>>282540316This is sounding really unrealistic, there's no way a woman would wait hundreds of years even after turning into a robot for one guy. His girlfriend moved on and maybe later uploaded her personality or something, but thats all.
>>282542940All the girls have fiveheads

Hello, fellow PA works originals appreciators.
>>282541126All designs feel kinda off, like their heads are too big for their body. Even more than usual anime style does it.
>>282541147why is she bald?
>>282541147Ugly because brown, dropped
HibiMeshi was good, so the roulette says this one will be bad
>>282546524Sincerely that’s how it should be. I don’t need lowbrow smut
Probably will have better romance than the last few shows
Is this one or two cour?
>>282547632We just don't know.
>>28254736812 episode romance sucks.
>>28254763213 episodes, counting episode 0
>>282547223The bigger redflag is numbering the first episode as 0. Kamitsubaki did that. And we all know what a mess it was
>>282547716I hope not. Anime originals are best with two cour since they are allowed to actually flesh out the characters and the story. But I guess I will take what I can get.
>>282547783>I hope notIt's listed with a total of 13 episodes, anon. I
>>282547899oh well
>>282547783Source is the same xitter account that constantly gets episode counts right for everythingThey also leaked Mynoghra being 13 episodes when everyone else thought it was 12 and even BD sites indicated 12 episodes until episode 12 aired and they had to clarify the existence of epsiode 13 and update the BD sitesIf you want 2 cours, you have SI-VISAlso Digimon will naturally be long because all Digimon and original kids shows are
>>282545220Nice would watch
>hetshite
I don’t know if it’s going to be better or worse with shitposter crying about AI as a concept vs crying about PA works doing tourism promotion
>>282547974>If you want 2 cours, you have SI-VIS>SI-VIS is a co-ed music group led by Yosuke, shaking up the global music scene with their unmatched vocals and performances.sounds gay and also like it's an advertisement to some music collab in the future

Too real

>>282540316So this is a native isekai?
That's a long ass intro where nothing happens.
This is like Vivi where entire first episode had nothing happening. This explains the early airing.

Meh, they didn't even introduce the robot girl in episode 0, hard to say where this goes. Basically the real anime hasn't even started.Production is just average.

