This is one of my favorite shows. It is criminal how little merchandise there is to buy of it these days. I would be broke if they still produced figurines of this show.
Idk how else to tell you to watch it. It's silly, it's fun, and it's easy to watch. Not much plot to follow but noticing connections between episodes feels like a little scavenger hunt.
If you like Azumanga Daioh then you will also like this show.

easily one of the best slice of life anime you'll get to watch
it is so silly and funny in its simplicity but it's also very strange and unpredictable
that's what most people have to say about this, but i found something so deep that felt very personal: Nano chan and her journey through the acceptance of her diversity; she was a girl, a normal girl, that happened to be born a robot.
she tried so hard to hide it from everyone once she finally got to frequent school; making friends seemed scary and even scarier if they discovered she was a robot, will they be disgusted by her? will they avoid her?
Yūko on her first day at Nano, Hakase and Sakamoto's house tells Nano:
"Yes i already know that you're not a robot.
Nano-chan, you're simply Nano-chan.
*Isn't that what matters?"
*in the final episode we see Hakase finally removing the key on Nano's back that made her feel different from "normal people" and troubled her to death, but once she feels and realizes the pure love she gets from her family and her friends by her just being herself (even in her being a robot!) she attaches the key back as a sign of her accepting herself.
i don't know if i'm the only one that thinks this, but i found it as a subtle way to describe the trans' life experience.
we have to embrace being trans even with passing, being trans is beautiful and hiding it might harm trans youth, which might think it's necessary to "not look trans".
yes you are the gender you identify as, and yes you are trans. but in the end you're just yourself and you can receive love no matter what.
beside my attachment towards Nano's story, i loved Mio sooo much!!♪ i feel like her and Yūko represent me too well. also Sakamoto, he's my cynical side.
this anime helped me to fall asleep by erasing everything from my head and filling my brain with fun and relaxing thoughts.
to think this was made in 2011 and the humor still works 13 years later.. it's hard to find such a good show that doesn't age.
i do think that at some point (a little after the first half, around episode 12) the quality of the storytelling worsened, but i think that thanks to some good episodes it's worth the watch even after its peak.
