Makina-san’s a Love Bot?!, Episode 8 — Why Fingering Matters

Kashou by Kashou
4 weeks ago
in Featured

Makina-san’s a Love Bot?!, episode 8, made me ponder the laws of robotics. Ever since I watched Time of Eve (now streaming on OceanVeil), I’ve wondered what constitutes “harm.” Most shows about intelligent robots mention Isaac Asimov’s three laws of robotics. For those who haven’t heard of them, they state that:

  1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
  2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Do you see the contradictions? The loophole these laws have is as big as an NTR wife’s oppai.

Don’t see them? Then let me present a hypothetical — a Kashou decided to hell with this and pointed a gun to his head. A robot is nearby and tries to stop me, so I order it to stand down. That conflicts with the first law, so it doesn’t comply. In turn, I start shooting it; then what does it do? That’s a conflicting scenario, as the only way to stop Kashou is to hurt him and take the weapon away.

That may be an extreme scenario. Now, ponder the power of words. You can harm someone without touching them. Time of Eve depicts this issue well. The robots in that anime never physically harm their humans, but nonetheless, they hurt them. That’s something happening here. So, whoever said ecchi shows can’t be deep knows little about subtext.

Makina-san’s a Love Bot?!, Episode 8 — How to Beat a Robot

Mimika still had Eita hostage at the beginning of this episode and threatened to kill him if he didn’t help her. When Mimika and Makina argue about that, it’s mentioned that Mimika’s actions contravene the laws of robotics. Do you see the issue there? For the past seven episodes, Makina has been sexually harassing Eita.

I don’t need to tell anyone with an IQ over five how sexual assault causes irreparable and often lifelong damage to people who survive it. Hell, some people don’t even survive it. Those who can’t live with that trauma can decide to opt out. Despite that, Makina doesn’t see what she does as harmful. That may be due to her programming, but it makes the disconnect more interesting. If a robot’s understanding of “harm” comes from what its creator programmed, there’s no universal agreement on what “harm” is.

But this isn’t an ethics class; we’re here to talk about OPPAI. Usually, I’m not attracted to thick, busty waifus. But by Aqua-sama, I want to wiggle into grown-up Mimika like a tapeworm. To quote Naota’s grandpa in FLCL, “I bet she does it like a weasel.”

Horniness aside, Makina’s a Love Bot?!, episode 8, showed us something invaluable. When AI robots take over the world, you can beat them by making them orgasm. All Eita had to do to get away from Mimika was give her the three-finger waddle. After sixteen strokes a second (RE-SPECT!), Mimika abandoned her assault, and Makina reclaimed her body.

THE PLOT … THICKENS

Since day one, I knew this show had a deeper plot than it presented. Despite everyone telling me I lacked taste and should review stuff like Wind Breaker instead, I believed in Kakushite! Makina-san!! If love bots are meant to be intelligence-gathering tools, they must be militaristic. So, when Eita tried to convince Makina to let Mimika reattach her head to her body, and Makina pulled out a gun, I grinned. Yet, that subtext remained hidden as the rest of the episode turned toward the comedic.

I’ve long believed that being a landlord means you don’t work, and Ooya-san proves that. I swear, the only thing she does is eavesdrop on Eita. Once the power of friendship prevails and they allow Mimika to stay in Eita’s apartment, Ooya-san waltzes in to disturb the newfound peace. Yet that works to his benefit as she mistakes Makina-san’s head for a ghost. But that confusion wards off Mamimi, who was ready to shove something into Eita’s bum.

Makina-san’s a Love Bot?!, Episode 8 — Overall Thoughts

In a previous article, Grand Moff Joeschmo1of3 decided that J-List readers are mature enough, so trigger warnings aren’t needed. But I often mention topics that most wouldn’t expect in my reviews. So, if anyone here is interested in or needs advice about dealing with sexual assault, here you go.

The Makina-san a Love Bot?! manga isn’t available in English, so I hope we get a proper conclusion. I pray it doesn’t end in a cliffhanger if that’s impossible. Life’s already a pain. I don’t need any added stress. We’re 2/3 into the show, which means if anything is going to blow up, there’s about 40 minutes for it to happen.

I can’t think of any other short-form anime that received a sequel apart from Yama no Susume or Ani Tore! EX. I can think of plenty of ecchi shows with multiple seasons … Food Wars, Infinite Stratos, or The Testament of Sister New Devil. But like most anime, the majority tend to be a one-off occurrence. That means the chances we watch a second season of Kakushite! Makina-san!! aren’t high.

For obvious reasons, anime sites can’t post about this anime. But the lack of advertising this show gets from OceanVeil is disheartening. Hell. Most people still seem to think OceanVeil is a pirate hentai site. My dudes, STEP UP THAT MARKETING GAME! You’re one of the few anime sites fighting the good fight. Shimoneta and Idiocracy weren’t absurd “What ifs” — they were warnings, and we’re living it. We need more people to champion shows like this. As Kakushite! Makina-san!! has consistently demonstrated that ecchi material can be solid entertainment.
