Wasn't it Volleyball? xD

I didn't watch it, I've been getting really bored of ZK these past few episodes. Will download the ep later when it's up on torrent, though.

I agree. Though I just watched only ep 4 (waiting stubborlny for Sars releases) I thik that the creampuff thing is kind of clichee and boring. But guess without them this drama wouldn't have anything. I so predict that in the end everyone is gonna love the cream puffs. Even teh "mean" brother.

Like someone earlier mentioned Night should learn. If he is a robot he should learn new things. It's annoying when he keeps repeating same mistakes. And I'm kind of dsiappointed
Hidden:

that he needed Riiko's kiss before he could remember her. I thought it would go like in manga. He sees Riiko hurt and goes back to her. Guess it was enough for me that he remembered her name.

The cream puff story (it's carrot story in episode 6) can be added as a subplot but now it has become the main plot and is hindering any development between Riiko and Night. From the looks of it, maybe they were just being 'realistic' and never intended to have a human and a robot fall in love, or simply, to even become friends from the way Riiko treats Night so harshly.

Night IS learning, bit by bit, more than the engineers who made him could even imagine, and you will understand when you watch episodes 5 and 6. But there is no point in him growing if the 'reason for his existence' (i.e. stubborn Riiko) refuses to reciprocate the love.

Waah, so many negative opinions. T____T
I haven't readed the manga, but Im enjoyng this drama sooooooooooo much!
It makes me laugh, giggle, go all "moe" and etc.

Personally I think that the drama is being very realistic.
Riiko's character seems shy, so of course she's not going to be able to act 'normal' with a robot that looks so real. I mean, come ooooon. Roll Eyes

-edit-

Aaaah, just saw ep6! Loved it. Can't wait for the next ep. : )

Frankly, I dislike the drama. They should just stick to the manga and make it a high school drama instead of all these crap.

But, that's just my opinion.

We can see in ep. 5 that he's learning *like xento already mentioned*..
Haha, but isn't it much more than expected when he remembered her name? You've been told, that all the memory will be lost after a restart...But later on he remembered more of her...

I read the manga some time ago... was enjoying it, too. But I'm slowly growing tired of the school drama topic. And I think, it's always hard - no matter movie or drama - to make a book/manga come alive... so I like the fact, that they're not going right along the manga.

'Til now I really like the whole cast... well, yeah, sometimes Riiko is a bit more overacting than the others for me--- Soshi and Night are lovly and his 'dad/inventor' is hilarious ^--^

Somehow I fail to find the realism in someone, who is obsessed with chastity, paying a million dollars for a human-like sextoy that she doesn't actually want and then treating it like crap for ages afterwards. Alcoholic

I don't think it's the issue with Chasity rather than rudeness. It's one thing to reject having sex with Night, but it's another thing to treat him like he's insignificant. If she thought he was important enough to save from being scrapped and spending so much to buy him. She should treat him nicer. Even her phone got nicer treatment than Night. At least she was looking at her phone lovingly when she put the sticker on it. And she wouldn't throw away her phone anywhere. Even if she gets an unwanted/annoying phone calls, I doubt she would smash the phone against a wall or throw it away. With Night, she seems to be always pushing him away and not speaking to him nicely at all. And I think Night deserves more love than her phone cuz he did a lot of nice things for her.

You can argue she's in denial that she doesn't want to love Night cuz he's a robot. But really that's a very long shot. I don't feel she's in any denial at all.

If you want realism, if she was so grossed out by Night being a sex robot/toy saying "let's have sex" then she shouldn't have saved him from being scrapped. It should have ended when Night was taken back.

Personally, I think this drama is a bit disappointing. I read the manga before watching this and I liked how "human" Night was in the series albeit a robot. His feelings and the way he showed his feelings were cute. In this one, Night is so mechanical and I find myself liking the scenes between Soushi and Riiko rather than Riiko and Night which was the case while reading the manga.

Another gripe that I have with this series is that it seems pretty static in the case of the relationship between Night and Riiko. She still treats him somewhat the same as can be expected at the beginning of each episode and then in the end he does something touching and she's happy.

Anyway, that's all I can add about this series for now. I hope it picks up although it's hard to say now that we're already at episode 5.
