Mahoromatic: Automatic Maiden

lonestar6969★ 9

A real emotional rollercoaster anime this one is. What pulled me in straight away is that the main character knew she had 300 or so days to live and shes not even human!! From a battle maiden to a house maid, well you gotta wanna see what happens It is a comedy and yes its funny how mahoro behaves as she tries to maintain a working reletionship with her boss (a 14 year old sexually curious kid) but obviously they are much much more. She pulls you in with her bright nature yet there is an underlying dark side to her from her war torn pastthat she is desperate to keep her young innocent boss from knowing. After each fun filled episode, the days remaining in her "operating time" is shown and it really made me sad... this i believe sets this anime apart as this is such a rollercoaster of emotions. You can be laughing in one episode and cry in the next. Don't expect to see any top class fighting scenes but there are some scattered around and expect a weirdish ending.... can't really say i expected it. The characters are cute and each has their unqiue personal traits that makes this comedy one of the funnier ones i've seen. (wanna see what i've seen... check out my list then lol) For those of you who like chrono crusuade you'd definately would like this one as the story line is similar yet very different. Enjoy :D

I rarely give an anime a perfect score, but this time I have. This is because I've got nothing but respect for this anime and how it's so funny. For those who are common to the Girl meets Boy, Boy does nasty things then gets smacked in the face by Girl, yea it's that kind of anime. But the thing that's different about this anime is it's morals, lessions in life, and awesome battle scenes. Okay to sum it out, this is a tragic story of an Android from the Vesper forces, Mahoro, who has only a few days to live. In exchange of givingup her armor and other weapon systems she is given the chance to live for a year or so. She then decides to become a maid for Suguru Misato, and brings this young man a new sight of life. Originally Suguru was a very depressed individual because his mother died of sickness and his father was died by mysterious reasons. Mahroro wants to help Suguru with the time she has left, but none of the her new friends, and Suguru, know's that she will die soon. This anime has a second part but that review is for later. I first read the Manga version of this anime, and they are both good. This is an anime you shouldn't pass up. Not just because it's funny but it's just so freaken awesome.
