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.

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.

It was definitely comical at some parts, but... kind of sad at others. I felt bad for "Nameless"... What was its name in the end? Katoran, I think, right? Poor thing... I'm glad Rikuo has a sympathetic side, too. :< And Masaki's friend, the girl... does she think he likes Akiko? XD (Well, she definitely seems to think he's a dorikei... Totally off on that one but oh well...)

I love watching this show. :D Short but every episode is awesome and interesting.

Funniest episode so far. I also felt the emotion of the unnamed robot.

So he was Katorasan

Good episode.

But the way Nagi implements the rule about considering everyone equal doesn't seem right to me. Sure, they're all customers but calling an android an android shouldn't be a problem. That has been my issue with Nagi from the beginning.

The way she showed emotion for that robot makes me feel like she's an abandoned android herself.

Also, the part about emotions and the heart didn't quite fit. Emotions have nothing to do with the heart. We all know that.

This was a really good ep i thought. I couldn't help but laugh at the clunky android at first. Also, it was fairly touching to see that the droid held love or attachment to something.

Hilarious at first, pretty touching later. Really thought-provoking, humans always throw away ‘old’ things, only to get the newest ones and don’t care anymore about them. A name, a person, a time, a place, a memory in which everything is condensed. Forgetting or erasing them isn’t a problem, there’s no sorrow for them, it seems.
I think, then procrastinate.
Therefore, I am.

I actually find the rule really good, but it lacks a little. I mean, if they're equals, why do they have to be equals as humans; acting like them?

Well, the first part of the episode was one of the funniest things i've ever watched. XD

It's incredible how in just 15 minutes, this episode can convey so many emotions to the viewer. Laughter, sadness, curiosity, wonder...Amazing series.

Did the robot almost have a SHAFT neck tilt there?

Easily the best episode yet. It was really sad, don't know where is all the comedy you're talking about. When he tried to say his name it was just pitiful, not funny.
I think with this my score jumped up a bit.

Katoran, huh?

I wonder if the kid is someone we know.
