Ranging from "biological robot" to "[[HollywoodCyborg cyborg]]" to "[[CloningBlues clone]]". Anime sometimes uses the term "android" in a way different than the West. Ironically, this is closer to the original meaning, which according to the dictionary, is "An automaton that is [[CreatingLife created]] from biological materials and resembles a human" (Often in these cases, the term "Bioroid" may be used to classify them separately from the contemporary definition of Android).

The important thing is {{Artificial Human}}s look like humans, they move like them, etc. Some may be bullet proof, but you wouldn't be able to tell from touch. Sometimes the only physical indicator is eye-color, which may be red, yellow or purple, or an unusual skin/hair pigment. Not always, though, and given the range of [[TechnicolorEyes eye]] and [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair hair color]] in anime, it's not a perfect indicator.

{{Artificial Human}}s often have cognitive traits typical of a robot, such as mathematical skill and a perfect memory on the positive side, and uncreativity and excessive literal-mindedness on the negative side. Many of them also have the same kind of loyalty to their creators that robots tend to be programmed for -- although AIIsACrapshoot in the case of the ArtificialHuman just as it is when it comes to the electronic version of artificial intelligence.

But many of them have more in common with humans emotionally than robots. They are often outsiders, so their emotional states are often in the [[CloningBlues "angst" category]], which leads to bonding with the kind-hearted hero(ine) or KillAllHumans. If in a society that fully accepts them, there is usually no emotional difference.

Like robots outside anime, it doesn't matter what they're created for, they'll usually have increased strength, speed, and other powers. See SuperPoweredRobotMeterMaids.

Notice that the very first "robots" in fiction, the eponymous "robots" from Karol Capek's R.U.R., were actually Artificial Humans and not the clanking metal humanoids we now associate with that term.

Like most robotic characters, {{Artificial Human}}s tend to BecomeARealBoy over the course of the plot.

See also CreatingLife, RobotGirl and SpaceshipGirl. Technically a VirtualGhost is also an ArtificialHuman, but they are rarely treated the same. Compare RidiculouslyHumanRobot.

!!Examples

[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
* It is harder to find people who ''weren't'' artificially created in the ''{{Blame}}!'' [[TheVerse 'verse]].
* Some types of "androids" such as Mahoro from ''{{Mahoromatic}}'' or Ifurita from ''ElHazardTheMagnificentWorld'' seem rather biological in nature.
* ''DragonBallZ'' has Cell, who couldn't be called a human by any means, was a manufactured organism engineered by Dr. Gero by taking genes from each of the Z fighters.
** A straighter example would be the 8-20 series of {{Artificial Human}}s Gero created/developed before Cell. However, #17, #18 and #20 (who was Gero himself) were cyborgs.
* ''BakuretsuTenshi'': [[spoiler:Jo and Marion were designed by the rival syndicate to be the "ultimate battle angels".]]
* ''KeyTheMetalIdol'' claimed to be an android, although her exact nature isn't revealed until much later.
* Ryoko from ''TenchiMuyo'' was grown from a test-tube by Washuu.
** As is OVA Kagato being he was the hermaphrodite clone of Naja Akara, Washuu's best friend, that took over a Ryoko prototype and split off his female half.
* ''NeonGenesisEvangelion'': [[spoiler:Rei Ayanami was a human/angel clone.]]
** Also, the [[spoiler:Evangelions]] qualify at some level, as they have [[spoiler:biological bodies similar to huge human organisms (actually copied from Adam, but Angels/Apostles in ''Evangelion'' are basically what humans would be if they rejected their "humanity"), a human soul, and are literally called "jinzouningen", meaning "artificial humans"]].
* [[spoiler:The homunculi]] from ''FullMetalAlchemist''.
** Also, the [[spoiler: Philosopher's Stone-infused dummies]] from the manga. Although, since they [[spoiler: contain Philosopher's Stones, they might technically count as a type of homunculus anyway]].
* [[spoiler:Fate Testarossa]], the Wolkenritter, [[spoiler:Erio Mondial]], the members of the Numbers (including [[spoiler:Subaru and Ginga]]) and all familiars from ''MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha''. Notable in that they're all three kinds; clones, living programs, ''and'' cyborgs.