what's with the curved kino bars? shit's retarded
Kerfus
This is going to be yet another Japanese struggle session with Christianity via anime, isn't it?
Yeah, give him all the time in the world why don't you...
This looks like a very boring show.
>>282549185did they actually imply she schlicked it to him?
>>282549483I wish I can fuck a robot as well
Another tragic robutt show? I don't know if I can take it anymore
>>282549524To signify it's in the pastPresent day doesn't have the bars
I'm tired of suits trying to get us to like AI.
AI is actually good, guysWait, I'm fired and being replaced by AI?! WHO COULD HAVE GUESSED
>AI gud ackshully nah, hard pass i guess it's easier for japan to have rosy pictures about AI since they're perpetually stuck in the 2000s
Made some stitches.
>>282549842Wrong. They are starting to hate it more and more too.
>>282548512That. and episode 0. The numbering is more justified here than in Kamitsubaki. This is literally the premise that was announced, ending with MC waking up post time skip after Towa gets shot
>anti-robutt postersWhy?
Last stitch.
ohh fugggg...
>>282549570>the japanese have no knowledge about christianity>then explain me how they are wrong?>cricket noises
>>282548727I mean, if they did, I'd have to question why not number it episode 1. I expected an episode 0 to be a prologue episode like this rather than Kamitsubaki which could have perfectly been episode 1 since the prologue stage was only the first part of the episode
>>282549974Because everyone knows that the robutts will kill anyone who isn't part of the 0.1%
Stop liking AI girls, they are not real.
>>282540316Towa!?!?
>>282549524They dissapear after MC wakes up after getting shot and frozen. So, because flashback/prologue
Plot only happens because of the worst security ever depicted.
>>282550064There is no proof that you are real.
>>282550025If this is your attempt to bait me into an autistic discussion, I will gladly bite. The Japanese have no knowledge about Christianity, and I'm not sure why you would claim otherwise. Just the fact that they see Catholicism(?) as some kind of stealth corporate agent acting for the sake of the palatial intrigues of tech aristocracy proves it. Christianity was never social technology, it is something both immortal and sincere.
You can't fuck a robutt
Goslingweebs' status?
>>282549583>>282550147It's a corporate event in Japan. They're not gonna have armed security standing by for a shooter.
Here for the future tech and AI. The new world has potential but I'm worried about it becoming background noise for the romance plotAre you here for the romance?
>>282550248>Here for the future tech and AI.The show was supremely unimpressive in this regard, anon.
>>282550234OK... but at least point the gun somewhere else...
>>282549483>your average anti ai robot fag is a 50 yo boomerArtist bros...
>>282550210>Christianity was never social technology, it is something both immortal and sincereOr maybe that is just yout delusion and the japanese are more right about it than you think.
>>282550097Pa Works really knows how to make food look delicious. It was the same in Mikadono.
>>282540435And?
>>282550248I'm here for whatever PA Works is driving us into.
>>282550231This pairing doesn't trigger my inner gosling.
>>282550185You are a product of my imagination. Npc.
>>282550214Try me
>>282550386It's too normalfag
>>282550362Don't forget the literal food show they did before that.
>>282550214Skill issue
>>282550347I am certain of what I know and what I feel. It's just unfortunate that the Japanese are so immature when it comes to religion. It is what it is.
>>282549483Does this episode actually handle this with nuance? Like does it show that AI and androids hurt the livelyhood of these people in meaningful ways? Or does it just show angry bitter protesters in a negative light to frame they are wrong to the viewers?
>>282550411>burger as big as 3/4 of your headI never understand how people eats these
>>282550248Actually, I’m here for the romance and the cute girls. I’m not gay enough to hate feminine affection or focus only on the cool "boy" stuff like tech or fights...
>>282549974The world has changed and people are anti AI now even in fiction from the ai voice and ai art stuff. He’ll I’ve even seen people being anti vocaloid now for some reason.
>>282550248I'm here for the cute robots
>>282550411>lettuce>tomato>onion>???>bacon>cheese and burgersWhat is the white glob? Is it supposed to be a fried egg but can't see the yolks from this angle? >>282550484Most of it will squeeze down and it's supposed to be a messy affair, like chicken wings.
>>282550377Based kuromukuro enjoyer
>>282550377I tried watching this anime twice and I just can't finish it. Same with Captain Earth.
>>282550411This is not how one should build a hamburger.
>>282540316
The pace of this first episode was weird. It almost feels like it was supposed to be one of those shows were the real premise is a twist reveal during the first few episodes. Like I wasn’t supposed to know about the future stuff until the end of the first episode.
>>282550646>anon leaving the thread
>>282550666It's episode 0.Not sure why they made it, could be a 5 minute segment in an actual first episode.Maybe they were contracted for 13 episodes and didn't know what else to make.
>>282550666The first episode was just to deliver the premise. That's why the pacing feels off. Because all the episode had to do was explain that Elonette Musk's husband was shot and murdered during the iPhone 69 presentation. So there is a whole lot of nothing in between.
>>282550081
The social commentary in this was fucking awful. It felt like someone almost completely out of touch wrote it.
>>282550569Yeah, its my favorite "let's throw anything at the wall and see what sticks" era of PA Works.>>282550593Captain Earth, I get it. But I wish you at least got into second half (or when this Miuna appeared) because I think it got the momentum after that.
