The purpose of the thread has been fulfilled, but I might as well dump all the quotes I found while screenshotting Planetarian here for everyone to see ^^
Now, I can reel off any number of measurements concerning the Earth for you. But there is no software in the world that can truly portray our planet’s beauty.
~ Hoshino Yumemi aka Reverie Planetarian
Overpopulation, energy issues, water problems, a rising sea level, an ecosystem in imbalance, air pollution, and finally problems of who possesses space… Currently, there are so many problems and dusputes in this world. However, this is what I believe. Mankind will be able to solve all of its problems, and will one day reach out to the world of the stars.

I pray that you will never forget this starry sky.
~ Hoshino Yumemi aka Reverie Planetarian
We robots delight in putting you humans at ease and in serving you so as not to make you feel displeased.
~ Hoshino Yumemi aka Reverie Planetarian
As I am a robot, I am incapable of dreaming, but… how shall I put it?
… I have very much longed to.

But you know, the most irritating thing in that sarcophagus city had to be the time when I met that robot. Do NOT talk to it… it is not a thing of this world.

I would have to be more careful in the future, as she had already demonstrated the capability to say things that were completely beyond my capability to anticipate or comprehend.
~ Junker
I could just imagine her pouring dirty water into a nonexistent teacup and bringing it to me with an ear-splitting smile on her face.
~ Junker
I did not know how good her waterproofing was, but what was true was that in the department of chatter generation, she was first-class.
~ Junker
“You thought I would laugh?”
No, rather, I wanted to empty an entire clip of flechettes in her direction.
~ Junker
But her ignorance and her lack of understanding were most probably not her fault. Because intelligence was not a necessary trait for a robot to faithfully execute the duties given to it.
~ Junker
The starry sky now belongs to you. That was the message she was conveying with child-like innocence to every single person born on this planet.
~ Junker
She had shown me the stars. So in turn, I was trying to show her a future that I alone could give her.
~ Junker
The fact that she was not a human but a robot did not matter. This was the bond between her and me, and the only proper exchange.
~ Junker
I wanted to tell her that this was what hunting was all about. A ritual of continued bloodshed that mankind has enacted over and over again since the dawn of its history in order to survive.
~ Junker
Even though we had once extended our reach into the vastness of space, nothing had really changed.
Mankind had now even created for itself the game to hunt, and had equipped itself with fangs that it had not by design been given.
~ Junker
So that thing was broken as well. Embraced in the arms of the unceasing rain, that mechanized monstrosity of a spearman was still dreaming. Of the gentle city that it was charged to protect, of the mighty enemis that it was charged to destroy.
~ Junker
“Out of order…”
Just what… was out of order? Was it this battle mech, which had so lost itself in anger that it was burying everything around it without regard of fiend or foe? Or was it this sarcophagus city, which had ceased to function so long ago, and in which now only lived the Rain and the memories of those who had once inhabited it?
