The stigma against Androids grow outside public walls of the blast furnace incident, and the same producer comes to them in the form of an art student, emitting 3D projections. And within KNoCC, Neon takes full creative control of turning vandalism into art, but it's clear that the vandal doesn't appreciate robots infiltrating the lives of humans, which Esola didn't want to hurt their feelings.

The hurt moves from the work to the heart, and there wasn't any form of discrimination, which Esola took it to heart. But I think that it's pretty commendable for Neon to face against his aggressor and get his paint going back again, because Androids aren't just meant to be controlled by humans.

The sci-fi part of the show is better, but this episode doesn't have any.

Poor Neon. I felt really sorry for him.

Good job with clearing the fourth Climb Stage, guys!

I was surprised they were able to progress in Babel after the art bro's post (more surprised that there were no bigots in the audience hammering downvotes during the performance), but I guess it hadn't really gotten traction yet. But now that the hate group has gotten wind of it...

It's nice that each android gets their arc and grows, but how do none of them recognize the white+purple guy setting them up for growth? Every episode with this dude in a slightly new get-up. Though, he invites more questions, like did he (or someone he knew) kidnap an innovative artist, an up-and-coming actor, and two other people to clone them as androids? Or were those people actually our androids MCs, and have since had their memories erased?

A love-themed episode just around Valentine's day – perfect timing!

It's so strange how this anime can tug on my heartstrings with such simple stories: I really felt for Neon in this episode. It makes total sense for them as an art-oriented android to get the most upset over people using art supplies to spread a hateful message. Also, yet another person who mysteriously disappeared 10 years ago resembling one of our robot mains... My suspicions are ever-so growing.

Kind of chilling future where senior theses are graded by AI...I would hope that PhD Dissertations would still have human eyes but I could totally imagine overburdened Principle Investigators (layman term, Professors) would use the AI to assess it, additionally...numerous graduate programs already have grumblings of grad students who claim their Dissertation Committee has members that don't read a single word, so, scary future in deed.

Also the anime perhaps is also a statement towards discrimination except in ways that aren't based on appearance (these androids look and act like people, which is challenging characters worldviews)

Lastly, didn't realize JPN had the same sort of STEM butting heads against Humanities like United States has, dude was platinum mad lol.

there's many anti robot graffities appearing now, and it's our team's job to clean them... and they sure have fun with it lol
meanwhile Neon is kinda conflicted, on one side he doesn't like what he sees, the messages hurt his heart ... but on the other side, as someone who likes art, seeing grafitties getting deleted might be hard too ... but since they are ugly, it doesn't hurt as much lol imagine if they made pretty graffities while spreading bad words

next, they spotted a painter outside, it looked like Neon, but it was all an hologram
oh, as explained by that guy, the artist disappeared 10 years ago, could it be... Neon original form before turning into a robot? i swear they look the same lol

Neon trying to make his own paint, and tons of people recognised him, interesting
the guard guy says they can't trust robots, ofc he doesn't know he literally is using 4 of them right now lol

back at home, and seeing a post of him in the social media, Kobalt is teasing Neon about his smile, and in response... the 100th time Neon called Cobalt uzai (dumb? doesn't it mean annoying? subs please lol)

unfortunately some idiot had to paint over it, so now Esola is worried, and probably wants to try to try to paint it back to what Neon did before anyone notices
the guy who did it actually revealed himself, too bad the robots didn't try to catch him
well, Neon now saw the painting, and obviously, it hurts, even tho normal robots don't have feelings, these 4 aren't normal

Neon telling Esola about how happy they are to have someone like him, who helps them without caring that they are androids ... the painting is supposed to symbolise that
Esola also told them that they did the same for him, talking to him when he was so sad after the father death

well, unfortunately, that bad guy learned about them being androids and spread the news, and that alone makes a ton of people dislike them
calling them liers doesn't work tho, they can't lie to begin with lol

Neon confronted that guy, telling him he will paint it over and over, no matter how many times he destroys it, since Neon wants everyone to start liking robots
the reason the guy hates robots, because one of them decided that his work was not good enough, no matter how many sleepless nights

Neon was at work all day, even through the night, also nice ponytail <3

the white haired guy appeared again lol at this point it reminds me of Princess Connect where there was a post in every episode, showing the little time that one of the characters always appeared

next, a stage performance, and even with all the news about them being robots, they cleared the stage, yatta,
i thought there were a lot more stages, what does this mean "final stage"? dafuq?

the guy deleted the bad post, does he like them now? or was it just admiting defeat?

well too late anyway, someone already posted the same picture in the news
let's hope nothing bad happens
favorite "new girls" from fall <3 (lol i only watched these) ... click sig for older seasons

Kei and Neon have been shown so far so its just Chrom and Cobalt who we haven't seen I'm so interested cause the white haired dude had to have something to do with it or is trying to help them remember
