EPISODE CONTEXT

As the series opener of a 13-episode run, 'Lonely Puppet' carries the full weight of world-building and character establishment — there is nothing before it, and everything that follows depends on what it plants here. This episode lays the emotional and thematic groundwork for Jiro's central conflict: his struggle to reconcile artificial existence with a functioning moral compass. It feeds directly into Episode 2, 'Mad Machine,' where Jiro's external challenges begin escalating alongside the deepening dynamics with Dr. Komyoji's family.
