Eve no Jikan: Time of Eve

WARNING WARNING SPOILERS BELOW LOOK AT OWN RISK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

































This anime is the latest work by Yasuhiro Yoshiura and is set in 6 episodes lasting 15 mins each. The episodes are released every 2 months and they're totally awesome. The Time of Eve poses an ethical question around the treatment of androids whether humans should treat them as machines or if they should be treated as humans.

Rikuo has been taught that androids are to be treated as convenient tools and that they aren't human. Even though they look human apart from a halo above their heads to distinguish them from humans. One day Rikuo finds an interesting data entry for his household android and decides to investigate with his friend. What they discover is a mysterious cafe where humans and androids are to be treated equally and inside the cafe the android's halo is removed making them indistinguishable from HUMANS.

This anime is amazing in my opinion and it's totally a work of art. The first 3 episodes are available to watch now but part 4 will not be available until April 2009. By waiting for the next part of this anime I feel like a member of some elite organisation. Well, that's just like ME^.^

Interested. Watch Trailer - Japanese :)
