| What a sad story with the original owner. I'm glad Poppo was able to be repaired |
 |
| Mother was like: Santa exist and it brings presents to good boy, my dear sweet child Mother two days later: Santa doesn't exist at all, you should grow up, everyone will someday die! |
| A lookalike murder scene created, and the similar human-Humanoid couple between Shizuka and Joe, whom the latter is a product, an industrial AI. The talking toy bear robot Poppo, whom Sudo repaired for a kid named Kenji, his mother clearly dislikes the machine's existence. The toy bear was clearly a mistake for the son who's raised in a single-parent household family situation, it unceremoniously broke down again, only to exhibit behaviour that is awry. Sudo offers to take a look at it again for free, through this time, it's not just a memory impairment problem, but something that has to do with a brain and a heart. Apparently, it has old, stored data (which explains its old owner of Yuki-chan), and a reset is necessary, though they opt not to do anything about it. Alongside Poppo's problem, Joe being an industrial AI that's different from Humanoids, one that has no "heart" to soothe Shizuka's heart, is a significant problem as well. Kenji approaching Joe to ask him about having a heart, and the inkling between toy robot and AI, it's just sad to see that robots are often always reset to the point of their original programming. Poppo got massacred by a hit-and-run, though his mother Mariko is finally relieved. And if there is any hope to repair Poppo back to its original senses, which the Sudo Novo Clinic definitely is NOT one toy repair shop, Poppo is brought to its original owner's grave, where a picture of his previous owner and it stood. For the line to blur between human and Humanoid, it's beautiful, yet saddening at the same tme. |

| When Joe's eyes went "off" during the reset, that was one hard scene... This actually in modern times/ modern Japan could be very relatable, at least in terms of loneliness and attachment to things that fulfill our needs. So far, best episode for me. Going to the next one (skipped last week and now I have two to watch, what a feast!) |

| I'm sorry but that mom is such a bitch LOL I am so close to dropping this too ngl |
 |
| What is a heart huh and do robots have a heart, who knows. Wonder what was at the begining there. |
 |
| The drama doesn't land with me, it's more funny than anything else, the mother making a scene so quick over the bear, it never felt like such a big deal once is revealed why she was sooo upset, is like she wanted her kid to feel miserable just like her and then the bear not just getting pushed down the stair but being run over by a car right away xD might throw it into a river or something for more "emotional" moments. The dad was there. Another humanoid whining about something that doesn't make that much sense, I get it , robot-boyfriend was too perfect get over it or get reset. Next episode seems like everybody gets horny. |
