Schwarzwald's speech was like the one in " V For Vendetta ". I just viewed the clip of that, now I want to rent the movie. Big O is not your typical anime. Adult Swim needs to bring it back ( in reruns, at least ).
It wasnt a "virtual" reality. It was a reality authored by Gordon Rosewater using Big Venus. The current reality in the show only consisted of one city because Gordon's previous attempt at constructing reality when awry and had to be deleted. Even so Roger's reality was incomplete and pieces left from the pasts because Gordon had become old and senile by the time he created the current reality.
@SaintSanguine It wasnt over and that wasnt the truth. There was suppose to be a season 3 where the memories are discovered but I CN pulled there plug and we will never know the truth.
It still blew my mind when I found out the voice actor for Schartzwald is the same guy that did the early voice acting for Kel'Thuzad in Warcraft 3/WoW *and* the voice of Asteroth in the Soul Caliber series. Really talented guy.
This reminds me of Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man...wonderful and sounds like the epilogue of the book. Great speech for everyone to hear...but it hurts to hear the truth as well.
Incidentally, each of the Bigs corresponds to a Beast in the book of Job: Big O is Behemoth, Big Fau is Leviathan and Big Duo is Ziz. The Book of Job predicts that the Behemoth will battle the Leviathan at the end of the world. The Leviathan archtype we see in this episode is just a red herring. Schwartzwald is actually predicting the battle between Big O and Big Fau at the end of the series.
dude my comp froze at the end right when he stands up and says "think!" doesn't it suck when you're watching a good vid and your comp freezes and kills the moment?

Michael McConnohie is an awesome voice actor. Deep, booming, charismatic, and reserved for large hams.
When he delivers epic speeches like this one - it just lets you know how awesome the series really becomes.

too bad schwartzwald was wrong about everything and it turned out that the truth was that the world was a lame virtual reality
good ending though they could have done way better

Considering how much thinking you have to do to understand this show, they could make it into a novel, and it would be damn good.

Schwartzwald was my favorite secondary character in Big O. Good to have one of his monologues just a click away.