>>282540316>Premise sounds kind of dumb, designs look kind of good, it´s no isekai slop at the very least. A panel of advisors and analysts will now submit your slop to consideration. Results may depend on what else is there to watch this season. Further shilling will not increase the slop chances so we ask for your patience in this matter and will get back to you in a future thread should the results be favorable. Regards.
>>282549451>>282549480The second she started talking about AI implants, I thought she should be executed immediately. Thankfully, bro >>282549509showed up to save the day. But I guess the world still fell to ruin...
>>282548407What's with the curved black bars on the top and bottom? Is it supposed to be implying he was in a VR helmet during all of this?
>>282550885japan knows just how to write these shows
>>282550967It's a prologue thing. They dissapear when he wakes up in the ruined world post time-skip
>>282550967My guess is the pod was playing his digitized memories back at him because he's a android now
>>282550917There is a 95% that this will turn out to be just more P.A. slop. But this season looks absolutely grim, so you might want to hang in there since /a/ has decided for whatever unknowable reason that P.A. Works originals are some kind of huge board event.
>>282549185>>282549619Strictly speaking, she was washing her hands, because she just finished cooking. Her shutting off the AI after seeing pics of him and the cut to the handwashing was quite suggestive, however.
>guy runs up on stage with a gun>the only one that shields her is her fiance, two security guys grapple him down and don't remove the gun from his hand, two security guys jacking off in the backgroundare japanese security always this useless?
>>282551081You should ask Abe that question
>>282550885It's like it's airing 10 years too late. Androids being a major point of controversy in 2038? We already have shitty androids in 2025...
Woah, I though my monitor turned into a curved screen for a moment there.
>>282551047>/a/ has decided for whatever unknowable reason that P.A. Works originals are some kind of huge board event.They are. Just ask Noefags how many years it has been.
THEY'RE TAKING 'UR JERBS
Oh boy, this is going to be a wild ride. Cute anime chick just wants to microchip your brain and gets her boyfriend murdered is such a melodramatic start. Also the show telling you that androids are totally the next evolutionary step of humanity and that RELIGION BAD is such as astonishing outdated premise in so many ways, but the trans-coded robots delivering transhumanist apologia is too on the nose not to be impossibly hilarious. P.A. Works does it again, the slop that no one asked for but everyone needed.
cute vtuber.what's her channel name bros?
>>282548604Shes only a year older than the MC and hes in High School and I believe hes even graduating earlier than his peers.
>>282551141More like anime originals are usually a big thing for /a/. It really helps discussion when most the viewers don't know what is going to happen. Also helps discussion when the story is fully finished and people can discuss the resolution and ending of the story arcs that are set up.Also it helps when it's a true anime original, and not like a new Digimon story that sure is technically original but it also comes loaded with everything that is Digimon. Or some "anime original" that exists to mainly advertise a new multimedia brand.
>>282548028>hetIf only. Nothing heterosexual about 'dating' a sex/affection-dispensing robot that's been trained on your dead girlfriend's data. >Now, he must ask himself what love means in a world where technology has changed the very fabric of society.Anime about RONERY [your self insert]s beating it to interactions with chatbots is just creatively-bankrupt, dumb and Chobits did it better. Keep on churning out them cashgrab remakes, Japan lol.
Damn. Was this the first folding phone ever been shown in an anime?PA Works keeps surprising me of how in-touch they are with the times.
>>282551240Probably an AI vtuber.
>>282550885Nothing of that is going to be important for the actual plot, I assume.
It can't be worse than Fairy Gone or Narenare
So does this have potential to dethrone Aquatope as the best PA works original?
>>282551303>PA Works keeps surprising me of how in-touch they are with the times.But anon, that's supposed to be 2038...
>>282551290I give Chobits a lot of shit. Heck, I give CLAMP a lot of shit. But one thing is absolutely certain, Chobits was a much better story than it needed to be and was a conceptually prescient show in many ways.
>>282550885To be fair, this type of social commentary is so played out that you can't make a story about it without it sounding like a parody. There's also not much you can say at this point that hasn't been said already.
>>282551021He still has his old bullet wounds. At most, he'd be a cyborg.
>>282549216That artwork seems like Eiyuu senki´s artist, Okito endou.
What the fuck is this aspect ratio.
This thread shows how miserable people are when they can't separate their ideals even from anime: They need shows that spout their ideology constantly or they get mad . Truly, true anime fans are separate from any kind of politics and just enjoy the shows as pure fiction instead of bitching about how they connect to reality. I'm here to escape reality, not to have more commentary on it. If I wanted to argue politics or whatever, I'd go to twitter
>>282540911You post this every time and every time you're wrong
>>282551458What are you on about, anon?
>>282551450Some flashback thing. It's gone when he wakes up
>AI technology is shown that is far more advanced and widespread than our own>people are reacting to it like it just came outHow do you fuck up worldbuilding when AI technology is already a thing in real life? This isn't some guy in the 1960s trying to predict the public's reaction to technology that doesn't yet exist and that he has no chance of seeing.
