This month we're covering Time of Eve (Eve no Jikan), a short but fantastic ONA series from 2008 about a cafe where both androids and people are welcome and indistinguishable from one another. This episode is spoiler-free for those of you who have yet to watch! We talk about the laws, social structure, and culture of the show's setting, and what it says about human perception and interaction.
