You see, this is why I hate the idea of sentient robots. To prevent stuff like these, as well as long-life tragedies. (Oh shit, I'm so gonna get downvoted for this)
o wow, my heart just exploded with sadness and i'm crying just like a kid when he lost something precious. THIS is beautiful stuff right here. I nearly cry at sad movies / manga or books but this just made me cry.
This really needs to be translated more. The things they're saying before the robot shuts down are just going to bring on an endless stream of tears but I MUST KNOW!!!!
