if a Konata robot appeared, you would save it, right?


Actually, of course, it's a Konata-bot after all : D..

There are really no words for describing this episode and relating it to the previous ones.

But it should be mentioned how instead of robots saving humans, it is vice versa. [sarcasm on]Very interesting plot twist.[/sarcasm off]

Yuuki will die because he is stupid enough to walk around, and he didn't take his rest seriously. I am glad to see Mirai is finally over her irritation.

dunno...my first thought was appendicitis

it's acute form mimics heatstroke, I've been told

also it's a really basic surgery when everything's working right, but in a disaster becomes really difficult.

Lol, from the first moments Kento appeared, I was wishing for KentoxMirai XD and then, here we are, robot saving and them saving each other scene 8D so cute with both of them blushing ^^

Yuuki won't die XD I've got a feeling this show will have a happy ending. Or they will reach Mirai&Yuuki's house, find out their parents are dead and they will live with Mari and her family 8D

LMAO Kento, risking his life to save a robot XD. Mirai's definitely right in calling him robotaku, but at the same time he's pretty awesome and the two make a cute pair.

The ending was a bit unexpected, but really well done. As everyone's walking off in the sunset with happy music, the music just suddenly stops and Yuuki collapses. Hope he gets better soon...T.T

Something about this episode really rubbed me the wrong way. Why did the little all-terrain robots suddenly appear in huge numbers out of nowhere? If they were already being mass-produced and emergency personnel had the radio control equipment & training to run them, doesn't that take away a lot of reasons to have them as an exhibit at the robot convention? And anyway we're 2/3 of the way through the show and the main characters have walked across at least 7km of the city. It just seems like we should have seen at least one of them, somewhere between episodes 2-6.

What really seemed out of place was that the whole episode was more structured around the robots than the characters whose story I'm actually really interested in following up to this point. The first six episodes had a pretty understandable focus on the earthquake itself, getting out of Odaiba, finding food, finding shelter, discovering the extent of the destruction and trying to find a way to get home.

And now this episode is about... meeting a robot otaku? Chasing robots down streets until you collapse (at least twice)? Flashbacks to other robot-related rescue situations? Humans rescuing robots from dangerous places? (And did she actually lift that thing over her head one-handed?? My god, that's one ripped little girl.)

It didn't fit the tone of the rest of the show at all. How much closer are Mirai and Yuuki home now, did they even mention it? I dunno, they all took a nap in a frog house I guess... it just made no sense to me!

Sure a lot of stuff shown at expos aren't out yet, but some of the things are, or will be released after right after the expo. The robots were specifically made to search for survivors under rubble. Barring a disaster like the earthquake, where else would you show the newest top of the line robot at?

The robots really did come out of left field. Nothing about them were even mentioned since the first episode. I'd like to go back and see if they might have hinted at anything else included later.
Still loved the facial reactions in this. Like Yuuki's massive grin when he's walking with his robot drawing, or Snacktime's after being lectured by Kento for laughing at the robot.

I still say they won't kill off Yuuki, no matter how sick he gets. It's not looking good for him though.

That OP never gets old. Every time I listen to it, I feel like listening to Howling. Definitely the best OP I've heard this year.

Goddammit Yuuki tell Mari if you're feeling sick for fuck's sake!

New character! Kento seemed interesting. I think he cared a little bit too much about those robots though...

Dat filthy plot twist at the very end. Yuuki's in bad shape all because of his own insecurity.

Good episode.

Well... save for the end this was pretty stupid episode. They tried to be realistic all the time yet they suddenly incorporate hitech scifi robots that are magically saving people.. not to mention whole robot saving plot of this ep was utmost crap.

All drama came just from Yuki running around when he shouldn't. Couldn't they catch him/restrain him somehow when he was ill? Also, how did Mirai climbed that high in the first place? And her pulling up and throwing a robot that surely weights at least 50kgs at minimum was cringeworthy scene.

This was certainly weakest point of this series so far.

Regarding Yuuki falling ill, I wonder if it has anything to do with the injury he received during the Tokyo tower collapse.

The stupidity level in this ep went sooo beyond 9000... Vegeta would be furious if he'd seen this.
It's just a damn robot you dumbass!!
If a robot breaks itself it can be fixed. If you die, then you fucking DIE!

And when will they finally get home? It almost looks like they're crossing the entire Sahara desert just to get home.

I can't stand the stupidity in this episode. A kid is sick and had previous head damage just runs outside for some stupid robots? And Kento goes risking his life to save a robot? So many problems could've been ignored if the kids just fucking sit down. Mari needs to restrain them.

Yuki's health progressively got worse and him hearing the the worker casting him off through the robot looked like he liked robots less.

Mirai got in a really close situation as usual~ It may have looked like Kento did something dumb but at least he allowed that robot to save more lives.
