The first time I ever saw this episode back in 2005, I remember looking away from the screen, and then hearing those voices, then looking at the screen and seeing the spider-bots, and then I thought "wow, this is weird!!"

Yeah, I remember looking that up one of the times the show ran :)

Awesome really trips me  out when I hear voice actors from shows like that in more mature anime haha

Could any of us blame Batau for personifying one of the Tachikomas?  I'm sure I would do the same as him. 

 

Siri, Alexa, Cortana, etc. are all still pre-programmed voices, but the time when companies sell AIs that learn and adapt to user stimuli isn't far off, and I bet more than a few will grow attached to them.

And here's the turn.

 

A Tachikoma, a sentient machine, is spying on humans. 

 

It's why I'd agree with scrapping them.  I would love a Tachikoma because I know the series, but in real life, I'd probably scrap them due to fear of them turning against me.  And the spying backs up the point.

Batou not happy.

 

All the cheering from the Tachikomas (especially the beginning of the next episode) reminds me of..something.  Maybe Animal Farm?  I dunno.  I'm remembering something where a group is inadvertently cheering for their demise.

One could argue something similar happened in this country on 11/9/16...

I dunno if there was a theme tonight but frankly Homophobia is the only theme I've seen every week since Tokyo Ghoul was licensed :|
