Dr-Eyes said: Average is not the right term to describe it, it was lower than average.I dont want the series to be an episodic. This episode's story was weak. Average Episode. |
| The themes that were explored here were interesting, but man... the art in this one fuckin sucked. I'm sorry, but the faces very laughably bad at times. |
| Super cool episode. Loved the nostalgia topic and how even in the end the policeman's wife loved watching old movies. |
| Finally! I really liked this episode compared to the first two. I could actually follow along and the end wrapped it up perfectly. Pretty unique story, too. Really good stuff and I'm looking forward to episode 4. |
| The choice of music in this show makes it top notch. |
| Great watch so far. I'm not the biggest fan of episodic stuff, unless it's sol, but here I'm finding myself very intrigued by the themes and implicated messages. |

| Oh, so the android was supposed to be a faithful reproduction of an actress? I understand it had dialog from the films planted in it, but the whole aspect didn't come across to me while watching. Thanks to this thread for clearing that up, as it wasn't clearly explained in the episode. |

| Seeing a lot of these replies and its clear to me that a lot of MAL wants their shows served in simple, over the top communicated sequences. All talk and don't show. The subtleties of this episode passes straight over peoples heads. |

| I guess even actors improvise. "Do you believe in the soul?" |

| Holy moly, what was that in the end? Something tells me the culprits weren't trying to simply reenact an old movie... |

| Based Certified. I love anime armpits. |
| WELP. that's enough for me. god i hate adventure of the week shows like this. |
 |
| funny how motoko shits on the stupid motivations of this episodes antagonist. i'm noticing that at around the end of each episode, theres some sort of message. a vague message but its cool how much you can interpret from it. |
| good opinions on anything, block = I own you |
| Can someone explain the ending to me? I don't get it. |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. |
| Dude was living out a movie lol Didn't hit as hard as the last one, but still a good enough episode nonetheless. I love the banter between these characters |

| really enjoyed the interaction with some characters. just got done watching the movies and it was difficult seeing much interaction between given the timeframe. the story itself was whatever. the little bit at the end was ok with the Jeri adding more to the lines of the movie. |

TheBlockernator said: Togusa thought that the android just copied lines from old movies and didn't possess any consciousness, but he found out that the last line she said about loving the dude wasn't in the movie, i.e. she came up with it herself. Can someone explain the ending to me? I don't get it. |
