Its wrong, WTF is wrong with Japan!

[El Banana]

All this leads to the good ol' debate of... can a machine be a peron? Living, in a sense?


And now... Robot Porn.
Here, here and here.

Robot love is so hidiously wrong. Chobits and HandMaidMay are THE animes I hate because of this. I admit there good series for someone who can stand that sick fettish but not me. I just think robot love is wrong. Its like japan trying to teach you dont go for the girl next door or at your job or anyplace you see thats willing you give her self up to you at any given time. Go hump your toaster and share sweet memories with it. Thats just sick alright! I really could go futher but not without really socking it to japan. Those bastards...

I really hate how you stereotype Japan here. I doubt 'Japan' as a people/government has much affect on how the production of anime comes about. Maybe something more like, how could that dirty director produce these images?!'. As for the robot love and such, I've got no problem, as long as it's not like tin can humping tin can. Skin....

Come on now... Japan is a weird place and you know it...

As far as loving a robot goes I really see no problem with it I guess. Its about the same as a human falling in love with an alien. Just because they are not the same doesn't stop their love for one another.

that is the point to be made. in so many animes, the robots are usually special in some damn way or another. more advanced. like actually capable of feelings such as love. and in any case as odd as it may seem just because they were robots doesn't mean that they couldn't fall in love with them if the feelings were real.

no, i think thats Freude ... men make up for other "inadequacies" by going for the bigger is better approach... in other words to make themselves feel better for having small peckers they go for big cars, big gun, big money ... and anything else thats big and that they think will compensate for having a small dick. The funny thing is that i never spent a day in a psych class ... damn, i listen too much. But yea, it could also be like that ... making an awesome car, a machine that is totaly under your control, and thus making it an extension of "yourself"... of i think thats how it would work... danm i dont even know what i'm ranting about any more, i hate when this happens ... <sulks off>

oh yes because of course women never do things like that right? *ahem* push up bras, breast implants, press on nails, eyelashes, etc..*ahem* of course i guess a lot of this may have been before freude's time, that or he was an idiot.

anyways, i think people are overlooking the whole AI factor, or do you forget, wow made by americans and what's this? robots used for prostitution? you don't say? but yeah it's all the japanese that think these things up especially considering not all anime is done by the japanese themselves. i mean hell at least you don't see them making anime about sheisse videos or something now do you? Sayonara.

Three words:

Eye-socket sex.

But as we clearly know both Chi and May aren't normal robots like their "siblings". They are unique, they have emotions.

So why are they robots?

I think Misty's explanation may be best, regarding the doting slave appeal.

Come on now... Japan is a weird place and you know it...

depends on the company. you could say that america is weird....but that's if they hang around like drunken hics or carni's. i know im being very stereotypical myself, but im just using this as an example.

[El Banana]

Don't sweat it, the world is full of strange anyway
