At the same time, the short clip contains a scene, where Takuma jokingly asks the robot to become his wife. However, Mina takes it seriously and her eyes widen. The trailer then shows the housekeeping robot making "omurice" with "Love Takuma" written on top with ketchup.

Additionally, the anime's staff announced that there would be a TMS/Sega booth at the AnimeJapan 2024 this weekend, where fans can interact with a Mina avatar using Live2D graphics technology.

The voice actors for Mina (Konomi Inagaki) and Takuma (Toshiyuki Toyonaga) will also attend the talk show event. Additionally, the followers of My Wife Has No Emotion anime's X account (@bokutsuma_anime) can receive a clear file folder and stickers at the booth.

My Wife Has No Emotion anime features a stellar staff, with Fumihiro Yoshimura handling the directorial duties at Tezuka Productions. Mitsutaka Hirota, famous for his contributions to the Rent-A-Girlfriend series, is working on the series' scripts, while Zenjiro Ukulele is designing the characters.

Seven Seas Entertainment publishes the manga in English, and it describes the plot as follows:

"Takuma is a single guy who does nothing but go to work and come home. Too tired to do chores, he decides to get a robot to cook and keep house. 'Mina-chan' is such a good housekeeper, Takuma jokes that she should become his wife."

It continues:

"Mina takes Takuma's joke seriously, and slowly the two start doing more things together, like having a picnic outside. As time goes by, Takuma starts to fall for Mina, but can a human and a robot ever have an equal, loving relationship?"
