Useless Ponko - Vol. 5 Ch. 32 - Soumen Ponko

[RandomPasserby]

Maids from a cafe that sells alcohol at night, which also play in a band... If Ponko starts solving mysteries I'm going to call her Hotori.

 

[WarpDrive]

3 laws of robotics being an active skill is kind of worrying, because it means she can turn it off...

 

[Kaiser92]

death flagggggggggggg

 

[Glimmung]

So yeah, those skills... Totally a military robot. Civilian robots don’t have electronic warfare suites.
Also she has a blackbox, so maybe everything she has done is recorded despite her not recalling it?

 

[Imur]

Nice typesetting

 

[Sonaldo]

So Ponko stopped spitting rhymes and started spitting soumen huh? All that so Yuuna will let her grandpa help.

How Ponko feels right now

 

[anuar_kumadesu]

[Simpleton]

I read the chapter title as Suomen Ponko first and wondered what link to Finland could appear. XD

 

[shadowknight007]

Looking forward to chapters 35&36, they look really promising. Also, the title of ch33 means they are gonna play Tokimeki Memorial?

@WarpDrive The Three Laws of Robotics are a failure anyway, and won't stop robots from harming humans, so that doesn't make her much scarier.

@Glimmung I think the black box in this case is her operating system. Basically as far as she (and pretty much all the people around her) know, how she works might as well be magic. She's not like Data from Star Trek, she doesn't know her own programming and can't modify her own code. She can only install programs that give her additional skills. This is also consistent with a military robot, because it'd make it harder for the enemy to learn how a captured robot works.

From a snotty child to a fine woman huh? As they say, kids grow so fast

 

[episode]

This is speaking from my own carelessness experience:
Always be careful when handling bamboos! They have those tiny thin little dark splinters on the surface of its skins in between the joints! Those splinters might sticks to your hand and its painfully stings/itchy! So please make sure to wear a glove—a cloth glove will do—unless you dont mind to bear those splinters!
Also, the way ponko holds the bamboo when yuuna tried to split them is wrong! Dont—ever—hold them from the bottom! Dont! Just—dont! Instead, hold them from the top as you split them all the way down!

 

[blizzardwing]

aw man they forgot to list the negative ions in ponko’s skills!

 

[danvolodar]

On the plus side, Ponko can detect hostile radiowaves. I wonder if those waves are sentient or just, you know, sorta dumb and hostile.

 

[beep_repair]

Plus Ponko also immortal too, a relief for those with Plastic Memories anxiety 😰
