Lolita Robots!
Sooo I was watching some television and look what I found guis! :D wooo~
I perused the memories and don't think anyone has caught this yet but there is a new show here in Sweden called "Äkta Människor" (Real Humans) it's about the not so distant future where it has become commonplace to own a life-sized humanesque robot to assist you in your day to day life.
You can watch it for free on SVTplay through their website. I don't know if it's geoblock'd to people outside of Sweden/Europe but I highly doubt it is. Sweden tends to be more lenient about those things compared to the US. Here's the link to the pilot episode!
I will warn you though that there aren't any English subtitles that I can find :/ but check out the trailer! (unlike the episodes the trailer is subbed!)
Overall, the show is very much reminiscent of Chobits and I, Robot. I wouldn't be surprised if either didn't have a huge influence on the very concept of this show. So far I quite like it :D
In the first episode about 30 minutes in when the family is shopping for a new 'hubot' as they are called you can briefly spot some 'Lolita' robots in the background. It's too blurry to really make out what brand they're wearing but nevertheless it was fun seeing them :) so here are some screen grabs for you guys!
(You can see two of them behind the two human characters seen talking.)
(here you can actually see them on their sales display to the left. They're not mannequins! They're REAL PEOPLE but in the show they are 'hubots' aka robotic companions/assistants :p)
(here they are again but you can see what they're wearing slightly better but it's still blurry since they're filmed from a distant 'depth of field' shot. The weird 'ken doll' hubot to the left is creepy weird XD)
Sooo beyond that you really don't see any more of them. None of the main character hubots are seen sporting Lolita but I haven't seen past the pilot episode so one can hope! But sadly, I doubt they get more face time than this considering the tone of the show :/
Annnyways, I hope you enjoyed this! Yaaaay, I finally made my first post! :p did I do good? :D
PS. Like so many others have already pointed out in previous entries, tags are not loading ;A;
