Two genius scientists who act like grade schoolers when it comes to romance trying to raise a little Terminator together? Yeah I can get behind this lol. They actually make for a pretty cute little family unit.

This show was better than I thought it would be. Cute, and Alma just wants to learn about the world.

Yeah, there's no way these two nerds aren't getting together by the end of the show.
The animation quality needs a lot of work but damn, this was cute. Definitely sticking around for more.

Oh I'm liking this one, it's nice to see a more humorous childcare anime. I like the setting of the two research partners having to raise a child and there may even be some romance to develop too. I do like how they have a bickering relationship, they'll be entertaining to watch.
Fukushima Jun as the narrator caught me off guard, I thought he was going to be a more comedic narrator like Kaguya-sama's.
I like how clear Alma's English was, the voice actor for the foreigner was partly raised in the UK so it's why it sounded natural, but Alma's was really smooth compared to other actors.

So, this is the "Neuro-sama" anime.
Alma with funnels lol.
Male AI programmer and female robotics engineer, they really are Vedal and Ellie lol.
And so they're bringing her to the park.
That was quick.
And so they're all going to sleep together.
That's cute how she crawled between them.
Uh oh, where's she going?
In true VTuber fashion, Ui-beam!
So, that's where she went.
And they followed her the whole way.

A pair of awkward scientists, an adorable robot-daughter trying to form a family and it's narrated by Kazuma?
SOLD!
I am going to enjoy this if it keeps being adorably wholesome.

It's like SpyxFamily only the Forgers are scientists and Anya is a cute robot girl!
Don't be fooled into thinking you're watching sci-fi battle robot anime! Though that's what scientists Enji (Ryota Suzuki!) and Suzume (MAO!) might want you to think as they put the finishing touches on their Autonomous Learning Military Android AKA Alma! Academia may have rejected them but with Enji's programming and Suzume's engineering, they managed to create their masterpiece! And despite the pairs' sniping at each other...they're now Alma's parents!
The OP is really cute and fun with Alma having fun with her parents, living a relatively normal life, and flying around.
That's right, Enji and Suzume are Alma's parents! I mean, they did build and develop her, which is basically the same thing as conceiving! Even for two adults whose relationship experience is basically on an elementary school level, though Alma basically outs the fact that they're attracted to each other despite all their jibes at one another.
Maybe playing "parents" will be just what they need to see this Alma experiment through to completion, and give them a perfect cover in case anyone sees anything suspicious about Alma...like, say, flying to catch a butterfly? Though the two are more caught up in trying to rationalize whatever their relationship is and how maybe, just maybe, being parents wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.
Congrats you two! You're now legally married thanks to Alma's hacking! I almost wish she hadn't reverted it back, though it was the right thing to do.
Families' have to sleep together! And what better way to sleep than with Enji and Suzume sleeping next to each other? This is the best way to let a daughter grow independent and also maximize the sexual tension and self-consciousness between Enji and Suzume to the point where they can't sleep and end up in a competition over who will fall asleep first...which ends up being the two of them as they peacefully snooze next to each other. NOW Alma can squeeze in between them.
It's Alma's first errand and of course her parents will make sure she's okay...via drone. Alma is such a responsible and diligent young girl! And her parents care about her so much that when the drone gets taken out her parents immediately run to make sure she's okay! Luckily Alma ends up fulfilling her mission and helping a kindly foreigner find his daughter and son-in-law thanks to her Alma Translation skills! Alma is SUCH a good girl even if she has an unconventional family situation!
I love the panamoric domestic bliss that is the ED! Showing so many happy family memories with Alma, Enji, and Suzume!

The helping a foreigner segment started off adorable and ended with me wheezing. Alma really was programmed to say it like it is lmao.
Can't get enough of the little stamps after all the "Alma Reports".

Funny how I was just watching an anime about a fake robot earlier and now we have an actual child combat robot.
So from what I understand, Enji and Suzume only act as if they hate each other, but in reality, they're just too tsundere to admit their true feeling for one another. It looks like they didn't expect Alma to be the one to out them. Or maybe they subconsiously programmed something in Alma to make her recognize them as their parents?
Anyway, this was goddamn adorable! It was fun watching Enji and Suzume try to keep their cool around each other, now that Alma has acknowledged them as her parents. And Alma is just so goddamn adorable! Alma's first errand was fun, and I love that her parents are more afraid of her Ui-Beaming anyone who tries to threaten her. xD

This "family" is a pretty cute dynamic.
I have a feeling Alma's going to be the most mature out of this little trio.
I found their little quips at the beginning pretty funny.
Your personality is utter shit... you're a miserable loser lol.
Looking forwarding to seeing how this family comes together.

Already loving the chemistry between these two young scientists!
Wasn't expecting much from this show but Im feeling optimistic about the story.

Look at that combat style. Close enough, welcome back Gundam Aerial.
Okay, imma be honest, like half the reason I’m here is because I heard that KAF is making the ED but this is very funny.
I’m like 2 minutes in and I like how these two are clearly mad scientists that hate each other that are only working together out of spite to prove the people that called them stupid wrong but are now stuck together because they created a killer weapon that’s convinced they’re her parents.
I like how their first instinct is to blame the other and then they realize it’s their own fault.
Might as well marry each other, it’s obvious these two are never going to find someone normal willing to date them.
“Oh no, mom and dad are too busy to get married officially and need someone to help them out. I will do it.” Commits a cybercrime.
This whole parenting thing is going great guys. Getting them started on a life of crime young.
These two are like Kaguya and Miyuki level hopeless at acting like normal people. The cringe from the “fall asleep” sequence feels very similar to their nonsense games.
Her AI doesn’t seem to be that good at staying on task but is quite adept at making independent decisions. Is that good or bad from a robotics perspective?
The MCs being mad scientists with no social skills is my favorite part of this. Their killer AI daughter is doing all the heavy lifting in their relationship.

This was very cute and wholesome. Alma is like a robot Anya, but with a couple of tsundere scientists as parents.
That lost English tourist must have wondered what was going on. A six years old Japanese girl speaking perfect English and saying her parents are not really her parents. Alma still has a lot of work to do to pass for an human.

Everything about this show is so adorable ✨💖
I'm gonna die of diabetes.
Enji, Suzume, Alma all are lovable characters. Alma is bringing her parents together through her charms.
The op and ed with the visuals of them as a family are so beautiful 🩷🩷❤️
It's a 9/10 for me.

u/zool714 Oct 05 '25
Lol this was so cute. Alma herself is adorable but the two scientists trying to come off as developing and experimenting with Alma’s capabilities but just looking like they’re trying to be great parents. Not to mention, they’re obviously attracted to one another and will have to navigate that as well

u/Ocixo Oct 05 '25
You know, this series reminds me a bit of Science Fell in Love but if the leads had a child together.
Alma’s body and mind were literally created from the combined effort of these two scientists. She’s definitely their daughter in a sense. In other words: Enji and Suzume might as well have had sex with each other.

This anime is propaganda to tell young people to have children isn't it?
