The Busou Shinki TV series is a 12-Episode Anime based on the toyline of the same name, which aired from October to December 2012. There was also a thirteenth episode released as an OVA that revealed some more backstory.Ann, Ines, and Lene are Busou Shinki, a kind of small, doll-sized Robot Girl, and they live peacefully with their Master in a small apartment that they have recently returned to from overseas. This anime follows the adventures that fill their lives after the Strarf-type Hina joins them.Compare Hand Maid May, where the title robot girl maid is decidedly a non-combat model unlike the Shinki; Ichigeki Sacchu!! Hoihoi-san, where Hoihoi-san is another 1:1 scale robot doll that battles cockroaches immune to common pesticides; Angelic Layer, where the little fighting robot girls are not the focus, but their Masters are instead; and Spiritual Successor Frame Arms Girls, which started a few years later and features a female Ordinary High-School Student as the toys' owner.

comment
Just Train Wrong: After slipping off the train they hitchhiked, the heroines carry on traveling by foot along the tracks ... which which are absurdly crooked, have no consistent gauge and feature ridiculously wide and low rails. At one point a switch is shown, clearly lacking gaps for the wheel flanges (or any frog to begin with) as well as guard rails, both switchblades are stuck to the rails and the lever is awully close to the track clearly obstructing the loading gauge.

 Busou Shinki / int_3d4f0586
comment
Units Not to Scale: The Micro SD cards seen in episode 6, while certainly convincingly small, appear to be out-of-scale proportionately to the Shinki portrayal in the show, as in real life, they are comparable in size to the full MMS chestplate, whereas the micro SD cards seen in episode 6 appear to be small enough to fit into an Arnval MKII's chest cavity with room to spare. It's a little jarring, since the Shinki themselves appear to be sized exactly to their real-life toy counterparts.

 Busou Shinki / int_4cb90f31
comment
Three Laws-Compliant: The Busou Shinki appear to have a Master-centric behavioural pattern as a safeguard instead of Asimovian Laws, which generally gives them Undying Loyalty to their registered or accepted Masters. This can result in Shinki willing to go to self-destructive extremes for their Master's sake.

Disproportionate Retribution: The neighbour's Shinki, a Maochao and a Howling, treat the fact that Ann, Lene, and Ines failed to invite them over for Housewarming Soba as a major insult, and "take revenge" by pranking them in Episode 2. They remain rather sullen and a little standoffish to the girls for the rest of the show and keep mentioning the lack of housewarming soba when confronted over their manners.

Fantastic Racism: Kurusu treating Hina as the same shinki that defeated her in the world tournaments on their first meeting, when the one who defeated her was a Strarf MK II full arms model. Justified, as there is very little difference between a Strarf Mk I, Strarf Bis, Starf Mk II (Hina's model type), and Strarf MK II Full arms; just head piece, mechanical arm shoulders, and weapons.

Forgot About His Powers
 Busou Shinki / int_650a309b
comment
Forgot About His Powers: Ann and her 'sister' Shinki sometimes forget that they have flight-capable armor parts and/or weapons. Justifiable, since they spend most of their days living a peaceful existence with their Master and never enroll in Shinki combat tournaments, as he keeps them with him as companions, not fighters. Hina, on the other hand, is very quick to resort to her weaponry, as being the most recent addition to the family, as well as having a more combat-oriented personality, she's far more willing to draw her sword when trouble comes up. Episode Five also provides another justification for the girls being less willing to use their flight packs and weaponry, as both combat and flight can drain their energy reserves very quickly.

Internal Deconstruction: One episode shows that the Shinki's small size and Undying Loyalty nature can have incredibly dark consequences with terrorists using them for bombings and the like. Fortunately, the ones that the heroines ran into where just part on an exercise to prepare for such things, but it still makes clear that Shinki terrorism is a real thing.

Saving Christmas
 Busou Shinki / int_9c464123
comment
Saving Christmas (sort of): A weird combination of Santa's Sick and the Sleigh is Broke. Ann's job is helping a Santa Shinki named Tsugaru in delivering presents for a promotion. After they split up, Tsugaru is injured while playing with a dog and cannot complete her part. Ann takes over and while delivering the last present, gets caught in a snow storm sending Tsugaru's armor and sleigh crashing into a tree, which throws the present high up on a building and the sleigh running off. Ann has to get the help of Hina, Ines and Lene to get the present back.

Mirror Match Occurs in Episode 6 between Ann and another Shinki of the same model and armor color scheme as her. Even the other Shinkis have a hard time telling which is Ann. Happens again to a certain extent in episode 12 when Hina fights Shinki Champion Victoria, another Strarf model. Thankfully it gets easier to tell them apart when Hina adds Ann's armor onto hers.

Creepy Physical: In Episode 13, Ann undergoes a maintenance checkup at a Shinki facility, which includes electrical testing of her power systems that produces an interesting reaction from her. She also gets felt up by the Shinki nurse (a Brightfeather MMS1 Type-Nurse), who comments that her Master treats her body extremely well with a suggestive expression while running her hands all over Ann's body. The whole ordeal leaves Ann feeling exhausted.

Male Gaze: To some extent, the camera loves focusing on the shapely figures of the Shinki, since they're all 'gifted' with very well-sculpted bodies. One particular moment that stands out happens in Episode 3, when Hina has her scratched paintjob touched up by her Master and the camera zooms in on her butt, where the scratched paint is lovingly patched up◊.
