AnimeTV is thrilled to launch an exclusive daily feature spotlighting YOUR FORMA, the acclaimed sci-fi mystery light novel series. Starting today, June 11, celebrated light novel authors will share their thoughts on YOUR FORMA, offering personal reflections and praise for this standout work.
The first comment comes from Isuna Hasekura, the renowned author of Spice and Wolf. Known for his mastery of economic fantasy and rich character development, Hasekura lends his unique perspective to YOUR FORMA.
Isuna Hasekura Comment:
“One of the most striking aspects of this series, in my opinion, is how emotionally intense—almost wet, in a way—the robot partner of the heroine, a government investigator, turns out to be.
A standout moment for me is a scene where, amid a storyline questioning whether this robot truly has a heart or not, he desperately tries to apologize to the heroine.
Is this just a simulation of human behavior? Or something more…?
It delivers a kind of emotional “nutrient” that only comes from the heroine’s confusion and inner turmoil.
Also, the fact that the partner is a robot makes his emotional expression feel even more direct—which adds to the impact.
Because the story is rooted in suspense, the characters often face danger. But those moments also serve as strong justification for them to clash and confront each other’s thoughts.
Contrary to what the futuristic setting or plot might suggest at first glance, the emotional weight of the story is far heavier than expected.
I think this show will really resonate with anyone who loves tales of interspecies relationships.”
Each day, AnimeTV will unveil another exclusive comment from a respected figure in the light novel world, celebrating the narrative brilliance and emotional resonance of YOUR FORMA. Stay tuned for insights from more creators who shape the landscape of Japanese storytelling.

Official synopsis:
In 1992, a pandemic of viral encephalitis shook the world. The medical technology that saved humanity evolved into “Your Forma”—an invasive information device implanted into the brain. In this world where every sight, sound, and even emotion is recorded, investigating major crimes means diving into the collective data, a job reserved for special detectives called “Electronic Investigator.”
Echika Hieda, a prodigious “Electronic Investigator” assigned at an astonishingly young age, stands isolated by her exceptional talent. Her newly assigned partner is Harold, a blonde, blue-eyed humanoid “Amicus.” Together, this unrivaled duo will expose every hidden secret.
