What was the subject of the conversation?

The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Edit: Incase anyone is interested, I just thought I'd add that this show is also known as Thunder Jet and Galaxy Warrior Rai.

I think there might be a few exception.

I love both the OP and ED for this show. Just beautiful. :)


Next anime (hopefully pretty easy):

Hector the Collector loved these things with all his soul,
Loved them more than shining diamonds, loved them more than glistenin' gold.
Hector called to all the people,"Come and share my treasure trunk!"
And all the silly sightless people came and looked...and called it junk.

Oh, I swore I wouldn’t respond to this thread unless I would not hang it up…
Guess I’m off to a bad start, huh? :emb

But anyhow, Bell of Chirin!


That was the film that reeeealy brought home to me how veeeeeery different the value system is in a Confucian society.
In an American or European movie, he would have been praised and lauded for his efforts; for saving his flock.

But in Bell of Chirin…

How horrible his punishment for daring to become something unique, that which he was not predestined to be!!!!!
Powerful, powerful, film! I’m just glad I didn’t see it when I was a small child (it’s target audience). Would’ve scarred me for life! 8O

New day, new clue:

Although the imagery in the film is very often fantastical, :hippy
it is about an actual historical, literary figure.

The film is set in the ironically named Shôwa Period, taking place largely in the mid-1920s, a very dangerous time to be a free thinker in Japan…what with the “Peace Preservation Lawâ€

Ah, Syan, I’m sorry to be so late! You are absolutely correct! :yay

Yes, it was Spring and Chaos - that dreamlike, semi-surreal biopic about the poet, Kenji Miyazawa!

And speaking of Shôwa Era Anime, the new anime season's Aoi Bungaku has gotten off to a great start with its harshly beautiful rendition of famous author, Osamu Dazai’s, quasi-autobiographical novel, No Longer Human, the seminal depiction of the devastating, life-long, psychological consequences of male child sexual abuse.

And the first chapter featured a “cameoâ€
