Story
Mechanical Marie follows the tale of Marie, a legendary martial artist who hides her true identity and works as a “robot maid” in the mansion of Arthur, the heir of a powerful conglomerate with deep-seated hatred for humans. Marie’s stoic personality makes her the perfect disguise, but danger lurks around every corner. Not only must she protect Arthur from relentless assassins, but she must also guard her secret—because if her human identity is revealed, it could cost her life.
At the same time, Arthur’s growing romantic feelings for Marie make her mission all the more perilous. Between high-stakes action and a budding romance, Mechanical Marie promises a thrilling mix of comedy, suspense, and heartfelt moments.
Crunchyroll will stream the anime as it airs, bringing this unique blend of romance and action to international audiences.