It's pretty optimistic on the writer's part to think people marrying AI avatars wouldn't happen way before 2038 at our current pace.
>>282551450It's probably robotvision or something.
>>282551498Look at all the people mad about the show doing AI stuff, connecting it to real AI and bitching about how the "commentary" is outdated or whatever. Instead of analyzing it as fiction, they're analyzing how it connects to reality and their own politics
>>282551441Ohh that'd make sense, too. That guy is pretty much the modern Takami Akai (Banner of the Stars/Princess Maker's artist).
>otoutou x onee-chanJesus, this show's really is futuristic as fuck.
>>282551518What people are reacting to is Super AI androids. As the show puts it, "Artificial Personality" or "AP", , not the AI that already exists
>>282551552Anon, I don't see anyone posting anything that is remotely out of line. It's just normal anime discussion. Aren't you being a bit too sensitive? Not trying to insult you.
>>282551566>nbrit's shit
I'm already rolling my eyes.
>>282551591Sure they aren't >>282551194
>>282551597You've just been indoctrinated to think bitching because a show doesn't reflect reality or preach your politics is not "out of line"
>>282550967>>282551021I do think that there's going to be some sort of twist where what we're shown in this episode isn't entirely truthful. This could just be a simulation or an edited replay.
Impressive English.Feels like someone knows Eigo there.
>>282551617I imagine that's a constant issue and just because it's widespread, it doesn't mean all problems got fixed or all people accepted AI and the debate is reignited by Towa wanting to release androids before she was stopped by her corpo rivals
>>282551644What politics? Fiction doesn't exist in a vacuum, so why would people not have opinions when the show goes on about the social impact of AI or about religiously motivated assassinations or what have you?Again, I think you're being a bit too sensitive, anon. There is no need for this kind of mild discussion to bother you so much.
>>282551559Scrap that, it seems that the artist is a woman called Midori Tayama
>>282551348At least the OST was great (I still listen to it from time to time). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnZmZIovVis>>282551413>There's also not much you can say at this point that hasn't been said already.Ideal if you want your show be AI-written kek. Imagine wasting people's talents on this - you'd have to be a soulless moneygrubber with 0 ambition or feelings of shame.>>282551458>I'm here to escape realityYou don't need anime to give you an illusion of having a girlfriend - just use a chatbot. >>282550593Even as an /m/ native, I couldn't get through Captain Earth.
>"AI is an empty shell that will bring damage to what humanity is all about."The pope, probably.
>>282551729Thanks for confirming you've been indoctrinated by the "all art is poltical" retardsFiction does exist in a vacuum. To say otherwise is to push the agenda of censors who want to ban any show with the wrong poltics and anime tits because anime tits are mady by rapits for rapists
>>282551737Well the girl in the beginning of the reply chain just reminds me of a design from Princess Maker, and the large fiveheads art style just makes me think of that. He was pretty famous back in the day so he could have influenced other artists down the line.
>>282551750A chatbot's worse than any anime characterI will keep using anime as escapism and you will keep being a fake fan seething about basic anime fan behavior
>>282551796This is tiresome, anon.
>>282551835Yes, you fakers are tiresome
Should have made a S2 of HebeMeshi.
What is this?A blender pipeline?
Shut up and post robutts
>>282551880Hibimeshi was a much better anime than I ever expect it to be. I miss it so much.
>>282551880Girls don't look like ugly realitic hags and it's not super deep 4 u commentary, so acdording to what I saw in this thread: worthless show- Only ultra accurate commentary with the right poltics should exist. No cute girls or the wrong kind of fans will use them as girlfriends when apparently according to some retards here, people should switch to chatbots
>>282551726>I imagine that's a constant issue and just because it's widespread, it doesn't mean all problems got fixed or all people accepted AIYeah, that's shit worldbuilding. Making people act like they do right now even though this technology has been integrated into every part of society for years is just lazy. What a completely boring and uninteresting way to write your sci-fi world.
>>282551941How, when it doesn't have muh accurate commentary and it has cute girls for lonely people who should use chatbots?
>>282551958Why are you having a meltdown?
>>282551941The show and its threads were peak comfy.
>be a ceo of an ai company>she doesn't drive a Koenigsegg Regera
>make the impact of AI on society a major part of your show>just as the advancements of AI have become significant enough in recent year to become widespread in society>hurrdurr fiction exists in a vacuumThis is like making a show about a pandemic in 2020-2023. But sure, it's the people who make comparisons to reality that are silly and indoctrinated.
>>282552008It's the people I'0m mocking having a meltdown over this show not reflecting it's politics or waifufags/self inserters still liking anime instead of switching to chatbots
>>282552053Shows about AI and robots have existed before current year, bootlicker censorship apologist
Looks like a skip. Damn this season is weak. I usually have about 20 shows on watch list this time it's 12.
>>282552093Step away from the keyboard for 15 minutes, brother.
>came for the robutt>falling in love with the onee-san.. fuck
>>282552144I can't even remember the last time I watched more than 3 shows in a season

