Sexy Voice and Robo (セクシーボイスアンドロボ) is a manga-based Japanese drama. The drama was very different from the manga, but for the most part had the same idea.

Plot

Follows a 14-old girl (codename: Sexy Voice) and her partner (codename: Robo) on various spy missions. They call themselves spies, but the show is really a slice of life comedy/drama. The adventures usually resolve themselves with the protagonists learning something important about themselves and the people involved at the end.

Missing Episode

Episode 7 did not air because it had a hostage situation, similar to one that happened in real life the week before. Not wanting to upset anyone, the episode was pulled. It was released with the DVD set later on.

Trivia

  • Yocchan's surname, Nanashi, literally means "no name" in Japanese.
  • Robo notes in Voice 1 that his birthday is May 22nd, because the number matched the bottom of his toy robot's foot. This coincides with episode 7's airing and was supposed to be relevant to the plot.
    • Niko's birthday is also May 22nd in episode 7.

Differences from the Manga

  • Niko is a lot more brazen in the manga. Obviously such innuendo concerning a 14 year old girl in drama form would be controversial.
    • The head spy that the duo reported to was originally an old man instead of a woman. It was probably changed for the reason mentioned above.
