Consider this a formal request for a historical fiction magical boy anime about the Wright brothers.

“What do we do with things that need fixing? We give them to The Smart Friend.”

“Why won’t Mamoru’s phone work?”

“He’s logged into the computer network.”

It’s like the 1990s just reached through the screen to slap me in the face.

“Obviously what he needs is more people trying to bother him while he’s working on that machine. He’ll LOVE it.”

If the pedals were actually connected to something, that would probably alleviate some of the machine’s problems.
