In Summary:
The theme of androids living among humans is a popular one and has been the crux of several anime and manga such as AI Revolution, Chobits, and Time of Eve. Karakuri Odette, while it does have its cute moments as its protagonist experiences humanity through high school life, doesn't add much to the existing repertoire and handles the question "what does it mean to be human?" in a hackneyed and predictable manner.
