Of mechs and men
Yoshimitsu—er, I mean Mechazawa introduces his little brother, Beta Mechazawa. And the little guy keeps getting littler. Is he a phone? Is he a tea canister? Is Mechazawa a fridge? Who knows? Apparently Mechazawa has a format button on the back of his head. That’s a bad place for it, almost as bad as Data’s shutoff switch. You could accidentally activate that with a hug. Then you’d have to kiss Mechazawa goodbye.
Let me just reiterate how much short format anime rules. This one is based on a gag comic after all, so it kind of makes sense. Why does an episode of Lucky Star have to be 20 minutes long? Cromartie High School gets twice the laughs in half as much time.
