I don't know how the story will develop further, but it gives me some creepy vibes due to a person's obsession with an obvious robot without much (yet?) personality.

This robot wife is so cute oh my god I can't stop smiling looking at them.

So we will see Takuma and Mina's daily lives full of their cuteness and wholesomeness. I wonder how Takuma managed to get Mina in the first place.

This looks like it could be good. Would be funny if he called her Siri, just to see what would happen.

i mean, it was kinda cute at moments, i know i'll watch obviously ep2/3 but i'm not sure if i can enjoy this type of anime for 12 episodes lol
i like her hardworking and honest personality robonality (?) but i'm not sure if i like the design, from the closed mouth to how they show her metalic neck and stuff

tho, based on the ending song, maybe she will use different clothes and... even show emotions

i could see myself marrying a robot too since i'd have no chance (or patience) to have a relationship with a woman ... "xD"

Perhaps this is just meant as entertainment and we all have to remember that it’s fiction, or perhaps this is a dystopian hint as to where we’re going as a society and this is taking the likes of The Twilight Zone and Blade Runner to their natural conclusions. A robot/AI wife to a young loner who drinks too much…I am amused and fearful all at once.

Hand-Maid May and Chobits for a newer audience.
First ep was cute...
She was pre-owned, might be some funky programming waiting to come out besides it having access to the internet (think MS-Tay).

The first episode was quite funny. I'm curious to see what they'll do with 12 episodes. I hope it's not just these kinds of interactions between the two main characters, as that could get boring.

Read the manga for this. Not exactly the voice I imagined for Mina-chan, but that’s because with her later personality I just expected her voice to be different.
For a lot of the speculations and questions by a lot of the commenters on here, most things are addressed in some way later on in the series, but I am not sure how much is going to be adapted in this season.
Also. The Amazon tagline for volume 1 of this manga calls it a “bittersweet love story”. And it very much is. It is fun and cute and wholesome, but you get glimpses into things behind the scenes and it is a bit sad. Don’t think that’s much of a spoiler since this whole first episode is that he is lonely and falls in love with a robot. I so want to talk more about that. But I think it is better for everyone to just watch the series and see what happens.

So this is Chobits for the 21st century. Not all that impressed so far, but I suppose I wish my rice cooker could make omurice too.

If nothing else, this has made me want to watch Chobits again.
@Thoguht I've read most of the manga and "Chobits for the 21 century" isn't a bad description.

So far looks like a pretty realistic implementation of humanoid androids into real world. Unfortunately though, most likely we'll start with non-humanoid androids. Definitely not a top quality animation, but the story seems pretty interesting. It would be amazing to have such an appliance to talk to.

An interesting and strange start due to the relationship forming between the protagonist and a robot, but I've seen stranger things. I don't know how it will continue, but in my mind, I've already created a dramatic story with the company that made Mina trying to take her away because her programming changed, haha.

Given how things are going in the real world, a robot couple isn't that crazy. I think the ED was my favorite part so far.

More romance slop I see. Honestly I don't get how people are enjoying this, the first episode was boring and cringey. Not a big fan of the animation either, and just a nitpick but it was kinda off putting how she doesn't move her mouth when speaking. I get it's cause she's a robot and all but still

People seem uncomfortable with it.

That’s literally y’all.

Hence why.

The reception for this anime is the literal greatest example of cope and denial I’ve ever seen.

This is literally the future of lonely men in like half a century or so.

The premise seems pretty played out and the main thing that I see this one doing that others have not is making the robot girl emotionless. I congratulate them on their attempt at trying to take this premise down a more realistic path but is seems like a pretty cowardly attempt. We all know the type of guy who would develop feelings for a robot girlfriend is gonna just straight to sex pretty early on, hate himself for it and then maybe actually try to build a relationship with it or dispose of the robot to hide their shame. This hemming and hawing of trying to confess feelings and getting the robot to be his wife in a romantic sense and being "respectful" when it is lying in bed next to him is annoyingly bland and unrealistic. If you are gonna go the emotionless robot route why not include the incel route as well.

