Mixed Feelings
Spoiler
The series takes the all-you-can-eat buffet approach to storytelling. Rather than refining what it already has, it chooses to add yet more to keep your attention. What starts off as a main couple, with a cast of side characters popping in to spur change, turns into an ensemble cast who's been made quirky for quirky's sake (According to the author). In particular, Forty was supposed to be a little sister character, but the author thought that was too dull, so he made her also turn into a boy sometimes, but that was also too dull for the author's tastes, so he ALSO gave the boy a stern, conscientious personality (Which was meant for a girl. It'll make sense if you read it), and then the flirty party boy personality to the girl (Again, makes sense in context). The issue? The author apparently didn't have as much fun writing the boy, so he almost entirely dropped the bit. To add to that, the character suffers two full retcons, wherein the transformations between boy and girl are literally explosive, and then the girl's personality changes to "Kawaii imouto", like the creator originally intended.

You'll basically get one of two storylines:

1) The AI is bad at simple Human tasks, and we need to cope with whatever the Human problem of the day is.

2) A woman shows up and is an absolute nuisance. The most horrid examples are:

2.1) "Cindy", a rich, famous celebrity that shows up and makes an absolutely brain dead with with Saatii that whoever MC picks in a play (Playing the part of the prince) keeps him, and the other disappears. Cue three solid chapters of her being a slimy bitch, and then realizing she did wrong after Saatii tries to kill herself because MC, entirely unaware of the retarded bet they made, chose Cindy to keep the end of the play consistent with the source material, and keep her around (Because she threatened to leave if he didn't, to boot).

2.2) MC's sister shows up, blabs about the AI to the world the moment she finds out, then, to boot, tries to wake a fourth one, and manages to install literal malware into it in the process. Cue immediate disaster as it then infects everything, possibly kills countless people, and triggers a rushed, confusing ending to the story. All the sister had to do was stop touching things!
