* Father Tres, an android in ''[[Trinity Blood]]'', speaks this way, including using "Positive" for "Yes" & "Negative" for "No", and having little to no inflection. Preferred method of attack: [[More Dakka|a fusillade of bullets]] from [[Guns Akimbo]].

* Both Averted & used in ''[[Cannon God Exaxxion]]''. The cheap, massproduction [[Mecha-Mooks]] used by the Riofaldians talk in heavy robo speak. The Terminal Drone type robots even use a more "techno"-looking [[Useful Notes/Fonts|font]]. The main character's [[Robo Girl]] partner & other robots created by his grandfather don't, since they're designed to pass for human. It averts one of the major robospeak cliches, as well. We never see the Riofaldian robots talking out loud to each other, only to organics. There's one scene that depicts a robot sending a comunication requesting backup, wich is represented by a speach baloon filled with what looks like barcodes.

* An interesting example, [[Robot Girl]] Aiko in ''[[Magical Pokaan]]''. Her speech is perfectly normal, until episode 4, wherein a malfunction causes her to realistically stutter and repeat words, along with a very low buzz, similar to wet speakers.
