The anime is a special treat for the otakus who are into sci-fi. The plot is based in the future wherein humans and robots coexist with each other. With this coexistence comes a wide range of emotions, and all the eight-episode-long anime touched the viewers’ hearts.
The atypical companionship between the robots and the humans added new perspectives to how the world is usually perceived. Even though the anime is typically a murder mystery, it brought in occasional philosophical stances for fans to enjoy.