* Yuki in ''SuzumiyaHaruhi'' fits here, though what exactly she is is obscured by her TechnoBabble explanation. [[spoiler:As do Ryouko Asakura and Kimidori Emiri.]]
** In the 9th novel, yet another ArtificialHuman -- one in direct opposition to Yuki -- is introduced in the form of [[spoiler:Kuyou Suou]].
* Annapuma and Unipuma from ''DominionTankPolice'' are called androids. However, Uni is the original, and Anna was actually cloned from her, suggesting a biological origin.
* The Sexaroids of ''BubblegumCrisis'' were a rather distinct {{homage}} to the replicants of ''BladeRunner'', complete with a "what is human?" {{Aesop}} for Priss, who notably hated Boomers before meeting Sylvie.
* Although the Bioroids in ''{{Appleseed}}'' are nearly indistinguishable from humans, Cyborgs look more like HumongousMecha.
* [[spoiler:Lain Iwakura]] in ''SerialExperimentsLain'' [[spoiler:was created to hold a piece of software in her neural system.]]
** More accurately she ''is'' [[spoiler:a piece of software that had a body built around it. Or, well, that's not quite true either. It seems that she's something that has been in the Wired since its birth, and possibly existed before it in some other form. Her human body is artificial, though.]]
*** Or possibly she's just [[spoiler:the collective soul/memory/(un)conscious of mankind]]. Or she could be [[spoiler:god]]. Given that this is SerialExperimentsLain, it's difficult/impossible to tell.
* The main character and several members of the supporting case of ''YokohamaKaidashiKikou'' are androids who are oddly biological in some ways (they must eat and sleep and are basically human in personality) and definitely mechanical in others (getting struck by lightning doesn't seriously hurt Alpha, just requires that her skin be re-coated). The rather leisurely plot of the series spends a lot of time focusing on the nature of these androids.
* Melfina from ''OutlawStar'' is a "bio-android", and also the SpaceshipGirl for the titular ship.
* ''[[TriGun Trigun]]'' has [[spoiler: Vash, Knives, Tessla, Chronica, Domina, and all the other plants]]. With dramatic consequences.
* The "Humaritt" Lila from ''NajicaBlitzTactics'' is created in a laboratory and possesses superhuman abilities. Her responses are often [[EmotionlessGirl rather robotic]] at first, but she gets better.
* The Arume in ''BlueDrop'' create synthetic children that are seemingly their exact copies - aside from the tendency to explode. Originally used to battle the earth forces, they are later applied to fend off the remnants of the Arume's rather nasty biological weaponry.
* This is what Mewtwo was supposed to be in the first ''{{Pokemon}}'' movie. [[AIIsACrapshoot Not that it actually worked...]]
** Mewtwo was never intended to be human. The girl grown in the tube next to him, though...
* [[spoiler:Edel]] from ''PrincessTutu'' was created by [[spoiler:Drosselmeyer]] to influence the path of the story. She's typically called a puppet, probably in reference to the ballets ''Nutcracker'' and ''Coppelia'', but although she's strange none of the characters seem to realize this until TheReveal. Uzura, [[spoiler:who was made from the wooden remains of Edel,]] also counts.
* In ''{{Gundam 00}}'', it is heavily hinted that the Innovators, along with [[spoiler:Tieria Erde and Nena Trinity]] may be like this due to their innate ability to interact with the supercomputer VEDA.
** [[spoiler: Hinted no more in Season 2.]]
* Touko of ''KaraNoKyoukai'' created a number of perfect copies of herself (physically and mentally) using her skill as a ''dollmaker''. She uses them as backup copies of herself, in the sense of "it doesn't matter if I die because my other bodies will live on and do what I would've done." She doesn't seem to care which one is the original or whether its still alive.
** [[spoiler: As usual - with Kinoko Nasu that is - the 'truth' is more complex. Touko achieved a level of sophistry in "copying" herself, that the copy is no longer distinguishable from the original hence it ceases to be a copy and Touko can no longer tell which self is really "her".]]
