The screenshots above do not give an idea of the episode’s plot, but the robot maid is certainly at the center of it. The characters and the setting have a strong Doraemon-like feel to them, but they seem to be catering to older audiences as well.

Interestingly, the cover of the first volume parodies the cover image of Doraemon’s first volume. Me & Roboco has been in print since 2020 and stood at 13th place in the 2021 Next Manga Awards. It also stood at 11th place in the list of Nationwide Bookstore Employees’ Recommended Comics of 2022.

About Me & Roboco

Me & Roboco is a manga series by Shūhei Miyazaki which started serialization in the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in July 2020. Both MANGA Plus and Viz Media publish the manga’s chapter digitally in English.

It is set in an unknown year in a futuristic Japan. Every family owns a maid robot, except Bondo, our protagonist. He somehow manages to get a maid, but she turns out to be a buff woman who can smash trucks but is bad at housework.

Thus ensues the many adventures of Bondo accompanied by his impossibly strong and emotional AI maid.
