Emmy the Robot is a webcomic written and drawn by Dominic Cellini about a Android Nanny, or 'Nandroid', named Emmy. The Sterling Robotics company developed her and the other androids to care for families and children. Emmy, though a bit naive, hopes to make the best of her new life as the caretaker for the Delaire family and their daughter Madeline.Read it here, or start here. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Emmy the Robot (Webcomic) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: It's never quite clear what decade the story is supposed to be taking place in. Everyone dresses like it's 1962, but Angela Delaire has an Eighties-style computer and telephone in her home office; Ted Delaire owns a Nineties-style camcorder; a robot breakdancer is seen wearing Eighties fashions; Corben Mendenhall owns a Walkman cassette player; one of Emmy's fellow Nandroids is assigned to a gay couple with an adopted child, which suggests the early 21st century; and Emmy herself is a technological achievement we still haven't reached in real life. | |

Hollywood Hacking: In Hacking Darcy tries to run a diagnostic on Emmy to find the glitch and tells her it probably will take some time, not like in the movies where the hacker just taps a few keys and says "I'm in", then she clarifies that she actually managed to get in at that moment because Emmy's firewall is just that bad. | |

| Emmy the Robot (Webcomic) / int_3b79029a | comment |
Crapsaccharine World: The main story is cute and innocent, but there are hints of something darker going on around the edges: the careful warnings about obsolete or malfunctioning "outmode" robots, for instance, or the casually dismissive way people treat Nandroids and other service robots, or John Sterling's casual reference to "naysayers, setbacks, and occasional humanitarian disasters" in his speech to a graduating class of Nandroids. More pronounced after Emmy accidentally becomes an outmode and gets lost in another part of the city full of derelict robots, gangs, landfills and street urchins. | |

Job-Stealing Robot | |
| Emmy the Robot (Webcomic) / int_514491f | comment |
Job-Stealing Robot: Dupont was once the the location of the three biggest robot manufacturers in America. At some point, the companies realized that robots could do the jobs of people at a faster, more efficient, and cheaper rate and began replacing their human workers with machines. This caused a public outcry and a few riots before a law was passed that required all companies in Dupont to employ human workers. Rather than fix the problem, the companies instead either left the area or went bankrupt, causing a recession, and leaving a lot of resentment for robots in the city. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
| Emmy the Robot (Webcomic) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: The properly functioning Nandroids' attitude toward Outmodes has definite hints of this. Hilariously echoed by an Oscar-esque robot hiding in the trash when he sees Emmy sitting on the bench in "his spot" and chases her away: Plenty of humans have a "Just a Machine" attitude to Nandroids. One owner of a grocery store in the poorer suburbs has banned all robots from his store entirely, tired of them stealing his products, and threatens to fire Emmy with an electric gun when she enters to ask for directions. | |

Entertainingly Wrong | |
| Emmy the Robot (Webcomic) / int_81c4faa3 | comment |
Entertainingly Wrong: Due to the Nandroids being educated in a classroom setting, rather then directly programmed with information about their jobs, they will often come to wildly incorrect conclusions about things before being told otherwise. The teaching aspect does seem to grant them a considerably higher understanding of nuance then many robots in fiction. Initially, Emmy believes the way to calm a crying baby is to smother it. She's quickly corrected and told why it's a bad idea preventing this as well as any similar mistakes. | |

When Emmy organises a tea party with some of Madeline's dolls, she calls one of them Mr Pratchett. One of the stuffed toys on Madeline's bed bears a distinct resemblance to Totoro, and another one close by looks just like a real-world Playskool Gloworm toy.

Evil Knockoff | |
| Emmy the Robot (Webcomic) / int_ca3ef034 | comment |
Evil Knockoff: A news report mentions someone producing bootleg Nandroids; most of the Nandroids in the cast are horrified by the implications and figure they must be Evil Knockoffs, but Amy thinks that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and that it makes Nandroids trendsetters. Mr. Delaire encounters one of these bootleg Nandroids at an off-brand electronics shop while searching for Emmy. While she very poorly acts like one, she quickly gets angry when he refuses to take her home and even menacingly tells him no one has to know about it. | |

Stranger Safety: While watching an outmode robot dance, Emmy witnesses that stranger outmode robot about to give a lollipop to Madeline. Fearing it may have an odd flavor and be unsafe, she grabs it before Madeline, stomps away from the park and properly throws it out on a garbage can before Madeline consumes it. | |

Precocious Crush | |
| Emmy the Robot (Webcomic) / int_d3beb0de | comment |
Precocious Crush: In a subplot from the bonus comics, Corbin's friend Ajay has a crush on Corbin's nandroid Molly, to the point where his ambition is to get into politics so he can pass a law that will allow marriages between humans and robots. When Corbin tells Molly about this, she laughs and explains that nandroids are taught about such things in training, implying that she's just going to ignore it. This disappoints Corbin, who had been hoping that she would openly rebuke Ajay for "disrespecting" her. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| Emmy the Robot (Webcomic) / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: Sterling's board of directors prove to be fairly open to input from company employees, approving of Dr. Webb's decision to look into any potential glitches with Emmy's update rather just dispose of her. One of the directors even openly praises his dedication and compassion. Unfortunately, Webb's direct superior opts to ignore the greenlight. | |

Who Would Want to Watch Us? | |
| Emmy the Robot (Webcomic) / int_e236af66 | comment |
Who Would Want to Watch Us?: In Bedtime Story, Emmy thinks a story about the daily life of a robot nanny would be too boring for modern audiences. Madeline retorts that people make books about boring people all the time, and her school makes her read them. | |