* Twice in ''HellTeacherNube'':
** One morning, [[IdiotHero Hiroshi]] wakes up to find himself naked and miniaturized to the size of a mouse. When he gets [[{{Tsundere}} Kyoko]] to help and she takes him back to school, [[TomatoInTheMirror he meets]] ''[[TomatoInTheMirror himself]]''! Turns out the class decided to experiment with homunculi using the real Hiroshi as a sample, but the tiny result ended up [[CloningBlues inheriting the original's memories and personality]]. In the end, [[RomanticInterest Kyoko]] takes pity on the [[HeroicBSOD devastated]] mini-Hiroshi and creates a homunculus of her own. The two of them go off into the wilderness to make a life for themselves.
** Away on an expedition, Nube is caught in a landslide and ends up trapped underground. After several days, realizing no one is coming to rescue him, and slowly going insane from lack of human contact, he breaks the ultimate taboo: he gathers human remains found in the cave, and enchants them back to life --creating a golem-like girl who likewise latches onto him. It doesn't end well, and is a [[DownerEnding surprisingly somber plot]] in an otherwise comedy manga.
* Ennis from ''{{Baccano}}!'' is a [[OurHomunculiAreDifferent homunculus]] created from the cells of the BigBad Szilard and an unspecified, unwilling female donor. The LightNovels introduce more homunculi, most notably PsychopathicManchild Christopher Shouldered.
* In MahouSenseiNegima, current BigBad Fate Averruncus appears to be an ArtificialHuman. Evangeline (the "[[RedBaron Doll Master]]") claimed that he moved like a construct, and Fate himself has claimed that he was "made". Not to mention that his real name is [[spoiler: Tertium, Latin for "[[YouAreNumberSix The Third]]."]]
** Chachamaru recently took a step up from average [[RobotGirl Robot Girl]] after having a near-emotional-breakdown on whether on not she had a soul, or if her existence was simply a collection of data. [[spoiler: However, it's proved shortly thereafter that she does, possibly qualifying her for this trope.]]
* In the world of ''EveNoJikan'', all androids must have a holographic halo otherwise they'd be indistinguishable from humans [[spoiler: the lone exception is a bodyguard]]; the titular coffeehouse is the only place where they can turn it off and "relax". Oh, and they're [[IRobot Three Laws compliant]].
* ''{{Ghost in the Shell}}'' is teeming with these.
* Maico in ''AndroidAnnouncerMaico2010''.
* Hikaru in ''{{Figure17}}'', who is accidentally created from a PoweredArmor "Figure" after protecting Tsubasa in a battle. Hikaru becomes Tsubasa's artificial twin sister.
* Primula from {{Shuffle}} is an artificial life form, of the magic variety.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Comics]]
* Judge Dredd, both Judge Ricos and all of Dredd's clones, in ''{{Judge Dredd}}''. In the spin-off audio dramas from Big Finish, it's mentioned that much of Justice Department is made up of clones. Also, there's Mean Machine Angel, a cyborg nutcase with an emotion dial on his forehead.
* The Genetic Infantrymen from {{2000AD}}'s ''{{Rogue Trooper}}'' series.
* WonderWoman was a "perfect woman" created from clay by her "mother", Hippolyta.
* The [[GoldenAge Golden Age]] Human Torch, android hero of WWII, is visually indistinguishable from a human being.
** Aside from bursting into flame when exposed to oxygen-rich air?
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Films -- Live Action]]
* ''BladeRunner'', of course, and its novel precursor ''Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?'' And the novel continuations.
* In ''BicentennialMan'', the lead turns himself from a true robot to this.
* The whole point and plot of ''[=~A.I.: Artificial Intelligence~=]'' is the heartbreak of David having the full emotions of a human while not being loved as such.
* ''Aliens'': Bishop. "I prefer the term 'artifical person', myself."
** With the exception of ''Alien 3'', synthetic people figure prominently in all the movies. [[spoiler: In ''Alien'' and ''Alien: Resurrection'', Ash and Call, respectively, are crewmates who turn out to be androids.]] Likewise, in ''Alien: Resurrection'', Ripley herself is a clone.
* The title character of ''EdwardScissorhands''.
* The [[strike:titular]] [[strike:main]] title character in ''TheRockyHorrorPictureShow''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Literature]]
* The Robots in Karel Čapek's ''Rossum's Universal Robots'' were actually Artificial Humans.
