Can we go back to the domestic Mina silliness please? I'm not here to see the author try (and largely fail) to wax philosophical about robot rights and the nature of artificial beings while all of it is undercut by dumb traditional romcom manga gags and tropes.

I used to love this series. Now I find myself finishing each chapter and caring less and less about it, only hanging onto the faint hope that sooner or later there'll be more Mina.

I didn't quite get from my own very limited Japanese reading skills that it's not just human Shitorari and robot Shitorari. I thought the explanation was that the more flustered Shitorari you see at the end of the chapter was the human Shitorari having woken up but it seems that there are multiple Shitorari robots, probably a few dozen according to the Roman numerals on their chokers.

This will make what happens at the end of chapter 44 a little easier to stomach, if it's just one single Shitorari robot who is a yandere.

I am seeing more and more that STALKER scans was justified in dropping this. I really liked this manga, but the mangaka clearly has no idea what they are writing any more. Maybe they ran out of ideas for the main couple, so it's the robot club manga now. That's where all the plot is going for some reason.
unfortunately, i think you're right. i think a lot of this might have been thought of pretty early on (after the first volume), but the execution is flailing wildly, and it's lost pretty much all the charm that made me start reading it in the first place.

Can the people that are complaining just leave already? The author wants to make more than just the main couple, if you dont like it, go away, this manga is about robots and the questions that living and loving them brings to the table, if you dont like it, go read something else, you wont be missed.

Or maybe the author always wanted the manga to be about more than just the main couple, you do know that side characters exist in every manga right..

What a conundrum. A robot carrying the memories of a human being whose only purpose is to gather life experiences her human progenitor can't, and then essentially have her existence erased as if she was never there in the first place. Not only that, but there's more than one robot with this purpose, who are just living someone else's life while being fully aware that they're impostors.
On one hand it's a noble goal, but on the other hand it's rather sad since they're not built to live their own lives. In fact, the Shittorari robot girls are always shown on the sidelines wishing they could experience things like love.

Meanwhile, the scanlator is getting evicted.

I mean, the title of the manga implies that the story will be mainly about the guy married to a robot, so it's understandable people may feel frustrated that it's not something the author seems to be focusing that much on anymore. Most people were drawn to this series because of that premise...

That being said, i do like when the author tries to do a bit of world building now and then, but i do think he should focus on the main couple some more.

I understand what her father is trying to do, but what is the point of giving the girl memories that are not her own? What if it takes years for her to wake up? All those people she (or rather, the robots) met will have moved on with their lives...
