So what was your thoughts on this episode?

That robot was quite nice, though sad he was only for this episode, Gohan really should learn to care for himself sooner or later! Either way lets see what's next!

I found it to be rather sweet, eventhough it was only a 1 episode term story. But a very charming robot and they created emotion in a short time.

I have seen many times this filler because I own a dvd with this episode on it. Its sweet and heartbreaking. I feel so bad for this robot. But a great character development from Gohan.

The poor, poor robot, this was quite an upsetting episode. I am left surprised by how sweet the episode ended up being, and how smart and intelligent this robot is. For all its sassiness and sarcasm, it displayed just how well-natured it was in its final moments. With its sad passing, Gohan seems to have gathered himself up and is ready to take the challenges of the wild head-on, leaving a bittersweet taste in my mouth.

The first filler so far, and seemingly, quite a sad one. This was quite the intelligent robot, which caused Gohan to care for it as well - even putting his life on the line to turn off its switch. With the demise of the robot, it is, of course, a heartbreaking moment on Gohan's side, but will prove quite instructive in the long run. He surely will develop a lot, I can feel it.

It was a little jarring at first that he met a random robot down in some underground ruins after running from an alligator, saber tooth tiger, 5 story tall bird, and pterodactyl. But it ended up being a pretty sweet episodes. It's nice that Gohan is finally starting to mature with the training. I'm fine that for a couple episodes, he was basically just scared shitless - it makes sense since he's a child, but it was getting stale.

A nice episode.

Gohan had a friend at least even if it was for a little time. It was sad that Mr. Robot died saving Gohan. However he now inspired Gohan to survive and become strong.

Edible clouds!!! So that's why the guide told Goku to not worry about food. Now this is good.

Despite being a filler this episode was full of emotional moments created by some amazing soundtracks and robot san's voice actor. Really, old animes have some great music!

The first pure filler episode of DBZ, but it was pretty good imo and held up to DB filler standards! Kid Gohan is a fun to watch when he's not crying, he's like a younger Goku with some actual knowledge. His relationship developing with the robot was fun to see and after its tragic death, it appears that Gohan toughened up a little as he walked badass against the sunset. My only gripe is that the robot somehow figured out Gohan's full name (Unless i forgot him introducing himself)
