What is it with scientists creating androids and just like, abandoning them so easily? What's the point of making a robot that's basically a human, if you're just going to treat it like a robot? Why even make it look and act human then?
Making it look human makes sense— easy to approach, not nightmare fuel etc— giving the robot emotions and the need to sleep is pointless tho. You’d think if a scientist created a robot with feelings/super humanlike its purpose would be to provide the creator with companionship or comfort
Unless it’s the whole “making a robot with feelings is a great scientific achievement” which is dumb, cuz the government put a halt on it and no one wanted the robot?? (At least, it’s framed how someone wanting to take her is a relief) and even then, robots with human emotions just makes it unpredictable and act irrational.
Also, if the government shut it down, why wouldn’t they just destroy her? If they’re gonna keep her “alive” why ship her off somewhere else? I feel like the government wouldn’t want that kind of tech at some rando’s house, let alone still operating if they wanted the whole thing to stop
oooh i need to know what happens if a human touches the lady's hand
Maybe they die? Maybe she had powers like Shigaraki’s from MHA? I dunno man.. IDK why the maid told Android girl to not become too familiar with their young lady. She’s not human, what would even happen?
The robot girl saying the rich girl doesn’t look like a living person is ironic
Also, the “so you aren’t human after all” after she charges the camera is hilarious— I’m assuming her parents or the head maid told her that Maya wasn’t human so she’s just like “oh wow, they weren’t kidding” but it’s funnier to think that she wasn’t convinced until she touched the robot’s hand
The premise so far is interesting— I just really don’t like how human the android is— they gave her the ability to sweat? To cry? To blush? To yawn? She can’t sleep because the bed is hard? Why would she even need to sleep, let alone need a soft bed to sleep on? Why would it even be hard to sleep? Just turn yourself off. How’s she able to determine what’s pretty? Or even find value in that? Why does she get flustered when the girl touches her hand?
Half of these functions are completely pointless as a robot and just make me ask “why create her”
Why make the robot clingy? Why make the robot petite to the point she struggles to carry a basket (which leads me to believe she obviously wasn’t designed to be a maid or do labor stuff)
Also, I’m curious if her “skin” is soft like a human’s (is her skin soft?), if she were to get stabbed, would she be fucked?
I wonder if it’ll ever be addressed? Why was she made to look the way she does? Why they gave her emotions?
I can def think of a reason:
My theory is that the two researchers had a kid together (or adopted, idk what gender the black haired one is) but the kid died, so they created the robot in the kid’s likeness but as time went on, the robot was nothing like the child they raised so it made the black haired one care less about the “kid” so when the government wanted their research to stop, since they didn’t have the heart to “kill their kid”, selling Maya off was the next “best” option. Abandoning Maya was so easy cuz the researchers were already disillusioned about the robot being their kid, the comment about Maya’s emotions being smthn they created is just another reminder for them; Maya isn’t their kid, it’s emotions aren’t real, therefore they shouldn’t feel bad or care.
Hiding my theory cuz if they actually do touch on it, I feel like what I said is likely to be what happened
Minor nitpick, buttttt you give the android the ability to blush, yawn, (which, the yawning implies it’s breathing, no?) cry, fear, etc yadda yadda, you add a charging panel on its back for convenience— so WHY isn’t it solar powered?? Or energy powered (like movement and stuff) or sleeping recharges it? Cuz with how she words it in this chapter, it seems like she herself needs to be plugged in to a wall in order to charge… like huh?
Also, just realized, no panel or cover up the ports? What if it rains?
