    Yeah…this is it. What a great first episode. Such great vibes, great art, interesting characters (even if most of them can’t speak), and an interesting mystery hook bubbling under the surface. I was already hooked just by the cold open and how it was spliced together between broadcasts of the extinction of humanity and the cheerful hotel commercial.

    I am super on board with this series.

    I can’t put it into words but there is something nostalgic about this one. Comedic bits work well, the overreaction over a shampoo hat made me laugh, and the characters are charming in their own ways. I wonder who the guest is, looked like an alien. Looking forward to the next episode.

    That was interesting…

    The sadness around the dead robots, and the hopelessness of the situation those remaining are in…

    Good start, but we’ll have to see where it goes…

    There’s something so charming and cute about seeing robots go about their jobs long after there’s any need for them, so this is starting from a strong place for me. On the other hand though, it felt like we didn’t get a lot of substance this episode. It’s a little hard to tell if this is a chill and melancholy slice of life type show or if it’s building up to something a bit more involved - it’ll be easier to tell what kind of show this is when we see how our hotel staff interacts with the aliens. For now, I feel like I can’t get a strong read on this show, so I’ll give it a 3/5 and give it some more time to show off what it can do.

    Great 1st ep. This has the potential to be one of those anime that is great fun the entire time and then hit you in the face
