Synopsis

In 2039, helper androids are widespread as general purpose electronics.

Keiichiro lost his family in a traffic accident and retired from his band. One day, he finds an old model android in a garbage dump. He takes her home but after taking her to a repair shop he was told she couldn't be repaired so he planed to throw her away, but the next day he finds her making breakfast for him. Thus begin the summer days of a memory less android and a dreamless boy.

Kowarekake no Orgel was originally an independent animation released as an OVA. Later on it received a theatrical release that is a bit different and longer than the original.

The struggle Kowarekake no Orgol had to go through to become an entry on MAL was, in my opinion, nothing short of an epic battle, as such a wonderful anime should fully deserve to be here on the first second of its release - unlike anime-styled Windows commercials.

That being said, Kowarekake no Orgol is a story of an unusual summer, when Keiichiro found a "person" who helped him to get out of the misery life put him trough.

Hello this is my first review. Here goes nothing.

Well not to spoil this OVA (yes it is a OVA, even though some viewers don't like to watch OVA of anime because sometimes they aren't good enough) but there isn't much to write about.

[Story: 8/10]

The storyline I thoroughly enjoyed because it was lighthearted and easygoing. Yet I wish there was more and this did have (notice: did have) potential to be a good anime.

[Art: 9/10]

I went into this thinking that the art was going to be bad, because I have seen some OVA where the producers don't even care about this and just threw stuff together. read more

Recommendations

In Chobits, the main male character finds a persocom that has been thrown away. Similarly in Kowarekake no Orgel, there is a male character who finds an android that looks like a human. The persocom and the android are child-like so the male characters watch over them with care.

A show that is very much emotional and heartfelt as the other.
