Is this AI propaganda? Considering that animation companies in Japan are starting to use it, it wouldn't surprise me. The way this anime portrays anti-robot people is quite disturbing, as hideous beings with no realistic motivations, who only cause harm for pleasure, and to exaggerate things even further, they mercilessly beat a robot child. It's so obvious they want us to feel sorry for the robots, but at the same time they tell you that many people lost their jobs and money because companies now employ robots instead of people. A more realistic approach to these people, who have LEGITIMATE REASONS to be frustrated, would have been interesting, but noooo, poor little robots, they're suffering, look at that dismembered child! Doesn't it make you want to support the android protagonists? I'm sorry, but I don't like being forced to take sides so blatantly. Did the anti-robots have to be violent brutes? No, but we needed to elicit pity.
