Yeah, a couple months ago I would have agreed that Ex-Aid is a very confused show thematically, but lately they've really been tying everything together a lot nicer.

I mean, it was always clear to me from around a quarter in that Ex-Aid is about death (which btw considering Ghost was about life nicely supports my theory that Toei deliberately makes these shows foils to each other), but everything beyond that seemed a little shallow until recently. Like apparently fate is supposed to be a big theme? But even now it's mostly just a word they keep using.

But as for the doctor/gamer thing, they absolutely fit together. Quite nicely, even, for reasons other people have kindly explained for me. It's the kind of thing that would probably seem more obvious on a second viewing. Case in point, I had it pointed out to me the other day that "I'll clear this with no continues!" is basically Emu pointing out he's only got one life to live. Blew my mind.
