[ Episode 7: The Woman of the High Tower ]

Touchy-feely woman in the high tower is touchy-feely.

Wow. What a powerful episode. Simply put, this episode was about a woman (robot woman of course) that used to be a worker in a factory. She feels that she must continue to build things as evidenced by the massive tower. The design for the tower was outstanding as one or two close-ups revealed. The funniest thing that happened was that she actually tried to use Casshern to make a bell to put at the very top of the tower. She may not have known who he was at the time but just seeing her trying to crush him with those gears had me laughing. Also, she’s quite the touchy one. She was coping series of feels of Casshern’s chest and such constantly. Hilarious and yet very intriguing because seeing robots act in such a human way without programming is amazing (even those stupid poker-playing robots). Though I have to say, Casshern definitely has a way with the ladies.

Lastly, I liked how the writers had Ringo and Oji pass by to show how much the woman grew since Casshern left her. She’s content with just being there and ringing the bell within her heart while showing anyone that passes by the near-top of the world. Of course without any intent on using them for parts.