>>282551616I too wanted the DEEP & INTELLECTUAL ramblings I wrote as a 15yo to be adapted! >>282549842>>282549915This show is made to piss off Japanese fanartists or what? They hate AI 'art' with a passion. Shitting on your core audience will not turn out well for P.A. Works... >>282549771We need another Luigi, this time for the tech sector. >>282551880It's a sequel to Komada Jouryuusho e Youkoso for me. A True & Honest SoL, even if mundane, is so much better than taking a 'trendy' sci-fi concept and shitting out a minimum-effort, derivative product.
>>282551880Kys hag lover.
>>282552209The photographer guy in this movie was so obnoxious
>>282552209According to your own side, SoL's are just waifu machines for lonely retards who should switch to chatbots. You can't defend them if you want to take the "anime is poltical" side. SoLs are for escapism and that is bad according to your side
>>282551081What a nation without danger awareness does to the people
>>282551697All the big studios have gaijin weebs working as animators and such to help out with stuff like this. Also actual AI translation.
>>282552144I'm a dropper, so it's rare for me to finish a season with more than 7 shows. But I usually see at least every first episode of anime that comes out.

At least MC has balls to confess and marry his cute onee-chan. Already better than 90% of shows out there.
>>282551450It’s like when Vivy got upgraded, and the borders disappeared and the visuals got slightly more crisp.

