An Immortal Gift For Robot-Companionship

Rating: 9/10 (12 December 2014)

I enter the theatre and donned the 3D glasses at exactly the movie start-time. Sitting in the front row, I witness the Disney previews featuring 3D animations of tomorrow-land concepts. The accompanying short intro-film is called "Feast"... about Winston, the Dog Star of dog food. A concept for serious coders... how to feed the visual binary star in the centre stage.
The feature presentation then begins with glowing images of San Fransokyo, and the city lights up with the star, Hiro Himatta, a prodigy robot-builder kid, reading his robotic creation for a competitive robot-against-robot fighting tournament. After his win in the tournament, Hiro is picked up by his older brother, and he is warned that with a robot-building gift like his, he should be preparing for college and not just gambling.
Hiro's older brother, Tadishi Hamatta, is attending the Robot School in the SanFransokyo Institute of Technology. Hiro is introduced to the other students and the serious coding challenges in the robotics development industry. The industry needs a standard that is tangible and substantial... a standard for interface and communication that will enable such marvels as medical micro-bots. At the core of the industry is the heartfelt desire to help and heal people. Developers are serious about developing robotic hardware and software that pushes the boundaries of interface and shapes the future with bright, great ideas and memes that are easy to grasp. A paradigm-shift is gradually occurring. Developers are looking to see robotics from new angles, to communicate based upon a binary outlook, and reap the rewards of this sweet technology. Science... particularly robotics, enables young heroes like Hiro Himatta to self-actualize, even upload neuro- signals, leading to seemingly limitless applications. The only limit is the human imagination.
With some development, the tech at the core will soon become revolutionary and world-renowned. There are corporate-buyers ready to buy out the nerds, and sometimes it turns out that humans are the tragedy and robots are the only remaining hope. If developers can build robots with this code at the core, robots will be enabled to save the day. Tragedy strikes and Tadishi Hammita, Hiro's older brother, dies in a fire accident at the college. That tragedy becomes the core of the struggle for justice in the heart and mind of Hiro. Hiro seeks to build a brighter future for humanity using his innovations, and to implement a code that could make him and his friends become immortals. Hiro will be enabled to help a lot of people in the process of realizing his dream. And so the plot and the struggle continue with suspense and thrills, and a few plot- twists that are surprising and revealing of the true inner motivation of Hiro and his pals. The code representing the lineage of robot designers is preserved, and there is a happy ending and an invitation for more action and intrigue for a potential sequel.
