Synopsis

After being dismissed by their former colleagues, a pair of rival scientists build an advanced combat robot, and the robot decides they should be her parents. Alma is an autonomous, self-learning AI created by Enji Kamisato and Suzume Yobane, two geniuses who work together brilliantly but can barely stand each other outside the lab. They built Alma to prove their talents to the world after being dismissed by former colleagues. The problem is, Alma learns fast. She observes their dynamic, concludes they're her mom and dad, and then hacks official records to register them as a married couple. Now Enji and Suzume are stuck living together, raising a robot daughter who genuinely wants them to be a family, while they can't even agree on what to have for dinner. The comedy here comes from the contrast: cutting-edge sci-fi premise, deeply mundane domestic chaos. Alma's earnest attempts to push her "parents" closer together give the show a warmth that sneaks up on you between the bickering and the awkward cohabitation bits. If you liked the emotional human-AI relationships in Plastic Memories or Chobits but want something lighter and more comedic, this hits a nice sweet spot. The romance builds slowly through forced proximity, which works well across the 11-episode run from Studio Flad. It's a cozy watch, the kind of found-family story where the family was literally engineered, and somehow that makes it more endearing.

This is such a fun series! It's wholesome, cozy, funny, and romantic. Starting off, the story is pretty fun, and its direction primarily focuses on Alma's development. That said, its randomness feels like your average comedy, so there's not much to comment on in that regard. That said, I can't emphasize enough how fun this series is to watch. The comedic moments are incredibly wholesome and directly contribute to the characters' development. The cozy atmosphere and the romance between the leads are just as enjoyable. To nitpick, though, it'd be how "childish" Enji and Suzume can be. Their romantic experience feels like that of grade schoolers, LOL! Craftsmanship-wise, it's great, but there's nothing particularly outstanding about it. Overall, the visuals are clean, the animation is fluid, and everything is very satisfying to watch. Overall, I'd rate this series a 9/10. I really love the overall direction of the story. It's simply too wholesome.
