Reviews
An Original Take on AI but with Flaws
Although AI fuelled robots that function like humans aren't exactly new, this futuristic drama has very creative takes on AI and the future. The episodes are short and breezy and the tone is very light, for a while. However, the mood shifts halfway. It was enough of a change to make me only want to watch one 24 minute episode at a time since there was too much to take in. The show poses some major questions regarding the future: can AI possibly replace humans as companions? How different are humans from futuristic AI? How should AI technology be regulated?Though the premises are fine on paper, the actual show leaves much to be desired. Tsumiki is not an interesting protagonist and lacks some vital qualities and I am quite surprised by how he still manages to garner female attention. His choice at the end of the show quite rankled me and I have not been able to reconcile with it because he had better options. Shukugawa is good in making us consider the ethics of AI. People may find him creepy and they should. Takama is too poorly fleshed out but due to lack of screenplay, not lack of acting. Piple is a delight and just lights up the screen. She is awesome in all scenes including the emotional.
