Summary  
Robotics expert Dr. Otoi built Signal to be a powerful companion for his young grandson, Nobuhiko. However, a mishap during Signal's programming led to an unexpected glitch. Every time Nobuhiko sneezes, Signal transforms from a temperamental adult robot into an adorable, chocolate-loving little baby.

Despite this little problem, days are usually happy and fun around the Otoi household, where robots, people and animals live in harmony. Except for the occasional feud over house cleaning chores or the affections of the female robot Elara. everything is relatively peaceful.

However, one day Signal is attacked by Pulse, one the Doctor's previous creations and the prototype for Signal. Despite being critically nearsighted, Pulse is loaded down with weapons and has been reprogrammed by Dr. Otoi's mysterious rival. He's on a mission to steal the most recent robot technology, and obliterate anything that gets in his way.

sailormel wrote: This very short series has a lot of problems. One being is that it doesn't seem to be able to decide if it is a comedy or a serious robot/android fight drama. It keeps abruptly changing from a silly slap stick comedy to very serious dark robot fights, which is pretty jarring. The main characters are likeable to a point, but there is so little character development, that you just really don't care what happens to the characters. Further, the plot, such as it is, isn't very engaging, and it seems somewhat pointless at times. It also doesn't help that the master villian is just an old guy in a robe that spends almost the entire series a super dumb video game (and his henchmen are super stupid also). Don't bother seeing this series unless you are really bored and like android series with a heavy dose of slap stick comedy. Not Recommended.
