In interesting twist on the average "absolute boyfriend" or "chobits" type storyline

This show is both better and worse than I expected. I was expecting it to be really silly and dumb, but it has a LOT more cringe comedy in it than i expected. That being said they played that comedy MUCH better than any other production I have seen making a good bit of it watchable. There are a lot of jokes and gags you can get away with in an anime that if you try the same joke in a live action series its just painful to watch or just too stupid to watch, but you let it slide if its a cartoon. They actually managed to pull that off in a live action series and made it almost acceptable a lot of the time (which is quite a feat). They made the characters likeable and made the story addicting so its almost impossible not to binge watch (though i did find myself skipping a few seconds ahead if it got TOO cringe-worthy i still couldn't stop watching). This show is both more painful and more fun than i was expecting.
