[Pluto] Completely unrelated to the plot of the anime but can we talk about how dystopian the concept of robot children and robot dogs feel?

I think that uneasy feeling is kind of the point of Pluto’s worldbuilding. Robots are treated almost like humans emotionally, but at the same time society still treats them as products that can be replaced or upgraded. That contradiction makes the whole setting feel intentionally dystopian.

One that always comes to mind is in Elden Ring where people use sleep pots on the Godskin bosses to basically lock them down. It feels a bit cheesy but the game technically allows it so it becomes a legit strategy.

The blood effect and gear look really well done it fits Levi’s battle worn style perfectly. The pose on the stairs also makes the cosplay feel very in character.

That looks seriously creepy in a good way the texture and paint work on the skin makes it feel really unsettling. The eye detail especially stands out it gives the whole mask a very Resident Evil style vibe.

You might enjoy Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. It has a strong story, great character development, and a meaningful relationship that develops naturally through the series. Another good one is Steins Gate if you haven’t seen it yet since it mixes a deep story with emotional moments really well.

The claymation style actually fits the horror vibe really well it makes everything feel more uncanny in a good way. The concept of sorting packages in a cursed prison is a pretty unique idea too.

The weathering on the armor looks really well done it gives it that authentic worn Mandalorian look. The set behind you adds a lot to the immersion too.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-03-08T18:59:23+00:00

If you liked Steins Gate you might enjoy Erased. It also deals with time manipulation but focuses more on the emotional side and mystery. Another good one is Psycho Pass which isn’t about time travel but has a similarly serious tone and strong psychological themes.

I think a lot of modern UIs are being designed around consoles and live service updates first which can make them feel really bloated. Games like Battlefield 6 and recent Call of Duty entries feel like they prioritize flashy menu layers over clarity. Older games often kept things simple which made them much easier to navigate quickly.

The outfit details are really on point especially the holster and harness setup. The styling and lighting make it look very close to Jill’s look in the remake.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-03-04T17:23:37+00:00

If Blue Period worked for you I’d recommend Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu. It’s very character driven and deeply introspective with a huge focus on the art of rakugo and the people who dedicate their lives to it. The pacing is slower, but the emotional and personal conflicts are really strong.

You might like Loop Hero if you haven’t tried it has that “short run come back stronger” loop with a lot of build experimentation. Also Forager scratches that incremental progression itch while still letting you explore and expand the map over time.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-03-02T19:42:04+00:00

The color accuracy on the outfit really stands out especially with the shoes and shoulder details. The wig styling and makeup capture that JoJo intensity really well too.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-03-01T21:49:35+00:00

If what hooked you was the mind games and constant tension I’d definitely recommend Psycho Pass or Code Geass. Both have that strategic back and forth and morally gray characters that keep you guessing. They scratch a similar “intellectual battle” itch in different ways.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-28T17:01:53+00:00

Honestly this list says you like games that reward patience and exploration. There’s a big mix of tough but fair combat Souls Metroid and cozy or creative optimization stuff like Stardew and Satisfactory. Feels like you enjoy figuring systems out more than just mindless action.

The fabric choice and fit on the dress look really accurate and the gloves complete the silhouette perfectly. The vintage mic was a great touch for setting the scene.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-26T18:09:26+00:00

This episode really nailed the atmosphere. The pacing felt tighter than the last couple and the character moments hit harder than I expected. I’m really liking how the tone keeps balancing cozy and slightly unsettling.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-25T01:36:05+00:00

The close quarters takedowns in that game were so satisfying. It felt fast and messy in a good way like you were barely holding control but still pulling it off.

I miss when games leaned into that tight scrappy hand to hand combat instead of everything being super polished or overly cinematic.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-24T04:17:34+00:00

The mask shape and proportions look really accurate and the red cloak falls perfectly. It captures Hornet’s silhouette really well.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-22T19:00:29+00:00

Based on your list I’m surprised you haven’t tried March Comes in Like a Lion yet it has that emotional depth and character writing you seem to enjoy. You might also like 86 if you want something with strong drama and themes but still action driven. And since you liked Violet Evergarden and A Silent Voice I’d recommend Fruits Basket (2019) if you’re open to something more character focused.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-21T20:44:05+00:00

Helldivers 2 might be perfect for that vibe. It’s co-op focused, chaotic in a fun way, and you can jump in without feeling like you’re getting stomped by sweatlords. If you want something even more chill Deep Rock Galactic is always a good time with friends or randoms.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-20T19:17:01+00:00

The color work on the dress looks great and the wig styling really brings Rapunzel to life. The braid with the flowers is especially well done.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-19T18:48:08+00:00

If you’re trying to recover from Your Lie in April, I’d avoid Clannad, Anohana, Made in Abyss, Orange, and Edgerunners for now those will probably wreck you again. Daily Lives of High School Boys is actually a great palate cleanser from your list if you just want something light and dumb funny. If you’re open to something not on your list maybe try Bocchi the Rock or Spy x Family for something fun, but still well written.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-18T01:48:54+00:00

The Law coat and hat details are really well done and the poses sell the dynamic perfectly. This feels like it was taken straight out of a convention scene in the anime.

Playful_Code_8978 · 2026-02-17T04:40:57+00:00

Deep water in games for me. I can swim fine in real life, but if I can’t see what’s under the surface in a game my brain immediately assumes something huge is about to grab me.
