@@nikik5567 No. This was many years prior to the raid on Arasaka. Michiko is pushing 80 in 2077. Adam Smasher was a heavily augmented cyborg in 2023. When this campaign happened, Smasher was likely about as chromed as a late-game V. Smasher going full borg was a consequence of years and years of serving Arasaka and taking constant danage to his meat parts. Bottom line, he still had his plumbing way back when!

His combat suit body wasn't his only one. Smasher also had a "backup" body he could be put in that wasn't a walking tank. It was actually an Elvis look-alike he would use on the very rare occasions he didn't need to be killing or threatening to kill something.
In this artwork from Cyberpunk Red, it seems like the CEO of Biotechnica is putting his hands on her with a dirty look and seems like Michiko can't look at him in straight. Did something happen to them too?
Honestly, not sure. Good call though. Maybe to establish a better relationship with BioTechnica, Arasaka, you know. Did some behind the scenes controversial stuff
nah smasher was a natural pyschapath he was always this way its just he finds it more fun to scare ill and intimidate others then "play social" only people he geuinly respects which is incrediply few would he enjoy any form of socialization. he still has his "android body" he just never uses it cause its "not as fun" compared to his totaly customized warborg body.
Nice thought, but Adam has been working for 'Saka since at least 2013. He was a soldier before that. Arasaka approached him with an offer to fully convert his flesh to chrome if he became the Arasaka family's top assassin. Michiko would have been born by that time but not by much.
Michiko Arasaka: hey smashy are you off? Adam smasher: busy killing people. Michiko: I'm home alone right now Adam: I'm busy. Michiko: I can be your cut f****able meat~ Adam: *smashes through the roof to her*
To be fair, I think he was in a Gemini body at the time, which are precision engineered baddies. Can only imagine the confusion when she saw him again in his, shall we say, work clothes.
The reason I feel like he doesn't go crazy us due to the fact that he lost his humanity as he upgraded more and more to a robot. So, he can't go crazy.
Imagine he caught feelings, realised that catching feelings feels like this, then he just decided to go full borg to get rid of human emotions. His body is the ultimate coping mechanism.
Okay, some necessary context, for this, Adam Smasher used what is called a Gemini Body, which is an alternate body he can choose to download his brain into, that looked like a blonde Elvis. He went out with Michiko (mostly) because she wanted to and not even Adam Smasher can get away with disrespecting an Arasaka Princess.
Not only did this man smash, he had a custom body he did it with, not the combat body we see in Johnny's memory, instead the body he used was made to look like a young blonde Elvis Presley
I don't know about you but when I first heard about the "Wild Fling" knowing Adam it might've been in a literal sense that Adam yeeted Michiko across the room
for those wondering, he did not date her in his usual armored body suit or military gear. He used a body suit that is basically a blonde Elvis Presley, and that suit is also his casual wear when off duty as far as we know. So yeah, he dated her as a blonde Elvis.
So Adam Smasher can put his brain(the only real actual human part of him left. The brain is Adam Smasher) etc into different body shells so to speak??. So he could in theory walk around as a cute cyborg anime girl?.. Cool
