In the not too distant future androids have come into common usage. Taking the androids for granted, humans treat them as if they were common everyday tools, however, some people are unhealthily attracted to the androids due to to their human-like appearance (save for a digital ring floating above their heads). This has become a social problem and these people are frowned upon as a result. Rikuo, who has taken androids for granted for his entire life, one day he discovers that Sammy, his home android, has been acting strangely and finds a strange phrase recorded in her activity log. He, along with his friend Masaki, trace Sammy's footsteps and come upon an unusual cafe. This cafe's main rule is to not discriminate between humans and androids.

Time of Eve kinda resembles me of Makoto Shinkai's works (5 Centimeter, The Place We Promised in our Early Days), at least animation wise (maybe not as beautiful though.). At least the cast seems interesting and the plot.

[Shariyakugan]

I've just seen the first ep.
This is pretty good, and your right is does look like some Makoto Shinkai work.
I like the cafe where the rings aren't there, makes you wonder about what exactly you are seeing and if the differences between man and android are even that big.
Any idea when we will see the next episode?

[~Shin~]

This was pretty interesting. I was really impressed with how the story was presented. It was a right balance of surrealism and realism.

I would've liked it more if the video size wasn't so small. It really doesn't do the art any justice at all.

[chrisp]

I'll check it out right away! Judging by the picture, the art and animation seems to be superb.

Bra post Reizhan!:amuse

[Altron]

Interesting, need a DDL link to check this out.

[Batman]

The first ep was definitely interesting. Great art style, but I bet that I'll be able to predict this entire series down to a T. Hopefully though, I'll be proved wrong.

[Nisukeita]

watched the first epi and enjoyed it alot, cant wait for more!

[Quagles]

Anyone actually know when next part is gonna be released ?

[The Cheat]

I liked this alot, it was very interesting, my favorite part of the OA are the animation and art style.

[Kira Yamato]

I so want to see the second episode whenever it airs. It sure was an interesting take on dealing with the ethics involved when the boundary between humans and androids become blurred.

However, the first time I saw Akiko I automatically assumed she was an android without hesitation, while Rikou and Misaki didn't really assume that even though they had just earlier learned that the androids halos don't appear in that cafe thus you really can't tell whose who...


In any case, I'm looking forward to see in how this series develop.

[Six]

Is this show depressing?

[Kira Yamato]

Is this show depressing?

After watching the first episode it doesn't appear to be so...but you can never really tell how it develops after the first episode. It just brings to light some interesting questions that everyone has like "what it truly means to be human" but does so in a way that kinda pulls the audience in. I wouldn't say it's depressing at all and has it's light moments such as Akiko's introduction.

And I got all this from a 15 minute episode :awesome

[Wesley]

I would think pointing out her performance as Chii in Chobits would have been more appropiate. You know, since it's dealing with a similiar premise.

[lizardo221]

This is clearly a gem I have been looking for. Its art work drew me in but its plot and writing sealed the deal. These shorter episodes and wonderful plot almost make me want to say the second coming of FLCL (in terms of quality). I will have to wait for more and hope it continues you suck me in.

[Shariyakugan]

Not to make any discrimination but...

Who, of the people mentioned in the Eve cafe, do you think are andriod's?
So far the following people have been mentioned.

Akiko. (the talkative girl)
Nagi. (the bartender of the eve cafe)
Setoru. (could be the guy on the couch reading)
Shimei. (the person on the second floor)
Chiya. (the little girl on the second floor)
Kou. (the first half of the couple)
Rina. (the second half of the couple)

post your suspicions.

Akiko was already confirmed to be an android in episode 1. Remember her at the end when Rikou was in class and saw the halo.

I did see but posting that would be a spoiler wouldn't it? smile-big
I'm trying to get some conversation started in this thread as I'm really liking this show.
So, I think Nagi may actually be human. se is being portrayed as a android with the weird stuff she has been doing like hiding behind the pole with a really weird face, but I think she's human.

Akiko smile-big was acting really lifelike and was actually a Android.

[Quagles]

I'm still wondering when the episodes are gonna keep getting released, haven't seen anything for a time. I'm so eager to see how this is gonna be turning out, I guess it'll only be released every few weeks. Then in the end it combines into a movie, like 5 Centimeters.

[Crazysnowman]

Definetly looking into this.

Ohh, Episode 2. good stuff.

This OVA is great, looking forward to continuing it.

[ObeyDaft]

Is there a DDL yet?

There you go. Winrar file so you have to unzip it because it's 3 files.

[Kira Yamato]

If only the episodes weren't so short and so far apart :cry

Well, at least Rikou was able to see Sammi at that spot, but the rule of having the door locked for a specified amount of time is good thinking given that they want to protect the privacy of the customers. But at the end it certainly looked like something major was brewing and don't mean the coffee :pek

[Scum]

just watched the first episode today, and i have to say it's pretty interesting. definitely sticking around for more.

[Yakushi Kabuto]

Oh, I like the style of this, and very vaguely reminded me of Chobits, so tried it out. The animation has a nice clean style to it and has interesting things with the movement of the shots. Ethics Committee and that snip of a commercial with the tomato sure was unnerving. Anyway, I assumed Akiko was one, but it still was nicely done. Wonder if the sister is going to be perpetually drunk. I'll watch the second episode after getting some food. :3

[Crazysnowman]

waah everytime i see this thread i want the next episode soooooooooooooo bad. I really, really like this anime.

[dwabn]

This show is really good just saw, 1st ep. love the style and it is kinda like Makoto Shinkai's work.

