| ZzZzZzZz... Jesus Christ that was boring. And no, it isn't because I'm complaining about a lack of action. It's just straight up boring in all aspects. Just a nothing happening show. Two bounty hunters seeking androids & beating it over our heads how bad Nean's have it over and over and over. Main character has like 0 personality. And like others have mentioned, the animation quality took a hit here. Given how little happened in this episode that was very surprising. I'm one episode away from dropping this if the next one isn't good. I was so looking forward to this show too. Bones + Sci Fi + Mech suits... How could it go so wrong? |
| The episode was cut abruptly. It seems the anime team failed to cram contents into the defined time span. With a few more seconds, it would have been completed. |
| Does the immortal nine and the alters have anything to do with each other? |
| It seems like that hunting the Immortal Nine is just a part of the settings which leads to the main story, and now we've gotten a naive freelance Nean operator who are getting involved in a right dispute between the Neans and the human, while taking on a dedicated Neans hunting mission. |
 |
| I think it's obvious the Usurpers are not aliens, perhaps they were a faction that broke away from the Asimov Code and the Immortal Nine is what remains of them? |
 |
| I can't do this I can't continue this is too boring bro thinks he's the 2nd coming of LycoReco nah bro you ain't him. |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| Very transitional episode but I appreciated it slow down a little bit for a little bit of context. The whole Nean rights conversation is very thought provoking and very cyberpunk-ish. |
 » Escapism. |
| Doesn't look like this is working out to be a very original one. Watchable, but for how long... |
| Last time we had some fun, but in this episode some "on the nose" politics which are way too flat and obvious for my taste. Also the idea for an evil travelling carnival is giving me Sailor Moon (and I mean the old show) vibes. When I think about it, those vibes were present since the beginning, just couldn't differentiate then from the rest of the déjà vu stuff. |
| What happens when Rouge isn't allowed to buy more chocolate - the episode. Also, is Naomi stupid? Because everything she said to her partner 100% applies to her as well. The argument they had couldn't have been more forced... |
| I am enjoying the world building and the issues between humans and neans this show is tackling. I still am curious about why the Immortal 9 needs to be eliminated, but I believe Rouge may have a change in perspective when she learns more about the conflict. (7.5/10) |
| This anime has no sense of direction, pacing or anything in the slightest. After what would have seen like an Episodic direction, the anime suddenly decides that episodes are connected, Rouge randomly remembers Viola and her free will speech thing and decides to go on her own after quarreling with Naomi, because reasons, and then we also have these random androids that somehow were able to witness Rouge transforming back in episode 2, during those robot machines incidents (there was literally no one there other than the guy that was studying those robots, what kind of stupid plot holes are you adding to this story, Bones?) I'd like to have some consistency on this anime, please. |
| "We could make the world better, but it's easier to just shut our eyes." ~Blackwall |
| Yeah it is decent for now. Can't say if it will be a drama or comedy oriented anime. |
| “Do what feels right in your heart. You will be criticized either way.” (Eleanor Roosevelt) |
| THE MOMENT HAS ARRIVED FOR FIGHTI.... oh wait, there was no fighting. I dunno about this episode, it had some good visuals in places (like the view of the Nean camp stretching into the distance) but Naomi mistreating Rouge really didn't sit right. She's going to have to work hard to win me back over next episode. |
| bro this is so boring |
| Okay I gotta be honest I kinda dozzed off a bit... Okay maybe more This episode is so boring |
| That cliffhanger was craaazzzyyyy!! It makes me upset to see Rouge and Naomi fighting, but I have faith that they will overcome this and come out as a stronger and better duo. Rouge has such a brave soul, I really like her. The politics surrounding this show are quite fascinating as well, I would really like to know more on the government background and maybe some history of what went down. |
 |
| Clearly Rouge got set up by the nean in the hat. So now how many are going to die because of it? |
 |
| Coming from a quarrel between Naomi and Rouge the latter was able to get into the Nean settlement with the lucky helping hand of that doctor. In it she's questioning her free will as well as other broad concepts that Asimov's laws interfere with. Freedom. Tool. Equipment. Hope. In any case, it was bound to happen with a premise like this. Meanwhile, while that detective is trying to snoop on the immortal nine affairs, Rouge is set up on the killing of Judal and no immediate masterminds come to mind. I suspect next episode will be full of action. Btw, is the score on this show that low because no major developments happened yet? I'm sure that Bones is still cooking with the settlement so I'd like to give them time. We don't even know how many episodes this will have. |

| Man, I wonder what other group of Androids want the same rights as humans. I think it took place in Detroit? Yeah, Humans really treat Neans like trash don't they? Seriously though, we got the CFN or The Council of Free Neans who wants the same rights as humans and Rogue got to meet their leader, just for them to die immediately afterwards. Clearly, someone is trying to set something up and cause some conflict but that's all we know. |
 |
| That was a bizarrely abrupt ending. |
| Damn this series is getting more Blade Runner every episode |
 |
| This anime try to has a more deeper story about slavery , racism, but because of how dull the characters are its loosing everything. Rogue don’t have any personality she like a empty box. There is nothing about her that I can talk expect of the tantrum she had the ep if you make a 'deep' story you should make characters who has at least ab it of personality |
| It feels like the peace mission was doomed from the beginning, especially seeing how the leader was taken out. It's frustrating that neans have no rights, and it seems like hardly anyone cares about it. Whole thing with the circus shit... like it's circus. |
 |
| Now this clears up that Rouge is also a Nean but without the Asimov code. So the Asimov code is likely a limiter which is why the other Nean have the markings and she doesnt usually. |
| Episode about freedom, is there really any freedom? People are bound by something, someone. Anyway Rouge was set up, how are they gonna get out of this situation. Also I wonder if Rouge really is a Nean or something like a human nean hybrid? Btw lol Naomi wearing glasses even in the sauna. |
 |
| Wtf was the ED transition, there's not even a post-credit scene. If only, the show was directed by a certain other director who is god at ED transitions.... The plot is still the basic racism plot from the first episode. Looking back, episode 2 is a bit of redundant. The expo dump with the Usurpers and war could have been managed on a different episode. |
| Huh whoa. I feel like Naomi kinda just up and calling Rouge only a tool was a little out of nowhere when we've seen them kinda getting along okay-ish. But also like if my computer could talk to me or something, I wouldn't call it just a tool or whatever. Seems kinda harsh.;; I'm glad they made her realize that she wasn't being mature about that or whatever though. Been meaning to say the OP is a bop. However, I feel the throwback vibes would work more for an anime that had more of an actual throwback vibe-- that throwback vibe could come from the characters, character designs (Naomi is sliiiightly a throwback with her jacket, but...), writing style, art style, etc. But it's a pretty futuristic and/or modern anime when it comes to the vibe and content, so it feels a little... misleading as what's essentially meant to kinda be a theme song. Also, neutral so far. |
| After seeing Pluto, it's hard to top how it did a discrimination against robots plotline. |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| She fought with her friend over two chocolate bars, she really didn't mature, that's why she got to know that city, thanks to the doctor. |
