4''Android Announcer Maico 2010'' (also known as ''Android Ana Maico 2010'') is an anime series based on the manga series ''Maico 2010.'' The main character Maico (short for "Multi-Artificial Intelligence Computer Organism") is a pink-haired [[RobotGirl android girl]] brought in to revive a flagging radio program (although why they use an android in the form of a pretty young woman when she'll never be seen by the audience is never explained).

6Other main characters include:
7* Densuke, the male assistant director of the program, regularly abused by Matsuan.
8* Izumi, the other assistant director, who seems to do nothing except offer the occasional biting comment.
9* Katchin, the public relations manager, despised by everyone.
10* Matsuan, the director of the program. He copes with crises (and he faces many of them) by hitting Densuke and dreaming of retirement, growing tomatoes.
11* Ryoko, Matsuan's boss, who has put together the idea of Maico being on a radio program.
12* Suga, the scriptwriter.
13* Ume, the sound effects man.

16!!Tropes:
17
18%%* ArtificialHuman: Maico.
19%%* BuildingOfAdventure: The anime is set solely in the radio studio.
20* CatchPhrase: Maico's "I am not a robot, I'm an android" (in Japanese, "Robotto ja nakute, andoroido desu").
21%%* DeadpanSnarker: Izumi.
22* FunWithAcronyms: Maico's name stands for Multi-Artificial Intelligence Computer.
23* InnocentFanserviceGirl: Maico, who is naked in the premiere when taken out of her box and before her operating system is installed. Even afterward, she seems to have no inhibitions about nudity.
24* InsistentTerminology: "I am not a robot, I'm an android."
25%%* MeanBoss: Matsuan.
26%%* OfficeLady: Izumi.
27* PrematurelyBald: Matsuan isn't bald yet, but the stress of his job makes him lose a lot of hair.
28%%* RobotGirl: Maico, though she regularly says she isn't a robot.
29%%* SalaryMan: Matsuan, Densuke, and Katchin. The other men working in the studio don't fit the Trope so well.
30* SexBot: Maico was originally created to be a "sexdroid", designed specifically for sexual intercourse. However, her creator wanted her to be as human as possible instead of merely being a sex toy, and Maico herself is rather innocent and has never actually had sex before.
31* SilentBob: Ume, the sound-effects man, never speaks; he communicates by using his sound-effects machine.
32* TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture: Made in 1998, and apparently set in 2010.
33%%* VirtualCelebrity: Maico.