* Also, the {{Golem}} myth in several European Jewish traditions, making this OlderThanPrint.
* The title character of RobertAHeinlein's novel ''Friday''.
-->"My mother was a test tube, my father was a knife."
** Except that the entire point of the story was [[spoiler:Friday coming to recognize that she was, in fact, human, and always had been.]] It was stated as clear that despite how Friday saw it, Friday ''was'' human, just genetically engineered and grown in an artificial womb. [[TheMentor Boss]] even chided her for thinking she was anything other than human in his first appearance.
* Marvin the Paranoid Android from ''The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy'', who lives in a constant state of angst.
* Rei Toei from William Gibson's cyberpunk novel ''Idoru'' is a sentient artificial intelligence whose "body" is a hologram.
*The DADO's from The Pendragon Adventure, who act as the bad guy's personal army from Book 7 on.
* Several characters in Bernard Werber's novels and short stories are androids or part of an artificial-life simulation software but don't know it. In fact, some of his works suggest that ''all'' of the characters and even [[spoiler:all of humankind, the gods, and the whole known universe]] might unwittingly be part of a giant software and/or experiment. Yup, Werber is a fan of Philip K. Dick.
* ''SecondApocalypse'' features artificial humans of the [[OurSoulsAreDifferent soulless (literally)]], PsychoForHire type.
* {{Frankenstein}}'s monster!
* The androids owned by the protagonist in ''Fondly Fahrenheit''.
* R. Daneel Oliwav, Dors Venabili and some other humanoid robots in IsaacAsimov's Robot and Foundation series.
* ''Hyperion'' has biroids, biologically manufactured androids. They're bright blue to keep them out of the uncanny valley.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Live Action TV]]
* The most advanced models of Cylons on ''Battlestar Galactica'' are biologically human to the point that they can mate with humans and produce offspring, and can only be readily identified as non-human by exposing them to certain exotic types of radiation. Some of them even [[TomatoInTheMirror fool themselves]].
** ''Caprica'' reveals that realistic humanoid (but not biological) Cylons could have existed 50 years ago (the accidental prototype was a ReplacementGoldfish for a scientist's daughter), but their creators ultimately chose the "toaster" design because the realistic androids were too [[UncannyValley unsettling]].
* Mack Hartford of ''PowerRangersOperationOverdrive'', built by AdventurerArchaeologist Andrew Hartford to be the son he never could get. What this says about Hartford is up to the viewer.
* ''[[SpaceAboveAndBeyond Space: Above and Beyond]]'' had the "In Vitros" or "Tanks": genetically designed clones grown in PeopleJars as forced laborers. Naturally, a Tank is made part of [[TheSquad the main cast]]. Conflict ensues, until they [[ThePowerOfFriendship learn to work together]].
* Data and his "siblings" from ''Star Trek: The Next Generation''.
* ''{{Farscape}}'' plays with this trope on a number of occasions. Played straight, the Scarrens have "bioloids" that they mostly use as {{Evil Twin}} duplicates. [[spoiler:Sikozu is also revealed to be a kind of bioloid.]] There are also neural clones, [[BrainUploading uploaded]] people who either exist virtually or within the psyche of another person. Harvey is the most prominent example, but variations appear throughout the series.
* [[BuffyTheVampireSlayer Buffy's]] sister Dawn started out "life" as the Key to Glory's own dimension but was given a human form based on the Summers gene template and inserted into Buffy's family so that Buffy would protect the Key without question. A fake life-history was created for her and magically inserted into reality to facilitate this.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
* A few advanced servitors are like this in ''{{Warhammer 40000}}'', and there's at least one case of an Adeptus Mechanicus adept deliberately seeking to ''become'' one.
* [[PrometheanTheCreated Prometheans]] are born of alchemical rituals designed to create life from corpses. [[CameBackWrong It... doesn't exactly work right]]; a new consciousness is born inside the body, powered by the very force the moves the universe. Said force makes humans batshit crazy through continued exposure, which means Prometheans have to stick to their own kind. Since they were born of an imperfect alchemical ritual, though, [[ToBecomeHuman they always have the means to finish the transmutation...]]
