Mechanical Marie Episode 10: Fluff, Drama, and That Cliffhanger We All Knew Was Coming (But Still Screamed About)

If you’ve been binging Mechanical Marie (Kikaijikake no Marie) like the rest of us, you know the first half of Season 1 was all about Marie pretending to be a robot maid for Arthur—this rich, brooding kid who lowkey hates humans. But Episode 10? It’s like the show decided to drop the act (literally) and give us the fluff we’ve been craving. Let’s dive in.

First off, the big secret is out: Arthur knows Marie isn’t a robot. And instead of flipping his lid (which we all expected), he’s over here panicking like a teen who just asked their crush out. The episode opens with an amusement park date—sort of. Marie’s still playing the robot part (deadpan face, stiff movements), but Arthur can’t stop staring at her like she’s the best thing since sliced bread. Fans on MyAnimeList were losing it over his flustered moments: “Arthur getting restless around Marie now that he knows she’s human is so relatable,” one commenter said. “Dude’s trying to play cool but failing miserably.”

Then there’s Isabel. Oh, Isabel. If you’ve been following the show, you know she’s this annoying girl who keeps crashing Arthur and Marie’s moments. But Episode 10 finally gives her a plot twist: she doesn’t even like Arthur—she’s into his brother, Maynard! Most fans were thrilled to see her go (one commenter called her a “bloody annoying brat”), but some thought her exit was a bit sudden. Either way, good riddance—we need more Arthur-Marie time.

The amusement park scenes were peak rom-com energy. Arthur tries to win Marie a stuffed animal (and fails miserably), they share cotton candy, and for a second, it feels like any other cute date. But then Isabel shows up, and things get messy. Her confession to Arthur is cringe, but when she admits she likes Maynard? It’s a relief. The show even throws in a fourth wall break here—mentioning Isabel was in Episode 8—and fans loved it. “That fourth wall break was so random but fun,” one Reddit user said. “It felt like the show was talking directly to us.”

Another highlight: Arthur’s internal monologue. Now that he knows Marie’s human, he can’t stop thinking about her. He’s nervous around her, he stutters, and he even tries to make excuses to be near her. Fans found this side of him adorable: “Arthur’s fluster is the best part of the episode,” a MyAnimeList commenter wrote. “He’s so used to being in control, but Marie has him wrapped around her finger.”

And let’s not forget the cliffhanger. The episode ends with Marie about to take a shower, and Arthur standing outside the door. The preview for next episode teases him using the “I need to check your robot specs” excuse to get in. Fans are split: some think it’s gonna be a funny, awkward moment (like Arthur accidentally seeing her), others are hoping for more romance. Either way, we’re all counting down the days until the next episode.

Overall, Episode 10 was a hit. It balanced fluff, drama, and humor perfectly. The shift in Arthur and Marie’s dynamic (now that he knows the truth) is refreshing, and the cliffhanger has everyone hyped. If you haven’t watched it yet, what are you waiting for? And if you have—let’s be real, you’re already replaying that preview in your head, aren’t you?

Mechanical Marie Episode 10 gets a solid 9/10. It’s fun, it’s cute, and it leaves you wanting more. Can’t wait to see what happens next!