>>282550885All of their good writers are being used to write isekai stories so only the ones without any sense of imagination or worldbuilding are writing about things like AI
>>282540316Odds that the attacker is an older time-traveling MC?
>>282552307First time PA does a first episode confession since Hanasku Iroha
>>282552678I wondered if they’d do that, but he has the bullet hope scars and it would be weird to recreate those unless someone explicitly wants to trick him.Or unless his brain died, but the AI chip she was talking brought his body back.
>>282552289That is true

Where is PA going with this one? I hope the robutt service is plentiful at least.
Post android/humanoid robot shows that are passable to watch and much better investment of your time than this.

>>282552795>All of their good writers are being used to write isekai storiesIf those are the good stories, it’s over..
>>282553049Inuyashiki is pure QUALITY. But I will always recommend it because it's only good Kubo story and it's especially worthwhile if you're into Kubo lore.

I think people are taking this episode too seriously. Just look at those character designs >>282541126 >>282541137 >>282541147I don't think the rest of the anime will be about the moral ramifications of AI. It's all just a setup to have cute robot girls.
>>282553229>Who?Sorry, meant to say Oku. I'm mentally retarded.>Where? Anyway, I forgive MAPPA for they saved anime with it.I'm very happy to agree with you on this one. In more ways than one. Inuyashiki is definitely a worthy show.
>>282553214She seemed like she was talking about implanting AI chips into our bodies so it can be with us 24/7, so yes.However she tanked it pretty well
>>282553301They would honestly have been better off not releasing this episode if that is the case.
>>282553214No. Despite the fact that what she was trying to push was gravely immoral and extremely cringe.
>>282553229>PlanetarianAh yes, that's the one. Specifically the "Hoshi no Hito" movie that compiled all the OVA episodes with an extra framing story. Gonna rewatch it over the weekend, thanks.

>>282553301>>282553326So...another Gundam: Witch from Mercury situation where the prologue is completely serious, but the rest of the show is dumbed down school/shipperfagging crap that hardly explores the themes introduced in said prologue?

Remember GitS: SAC 2 with the consciousness uploading conclusion? That was more tragic and romantic than anything this show will present, I can guarantee.
>>282553049
>>282549483>>282550429I just love how they all seem to be old (middle-age at best) people when the ones most affected by the AI apocalypse are the young (students, people just entering the workforce being replaced by AI for junior roles etc.). >>282553764WAKE ME UP INSIDE
>>282553742There isn't a single SAC series that isn't extremely high quality sci-fi storytelling. And that includes the visual dogvomit that I.G produced and Netflix published. It isn't fair to bring up SAC and compare it to PA Works slop.
BIG TOWAS