** And from the same universe, we have the fetches of ''ChangelingTheLost'', fake humans made by TheFairFolk to cover up their abductions. They're usually made from whatever stray garbage seems appropriate and a piece of the abductee's soul. They believe themselves to be the person they're meant to replace, but always seem to lack one feature (positive or negative) that went into the character of their template.
* EclipsePhase's Pod morphs -- short for "pod people", since they are assembled out of vat-grown limbs and organs and equipped with a computer brain.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Video Games]]
* The Realians from the ''{{Xenosaga}}'' TV and game series. In addition, Ziggy is a Cyborg relic from the past.
** Additionally, KOS-MOS and particularly Telos, since she was built from [[spoiler: the preserved body of Mary. Yes, [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotSymbolic that Mary]].]]
* In both the ''{{Xenogears}}'' and ''MegaManLegends'' video games, the heroes find out that the species on the planet are not humans. Humans died out long ago, and what's left evolved from the biological parts of their technology.
** In ''{{Xenogears}}'', [[spoiler: Ramsus Kahran]] is a clone of [[spoiler: Emperor Cain]]. And he has some issues with it....
* In ''SuperRobotWars: Original Generation'', Lamia Loveless is a cyborg who is apparently half and half. Her brain contains several computers, and parts of her limbs, sometimes entire limbs, are mechanical. She was made to infiltrate military organizations, so she acted fairly normal, if overly polite. She also has some form of super strength and durability, but it isn't particularly important.
** There are three more {{Artificial Human}}s in the ''R'' series, and subsequently got carried over to ''Original Generation Gaiden'': Duminuss' children Despoiniz, Lalia and Tiz. The three are homunculus, artificially created human, used as her minions. Though one has a HeelFaceTurn only in ''OG Gaiden''.
** Also, the Machinery Children in [[SuperRobotWarsAlpha Alpha Gaiden]]'' and the Database in ''[[SuperRobotWarsW W]]''
* In ''[[WildArms1 Wild ARMs]]'' (original and ACF version), [[spoiler:the protagonist Rudy is an android/artificial human made from technology similar to that of the Metal Demons. He is a "Holmcross", given the alchemy refs, is clearly a transliteration for "Homunculus".]]
** The other games had their share of Artificial Humans too. ''[[WildArms3 Wild ARMs 3]]'' had [[spoiler:Jet, who was similar to the first game's example, only he was created to test the theory of Filgaia as a lifeform]], and ''[[WildArms2 Wild ARMs 2]]'' and ''[[WildArms4 4]]'' had Cyborgs in the characters of Kanon and Balgaine.
* [[spoiler:Rubedo, Albedo, Nigredo, and Citrine]] from the ''{{Xenosaga}}'' videogame series are all variant clones of their creator, [[spoiler: Dr. Dmitri Yuriev]]. There were others created that collectively formed a sort of "hive mind", but [[spoiler: they were all destroyed during the Miltia Incident.]]
* In ''Prof. Layton and the Curious Village'', Prof. Layton reveals that [[spoiler:all of St. Mystere citizens are robots programed to give puzzles to find a guardian for Floria, the baron's late daughter.]]
* Bryan Fury in ''{{Tekken}}''. One {{Badass}} [[AxCrazy crazy]] [[ArtificialHuman cyborg]] at that!
* [[spoiler:Solid Snake, Liquid Snake, Solidus, and the Genome soldiers]] in ''MetalGearSolid'' and its sequels are clones of [[spoiler:Big Boss]].
* Several characters from the Einzbern family in ''FateStayNight'' and ''FateZero'' are homunculi created through magecraft.
** Also in the {{Nasuverse}}, [[spoiler:Aozaki Touko]] from ''KaraNoKyoukai'' is NighInvulnerable because of this. [[spoiler:Whenever her current "container" dies, a prepared backup is activated.]]
** Arcueid in ''{{Tsukihime}}'' is an artificial [[strike:human]] True Ancestor, created for the purpose of killing Demon Lords and Dead Apostles. She doesn't get all angsty because she doesn't seem to possess that emotion.
** Finally, also in ''FateStayNight'''s Heaven's Feel scenario, [[spoiler:Shirou is reduced to this in the True ending]].
* In ''Super Mario RPG'', the creature Belome was capable of making clones of your party in your second encounter with him.
