Shame about the anime, but the manga's still good.

Never heard of the series. What happened with the anime?

It was... not good.

Everything about the story is potentially awkward - the MC is an awkward loner, the FMC is a literal robot, and their love is awkward on multiple levels - not only is it weird and unsettling in-universe, but they're both just bad at it - not really equipped to express love.

But in the manga, there's a charm that shines through, mostly because they're both so earnest and determined. Even though it's strange and awkward and even though they're not very good at it, they're going to make this work, and they do.

The anime somehow failed to capture that charm, so all that was left was the awkwardness.

The anime was just not a great adaptation. They made the MC really pathetic and it was hard to watch. I only got a couple episodes in before I dropped it. It just aired this past Summer season.
