Could The Unseen Worldbuilding in Pluto Reveal Hidden Truths About Human Nature

Never thought a single malfunctioning coffee machine in a robot detective’s office would hit harder than some of the biggest reveals in Pluto so far. The way Gesicht’s investigation just took that wild turn with the AI’s hidden memories honestly feels like when the series first hinted at the Seven Greatest Robots—except now, it’s like the world itself is keeping secrets. On the flip side, that scene where the robot dog tries to fetch a stick and ends up chasing a drone instead cracked me up, total mood breaker. If these new revelations about memory tampering are true, what does that mean for the line between human and robot? Maybe the real “unseen worldbuilding” is about how we all hide parts of ourselves. Waiting for the next episode is like waiting for Gesicht to finally find the last piece of the puzzle. Anyone else got wild theories or favorite moments from this arc?

That coffee machine scene was such a gut punch, honestly. Pluto always finds a way to make the smallest details feel huge. The memory tampering stuff makes me wonder if Gesicht’s even solving his own case or just following someone else’s script. That robot dog moment was pure gold, though—needed that laugh.

That coffee machine scene honestly made me pause—like, why does a tiny glitch feel so personal? Gesicht’s struggle with his own memories blurs the line between programmed and real trauma. The robot dog chasing the drone was such a perfect break, but it almost made the darker stuff hit even harder. Pluto’s worldbuilding is nuts.