>>282553443I fucking hope so
>>282554281>>282554357Twintails for me please
>>282554445The synopsis says 200 years.
>>282554127Didn't something like this just happen? They tried to make an official Pope AI chatbot but the Pope himself shot it down with similar rhetoric. Hilariously prescient.
>>282554445200 years
>>282553966Eh, why not? They could have made a frivolous waifufag bait show with no thematic ambition, but the studio itself CHOSE to be compared to GitS and other distinguished stories in the genre by going hard into the sci-fi worldbuilding and the AI plot when those elements could have been handwaved and the real romp featuring pic-related and the like could have started right away. Shot themselves in the foot, if you ask me.
I liked it
The samefagging is getting too obvious
>>282555149Post examples or GTFO.
>>282555173I bet the robot dog is still alive.
>>282552144>>282552187>>282552203This strategy of approaching new seasons has always slightly irritated me. How do you judge what to watch and what to skip? Because years ago, I tried to decide by reading synopsises, but I found that most of them suck at conveying what's interesting about a show. So for over ten years I've done like >>282552302and started every show and dropping the boring ones. I can't even imagine just starting a literal handful of shows each season...
>>282555374The AI of the dog is inside her >>282541147
>>282555402I look up the source material. If light/web novel - steer clear. If game/visual novel - approach with caution. If manga - check the manga first.
>>282555479ok yeah lemme just look up the source material for this onefucking retard
>>282554950It's better to have no thematic ambition than it is to fumble it completely. Right now, I can't say if the first episode speaks for the rest of the series, but it certainly doesn't bode well.
>>282549483>don't want to be replaced by robots>okay with being replaced by immigrantshmm...
>>282550817We love Lavi here buddy
>>282555402One or two weeks before the season starts, I skim a site like Livechart and read the synopsis and genre/theme tags for every title. If I don't find a show actively off-putting, I watch the PV. If that doesn't bore or annoy me, I watch the first ep. And if a show has staff I've been impressed with before, it gets an automatic watch.There are genres I just don't care for, so that often cuts it down to 20-30 titles in just the first step. After the PVs, it's usually down to 15-20. I try to whittle it down further to 10-15 after the first few eps, but sometimes there are seasons like this Summer where I still end up juggling 25 shows.Also, they may say you shouldn't judge a book/anime by its cover, but I find you can often tell whether the art direction will be any good from the promo pic alone.
>>282555429Why do anime originals love to reveal information in advance that spoils parts of the show?
>>282555972I just made that up.
>>282556035Please god let it be true. It would be so funny.
>>282554281cute robohag>>282554357those hips looks really lewd ew hot, i like AI now
It's impressive how many anons can't comprehend the concept of episode 0
>>282551697Ironically, that text was all clearly generated by AI. In case the single-paragraph subsections didn't tip you off, look closer at the introduction and you'll find...>delveYep.
Nice character interactions, not so great plot. Hope the show proper either focuses on the former or gets drastically better at setting up and unraveling the latter.
It took less than an episode to resolve the "will they, won't they" bullshit. This AI would probably try to self-delete itself after watching just one season of Kanokari.
>>282550234Its more how they let him even get up on stage, or better yet begin walking towards it without the security at least being suspicious. As soon as he starts climbing I wouldve imagined he would be rushed, and thats assuming theres not staff below the stage. Sure its a Jap event but that one seems to have international ramificatiosn and thus security would be higher.
>>282541147I will now watch your anime.By the way, do the character designs remind anyone else of Conan?
>>282550234They even raised early on the episode how they were going to raise security for her around the house. This was clearly something they thought about, but then for the big major public event just decided to ignore for plot reasons.It's not a major issue, but it is on the whole pretty silly.
>>282556766>do the character designs remind anyone else of Conan?yes, especially the faces
I fucking missed Kayano Ai so much, I'm glad she finally paid off her debt to China so we can hear her again.
>>282554153ugh holy fuck that was bad
>>282556986what debt?
>>282557062Paying respects to war criminals
>>282549185I thought you all were joking until she turned off the AI and asked for a minute.
>>282557172Yeah, I hope they keep up with the lewdness once the robutts are introduced
wait did she schlick her cunt?
predict what's gonna happen
>>282557427The whole thing is a dream after he got shot. They even foreshadowed it right at the start
>>282557427All the robutts die a brutal death and MC ends up alone and miserable
>>282550418You sound like a schizo certain in his fantasies. They are "immature" about religion because they don't have a need for it, and neither did most of humanity until a jew on a stick invented it.
>>282557427Everything ends up OK and all the androids live long happy lives, definitely NOT used as power sources, forcibly turned off, forced to watched everyone they love die, or any other tragedy
omg DID THEY DIERED???
>>282555402>most of them suck at conveying what's interesting about a show.There's nothing interesting about most shows. The synopsis way will filter 99% of shit shows and the 1% of good shows that slip past the cracks will come back through word of mouth
>just be yourself
>>282557427If he's not just a robot clone himself, my guess was she survived and went all in on creating enhanced coordinator superhumans to revive him, fully crossing the line of playing God. The assassination attempt probably turned him into a martyr and let her steamroll past every block, ultimately going way too far and causing Humanity to Decline. The gunman was completely right, but killed the wrong person and doomed everyone as a result.
>>282555402The 3 episode rule has existed longer than most anons today have been alive
>>282551081You have tremendous advantage as the attacker.
>>282553301yeah, I think that's why they made an Episode 0. they needed a lore dump, but probably felt like it would be too clunky for the actual show.

