AMS Chapter 115 : Mankind's Dream, Lost !
* Dr Moroh went to WhirlWind to complain Chihiro sending him 
  incorrect parts (C-Rings instead of the E-Rings he ordered).
  Chihiro accused Dr Moroh of his writing order, in which the words
  were very difficult to read.  As she was locking the door of
  Whirlwind when Dr Moroh show up, she refused to re-open the store
  and told him to go to K1's home to get the correct parts, as she
  thought K1 should have them.
  Robot Girl and Banpei-kun were speed racing inside the temple.
  Robot Girl hide above K1's head (use your imagination!  ^_^;)
  and Banpei-kun cannot find her ^_^;;  K1 then asked why she was
  hiding above his head and Robot Girl Shuuu'ed him.  Banpei-kun
  heard that, looked up, and found himself looking at Robot Girl's
  panty (she was wearing a skirt).  R.G. then screamed making B-kun
  run outside of the room to escape to the temple ground, where 
  B-kun met Dr Moroh. Dr M found that his dream to create a bi-pedal
  walking robot was brusted !  He then promptly change his dream to
  create a bi-pedal walking android !
  Just then RG came out and firing her Rocket-punch at B-kun.
  She then saw Dr M and said "Ireshaimase" in a very cute facial
  expression.  Dr M felt his new dream might be brusted again and
  decided to double check.  He flipped up RG's skirt to examine 
  her body causing another rocket-punch firing at him.
  Dr M waked up inside the temple.  The first thing he saw is, 
  of course, Urd.  He promptly flipped up Urd's skirt to see if
  she is a android, and was hit by Urd.
  He then explained his action and insist on closely examine RG.
  B-chan stop Dr M and told him android had her own concious and
  should not be manucipated.  Dr M then requested to see RG's
  creator, just when S-chan came into the room after fixing B-kun.
  B-chan/U-san/K1/RG all pointed to S-chan.  Dr M asked S-chan to
  confirmed she was the creator of RG, and S-chan happily confirmed.
  Dr M's world went dark.....................
