Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Time of Eve (イヴの時間 — Eve no Jikan) was created by Yasuhiro Yoshiura, who previously worked on Pale Cocoon, and released as six web-streamed episodes over the course of 2008 and 2009.Robots and androids have become commonplace in Japan during the near future. Their prevalence have led humans to accept robots as a part of life, although some organisations run an anti-robot media campaign and a popular news item involves individuals that have abandoned normal social interactions for the company of obedient androids; being nigh-indistinguishable from their human counterparts, save the holographic status rings hovering over their heads. The events in Eve No Jikan focus on Rikuo, a young man who comes across something unusual whilst examining the debug logs of his android, Sammy. He finds that she has been making unscheduled trips to an unknown location that only leaves a cryptic note in the log reading, "Are you enjoying the time of EVE?" Heading to the coordinates in question, Rikuo and his friend, Masaki, discover an odd cafe with an odd rule, that "Within this establishment, there shall be no distinction between humans and robots."Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Time of Eve was also released as a feature film (Time of Eve: The Movie) with a new ending and additional scenes linking the six episodes together. The six episodes are streamed on Crunchyroll, and the feature film is available for purchase and rental on the iTunes Store (as of January 2012 in the US, Canada, Australia, NZ, and Japan). The film and episodes were released as a Blu-ray and DVD in Japan (with English subtitles). The subbed version was also put on the iTunes store for the US, UK, and Canada.A Kickstarter campaign was made to fund the release of an international version of the movie on Blu-ray. It made its funding goal of $ 18 000 in less than a day. The surprised campaign hastily announced a stretch goal of $ 50 000 to produce an English, and this goal was reached a few hours later.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Three Laws-Compliant | |
| Time of Eve / int_4cb90f31 | comment |
Three Laws-Compliant: Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics are discussed and scrutinised at length in the series and movie. The original laws are addressed in the same manner as presented in Asimov's I, Robot, down to the phrases being examined frequently to explain odd robot behavior. The Laws begin to reveal loopholes as the differences between humans and robots becomes smaller, resulting in some unusual situations, such as the robots interpreting the sign at the front of the cafe as an order. | |

Fantastic Racism: Despite using robots as automated servants, humans nonetheless hold extreme prejudice against robots: a large number of the humans in the show, among them the protagonists, exhibit strong anti-robot sentiments. Moreover, anti-robot propaganda ads are prevalent in their society, and plenty of human owners are depicted to abuse/mistreat their robots. | |

Creative Sterility: Much of Rikuo's prejudice against robots is a consequence of his musical background. A classically trained pianist, he believes that the capacity to appreciate and comprehend music is a distinctly human trait. As such, the release of a robot capable of acting as a convincing pianist initially shakes him so hard he gives up on playing, although he later overcomes his mistrust for such robots and regains his passion for music in the process. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Time of Eve / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: A large number of science fiction texts are mentioned, especially Asimov's I Robot series. The films Blade Runner and THX 1138 are also noted at several points. Episodes one and three briefly show Pale Cocoon playing on a screen in the city and the family's home TV, respectively. Episode four features an older-model android equipped with full-color Terminator vision. Its appearance in the cafe is met with consternation by the usual patrons. An older-model android is shown in episode four. Its relationship with the child it was nursemaid to is similar to the story of "Robbie", one of the first I Robot short stories written by Isaac Asimov. Episode six shows "Myst" on a display below the article showing a child's death, as well as the ages - Mechanical, Channelwood, Stoneship, Selentic. The original robot story, R.U.R., has shout-out in the movie, where it is listed as a type of CPU used in an android. | |

Android Identifier | |
| Time of Eve / int_e2145533 | comment |
Android Identifier: humanoid robots are required by law to wear a holographic ring over their head resembling a halo to distinguish them from humans. The titular cafe is a place where no distinction between humans and robots is made, therefore, robot patrons turn their halos off to blend in. | |

Sugar-and-Ice Personality | |

Sugar-and-Ice Personality: Akiko acts the way robots are expected to in public, but she's very sweet and friendly in the Time of Eve cafe to those familiar with her. | |

Ridiculously Human Robots | |
| Time of Eve / int_e4900915 | comment |
Ridiculously Human Robots: Appearing indistinguishable from humans save their holographic rings, Androids become nigh-impossible to tell apart from humans in the Time of Eve Cafe. | |

The Mole | |
| Time of Eve / int_e70127 | comment |
The Mole: Setoro is a quiet man who sits in the cafe's corner reading a book and appears to be secretly working for an organisation that is less hostile to androids than the Ethics Committee. He initially suspects Masaki of being a mole for the Ethics Committee, but later concludes that no one could be that obvious. | |

Laser-Guided Amnesia | |
| Time of Eve / int_e7b0229a | comment |
Laser-Guided Amnesia: Katoran remembers what he used to do, but not who he did it for. This is a consequence of the family he worked for deliberately deleting all his memories that linked him to them, so they could get rid of him without paying the disposal fee. | |

Younger than They Look: As he is an experimental android in the beta-testing stage, Shimei is probably the youngest character at Time of Eve, despite appearing to be the oldest. | |

Jerkass: Most humans are portrayed as being indifferent at best or hostile at worst towards their own androids. Some genuinely have issues with robots while others give in to peer pressure or risk being branded a "robo-freak". | |

20 Minutes into the Future: Aside from the human-like robots featuring 2.4 petabytes of RAM, holographic computer interfaces, and camera phones with gigapixel resolutions, the world remains reasonably familiar. | |
