Moekan The Animation

Moekan follows Takahiro, a strict, seemingly-cold guy, who is in charge of a facility for training combat-maid androids. The story begins with the arrival of a new recruit, Rinia, an older model android, with a clumsy streak. We then watch as the two interact.

Due to it's shortness, the series shoves the story and character development along, and it feels like everything's going just a bit too fast, leaving the impression that they forgot to mention a few bits.

Also, some of the story elements don't quite make sense, for instance, the company that Takahiro works for makes two completely contradictory actions. This would make sense if there was a seperate faction in the company with their own agenda, but this is never actually demonstrated, so it's hard to say for sure. Perhaps the game it's based on is more informative.

There are a bunch of other elements to the story/background that I find weird, but I won't bother going into them here.

Comedy is included, but it doesn't really stand out.

The animation and sound are decent, though nothing special. There is some combat included in the show, and looks nice enough.

Overall, the series has a warm-and-fuzzy, "everything will work out alright" vibe, and if you embrace that sort of feeling without worrying about the details, then you'll probably enjoy this. On the other hand, the more cynical viewers will probably utter a phrase that includes the words 'sentimental tripe' or something to that effect.

Either way, you can probably find better things to watch, but Moekan will do in a pinch. read more
