A.I. Love You

Hitoshi names her Saati and teaches her about the real world, while she instructs him on how to properly have a girlfriend.

The English adaptation was well received, and although reviewers pointed out that Akamatsu's artwork was not at the professional level yet, they praised the story and characters.

The story centres on Hitoshi Kōbe, an average first-year in high school who fails miserably in academic, athletic and social situations.

The series then follows their now not so ordinary lives, as well as other A.I.s of Hitoshi's creation as they attempt to keep Saati's secret while she adapts to the lifestyle of humans.

[citation needed] Publisher Kodansha then switched the manga to Magazine Special where the series ended in 1997.

[1][2] The series was subsequently re-released by Kodansha through KC Deluxe from November, 1999 to June, 2000 this time though with eight volumes.

Tokyopop announced a month later though at Anime Expo 2003 that it had officially licensed the series for an English language release in North America.

[6] The discontinuation was a result of Kodansha letting its licenses expire with Tokyopop which led to the removal of some of company's biggest titles.

Samantha from Manga Life gave the first book an A rating calling it a "very deep series".

[9] Allen Divers from Anime News Network also gave the first volume a review calling the story predictable.
