Side Note
There's a little misconception I want to clear up that fans seem to make. When Archer makes his appearance in his new form, some people seem to think he's become a robot or an android. Neither term is correct in his case. A robot would basically be similar to an android, but he'd have no human characteristics. An android is a machine with human characteristics. What Archer is now is a cyborg. A cyborg is a human with robotic or machine parts, usually in the case of replacing lost limbs.
Hopefully we won't hear this confusion in the episodes since FUNimation has mislabled the cyborgs as androids before in Dragon Ball Z.
