EPISODE REVIEWS

No hay mucho que decir de este capítulo sin soltar algún spoiler ya que el nombre del mismo dice casi todo lo que pasa en estos 23 minutos. Lo que si hace énfasis en los pensamientos de Hideki es en lo delicado que es el tema de los persocons con los humanos y cómo varios han sido afectados por la distorsión de la realidad.

This episode really showed how attached Hideki and Chii have become to each other. It also highlighted how different Chii is from other Persocoms, making her even more mysterious. It got me thinking because I honestly can’t remember what Chii’s actual relationship with the apartment manager is. Rewatching the series has made me curious all over again to see how all of these mysteries will eventually be explained.

It's not a spoiler to say this when the title itself gives it all away! Yes, Chii is kidnapped. This episode picks up where the blurring lines between Persocoms and humans left off. Chii is acting more and more human, and Hideki is unable to resist her charms. However, she is kidnapped, and the kidnapper seems to be someone very aware that she's no ordinary Persocom. Yuzuki is also acting unexpectedly. To what extent can Persocoms truly be considered machines rather than humans?
