So I finished rewatching RahXephon with my girlfriend last night. Took us a while since she didn't have much time when we started the series, and it's been two years since I first watched it. Back then, I had a feeling that I understood most of it, at least the basic plot and some of the details. But this time I was confused (as was she) and I ended up wondering, who are the Mu really, why do they want Ayato to tune the world if he's actually their enemy, what's with that Lord Bäbhem, how come that everyone from TERRA seems to be family with the others...? I ended up reading a Wikipedia article about RahXephon which describes the prestory and some important details about the ending of the series and the movie (which I haven't seen), and I found so much stuff in this article that I didn't see or understand in the series that I'm left wondering how complex it really is and whether I need to be a genius to understand it all by myself. How was that for you when you watched RahXephon? Did you have problems getting all the plot details like me, or was it straightforward?
