"NeCoRo" like "necrophilia"? (NeCoRo feline?)

Ew.

Neco or neko means "cat" in Japanese. You probably know where the "Ro" comes from -- duh, ROBOT!

I still like the "necrophilia" reading better.

BTW, that IS a creepy-looking robot. Doraemon is much more cuddlier. He is a "cat-like robot from the 22nd century." I like that he's blatantly unnatural -- blue and a self-declared robot. I also like that he's got no ears. I like to think that the yakusa cut them off.

"Because of its ability to react to human movement and express its own emotions, people pour their affection into this robot and feel attached to it as they would a pet. By living with each other day after day, the person becomes at ease with the robot as it enriches the person's life. " Hahahah

I particularly liked the helpful diagram pointing out which bit was the "tail" and which bits were the "legs". Thanks for that.
