So, does 13 identify as Ueno, or was she directed to pretend that she were Ueno, or does she love Tanaka?

 

[radstylix]

@Oeconomist It seems to me that she's robo!Ueno, a robo wingwoman, and has a personality of her own (though still heavily Ueno). And yeah, I think she does love him too, programmed or because of their similar personality, who knows.

love rival REJECTED!

 

[shirasu]

This title is a masterpiece.

 

[Winderlies]

I don't think 13 was directed to pretend to be Ueno; the tennis club girl probably just got confused, like Tanaka did when 13 was first introduced.

Also, Yamashita mentions that 13 was programmed to act like a maiden, but her programming went out of control.

Finally, please stop bullying Yamashita into partaking in your experiments... 😢

Kek good chapter
Hope to see more robo shenanigans

 

[Kappaland]

Wait, why does no. 13 have no idea who she spoke to? Did she get overly focused on the fritters or something?

 

[Bainhardt]

I don't have a lot of textual evidence, but personally I think No. 13 is more or less a robot copy of Ueno. The main way in which they differ is that No. 13's body is a repurposed caretaker model robot, which explains why she's able to do things like launder clothes in her hands in ch 19, or why she would elect to mow the school grounds in ch 48. As for the "maiden's spirit" element, I can only recall that particular term appearing one other time in chapter 38, when Yamashita is consoling Ueno at the end. I believe this refers to how No. 13 was programmed to have the same feelings and attitude as Ueno, but the regulator/mechanism/whatever goes out of control, meaning No. 13 is essentially always acting like Ueno would in her most emotional/excited state.

Oh, and I think No. 13 doesn't recognize Minamine because they've never met before; No. 13 didn't appear in chapter 37.
That's my read of most of it, anyway. There haven't been character profiles for this manga, so it's a bit vague at best.

Put that love triangle in there, baby!
Maybe that’ll be what makes Ueno stop faffing about.

 

[artichoke]

What's up with Tanaka attracting all these school club presidents?

 

[starburst98]

Tanaka probably was referring to what she did was cute instead of calling her cute, but he is so blunt it sounded like the other way.

 

[goodie-bag]

I have no clue what to expect of her in the long run, considering she has no idea she was not talking to Ueno herself when it should have been obvious.

 

[kaminomikan]

the kind of ppl that shouldn't be allowed to move alone.

 

[RandomFanguy]

Well tennis girl IS cute.

 

[Buraindo]

oh NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

also, nice pun with the 0 G

 

[Teionsav]

@bainhardt two chapters?! 1 day apart?! Is it christmas already??

 

[walczyk]

@starburst98 no he clearly called her cute, as a reason why guys wanted to watch her play tennis.

 

[rayce]

Magnificent chapter.
