The moral behind Malice@Doll[]
Concept art of Malice Doll, Malice@Doll
Malice@Doll brings out the fragility of human beings with the mentionning of Malice Doll discovering her new form, her emotions taking over her in difficult situations. It also brings out the role of robots in our actual society and their probable roles after their improvements and the end of the human race. This explains the potential arrival for robots to embody human emotions and reactions, enhancing the initial meaning of the series and leading to a moral about the nature of life and pain, and the purpose of existense. To sum up, Malice@Doll raises the question about what it means to be human or machine, when if machines could, they could become human after learning about the meaning of being human ; expressing and feeling emotions, having a soul, a beating heart. The use of sexual intimacy in the series reveals the shift in sensations between those a robot cannot feel but a human being can experience, with Malice and the other dolls initially being used for the pleasure of others and then engaging in sexual relations of their own free will and desire. Malice's only fonction was to gift kisses, which is highly intimate in the human society. Every doll express their feelings after their transformations, here's a quote from one of the doll, Misty : "Until now i would pretend to be in pain" as she was pretending to be human for the pleasure of others, just like the other dolls did too. They were seen as human due to their appearence and automatic reactions to situations, but they never felt human, and thanks to Malice, they could for a moment.
