Found this on Amazon JP

Unfortunately that price point is pretty ridiculous. Now that I know it's an actual thing I'll start looking around used media stores and see if I can find it for a price that isn't astronomical.

If you had your own robot, what would it look like? Thoughts on sentient robots?

I’ve been diving deep into futuristic robot designs lately and stumbled across this gallery of jaw-dropping concepts

I’m honestly blown away by how much personality and creativity these designs have. Check them out here—I’d love to hear which one inspires you the most! Or, if you were designing your own robot, what story would you want it to tell? Let’s geek out together!"

Why did Zima request to speak to Claire?

I always wondered, out of all people, what made Zima choose to speak to Claire about his final work of art? Was it because she might've been the one to reach out the most so he gave her a final meet and greet before his return to his original form? Like a farewell gift to his biggest fan? I always wondered what was so special about Claire. Maybe im overthinking it.

LD + R Season 3 - Episode 6 - End Scene - Thoughts On The Hosts Speech & The Doctors Respond - Slightly Humorous

The episode from "Love, Death + Robots" Season 3, Episode 6 offers a striking blend of humor and seriousness, masterfully encapsulated in the interaction between the swarm’s host and the doctor. The humor in the exchange arises from the juxtaposition of the host's ominous tone and the bombastic nature of her proclamations against the doctor’s more subtle but charged reaction. When the host boasts about "real, intelligent beings," the listener is drawn in by the gravity of her message and the rhythmic drum beats that underscore the tension. The seriousness of the moment, evoking a sense of impending doom, is sharply contrasted by her vague proclamations and a certain aloofness that mirrors the eccentricity one might find in a doomsday preacher dispensing cryptic messages about the end times.

The humor escalates when the host, embodying a grandiose figure of authority, turns to the doctor and asks, “What about you?” This question carries a weight that encourages reflection, yet the doctor’s tooth-grinding reaction serves as an absurd counterpoint to the intelligence and disaster implied by the host. Rather than responding with an articulate rebuttal or insight, the doctor’s physical response suggests frustration or disbelief in the face of the host’s self-importance and lack of tangible content. This contrast—a normally composed intellectual reduced to a primitive display of tension—creates an amusing dissonance.

Moreover, the host’s telepathic form of communication adds another layer to the humor. In a world where the swarm operates as one cohesive unit, her indirect, broad-stroke declarations resonate as both profound and hilariously superficial.

My theory is that the whole series is happening inside the fridge from the Ice Age episode, where two superbeings, whom we perceive as two people in the apartment, are running simulations on their unimaginable supercomputer, which we perceive as a fridge.

Which episodes of Love, Death & Robots do you think can share the same universe as each other?

On my end since I already answered this, I like to think the following episodes are all set in the same universe but in different places and times:

Fish Night, The Secret War, All Through The House, Bad Travelling and lastly, The Very Pulse Of The Machine.

As for others that I think could be in the same universe as them that isn't related to Love, Death & Robots, than these are my picks:

The Mummy (1999), Overlord (2018), Heat (1995), The Brave One (2007) and lastly I Saw The Devil (2010).

The influence for this is believe it or not another anthology series Tales From The Crypt, there's a fan theory that every episode of the entire series (except the animated series finale) and the two movies are all set in the same universe. Basically all these different tones and styles and I brought it over to this. For example, you can have a bizarre, LAIKA-esque, weird, twisted and macabre episode like All Through The House and then you can have a completely serious, dark, gritty, visceral and grim episode like Bad Travelling.

If you had to come up with an episode for Love, Death & Robots than how would you do it and what would it be like?

Mine:

A special hour-long episode called "The Witch Who Comes At Night" and its a comic book stylized story about a young woman who is kidnapped and brought to a witch but the latter decides to let her go, yet the former becomes obsessed with the event.

Are all LDR episodes adaptations?

Recently, I began watching LDR while looking for something to pass the time. After watching Beyond the aquila rift, I got really curious and searched it up, only to find out that the original is actually a book. Apparently, this pattern continues for Fish Night and Sonnie's edge. Is this the case for literally every single other episode?

Nightmare episodes

Heyy. I am new to the series and after watching the secret war I realized I might get nightmares from some of the episodes. I am over 18 I am just get nightmares easy. Any realistic episodes I should stay away from? Specifically realistic episodes that have a lot of gore and a somewhat scary plot. Those are the ones I'd like a heads up on. Thank you in advance

Here's an entire idea that I have for a whole "Love, Death & Robots" movie under the "Presents" banner that you can read for yourself below and share your thoughts on it as a fan.

The idea is essentially Love, Death & Robots Presents Escape From Echo Planet, a 2D anime-influenced action/sci-fi adventure animated movie that includes all three aspects of the title in its own distinct and interesting ways:

PREMISE

Set in New York City during Christmas Eve, we follow a young and stunningly gorgeous blonde 25 year old woman, Susan Gilchrist, who was once a top-of-her-class black belt champion and highly skilled martial artist but has now put all of that behind her and has settled down. She's a single mother of three who has recently divorced and unfortunately for her, this is her first Christmas since then with Susan wanting to fully be there for her children as that's one of the reasons her marriage fell through. However, all of this is about to take a turn that will forever change Susan's life when she simply goes to answer the door and finds three women around her exact age in tight catsuits who instantly bag and kidnap her. They take her to their main source of transportation - a high-tech alien spacecraft - and they fly her off into not just space but an entire flat island-esque planet where they're from where all is revealed. Not only is the titular Echo Planet not an actual planet and is instead a vast spaceship belonging to and led by the ruthless and sinister alien queen known as Xyphar but that Xyphar is planning on invading Earth and is putting together her own female army of super soldiers to lead with Susan as one of them. But she manages to escape before she is put under mind control and now she is on the run having to survive using all she's got from her fighting skills to her wits, ultimately realizing that she's the only one who is able to save the world all the while Xyphar takes a certain interest in her.

Three Robots

I really wish three robots had their own tv show. I'm glad we at least have two episodes but it's great and I want more.

How did Suzy know?

Beyond the Aquila Rift is one of my favorite episodes and I like how they left some questions unanswered. The only thing I really don’t understand and wanna know is how did Suzy know? Thom has to slowly figure out that something isn’t right, but as soon as Suzy wakes up for a second time and is fully coherent she literally says “That’s not Greta, look at her.” I wonder how she knew and what she saw that she knew it wasn’t her. I don’t think she can fully see through “Greta’s” illusion or she would be freaking out a lot more, so I wonder what it was that she knew immediately. Any theories? Honestly, I think most of the episodes should be standalone, but I would definitely watch another version of that situation from Suzy’s perspective.

TL:DR: In Beyond the Aquila Rift, how did Suzy know it wasn’t Greta?

Meaning behind The Secret War?

Hi! Just finished watching The Secret War and honestly I have so many questions! Does anyone have any thoughts on what they think the animators wanted to tell the audience with this piece? Is it a critique of communist regimes?

If you had to come up with a Love, Death & Robots movie with the banner of "Love, Death & Robots Presents" than what would you do and how would you make it?

On my end, I'd make this old pitch of mine that I posted on Tumblr the movie since it is just as weird as pretty much any Love, Death & Robots episode:

LOVE, DEATH & ROBOTS PRESENTS SOMETHING WICKED ON THE MODEL RUNWAY

https://www.tumblr.com/burningexeter/759713133277429760/pitch-something-wicked-on-the-model-runway?source=share

As an added bonus, there will be a few easter eggs that heavily imply a shared LD&R universe with three episodes — The Secret War, All Through The House and Bad Travelling.
