| I pretty much agree with ender650. The episode was kind of short, but worth the wait. I'm looking forward to the next episode. |
| Hmm maybe it's because already few months passed since last episode but this one was somewhat different. Well, definitely more comedic than usual. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Great ep that old junkyard robot was a real comedian + the reactions of the two boys. I laughed so much. too bad that he "died" in the end,that was some kind of depressing. I think I don't really get why it had died ; ( |

| Great episode! Loved the transition from hilarious to touching, that this episode had. Can't wait for the 5th one ^^ |
| Oh man! That was too good, and went by way too quickly. I'm kind of disappointed now that I'll be waiting again to see the next episode. This one was so touching, I really wish it were longer than it was. But I guess what makes it great is the fact that it's short and sweet. |
| Can't wait until the next one, interesting how the rules hold even when life is threatened. But it makes me think that this has hapened before ... What is the sister planning? Oh well, we'll have to wait until the next episode to come out to find out. Would have given this a 5 if it was longer, and fitted in a good sub-story. |
 |
| Can somjeone direct me to where to watch this apart from Crunchyroll? I'm broke. D: |
 |
| A lot of aspects I liked about this episode. It wasn't necessarily funny, but rather thought-provoking like .. every episode so far basically. I can't wait for the movie. HD is a must. |

| That episode wasn't as good as the first three. But it was still awesome. Really enjoyed cyruz said: HD is a must. true... |
| I lul'd at the robot drinking the coffee. Comedy aside, it basically showed the evolution of the normal robot to the modern androids they have now. Not to mention this Ethics Committee. |

Very touching nonetheless, I even think this is the best episode so far (since the first one had an expected twist). cyruz said: A lot of aspects I liked about this episode. It wasn't necessarily funny, but rather thought-provoking like .. every episode so far basically. I can't wait for the movie. HD is a must. My reactions were alike. We got proof of soul and a crime against it. He lost everything - his name and his memories - justfor his former employers to avoid a fee. |

| I'm in despair!! The delay between every episode of this series leaves me in despair!! Very thought-provoking episode. A good look at one of the main themes of the series, from another point of view. It felt very short, now I'm very anxious about Act:05. |

| Awesome episode, totally worthed the wait. |
| I was so pleasedly surprised at the end with the Akiko cameo. Even if it was for just a moment. I want an entire show based around Akiko. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| Well worth the four- (or was it five-? Six-?) month wait. It was very funny, and even had a touching side. Masaki really seems to be turning against Rikuo now. And I'm really hating this Ethics Committee. Ethics? What ethics? Ethics for whom? I also loved the Sammi cameo at the end. Forget Akiko, Sammi needs a show of her own. xD |

Just an account itself (free). It didn't even limit me to the LQ option. I was able to use HQ and H264 setting as well (what's the 480p setting for, I don't remember it?) |
| Such a sad episode. Loved it. |
逃げちゃ駄目だ。 |
| This episode is pretty funny, yet also touching. Imo, it's on par with the first three. |
| Fun episode, but sad at the same time. I guess what I really wanted was the flushing out of the characters already introduced. This was good too though; I'm looking forward to more Chi. |

| It was pretty funny, but I def. like the first 3 better like everyone else said. It didn't really meet my expectations, to be honest. |
 |
| Really good, I've missed this! It went by much too quickly, can't wait for the next one. :\ It was funny, and the last bit was a little sad, so the mix of emotions was nice. wolfsrainXD said: That was sad. it gave me the hunch that Misaki might be the kid the robot was talking about. Yeah, I was wondering too. |
 |
| Bleh .. felt like another filler ep.. The creators should focus more on Rikuo and his 'dori-kei' behaviour towards "Sammy" (imo). The episodes are only around 15 mins! And there are only 2 eps to go! I demand more Sammy-Rikuo drama! |
| two more eps to round off the show? each ep is 15 mins too... would like to see how they do that! (if i dont die of old age before it finishes that is...) |
| that was really great! the music was very good. at times, the scene was very intense and the robot seemed really scary but then the music and mood would change so quickly! that was unexpected and quite funny! it was pretty sad that he "died" in the end :/ |
p r o f i l e 👀 |
| easily one of the better episodes than what is currently showing this spring. an interesting message once more. |
| Good episode, both very fun and sad at times. The preview made me long for the next episode alot - looks like Rikuo will play piano on Sammy's request. Can't wait. |

| Even though most people didn't like this episode as much as those previous, it was my favorite to date. I tend to prefer humorous things though, so that may be it. The old robot was just so charming and the facial expressions of the boys alone made me laugh. I also found it interesting that this ep. gave another short shot of Masaki's past. That aspect I find very interesting and I'd like to know more about why his family doesn't have an android and just what it is that his father does that gives him such influence. I do like Sammy and would like to see more of her, but frankly, I don't think she's the most interesting part of this show. Nagi is more intriguing to me. Can't wait for the next ep., but man oh man is it depressing that this is only 6 episodes. I got hooked on this in the first five minutes of the first episode, and that's extremely rare for me. Usually takes at least five episodes for me to determine if I like something. Oh, and because someone asked earlier, if you want to watch the show, try galanime.com. They have links to episodes downloadable from megaupload. I very much hope that this anime gets licensed and released on DVD. I would love to buy it in that format once it's all out. |
| Sad but great episode. Next episode can't come quick enough. |
 |
| Can someone give me the links to torrents of episode 3 and 4? For some reason I can't find them anywhere. :\ |
| so awesome, yet so short. |
 |
| Very nice episode again. But if the show is finally complete, I have to watch the whole anime again in a rush. Otherwise I will very likely not get every detail of the story. :P |
 |
| My first thought when I saw that robot is to run like hell out of the shop! |

| The way Nagi reacts when she realizes that Nameless is about to die was really heartwrenching. How she reacts in the subsequent fight with Masaki, too. When he grabs her, and she looks at him, he gets a flash of something (some memory, presumably)... but what is not clear from the shadowy image that flashes across the screen. I wonder if that will be explained later in the series. |
| hmm I want to know what masaki is really thinking :o this was an interesting episode. i felt bad for the old model robot : ( |
 |
| A funny episode, nice one ! Masaki looks like couldn't take it anymore, hope he'll change I really curious about act 5.... |
 |
| Great episode, although quite scary in ways. Nameless robot made a lot of noise. I have a feeling that Masaki has a good reason why he's so apprehensive or whatever about robots. In one of the previous episodes he was shown crying or something like that in a flashback which related to something Rikuo said about robots, and now another short one. Could be interesting. |
| Didn't really have the emotion of the other episodes, but it still had it's funny moments and touching scene at the end! |
 |
| Oh God, this episode was so funny and sad at the same time. The robot was a real phenomenon and he real made me laugh. But his struggle to looks like a human and to be aknwoledge made him really touching. His death was really sad and now we know that the robot also don't want to be forgotten. Now I'm intrigued by the comrade of the main character, he seems to hate the robots for a particular reason and it has something related to his father. |
| Why does this discussion have fifty posts yet no one has mentioned the huge Terminator reference? A parody of the theme from Terminator 2 is played at various points throughout the episode, most notably when the robot enters the cafe, and the robot itself looks like it was based off the Terminator. It was probably one of the best references I've seen in an anime. |
