Rodrigo Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 This show is not for the faint of heart. The feels are there right from the start. This story takes place in a future not too far away when androids that look exactly like humans begin to spread across the world. The android production company SA Corp. produced Giftia, a new kind of android that has the most amount of emotion and human-like qualities out of any other model ever seen. However, due to problems in technology, the androids have a service life, and once they pass that, they... Well, it gets pretty bad. For this sake, SA Corp. creates a terminal service in order to retrieve Giftia that have gone past their service life. A new employee at the terminal service named Tsukasa Mizugaki forms a team with the Giftia Isla to retrieve the other androids, but... Also, it's an original.

Shradow Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 Been super hyped about this since it's announcement. Infinite Stratos character designer, Steins;Gate story writer? Heck yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebuchet MS Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Just the first episode and it's already wrung out many tears. I have great expectations for this show, though my heart might not be ready. Candidate for AotS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tourmaline Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 I am heavily entertained by the premise being a group who has to end a decade of familial bonding in such a banal way. I wonder if they receive any support or funding in terms of psychological professionals or if they would need to look for help themselves. The job shown in here would be great for a sociopath, though. Not necessarily ever malicious but simply unable to empathize honestly. I also find the foreshadowing interesting. It's more obvious than Shigatsu despite being earlier on, with the Giftias being part of said group as well. The stories should range from heartrending to warming, if executed well.

EHN. Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 It was inevitable, there was a lot of foreshadowing going on up until now. I was expecting less than 83 days in reality. Hopefully it won't get the expected ending, or if it does then I hope it's done in the least sad way possible or else the feels will be too much too handle.

Thar Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Am I the only one who's getting an Angel Beats vibe from this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted April 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Isla is similar to Kanade, yes. But I think this show won't be like Angel Beats. It'll be developed differently I believe. This episode was cute. I feel so sorry for him though. I wonder when they'll tell him the truth about Isla's life span. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plots of the shows are different, thus Isla and Kanade don't behave the same way, but the similarities are still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EHN. Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 I have a pretty vivid image of how this series is going to end after how the last few episodes have gone. They're going to keep Isla's body but install a new OS, so obviously they think she won't have any of her memories. After the process is finished, the last shot will be her clutching the keyring Tsukasa gave her at the amusement park... ...or something like that.

Trebuchet MS Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 An alternate way this could end has Tsukasa see the more optimistic side of things - the ability to make another set of memories after the new OS sets in. You know, like One Week Friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
