Mahoro-matic TV 1-2
synopsis by Jareth David
(from J.U.R.A.I.'s Necronomicon 2001 Anime Guide)
Brand new, just came out on TV in Japan like 3 weeks before the con, 13 episode series from Gainax. After Evangelion came KareKano, then FuriKuri OAVs (also showing this year), and now Mahoromatic. Cute battle-android chick is decomissioned after defending Earth from alien invasion & learns she has a little over a month before her battery runs out unless she is disarmed to go lead a ‘normal’ life in which case she has a little over a year left to function, so she starts her new life as in live in maid (& bathing companion ) for an orphaned junior high school boy because she’s such a career workaholic – unlike me whenever this con comes around each year . The cluttered guest room might be worse than mine, okay, maybe not, but he has more shorts than I have concert t-shirts & neckties combined if that’s possible. Even with a housekeeper, a teenage boy doesn’t necessarily want to leave stacks of magazines lying around his room for her to pick up. His maid’s Iron Chef-like cooking skills and general cuteness have made him the envy of his classmates –and caused some jealousy of a teacher who brings out her ‘big guns’ to take on the maid. But sometimes nice things come in small packages …check a certain HandMaid’s popularity for proof. This model by Vesper may overshadow the trendiness of those vintage scooters. |
