hell yeah.
that reminds me of some movie or tv show I saw once where this nerdy scientist who is confined to a wheelchair takes a prototype female 'companion' robot home. of course she is programed and cannot understand the more complex human emotions, etc. so she basically starts going berzerk and tries to kill the man's real life love interest he finds later on in the story. pretty mental stuff.

I am also wondering if these japanese robots are anatomically correct?
