Bondrewd Charm :3

I want the charm loop to go through his helmet handle so you can swing him around like a yoyo

I really love this scene. It's the first time we really ever see how genuinely gentle he can be, and how much he does care for the children. The way he hugs Prushka here, and name her always gets me. He believes in full she is special from this moment, and is going to nurture this potential.

It's aspects like this that really add to his character. He's a man who can show incredible cruelty with no mercy. But he is also capable of being kind and loving. The part that always gets me and makes me love him is that it's all real despite what the end result is.

When he speaks about the children to Reg, he is proud of them. Fondly remembering what they were meant to be. This is is especially important because all cartridges look the same. Bondrewd remembers which kid is which even in that form. That what is happening isn't wasteful sacrifices to him. He respects them, he remembers them, because they are the children he loved dearly.

Love is really a curse and a blessing when it comes to this man.

Made myself a graph for robots/cyborgs/AI to know my tastes.

(note: quirky or murderous, but mostly both lmao)

Had to look up Bondrewd’s Japanese VA because he honestly knocked those “oya oya oya” moments out of the park. The surprised “whoops” when he tells Nanachi that he *may* have already embarked on robot murder/experimentation had me crying.

In the absence of facial expressions, body language and voice are so important in how Bondrewd is presented in the anime. His voice absolutely lacks any malice or anger. Instead we get surprise, delight, and pride at the “accomplishments” of “his” children. There is no doubt that Bondrewd commits horrendous actions but his voice is so disarming. The armor is intimidating, the body language veers between gentle (the head pats) and violent (riffling through Reg’s intestines so casually) but the voice is consistently polite, encouraging, and, I hesitate to say this, kind. It is fatherly. And that makes him so much more scary.

Anyway, the VA is Toshiyuki Morikawa. He has also voiced Ubuyashiki in Demon Slayer, Isshin Kurosaki in Bleach, Naraku in Inuyasha, and a whole bunch of other characters.
