| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Lacia feels more and more like a housewife lol Kinda surprised how far they're taking Lacia/Arato already. Almost a kiss too. I still can't stand Arato's sister. Too damn talky. I'm more interested in Shiori's role in this show now honestly especially from the development of the previous episode. Lacia's behavior is becoming more and more human every episode. Lacia vs Methode :o |
 |
| "Defect" This anime isn't going to have a wonderfully happy ending if it progresses like this. Also, I found a reason to continue the show! Soundtrack is one of the best this season |
| It was obvious Shiori was going to make a contract with Methode. I'm curious how that's going to develop. The stuff with Arato and Lacia is just weird and awkward. She's becoming more human-like. Lacia vs Methode was cool. |
 |
| Not bad action scenes, the show is getting more interesting. 4/5 |
| Now thats one hell of an intro for Saturnus though. Hmm the video sure was nice. The goal of the vid sure was admirable. Given the prejudices against HIE's this will be a good idea. Still Lacia and Arato do seem to be getting closer though. The concept of the boy meets girl lifestyle though is pretty interesting though. So Shiroi took the leap of becoming Methode's master then. To think that Methode would show up to ambush Arato and Lacia though. Methode's intro sure revealed some interesting revelations though. |

| i have a feeling that this show has a lot of potential, but with such poor execution it's hard to enjoy and find it interesting |
 |
| Shiori took the bait.Wonder if she will go down with Methode in the end or be able to jump off. Sure Arato can't wait till he gets 18. Action at the end was ok. |

| I'm kinda tempted to just drop this. Part of me wants to drop it but another part of me is still hoping the show will improve. The logic and reasoning behind this anime with the hIE is very weak. Why did they bring back the stupid Fashion show as well? Sigh. This show has potential but that potential is starting to become thinner with each airing episode. Even if the show gets alot of answers and plot later, I just don't think it will be all that satisfying. |

| more than half of the episode wasted in robot top model shit 1/5 |
| Episode is named "Boy Meets Pornography" Not a single piece of pornography to be found I feel cheated. Anyway, I still have mixed feelings for this series in general, but it seems that they're finally starting something that seems to be a main plot with the previous episode and this one, and I'll admit Arato and Lacia almost kissing this soon caught me by surprise. It seems like things are going to get interesting in the next episodes, or at least I hope so. |

Welp, Arato wanted to smash and gotta give props for him for admitting it straight out but Lacia and her sister cockblocked him lmao. So it seems Methode will be the "sky net" of this series and calls Lacia a defect. That might be true since Lacia said she has no feelings and emotions but she kinda looked like bullshitting there especially given her reaction to the attack. I guess she is a defect because she is the only hIE who will become the most human like and they are not supposed to turn out like that. A perfect match for Arato who views and treats her as a human already. Looks like the attack wasn't ordered by Shiroi but by the memeframe dude and Methode had her send Ryou as a counter so things won't escalate that much. |
| Underrated Soundtrack of the season IMO, nice action scene at the end. |

Looks like the attack wasn't ordered by Shiroi but by the memeframe dude and Methode had her send Ryou as a counter so things won't escalate that much. Yeah, Arato was already manlier than a lot of other anime MCs by admitting he wants to screw his girl (well it's an android girl, but still) instead of being a dense motherfucker. I think Lacia meant that she doesn't have actual emotions, but more like simulated emotions, which sorta makes sense and the fact that Arato just accepts her possibly fake emotions at face value is interesting, I would prefer if that was actually the case because it could lead to a commentary about simulated emotions x real emotions instead of being just another "android with actual emotions" story like it's usually done. Methode did mention she's the only "finished" Lacia class bot, maybe she called Lacia a defect because she's just an "incomplete" version like Kouka, Snowdrop and Saturnus are, or Lacia may have some actual flaw that's going to get revealed later in the series. |
|
| it's already been confirmed but this just turns to trash when they go back to Arato focused scenes will give him a bit of break since he at least said he wanted to do it instead of shying away from it. but they brought back the model stuff which is still wack everytime i question the quality of this show it manages to sneak in a hint of interesting points even when it's not done well to keep me wanting to find out what the hell is going on. only in still since were not even half way done yet |
 |
| Lacia is turning more human like and waifu material. And Yuko just had to cockblocked the two in their lovey-dovey mode. I guess Lacia can have sex. But Arato has to wait till 18. lol |

| This is a hate watch now. Everyone is so far up their own ass, they've formed singularities. In spite of the repeated mention of EULA BS, there seem to be no consequences to anyone's actions. We've seen multiple terrorist attacks, and next week everyone is right back at school like nothing ever happened. There doesn't seem to be a single character not deserving of a punch in the throat. Well, maybe that one kid's dog, but that's it. |
 |
| It's starting to feel like the show is developing a lot of plot threads here, but so far most of them seem to be progressing well enough. The fight between Lacia and Methode was well-executed as well, but I don't know why Methode doesn't just teleport or go super-speed or whatever she was doing to kill the other hIEs and just end Lacia on the spot, unless the intent wasn't to kill her at all (in which case, why fight at all? It's not as if they need to fight to "meet" each other). |
| I swear if her “defect” becomes another plastic memories incident... |
| Mc is so boring, honestly, Lacia is more of an owner than Arato and him being her pet. The HIEs conquests on getting an owner is more interesting than that boring as hell mc and their cheap and force romance but at least we got a progress this episode with Methode getting a 2nd owner Atavistic said: It's starting to feel like the show is developing a lot of plot threads here, but so far most of them seem to be progressing well enough.

