That creep deserved it

Correction executed.

 

[Mangamoz]

I for one welcome our robot executioners.

Reminder, what this light haired guy did is morally no worse than buying a bunch of laptops and destroying them. It's wasteful, and it's indicative of violent perversion on his part because it indicates that he enjoys destroying these piles of metal because they look like humans and thus that he is much more likely to have a desire to destroy humans than the average person. But nothing morally ba is being done to these human-shaped lumps of metal any more than anything morally bad is being done to the laptop.

It is impossible to do something morally bad to a laptop or a robot.

don't fall for roboganda

I hope he suffered a lot.

Even if the robot becomes self aware and has emotions like humans/animals would it still not be morally bad?
I can’t compare a computer to a robot. A computer was never built to be a companion but a robot could be built for that purpose. I feel like that can change a whole situation.

good, fucker didn't deserve his life or those dolls

They can't have emotions like humans and animals because they're not alive . They're tamagotchis or furries with more complicated behaviour.

From reading your logic...any kind of meat/protein is just a nutrition where ever source it's came from in the end...just that there is a line some where that when you see it you'll know it as a human being, there are a work arounds to that just like how it's fine if you consume protein from plants that absorb all manner of "nutrition" from "decomposed organic materials" that as a "human being" you have to draw a line.
For mutilating human shaped laptop, theirs parts can be easily repaired memory can simply be replaced/restored also, can't compared that to to irreversibly doing the same to living things since there is no known way reverse the act, BUT when that human shaped laptop ability to simulate life came from replacing human conciseness entirely into it or vice versa ( making a codes that can perfectly simulated life and then put it in living being ) I think that that's the line where it will be morally wrong.

Don't forget about the previous chapters with the robot clearly having a bag over its head, the manga ka wanted to show that these are objects. Would you still be entertaining these thoughts if the robots didn't look like humans?

I just realized I haven't seen a single human woman anywhere in this manga. What's up with that?

 

[EchoGirl]

Surprised he'd still need lube, considering they make them 'anatomically' correct, other than specifying a specific tightness/body type i think it wouldn't be an issue, unless ppl use lube on their fleshlights too

'robot convention' lol you'd think it'd something he'd bring her to, to show her off at

wonder if she'll get 'punished'/caught as opposed to that guy's relatives (assuming he has any) gets a lawsuit against company making them, if it not somehow going viral of someone going into his house and seeing all the broken robotpieces

I just realized I haven't seen a single human woman anywhere in this manga. What's up with that?

you know why (well i'm sure one of the workers at the robot factory is but yeah not the focus), tho i can imagine a world where 'not as many women so ppl make bots' but it'd be like that opposite of those 1:5/1:39 proportion manga

They exist.

Use case for these robots are for emotional support. Think like someone busy, or maybe like a caretaker bot for an old person living alone. It would be great for someone's grandmother or grandfather.

The problem is, this robot series doesn't seem to be brought by those type of customers. It might be a failed product, because the classrooms don't have new models for training. Because I don't think it was designed for sex, it is failing apart from wear and tear. We know this from the first owner.

It would be interesting to see a 'normal' person buy them but based on that one that worked on the brothel and the fact that they're 'anatomically' correct, more perverts would buy them as sex dolls versus the things they're trained to do like make omurice and play piano, but i can imagine a rich but neglectful parent/grandparent buy one as a 'friend'/companion for a kid or so

tho other than 'teaching'/customizing specific preferences i'd expect them to have vids/data uploaded if not 'practice' on people like how they seemed to have a mini school(?) before they got sent off

First off as erotica, I’m really not into this but as a near future science fiction story I'm really liking it. It’s scary how readers are relating to the robot, even though it doesn’t act like a person at all.

When it comes to the sex aspect of these robots, I think it’s something the manufactures know SOME customers are buying for that (they have the holes), but I think it isn't something the company really like to market these robots as sex robots. Like, for example, how a gun maker would sell a gun for hunting or self-defense, but they know SOME people will purposefully buy them to commit crimes.

We know these things are expensive, but aren't that expensive that the everyday person couldn't afford to buy one. From what I understand this is one of the top-of-the-line models, the first owner was a NEET, and he was able to take a loan for it and the 2nd owner was able to pick it because I think it was refurbished.

I feel like models we currently are seeing are similar to first the home computers in the 1990s, just when computers are starting to be affordable and brought by everyday people. I think these are still really new products. In the near future, I wouldn’t be surprised if they made ones for sex work specifically (like how you have computers specifically built and sold for gaming starting in the 2000s), but the technology isn’t there yet.

yeah interesting one was willing to get a loan as opposed to knowing (unless bots can't work for money outside of the brothel b/c of like whatever the jp equivalent of social security/identity is if not the company buying it), and the second guy did have a handful of other robots but also a youtuber so he prolly got money donated by ppl wanting to see him destroy the robots (and yeah that high/middle(?) schooler thought amu was just some chuuni girl instead of a robot so i guess no visible joints/seems or a robotic voice that'd make them seem obviously not human)

Another piece of lore that may hint that these things are new to the market and not regulated is that these robots are going crazy and killing people. We have this robot stab its master, and in one of the earlier chapters they mention a mysterious murder on the TV which might be robot related.

It reminds of those old history lesson when unsafe products are sold, but lawmakers figure out that selling this shit is not a good idea or needs to be regulated. Like how you used to be able to buy heroin, cocaine, and meth at a corner drug store. Or when lawmakers realize that adding safety features to stuff is a good idea, like seatbelts in cars.
