Ponkotsu Ponko is a wholesome and adorable read! It’s a comedy slice of life with a sweet (and ‘useless’) older model robot maid, Ponko, sent out to live with a more bitter old man, Genji. Reading on, the story will introduce more of what led up to Ponko to be sent out to Genji and their friendship. The reader will get introduced to a few side characters throughout the quiet town that our characters reside in resulting in Ponko making friends. Although she is deemed useless, everyone in town is quite fond of Ponko! There is the right amount of comedy with shenanigans our maincharacters get into because of Ponko but a good amount of sadness as we dwell into the past but also as we move forward in Genji’s life as well.
