About Unbreakable Machine-Doll

Looking for background on Unbreakable Machine-Doll (機巧少女は傷つかない)? This action, ecchi and fantasy series by Lerche (2013) starts out like this. At its core: During the early 20th century, along with technological advancements, scientists were able to develop sophisticated magic. The combination of science and sorcery was Machinart, circuits made from spells that were put into objects to bring them to life and even gain a personality.

Soon after, it was developed as a military weapon and has now spread throughout the realm. Akabane Raishin is now attending the Royal Academy to become the best in the realm. Accompanied by the lovely teenage girl Yaya, who is actually Raishin’s puppet weapon, he plans on rocketing to the top of the class.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Raishin Akabane (Hiro Shimono) and Yaya (Hitomi Harada) are two of the characters you will meet early. It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. At 12 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.

Production & Appeal

Lerche is the studio behind Unbreakable Machine-Doll, and its direction shapes everything from character design to motion. The action focus matters here: fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 6.6/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. On the casting side, Hiro Shimono voicing Raishin Akabane gives the lead role a recognizable voice. Released in 2013, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