* [[spoiler:Kalas and his brother]] in ''BatenKaitos''.
* A.B.A. in ''GuiltyGear'', a homunculus.
* In HauntingGround, [[spoiler: The first three antagonists ([[AndCallHimGeorge Debilitas]], [[AxCrazy Daniella]] and [[EvilUncle Riccardo]], and even Fiona's ''father'' are all Artificial Humans created by the BigBad. The latter two are his ''[[CloningBlues Clones]]''.]]
* ''{{Harukanaru Toki no Naka de}}'''s Abe no Yasuaki was created by his teacher [[{{Onmyodo}} Abe no Seimei]] to assist the main character (his {{Expy}} Abe no Yasutsugu from ''Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 2'' has the same origins). In the manga version, Yasuaki occasionally explains just how, [[MagiBabble because he wasn't born from a woman, he is "incomplete"]] [[OurSoulsAreDifferent and doesn't possess a heart]] [[TheStoic or emotions]], even after [[CharacterDevelopment certain events that proved otherwise]]; of course, there's always the main character to help with such cases...
* In the ''KingdomHearts'' games, Organization XIII member Vexen builds several Replicas; humanoid "puppets" made for various purposes. Two recurring traits among said Replicas are the ability to drain power from other people, and a tendency towards [[BetaTestBaddie feeling incomplete or "borrowed"]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Western Animation]]
* Some ''{{Transformers}}'' late in the original line made use of Pretender technology, which involved fleshy outer shells. Those with human shells, therefore, could shrink down and blend in with humans. This skips the BecomeARealBoy step, though, as Transformers are MechanicalLifeforms, and thus start off sentient and sapient.
** There's also the characters in ''BeastWars'', who took the Pretender technology one step further to become {{Hollywood Cyborg}}s. Even before the line between "tech" and "organic" became blurred in the series, the creators emphasized that the robots' pseudo-organic "beast modes" were "fully functional"... take that as you will.
** Don't forget that in ''TransformersAnimated'', [[spoiler: it turns out that Sari was a protoform, which is what a Transformer is before it has scanned anything for the first time. She scanned Isaac Sumdac, basically making him her Dad.]]
* Synergy of ''{{Jem}}'' is a super-computer type of this.
* Cobra "synthoids" in ''GIJoe'' could perfectly mimic real people and were key to several episodes where a FakedRipVanWinkle or BodySnatcher plot was in effect. They were apparently organic in nature, being constructed of a grey goopy matter called "Pseudoplasm" which they would [[NightmareFuel terrifyingly revert]] back into by ''melting'' if killed or self-destructed.
** The Synthoid technology was also put into use in an episode of ''{{Transformers}}'', in which Rodimus Prime, Arcee and Ultra Magnus had their minds transfered into synthetic human bodies. Luckily for the MoralGuardians, these came with automatic underwear.
* There are three examples of this in ''CodeLyoko'':
** Aelita was thought to be one of these (specifically, an AI) for two seasons, until it was revealed that she was, in fact, human, not to mention the daughter of the supercomputer's creator.
** XANA uses "Specters" in his attacks all the time, whether polymorphic (shape-shifting) or not. They are easily synthesized using the supercomputer, and usually look like one of the heroes or someone close to them. They're generally mindless, and can be used to coerce, trick, or attack the heroes.
** A version of these clones can also be utilized by the heroes themselves. So far, two have been cloned this way: Jérémie, the nerd, and William, the jock. Both were used as stand-ins -- Jérémie's took his place for a day while he worked on several programs; William's took his place for several months while the real one was trapped in Lyoko. Unfortunately, while these clones were pretty much benign and harmless (unless possessed by XANA, which both have been), they have drastically different personalities than their originals: Jérémie's clone is a bold womanizer, while William's clone is profoundly naïve and stupid.
* Eric in ''KimPossible'' [[spoiler:is such a realistic drone that everyone expects him to be human until the RoboticReveal. [[{{MadeOfPlasticine}} And he is killed by a bite from a rodent....]]]]
* ''The PowerpuffGirls'' were created by Professor Utonium with "Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice" mixed into a vat; when he accidentally spilled in [[strike:a can of Whoopass]] Chemical X.
