The Most Philosophical Anime Ever Made?

This week I finally take a deeper dive and analyze the most requested anime series from my audience, Ergo Proxy. What was once my most difficult to watch series ended up being a self-fulfilling experience rich in philosophy that allows the viewer to experience its many layers with little hand-holding. Ergo Proxy offers a unique experience and may be the most philosophical anime of all time.
