@Louis
The description can be seen from different viewpoints, but for me it's just offending Hachiko and its loyalty to its owner, and using the concept to make a gear out of it.

Disgusting.

Basically, Hachikō is a Japanese dog which waited for his owner for more than 9 years after they died. At the age of 12 the dog died of terminal cancer and infection.

The description is just plain insulting, and this isn't the first time they've done this.
Saying the gear is more loyal then Hachiko is, in general, a horrible think to say.

In my opinion it's the exact opposite

They are implying that only a robot dog (not sentient thing) could be more loyal than Hachikou

Like I said before, it can be viewed from different angles. And it seems the majority of the people believe it's cruel and insensitive. (And I'm with those people.)
