Heheh, I've never seen that in Cobalt. But isn't that a common AI issue in science fiction? Taking things way too seriously and/or literally?

I didn't think of him as a robot first. Sure, I always knew that he was one, but he seemed infinitely more human than than any of the others. I honestly don't know what my problem is; it's like my brain is conspiring against me (and on multiple fronts). @AprilSeven: Really? You actually like my "con...

I'm... not really a trekkie. I also don't know a heck of a lot about this stuff. I already knew that the "atomic robot" thing was impossible, though. (At least on that scale...) Anyways, you can be sentient or "self-aware" and still not feel anything. There are people like that, actually. But you se...

Uh, hmm. I'm not so sure about that; I have seen very few episodes of the 60's series, and even fewer with Jetto in them (and I haven't seen the Japanese version at all, barring the very first and very last episodes of this series), so it's difficult for me to make a complete assessment of his chara...

... are starting to ruin Astro Boy for me, I think. o_o; It's the idea of a machine having feelings and emotions (never mind the very real possibility of it thinking for itself, albeit in a rudimentary fashion) that bothers me. It hasn't been done, to the best of my knowledge. But everyone is focuse...

Cobalt doesn't seem to be wearing his strap-on/magnetic jets this time around... hmm... I love Atom and Uran's "D'OH!" faces in that one panel. And Riboryu and Cobalt are all like "Crap!" :D Y'know, I don't think Cobalt was ever meant to be "perfect". Even from his very conception he was fairly badl...

I saw a fansub of the first episode (in three parts, as well as 1/3 of the second episode) on Youtube, ages and ages (like, two, almost three years, maybe?) ago. I distinctly remember being awed by it. Watched the same episode in English (crunchyroll had the English dub up on Youtube at the time) no...

[QUOTE=Little Brown Fox;205595]@Shiyonasan: If you're a girl, I'd guess that your name is "Cheyenne". :3 Nope. I'm a guy and my name's not Cheyenne. Good guess though. "Shiyonasan" does kind of sound like Cheyenne, admittedly.[/QUOTE] :blush: Oh... whoops! Well, now we know, right? I wouldn't have ...

My folks got divorced a long, long time ago. I don't even think I was in kindergarten yet. My dad's been in and out of my life ever since (mostly just out, though). He's currently "out" at the moment. *coughcoughprisoncoughcough* I can't say that I care for him very much.

Legend of Zelda cartoon. Rented one volume from Redbox; do not want. Sonic Underground. Only ever watched one episode, on Netflix, just to see what it was like. Never again. I used to watch a Sonic cartoon when I was younger, but I can't remember which one. I know some of the episodes I saw had Tail...
