“Are you enjoying the Time of Eve?”

That’s the first sign you will see when you enter into this hidden cafe. First time visitors will be informed of rule that states “No discrimination between humans and robots” within the cafe.

Set in the futuristic era of Japan, where robot usage has become an everyday occurrence. The improvement of technology has made it hard to differentiate between robots and human, thus making it compulsory for robots to be identified with glowing rings above their heads.

Most of Animenauts local readers (I think) would probably have gone for the recent Anime Festival Asia 2011 last weekend.

Although it has some of the characters from Mai-Hime (Another anime series), this isn’t a sequel! Rather, it’s a different story that is happening in an alternate-universe of Mai-Hime.

Hehe… You must think that I watched Mai-Hime before I started this series right? Wrong, I saw this anime on Omni-san’s animeblog (used to be Omni’s, Divine has now taken over ownership), at first I thought that this must be those “yuri” type anime, but I decided to give it a try anyway, it wasn’t bad at all… I found it to be quite interesting :)
