Review
Suguru is a young man with problems many others his age just might kill to have. An orphan, Suguru lives on his own, but his housekeeping skills are so poor that it's becoming painfully obvious he needs help. Enter Mahoro, a buxom 19 year-old who offers to be Suguru's maid. Possessing some superhuman abilities and claiming to be an android, Mahoro elicits some suspicion from Suguru's friends and causes him some grief, but Suguru can't say no to a girl who looks like Mahoro and cleans so well. Unfortunately, Suguru has no idea that Mahoro is scheduled to live for only 398 more days and has more than a few reasons for choosing Suguru for an employer...
Episodes comprise:
1. In A Hyndrangea Garden
2. Lady Teacher Saori: Age 25
3. How Shallow The Grave
4. I Will Shoot Him Through The Heart
Based on the manga by writer Bunjuro Nakayama and artist Bow Ditama, Mahoro's adventures are brought to life by a talented team headed up by director Hiroyuki Yamaga (Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi, Wings of Honneamise) and character designer & animator Kazuhiro Takamura (Steel Angel Kurumi, FLCL). Additional character design is supplied by none other than Hideaki Anno (Neon Genesis Evangelion, Cutey Honey)!
Managing to balance an irrepressibly kawaii ('cute' in the original Japanese) animation style, plenty of fan service and endearingly effective moments of pathos, 'Mahoromatic' is much more than your average comedy anime series!
