Terrible by even Adult swim standards, but has potential to grow on you
7 November 2004
This show is something that is just odd, and doesn't agree with it's viewers at all. The Main character comes off as a jerk and very rude. Seeming like Adult swim made the translation like that on purpose, and it comes off completely terribly... The robot main comes off as the helpless mother. This show seems like it is untented at a younger audience (one of the plot lines is to lure out the counter fitters by making a Belgium waffle stand, which breaks out into a Public broadcasting worthy song) but given the material of it (the robot dog p***ing on the floor) it is something I would definitely never show my children. (at one point, they even swear and the line "With this money, I can become a Real Woman" by a man dressed as a woman is said... but at 12:30 this is apparently allowed)

The animation style seems to change from low kitty grade, to standard anime, to live action weirdness.

Seeing it on Adult swim now... and when the 'president' talks, Clearly you can clearly see the WTC Buildings in the background. Not cool at all. Even though it takes place in japan supposedly

But by the end of the show, it was getting better, and it was very slowly growing on you, but this kind of material I can see most getting very sick of quite quickly. It clearly does not have the the "WTF" lasting value that Aqua teen hunger force, or Sealab 2001 have (a lasting Adult swim theme)

The anime quality was low kiddy grade. but geared to adults makes quite the contrast, but as adult swim says. "not untented for anyone under 14" But at the same time, put up the disclaimer, "Not untented for anyone over 41"
