(Average+) Miss Monochrome -The Animation-

Series in one sentence:
It's a joke, i
t's a joke, it's a joke, it's a joke, it's a joke, it's a joke, it's a joke.

Series in more sentences:
 
A machine projected, AA battery-powered robot girl with unexplained wealth gets the unsatiated desire to become a pop idol one day, but after getting robbed by her servant, has to involve random people to help her achieve her goal of surpassing the current number one idol; a seemingly immortal girl she swears to have met before in the far past.


There's a healthy sense of humor in this, if only because so little is explained and the character finds instant success in anything but her dream career for the majority of the series, but nothing made me smirk. The show has this slow, almost bored vibe to it. The pieces are there, but it didn't manage to excite me.

The songs are less original and inspiring than what I've heard people on Youtube create with Vocaloid software. I don't feel enriched after watching Miss Monochrome, but I can see there's a fun story hidden in there, so, well, there's no harm in checking it out for yourself.

And I lied, one joke made me laugh; the poster for the introvert, genderbent Monochrome. That episode was good enough to get its own series. I'd say it would've been better.
