The 12-episode OVA Null & Peta is now streaming on Crunchyroll, featuring both English dub and subtitle options. The series follows Null, a genius inventor who creates a robot replica of her deceased older sister, Peta, in an attempt to cope with her grief. However, the robot doesn't quite turn out as expected, leading to a blend of sci-fi and comedy.
Produced by Shin-Ei Animation, known for its long-running series like Doraemon, Null & Peta explores themes of family, loss, and the complexities of artificial life through its primarily child cast and chibi art style. The premise offers a unique take on the robot genre, focusing on emotional resonance alongside its comedic elements.
While the series is a standalone story, it stems from a broader franchise that includes other shorts and media. Its availability on Crunchyroll makes it an accessible watch for fans looking for a contained, emotionally charged sci-fi comedy.
