EPISODE REVIEWS
Cada vez las historias se van entrelazando unas con otras entre los personajes. Esta vez vimos que Chii fue raptada y Hideki anda como loco buscándola por todas partes, con ayuda de varios la están buscando, con esto conocemos el pasado del jefe de Chii.
This episode continues the story from Episode 20, and it still hasn’t fully refreshed my memory of the series. I guess that’s because, back when I first watched it, I was mostly focused on Chii and Hideki. One thing I did notice this time is that almost all of the characters seem to be connected in some way through Chii or Hideki’s circle. Hopefully, the upcoming episodes will finally reveal how all of these connections fit together.
Chii is still kidnapped, and Hideki is at his wit's end trying to find her. Ueda, Chii's boss, accompanies him as he searches the neighborhood to see if anyone knows anything. After a brief conversation with Shinbo, who tries to remind Hideki that Persocoms aren't people, Ueda offers a different perspective. Ueda and his Persocom had a tragic history, one that feels relatable because it's so similar to a terrible human affliction. Now, what's his connection to Yumi, and why doesn't she want anything to do with him? This chapter raises the question of whether it's right or wrong to fall in love with a machine, and why someone would develop feelings for a device that simulates a human being.
