Does it Count if You Lose Your Innocence to an Android?

Yakinikuteishoku, ICHIJINSHA/WWWave

1. Does it Count if You Lose Your Innocence to an Android?

アンドロイドは経験人数に入りますか?? (Android wa Keiken Ninzū ni Hairimasu ka?) [Subtitled Only]

Summary
Akane Tsuda (28), working at a major electronics manufacturer, impulsively buys something while drunk—something that guarantees a felony just for possession!? Turns out, it was Nadeshiko, an illegally manufactured adult romance android!
Akane finds herself at Nadeshiko’s mercy, but despite being toyed with, she’s drawn to Nadeshiko’s various impressive skills…? The single office lady and the android begin their naughty cohabitation life together!!

Staff Commentary
Humans at the mercy of androids!? You might be thinking, “Is that really okay?” Well, let me go out on a limb and say: it is ABSOLUTELY okay! Watching Akane get flustered by the aggressively affectionate Nadeshiko is simply irresistible. That dynamic is the heart of this series—and its greatest charm. And the big question is… Can Akane, while being toyed with by the ever-eager Nadeshiko, successfully complete “Master Authentication”? Let’s all keep an eye on their slightly naughty, yet heartwarming life together!

Ep.1 Sneak Peek

1. Akane works at a major corporation. At the office, she’s a reliable employee everyone depends on—but…
2. At home, she’s a different story. Even dependable Akane drinks to cope with her anxiety about the future. One night, in a drunken stupor, she makes a drastic decision…
3. She impulsively buys an android. As she waits to see what kind of robot will arrive…
4. What shows up is “Nadeshiko,” an android developed for—ahem—adult purposes! And so, their cohabitation begins.

2. Ichigo Aika: Strawberry Elegy

イチゴ哀歌 ―雑で生イキな妹と割り切れない兄― (Ichigo Aika Zatsu de Namaiki na Aitsu to Warikirenai Ore~) [English Dub and Subtitled]

Summary
My step-sister from Dad’s remarriage was a hardcore gal—the complete opposite of me…! Even after moving in together, Aika keeps bringing guys home and doing whatever she wants, driving Kota crazy.
But after a certain incident, she starts demanding hugs from him and more…!? A bumpy step-sibling romance comedy between a sassy gal and a nit-picky, straight-laced step-brother bursts onto the scene!

Staff Commentary
Let me say this up front: this isn’t just a lewd anime. An ideal life with a step-sister? Sure, that sounds nice. But! The step-sister in this show doesn’t dote on her big brother—instead, she hurls abuse at him. (Though I know some of you might consider that a reward in itself…)
The real focus is on how these two, who start off with the worst possible chemistry, slowly deepen their bond. A toxic sister and a strict brother—both carrying darkness in their hearts. In time, they become the light that saves each other. That’s the kind of story this is. Just watch Episode 1—you’ll see.

Ep.1 Sneak Peek

1. Aika and Kota become step-siblings after their parents remarry.
2. However, their relationship is absolutely terrible…
3. Their hellish life together begins. But in the midst of it all, something strange happens…
