Review
My Dear Marie plays out in an episodic fashion and it doesn't really have an ending either. In the first episode both Marie's compete in a game of tennis. The Marie android that Hiroshi created wins the match and he scores a date with the real Marie. In the second episode we're introduced to Hibiki, a tough blonde-haired girl who falls in love with Hiroshi at first sight. She is mad at herself for falling for a geek like him, though. The last, and best, episode is about Marie's dreams. Hiroshi gives her a software program that allows her to dream at night which makes for some fun adventures.

Marie is a charming girl and highlight of the show. The series jumps right into things because she acts like a human right off the bat and doesn't need to be taught anything. Of course, Marie begins developing feelings for her creator. Hiroshi is an inventor with a geek personality, yet he comes accross as a rather good guy. Despite the show's short length, it works because it focuses on a very small cast.

Watching My Dear Marie puts me in a good mood and makes me chuckle once in awhile. It features good artwork and fluid animation. There is nudity and also some ecchi content used mostly for comedy purposes.

I had a good time watching My Dear Marie, it's a sweet little series with just enough heart and comedy and I wish there was more of it. A delightful title you should check out.
