| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This robot is awesome  It was interesting to see a little bit of world building in this show. For what's worth, I think this series continues to expand its science expenditures. |
 |
| That robot looks scary af, and him looking at the swimsuits girls was rather creepy. And I was glad that girl was saved. |
 |
| Another nice episode!! A robot to "stolen" or kill a other robot, althoug first try to kill the young girl :/ But Atom (Six) protect her, and he shows that he has consciousness!!!! F14? Not the aeroplane name, is the name of the cat, February 14th!!! kekeke interesting name ;) |

| Boy the nostalgia impact on this anime is real. Tenma and Ochanomizu has a good chemistry, I wonder where did it go on Astroboy (haven't watched anything else rather than 2003 version and the movie) |

| I am very pleasently surprised with how good this is so far! :) |
| Great episode, this has been really good so far. Interesting research pursuit with the whole ego-consciousness. I'm gonna have to kinda agree with what Umataro said about the development in AI. It's more often about having the AI react to as many different scenarios as possible rather than build an AI that can improvise and adapt on the fly. That being said, the latter is definitely much harder to build. We're probably still ways off from achieving true sentience in machines. Too bad all the other people at the presentation brushed it off as nothing. :( I loved how Six saved Ran from the other robot, the best part was when Six assessed his surroundings to analyse situation and tell Ran to stay put and that he would protect her. The final part is very bittersweet, with our duo looking at the wreckage and deciding to reset Six's memory. Six is a true hero. :( |

| Imitating... Moves... and Along with his Rapid Movement.. Atom sure can pack with a Knuckle Fist... Am I the only one getting Vibes of Real Steel... Because of both Mecha fights.. Demolishing each other as they clash.. and never been this... awesome...!! For Sure |

| It was nice to see Six saving Ran. Too bad they decided to wipe out his memory. |

And I am sooo looking forward to it! |
| i'm starting to love this anime,the concept,the animation,the chara design,the characters(six is dope). my probable favourite anime of this season if it continue like that. |
| Deep dark fantasies |
| Its kind of disappointing how few people are watching this given the quality start. |
| Fuck you imouto, Six saved your ass and you couldn't speak up to stop him from getting memory-wiped?? |
| Sieg Zeon! |
| I feel like even though that one girl is going after Hiroshi, she's gonna end up falling for Umataro lol Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed watching Umataro own everyone at the conference thing and how enthusiastic he and Hiroshi's presentation was over the future of autonomy And lastly, all of the stuff with Ran (I'm starting to really like her) and Six and especially that fight scene. was freaking awesome |
| Welp, I pretty much dislike every character besides the two members of lab 7, but I'm looking forward to seeing how they develop the characters, and most likely make me fall for most of them. Loving A106's development as a character though, can't wait to see if he becomes more talkative in the future. |

| So far this series has been exceptional for me, I'm loving the chemistry between the characters, and Six is so cool! The topic of ego-consciousness was interesting, and it's definitely true that the majority of AI work in that field are more reliant upon multiple scenario simulations and delegated actions for those events. Looks like they caught the eye of the oddball with lots of authority so that's probably good for them. I'd guess that robot that attacked Ran was the one that Six fights at the end of the OP, considering the shape and the person giving it orders, though I feel that she's going to use data on Six to improve her own robot. So far really enjoying this series, can't wait for next ep! |

| So they are going to wipe six's memory because Ran couldn't open her mouth..damn sister, that's some way to thank it. |
| Loving this show so far. The characters, animation, good stuff. So awesome! Also the OP is damned catchy and the animation for it is great. Anathor said: So they are going to wipe six's memory because Ran couldn't open her mouth..damn sister, that's some way to thank it. This. |
Turtles_Hunter said: Ranxomare said: I strongly doubt Six is Atom. Atom is created a lot later. A robot to "stolen" or kill a other robot, althoug first try to kill the young girl :/ But Atom (Six) protect her, and he shows that he has consciousness!!!! They may seem to take some liberties, but I doubt they would change Atom origin story. Also, I'm very surprise to see Saruta from Phoenix here. That surprised me. Yes, you are in truth!! Possibly Six will be the base of Atom, and others consciece future robots!! Or in the last episode will be destroy and his neuronal chip translated to Atom!! Or dissapear, and Tenma recupered years later in a future!! Buy i hope, this little change in the plot and Six will be Atom finally, because is the conscience born! But in summary you is right, this is not Atom, is Six ;) Sorry for the mistake!! :) |
| Nice 2nd episode! Six is really getting a will of its own. And it also defended that 2nd yr highchool little girl. Looks like many 3rd party groups are already interested with Lab 7 works... Why is the MAL character page information not complete??!? 4/5. |
 |
| Really happy with the anime, we need these kind of anime now and then, screw those having a problem with ochanomizu's nose, it's an important part of him and he'll live to be a great person. |
| I really liked this episode it had a nice balance of action and character/world building plus there is some suspense building around the "bad guy" chick in pink! I really liked the fluid action animation and I really enjoy the character dynamic between those two big nosed dorks! I think this anime might just be the surprise hit of the season! I hope they keep going strong next week |
| I shall rule over the realms of anime and manga! Mwahhahahahaha!!! |
| Quite a good episode. Dark horse of the season? |
| This is fucking stupid all around. - Their robot is already amazing and they'd never have to worry about funding while working on it, let alone being considered the black sheep of the university. - The woman giving orders to that robot was seriously trying to splatter a young girl's brains all over the floor just to observe Six's reactions; that goes beyond normal evil and well into comically evil. - Then, the girl who was almost beheaded and crushed moments ago -she should still be in shock- simply walks away calmly, without telling her brother what just happened, and doesn't care about them erasing the robot's memory even though she calls him her hero. |
| I like this really much. Six is really cool. The fight scene is fluid thou. Tenma and Ochamizu presentation XD. And yeah I really want to know why they always reset Six, maybe to avoid memory dump?? Btw a 5/5 episode |

I think you are trying to hard. it is Astroboy universe for fucks sake. Just enjoy the ride. |
| Great episode. That presentation was informative. Six memory wipe nooo |
eXtacy67 said: Its kind of disappointing how few people are watching this given the quality start. I can sort of understand why almost no one following the series. What I can't is the relatively low ratings compared to worse but higher rated shows. Vindicater said: I think you are trying to hard. it is Astroboy universe for fucks sake. Just enjoy the ride. You are talking to someone who gave 3/10 or less to Space Dandy, Konosuba, and Bakemonogatari, while 8/10 or above to Akiba's Trip, Valkyrie Drive and Koihime Masou. He is complaining about writing, but if you compare these series' writing, it kind of discredits him. |

| Of course people aren't watching the good shows from a new season. Great episode, love the ED. The writing can be sort of questionable though. Why not tell her brother what happened, that's fucking stupid. |

| Dat Motoko is a fine piece of tail. Same for Ran. And I also care about the two guys too, that's rare. A106 looks like a prototype of the 2003 version of Atlas. alpha_shadow said: Of course people aren't watching the good shows from a new season. Great episode, love the ED. The writing can be sort of questionable though. Why not tell her brother what happened, that's fucking stupid. I bet this being behind two paywalls (amazon prime and anime strike) may be one reason. There would be a few more week later viewers if this were on crunchyroll. Other being newer anime fans give no fucks about astro boy (which is why they don't Yarr! it) |
| Quite interesting development! Looking forward to see what's next. |