[Yakushi Kabuto]

Alright, since these are short episodes couldn't resist watching the 2nd one as well. Nya~ cute kid. Episode was really entertaining with the way the people interacted. Really curious about Masaki's past now with that little shot of him as a kid. Definitely good idea with the door. Yay about liking the coffee, that was a sweet scene.

"[...]I would merely like to announce my intention to release the subtitles for Eve no Jikan Act 03, when it comes out in December. Hopefully, this will clear up some of the confusion as to what’s going down with this anime. That said, the release will ONLY be for the subtitles. That is, I will not be providing a torrent or an encoded video file for the episode. The reuse policy for the subtitles will remain the same, however, though I am not endorsing or collaborating with anyone else with this."

so i don't see any reason for emina to drop eve as long as they can get raws somewhere else

[GrimaH]

Ah, cool then.

[dwabn]

dling,

wow so much time between releases that i almost forgot @ this show. but its been great so far one of my favs this season despite it being so short

[Yakushi Kabuto]

So sleepy, had to watch this before going to sleep though, good thing the episodes are short.
I WANT a Cinema Tide, I don't care that such things don't exist. D: It is awesome. Anyway, this episode was really well done, just like the other two. I liked watching the two guys figuring out what the truth was and wow, did Rina have some er...dangerous cleavage. I thought she was going to kick him when he saw her leg or something.

[Sinax]

Just watched 1-3. This series is amazing, I don't know why more people aren't commenting on it.

Anyone else want to slap the people the way they're treating their androids?

Dam rights its amazing... I guess not many people have got wind of it yet.

Hrmm... I want to slap Rikuo.. he needs to get his act together and decide which side hes on.

pretty bad quality on that one :(
bad quality take away some of the awesomeness from a series like this imo :/
i hope there will be a hq even though pireze stopped providing raws.

The HQ stream on crunchyroll was pretty nice. I know some people don't like it for some reason but HQ is HQ.

Overall loving this series, too bad it's so short and spread apart.

[chrisp]

Saw the first episode, really a different anime from the rest. It reminds me slightly of The Sims, maybe it's because of the 'computer rings'.

[M00nkey]

Hi all. I just wanted to say I'm impressed by this anime. Can't wait for the next one. Also loved Pale Cocoon, was a good OVA!

[Austeria]

I simply cannot wait for episode 4! :love

I just adoooooore this anime. Such interesting concept, awesome art and great direction. Just what I expected after watching Pale Cocoon.

[M00nkey]

I agree. Episode 2 was still my favourite. The way that he found out about... well you know, I'm not going to spoil it.

Picked who was who in Episode 3.

Now, just to find out who the old man and the man in black really are =)

Wonder how this is going to end?

[TAAU]

Maybe I've missed something, but I'm a little confused...

Now that Rikuo has found out about Sammy - why does she still act all 'android-y' around him - even when they're alone?

This is a great series so far - It's a shame it's only a ONA

Only time will tell..... dun dun dun :notrust

IMO, its because society frowns on dorikei, and since Rikuo and his sister and his mum are in the house, and his sister is hating on dorikei, Rikuo can't confess his true feelings for Sammy.:amazed

I've become a dorikei watching this...:nuts

[xinclair]

Hi guys! Thought I'd bring this thread up to say act04: Nameless had finally came out on stream at Crunchyroll (http://www.crunchyroll.com/media-527892/time-of-eve-4/), and that long wait (4 or 5 months?) was well worth it! :) *patiently waits for non stream version*

[halfhearted]

Oh, this is excellent news! Definitely waiting for a non-stream copy, as well.

[Yakushi Kabuto]

I really wish that the episodes came with greater regularity, I keep barely remembering such a lovely series. The music that came on whenever the old robot did something was awesome. Reminded me of Terminator only as an old man. xD And yeah, the ending was sadly sweet.

[Kira Yamato]

That old model was incredibly creepy but it was sad to see it try so hard to assert it's humanity and attempt to reclaim it's lost memories. I have to admit I felt a bit sad towards the end of that episode. :(

There was a couple of humorous scenes, especially when Chie-chan arrived and started referring to herself as a cat thus confusing that robot even further :lmao

woot! *downloads and rewatches*

The robot was hilarious! and it may not be entertaining enough if they rushed through the episode by cutting through the animation. It's this ep's strongest point. The english site (http://timeofeve.com/e/) contains dates (well, months) of when the next episodes will get released. I'm marking my calendar :P

Eve no Jikan(Batch Release) (http://www.nyaatorrents.org/?page=download&tid=103581)

Finally, a decent batch release. I wasn't able to find episode 5, so this was a real blessing. The ending with Masaki was truly heartwarming. Although the modd was briefly interrupted when him and Tex tried going up the stairs. :lmao

[Z28CTYHNTR]

LMAO at ep 4, that episode literally brought tears to my eyes from laughing so hard. The way the terminator music would play when it was walking into the cafe was awesome, and how they kept trying to keep it from exploding, man that ep was so funny.

[Shodai]

Man this series was fucking epic.

It deserves more.

[Kira Yamato]

The movie is coming out next year which consists of the 6 episodes with some newly added scenes. Although I do wish we had an actual continuation.

[RODtheTV]

Thank you for using the Time of Eve

[Yakushi Kabuto]

Since the episodes were so spaced out I completely forgot about watching more of this until I saw the thread. D: But I finally watched the last two. The 6th one made me get all teary, I love the whole story behind Tex and Masaki. I wonder if his father will believe him though. I still don't get what his dad has against the android's desire to protect his son. Was it that he didn't want to share that affection? It wasn't like he was doing a particularly good job keeping his son company.

And ooo, a movie incoming? I would have liked to see a sequel as well. But I'll take the movie with added material. :3
