posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
The anime's "hidden" or broadcast version will premiere on the Tokyo MX channel on April 6 at 25:20 JST (effectively, April 7 at 1:20 a.m. or April 6 at 12:20 p.m. EDT), and the "unhidden" version will stream on WWWave Corporation's AnimeFesta site in Japan. (The broadcast version will also be available on AnimeFesta, as well as on DMM TV and other services in Japan.) The anime will start running on the BS Fuji channel on April 9.
OceanVeil describes the anime:
Eita Akutsu is a loner and an introverted mecha otaku. One night, the cheerful and popular gyaru, Makina Agatsuma, suddenly appears in his apartment. But something seems off about her. When she abruptly strips in front of him... what he sees is not a human body, but a mechanical one! Makina is an AI robot designed for intimacy, yet she's been restricted from accessing any adult-related information. Eita, on the other hand, is a pure-hearted vi gin who is extremely awkward and has no experience with women at all! Thus begins their top-secret cohabitation, where no one can find out her true nature!
The anime stars:
- Tomoyo Takayanagi as Makina Agatsuma

The studio Wolfsbane is collaborating on the animation production. Yōhei Kashii (Peter Grill and the Philosopher's Time - Super Extra, My One-Hit Kill Sister) is both writing and overseeing the series scripts. Yūsaku Nakamura (chief animation director for Love Flops) is the main character designer, and Kyōhei Matsuno (Dragon Goes House-Hunting, Don't Call Us A JUNK GAME!) is composing the music.
