I can tell. Doc said she knew she was infertile from a young age. Is it possible that ichise's generation was basically the last one able to be born? That's why most of the people we see are his age or older AND why there was this push by the faggotretard to "evolve" everyone so suddenly. That everyone knew humanity was coming to direct extinction and that's why there were such drastic measures put in place. Maybe Doc wanted to fuck ichise so much because she was trying to solve her (and everyone else's) infertility via texhnolyzation? She said towards the end while making him hug her tightly

this is what my texhnolyzation is made for

Maybe she was just a nympho tho

I simply live with the pain

Godspeed anon

ergo proxy is a steaming pile of dogshit.

Why do you think so?

its just bad. everything about it. i hate the "little girl thats wearing a pajama all the time" stereotype, yet that robot was by far the most likeable character.
the show seemed to take itself very seriously, but it was just some gay digimons fighting about nothing. and the MCs progression from tame to jaded was done so fucking badly it was almost funny.

Faggot

texhnolyze thread

actually watched it

wants to talk about the show

doesn't go on about "moeshit" or how anime is shit now because we used to have shows like this

Anon you can't do that, what are you doing

Anime used to be good but it's still good now
For every texhnolyze in it's year there were 100 dogshit animes
Just like today. Everything is dogshit this season except for mono and maomao's show
I make threads after every anime if I finish if I liked it ebough and want to hear other's opinions, learn more about the lore I mightve missed, etc.
Unfortunately these types of threads often don't do very well while shitpostbait threads thrive
Such is life

Why didnt ran just tell everyone to go kill kano before he turned half the city into caterpillars or whatever

Also ran was wrong about ichise's fate
Yeah, he was all alone in the end and hurt a ton of people, but it wasn't him that destoryed everything and ruined the city

Nothing happened in the second half either
Everything was dumped in the final episode asking the viewers to make sense of its mediocrity

damn I never noticed that

midwit take.

I hate this series' themes but I keep hating it, over and over. It kind of motivates me.

The epitome of show, dont tell. Excellent directing.

fag

Then why do I like it

The "bigbad" guy's whole plan was to turn everyone into plants or some shit idk

He was born fucked, he needed mechanic limbs, he decided that he was going to drag down everyone to a level below that. That twist at the end, where he reveals he just did it because he felt like it, for no reason at all, is immaculate. One of my favorite characters ever

I thought the exemplary quality of the directing was really on the nose, but I made some people obsessed with the "production" side of things, Shaft fans specifically, and they didn't think it was impressive. Maybe they just need flashy visuals.

If he was allowed to finish what he started most people would still be alive
