Fans are excited about this anime but are worried about its inconsistencies. The story gets a bit shaky and may seem too technical sometimes.

It isn’t one of the best stories out there; however, it has its flair. There’s also a sad undertone because Mina will never be more than a machine in the end, and Takuma is just a tragic loser without her. It’s just an unfortunate, forbidden love story which is worth checking out.

About My Wife Has No Emotion

My Wife Has No Emotion is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Jirō Sugiura. It was originally published as a webcomic on the author’s Pixiv account in March 2019. An anime television series adaptation produced by Tezuka Productions is set to premiere in July 2024.

Takuma is a single guy who does nothing but go to work and come home. Too tired to do chores, he decides to get a robot to cook and keep house. “Mina-chan” is such a good housekeeper, Takuma jokes that she should become his wife. Mina takes Takuma’s joke seriously, and slowly the two start doing more things together, like having a picnic outside. As time goes by, Takuma starts to fall for Mina. How this complicated romance progresses forms the crux of the story.
