Key the Metal Idol - S01

Tokiko Mima, nicknamed "Key," is a 17-year-old girl living in the Japanese countryside who, despite her human-like appearance, is a robot. When Key's grandfather Dr. Murao Mima passes away, he leaves her a dying message, telling her that she can become a real girl if she is able to make thirty thousand friends. So Key moves from the quiet Mamio Valley to the busy streets of Tokyo, where she soon runs into her childhood friend Sakura Kuriyagawa. Key quickly becomes taken with idol singer Miho Utsuse and wonders if becoming a singer will let her make the number of friends she needs to become human. But Miho carries an ominous secret: she is connected to Jinsaku Ajou, an old rival of Dr. Mima who is trying to make a new breakthrough in robotic weaponry. As Key works to become a real girl, Ajou sets a dangerous plan into action, and it turns out there is much more to Key than meets the eye.
