Opps. I think that didn't end well with the old guy. 6/10
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,
Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy.

Kind of like Frankenstein but with a robot instead. The end was quite tragic, poor old man.

I don't think the old man saw it coming to be honest.

Not as good as the opening, but pretty interesting in it's own right.

The robot copied what he saw and crushed the old man.

Rewatched this after many years, found myself thinking "this is more of an animation demo than a story"; looked at what else the director had done - I left almost the same comment a few years ago on another short he made (Tobira wo Akete)...

The animation, effects & sound effect were peak 80s! I'm impressed with the animation!
The old man didn't saw that one coming! 6.5/10!
