--- Quote from: T on 24 Jul 2012, 23:11 ---It doesn't make sense that she can make those references without know what "anime" is. It would make sense if it were one popular anime that air on TV but Azumanga Daioh and Nichijou aren't that famous to people outside of otaku culture are they? Where they aired on Canada? Was she just messing with Momo or some crazy explanation is to come?

I think she's just having crazy ideas about robots, and they just "happen to be references". 4th wall-ey kinda gag. As T mentioned, Nichijou is a very recent series that would probably not be known by many people who aren't following the scene.
And I'm not sure where Anpanman comes into the equation, especially not from referencing that episode.

That would be the "crazy explanation" some sort of quantic coincidence!
Is it cold in here?:
Emily seems to share some obliviousness with Padma, but is far quirkier.
Banana smoothie.

;w; Do I detect an Azumanga Daioh reference?

Curiously I happened to watch that particular episode while waiting for my servers to reboot the other night.
Who are the cameos in panel 3?

If Emily's Padma 2.0, then I quite like the improvements! Padma was just blunt - likable, don't get me wrong, but not amusingly quirky. I liked Emily better when she specifically wanted a hammer-smashed banana smoothie (not gonna lie, I might also make that order) than when she randomly decided robot = cake-holder, but now that I put it that way, I think she's cool again. I want a cake dispenser robot.
I also want Emily to grow into a complete quirky person, and odds are she will since this is QC, but even if she were to end up as just another resident Cloudcuckoolander popping in a funky punchline every so often, I think I'd be cool with that, too.

Also, I love that Emily has frizz from the humidity. It's the kind of detail that makes a world more real.
Why has no one complimented Gabby's hair instead of just saying it looks different? Looks like she's got a nice cute curly 'fro goin' on!