>>282557427the robogf look-alike is actually the assistant AP. GF is responsible for the dystopian society, maybe still around in charge. MC's been chipped with notNeurolink, not fully human, not fully bot
>>282552187this summer 2025 was the only season since 2012 that I watched more than 3 shows in a season.
>>282554048people on /a/ are too young to even know what that is.
>>282550231I survived the sudden gut punch.
>>282550400hopefully that's the point. he had a chance for a normalfag relationship, missed his shot well, in a way I guess the shot didn't miss. Goslingcore drama ensues 200 years in the future
Note that over half the posts in this thread, or any thread on /a/, is made by people whose only knowledge of the episode/anime in question is screenshots and webms posted here.
>Takiri>Ichikishima>TagitsuHello there fellow Tojis.
Finish the episode, I'm not gonna bother with the series. This is a topic that's so completely played out that it's incredibly hard to create a work that manages to offer a new perspective on the matter. Which is fine, I don't mind if they want to regurgitate for the hundredth time the same themes that have been thoroughly explored for decades, but what I can't tolerate is the cringe-inducing character writing that makes it seem as if the series was written by teenagers who think shit like this >>282551616 is thought-provoking.
Also known as: Transcendence (2014 film)
>>282558175The three episode rule is a filthy evil meme. If you've watched anime long enough, you can smell trash from a mile away. You don't even need half an episode for that.
>>282557603Why are you even replying? What is the point of your post?
>>282560827A lot of anime series have first episode with a twist ending, and only second one gets the story started in earnest. So watching at least 2 episodes is appropriate.
It won't be better than plastic memories.
>>282558069She also probably put her brain in the robot, or her personality or something.
>>282560885I agree that it depends on the show, it's very contextual. Originals for example are always an unknown quantity. Adaptations you can search for the source material and draw your own conclusions, though some rare adaptations are very high effort and go above and beyond to either enhance or even fixe the source. But having said that, decades of anime watching are enough to develop a spider sense for whether something is trash or not. The real problem is finding the good trash, and that may even depend on a lot of externalities like whether or not there are fun threads or what have you. But yes, you're correct, it's not a solid rule.
>>282561021Nah, she trained her AI/AP to become something like her. That's why the AI said she was envious of their relationship.
>>282540316No harem? No buy.
>>282561030>decades of anime watching are enough to develop a spider sense for whether something isto your taste or not.
>>282561192What did he mean by this?
>another AI shitThis kind of sci-fi stuff can't work anymore simply because we (in real life) have nothing (good) to expect/anticipate in the future.sci-fi thrives on society's general optimism, but that's no longer a thing since we all expect future degradation of everything nowadays.
>>282552274I love how the cops are so bad at restraining that fucker that he still manages to fire off 3 shots without much of a problem
HOLY FOREHEAD is no one going to mention these hairlines that threaten to engulf the world?! Look how she >>282549164 reflexively covers it up too.
Dude if you wanted to write incest just write incest don’t try to bullshit me with this AI and post apocalypse shit, i bet in 4 episodes he’ll find his step sister and thanks to AI now they’ll be blood related and they’ll fuck
>>282557427He finds his gf's preserved brain, puts it into robot body and impregnates it.
>>282557427Can we just get onmyu kaiten rebirth again? Ok i see 2 possibilities>She kept his body and kept him alive with AI enhancements, she purposely destroyed the world to create a better humanityOr she went full evil, and the cute assistant AI predicted she’d do evil shit so AI made a clone of him, and this clone will be the only person capable of saving the world because his DNA gives him admin access to some important shit
what was this sequence about, I thought an assassin was following them, waiting to stab her at the confession scene. But then they survived, so I thought it was a paparazzi trying to cook some forbidden sibling love drama, but then it just time skipped a year
>>282562313I think it was just a way to represent their hearts beating faster