Pretty sure that's not teleportation but just a representation by the anime of how Lacia-class HIEs are far beyond the capabilities of an average HIEs. They're just that fast that an average HIEs won't even be able to react to defend themselves |

| ooooh this episode though..a lot of close moments.... lacia series hie ss huh |
 |
Well this is the episode summed up They just said she can't have these sort of emotions, but then she blushed over aratos remarks... Gaaah. So annoying |
 |
| Lacia is showing a hell lot of emotions for someone who claims to have "no feelings".... i still find the android characters to be poorly executed.. there really is no main difference b/w them and humans.. and these "Lacia-Class" hIE are showing more emotions than all the humans in this anime.. . episode was ok.. still previous one was better.. 2/5.. i still find the sister to be extremely annoying.. |
| Just when I thought this slow train wreck was going to be over in a few weeks...I see its two cour. Ehhhhhhhhhh |
| Still unsure of what to think about this show... The animation is mostly lazy (except for the action scenes) with lots of still shots. The Soundtrack is great. The philosophical aspect is very good although the story built around it... is not so good. I hate the sister. every scene with her is painful. ughhh... And that fucking idol/model shit... is really getting on my nerves. |
| like everyone else said, i still have no idea what to think about how the show is presented, but i know that i like every single female character in the story, specially the 4 (5?) Lacias, even the sister, and the story isn't bad at all, so there's like 90% chances i will finish this anime without any problems =D the songs are all great, and i unlike the rest i totally enjoy the modelling too, even if probably wasn't a good idea to show off Lacia like that lol also, some sites are still listing the episodes counting with the recap...like stop confusing me dudes :v |

favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |
tambi33 said: They just said she can't have these sort of emotions, but then she blushed over aratos remarks... Gaaah. So annoying I think the translators kind of screwed up on this one. What Lacia really says is that she has no heart, not that she has no feelings. It might seem like a minor difference, but in context it has major implications. This is briefly explored when Lacia asks Arato if he feels like he's being analog hacked by her display of (fake) emotions. It would seem Arato himself doesn't care very much either way though, which promptly stopped any philosophical discourses short. Can hardly blame him, really. If you take the stance that hIE emotions are invalid, you have to ask yourself what's the difference between theirs and human emotions. Both are essentially the product of biological machinery, so is it really fair to say hIE emotions aren't real? That's why the distinction between emotions and having a heart/soul is so critical. Honestly, I feel a bit analog hacked that I'm even making a serious argument for this show. I started out laughing at it, but each episode has slowly built it into something actually respectable. |
| So like, there is only one reason I'm still here and that is Snowdrop... I actually quite like her design a lot, she could make for a very interesting and creepy character. I was just about to drop this but episode 5, when she appeared, I just sort of fell in love with her character. That being said, episodes onward up to this point have caused me to lose some interest again, at this point, the anime itself is more like background noise, was actually writing this all down mid episode. I just want to see Snowdrop again. |
A Wild and Small Otaku has Appeared! |
| This show continues to aspire to mediocrity with it's continuous garbage plot. My lord this show is so ridiculous. |
 |
| Methode has now finally engaged the protags! looks like more chaos is under its way! 3/5. |
 |
| This show has to be the biggest disappointment of the season. Every time I open up this anime my eyes scream. The writing has some super great points, some minor thought provoking moments, but ultimately has the same consistency and texture of poop. I'm pretty mad, I really wanted to like this, but now I'm just tolerating its pathetic existence. |
 |
| This is so lackluster... everytime a new enemy attack Lacia, they are on even ground then the enemy leaves, no real bussiness whatsoever, bye bye. The fuck was this? The Boy Meets Girl was utter cringe. The next Top robo-model shit is so annyoing and awful. Everyone is amazed by Lacia`s look and thats it. Nothing new. There are some interesting points, but nothing new so far. Also, please kill his sister. |
| Arato sure has bad luck with his friends. After Glasses turned into a terrorist, the other guy sided with the suspicious scientist. The girl, whose place Saturnus crashed, is even more irritating than the little sister. And that's saying something. Shiori making a contract with Methode was to be expected. |
| You're a louse, Roger Smith. - R. Dorothy Wayneright This is my fight! No Senpai, this is our fight! - Kojou Akatsuki & Yukina Himeragi  |
| It is clear that this series has multiple camps with different motivations. It's been 7 episodes and all we've found out really is that there are a lot of people who hate Lacia but Arato is totally intent on banging her. Yuka remains pretty much the worst character ever created in anime. She's worse than the pretentious MCs; she's just an 100% airhead. |
| Not really sure what is happening but the weirdo prof creeps me out. Feels like everything is all over the place. |
| I cant take it anymore, this show is so not enjoyable and follwos such a cliched formula...ARGH SAID CHARLIE BROWN!...3/10. Im out. |
| I still don't understand why Methode wants to make a contract with Shiori and why she attack the photoshoot location out of nowhere. the only thing I keep watching this series is that because of some epic robotic battle, nothing more. |
| Lacia is best housewife, xD. |
| Arato would have a lot more success with the idiots attacking him every time he takes Lacia out in public if he ordered her to kill them rather than "drive them out". She's not going to use her full combat capabilities with flaky, vague orders. |

| Another hIE at the start looking for an owner. I'm not surprised that Shiori decided to become the owner of Methode. As expected she went right after Arato & Lacia. Good thing Ryou has decided to stick by his friends by the looks of it. |
