Manga 'Android wa Keiken Ninzuu ni Hairimasu ka??' Gets TV Anime in 2026

I wasn't expecting to see this get an anime but hopefully the adaptation will do it justice (Though the studio behind it doesn't seem to rate particularly highly)

And if this can get an anime then that's more hope that Kitanai Kimi ga Ichiban Kawaii can get one yet

Another show where the only draw is that the characters are gay. Girls and Boys love should be a sub genre of romance only, not the defining genre of an anime. It's a little pathetic honestly, the fans will lap up anything with LGBT in it these days. Gimme a break already.

Can we get some gay anime where it's not a song and dance about being gay already? Whether that be the characters themselves or the creators projecting?

The main (human) character actually isn't established as a lesbian at the start of the story, and the main (android) character is just following her programming. The romance builds out of their time together and it's more coincidental that they both happen to be women. I kinda feel like some of the setup is a commentary on Japanese work culture, really. Akane is giving it her all and appearing at her best for her job and has no energy to really keep up her own household, let alone have a love life. A classic case of living to work.

@nx6 I could say that the Japanese have slightly different views on sexuality, which is why animanga depictions can often be confusing to Western viewers. For example, otokonoko stories are not considered BL because otokonoko are perceived as female characters. But from the looks of it, it's just yuri ecchi without any deeper thoughts.

@mshfqtny So, does the erotica tag just mean heavy ecchi, but not hentai shows?

Yeah, I'm not really arguing this is any grand story. It is a yuri ecchi. But the manga does start out as "frazzled workplace overachiever can't get the drive to clean up (and could use a release for her mental tension)". But her mind goes immediately to buying a robot to handle the housework and not, maybe, slowing down a little to enjoy the fruits of her labor. The fact the android meets her needs in *cough* other ways was not really a goal, and romance is building past that.

There have been a few studies done lately showing more acceptance from young people regarding relationships with AI and robotic beings, so this manga is a reflection of changing attitudes in the target demographic (and many young professionals in Japan who might be in similar situations of wanting companionship but not having the time to really meet and date people). Just being able to order a gf/bf online is going to resonate with a generation that grew up with Amazon.

@nx6 I don't see a problem with robotic romance. We have a lot of shows about straight relationships with robots, so what's the problem with having at least one lesbian one? Yes, I know that yuri bait with robots was already in the past, but still. Plus, judging by Gushing over Magical Girls and the overall ecchi trend, we're on the verge of the second peak of ecchi yuri after the 00s.

i don't know why you're asking me this but anyways, hentai is when they show dicks and erotica is when they don't. That's what it is for mal i think.

@mshfqtny In that case, I think the erotic tag would somewhat duplicate the ecchi tag, since hentai without a direct jump into pornography is usually called borderline hentai in the community.

@yuritheknight Is this manga still being published? I last checked it was about half a year ago. But yeah, while the brothel/sex worker yuri subgenre is incredibly broad, we haven't gotten any adaptations of it yet.

@RobertBobert yes still published if ı remember correctly it is a bi- montly manga

@yuritheknight Well, I won't mind. Yuri that doesn't try to be stuffy or quality ecchi is always welcome.

@mshfqtny I'm just saying that erotica and ecchi are interchangeable as the European and Japanese versions of the same thing. It's like we have two tags for yuri at the same time, depending on the different levels of sexuality...oh yeah.

@RobertBobert I always welcome any kind of yuri :)

@yuritheknight Variety of choice is always good.

@RobertBobert I agree, that's why I'm looking at various things in Yuri too. anyways give us toxic yuri please ı need it

@yuritheknight I don't know if this will meet your expectations of "toxic yuri", but from what I heard, there will be several agnsty yuri shows this summer.

@RobertBobert ı think this summer only yuri anime is watanare and it is not toxic one but anyways it is a harem yuri so must watch :)

@yuritheknight

toxic with heavy drama or something is fine.