I'm getting Chobits and Time of Eve vibes from this series.

A random recipe generated from a list of ingredients in the fridge sounds like a good idea for AI, or an app, which they could pair with an online grocery delivery service.

If AI and robots got this good, I wouldn't mind having a robot do my cleaning/cooking. Although instead of a girl I'd prefer it look like a fluffy red panda, because if I'm going to have my ass kicked or be killed by a yandere robot, I rather it be a cute killer and not an uncanny valley sex doll.
@Estoy_Gordo Thing is if robots are ever made to look human it is because a primary function of them will be sex. Realistically humans that don't want to have sex with robots would rather any robot they get look less human because of the uncanny valley. The only reason human looking robots would be sold under the premise of any other purpose than for sex is if sex robots are so popular that it is cheaper to just reprogram sex robots for other work rather than start with a new design.

Mina works more like a robot than I would expect for this premise...
I feel like most stories of this type make the robot girl act, talk and looks exactly like a normal person, and "but she is a robot" ends up being almost an addendum on the character's profile

but Mina don't have much expression, don't even move her lips to talk, and do have a more robotic voice...

I like this way... here the main character looks more like a pathetic loser than "living the dream of have a hot robot-girl that does everything he wants living with him", which is usually the vibe on this type of story

This guy must be really broken to flirt with a robo.
@SimpLife - Many young Men are, look around. Back in my Day it was normal to have had a few girlfriends by age 15 and married by 20-25. Now I have so many juniors that are untested at age 30, thinking about being celibate their whole lives...really depends on your environment but generally speaking the Media has really broken people with unrealistic expectations and biases. Even a machine spouting out attention would fit the bill they are so lonely...

The moment I heard of this, you know I've got to watch this... I've seen way too many scenarios of this exact same case both explicit or otherwise in literature, games and other 'media'. I'm curious to see what this show would bring to the table, Though no matter how you go about it, the premise still has me cringing, especially when the MC is FUMBLING OVER A TALKING ROBOT. Nahhh...

If the phrase "Chat, Im sooo cooked" were an anime, well this would be it, and it fits perfectly to the MC who is an overworked salaryman starved of affection from significant other. I'm sure he doesn't mind having his data and personal information be shared with 'third party organizations' as long as he wants Mina to work with her online connection up all the time. Imagine the possibilities you could have with a robot like her, Mina has the potential to be the next generation Trojan horse, shock and awe baby, send them to your enemies, have her steal whatever personal information the target has and then detonate 10kg of C4 blowing your target to smithereens.

Certainly a curious possibility to ponder, not that they'd go as far as any of that in this show lol...

The OP were pretty typical of the slice-of-life type of anime but wow, the ED is a vibe, it's quite sensational. And seeing Mina smile whilst wearing a red dress under the night rain gave me that butterfly in my stomach feelings, I might understand what the MC is feeling...

não estava botando mt fé. assisti mais pelo traço da animação, achei muito fofa e bonita. O primeiro ep me fez interessar pelos próximos, então gostei.
me parece bem esquisito na vdd toda essa coisa, não sei se cai bem um relacionamento com um robô, mas eu estou achando fofo, porém, maluco também.

A man and his robot appliance housekeeper. A rom-com starts when Takuma confesses his desire to Mina to make the robot his wife. Looks promising so far but it can get awkward potentially.

This is the first time I've ever said this, but I think I like the manga better. Takuma has just such an ugly design here, he looks really weird to me, and it's hard to put a finger on why. I think a part of it is his weirdly proportioned face, and tiny pupils. It looks unnerving. Mina is spot on, though.

As someone who watched Chobits this is going to be fun. Having a relationship between a robot is just weird and sad, but I am curious about the story of this anime.

I died laughing when bro got h- almost asking the robot to give him rub down I'm dead lol. Funny bits I love it!
