Roujin Z (1991) - Katsuhiro Otomo

Synopsis:
The population of Japan is aging considerably, and care for the elderly has become costly. The government proposes a solution: a bed machine that can provide the patient with all the essentials (and non-essential) that a real nurse might offer. Haruko is one of these nurses, as well as Mr. Takazawa's your patient, who was chosen as a guinea pig for such a machine bed. Feeling that his protege is suffering from lack of love from which one can not offer mechanical bed, she tries to save him from what thinks is a martyrdom for him.
Katsuhiro Otomo, who brought us Akira / Memories / Steamboy / Neo-Tokyo / Metropolis, here is another with a pessimistic view of our future. But make no mistake, this anime is far from a typical story. It has an exceptionally original plot, a steady pace, plus a good mix of science fiction, action and comedy.
Apart from Katsuhiro Otomo, the group that did Roujin Z also includes art directors famous as Fumio Iida (Wings of Honneamise / Gunbuster OVA / Evangelion 2.0 / Macross - Do You Remember Love?) and the late Satoshi Kon (Perfect Blue / Millennium Actress / Paprika / Tokyo Godfathers / Paranoia Agent / memories).
