it was also really confusing?? like a lot of stuff just kinda happened without explanation and normally i think animes overexplain everything but this one was too far in the opposite direction for me

I enjoyed some stuff about the setting (being able to turn your robot companion's personality on and off at will is a nice touch) but it just wasn't enough!

The way I heard it explained was that EP was cribbed out of back cover blurbs of books on existentialism, then some edge was added to the mix. Tatami Galaxy was plenty existential to me so it's not something I actively seek out.
