But for a lot of people, this was nothing more than wasted potential because the cool and interesting premise of the story itself is heavily neglected in the process. And honestly, that's totally fine in and of itself because they make up one of the cutest couples I've seen in ages, and watching their awkward romance is surprisingly enjoyable no matter how much you see of it. Plastic Memories is about Tsukasa, and it is about Isla. Despite the premise, the anime is in fact not about the retrieval of various Giftias, nor is it about the SAI Corporation itself or any of the other people working there. This is how Plastic Memories suddenly becomes something totally different from what it originally promised to be. The two of them form a team by order of their boss, and they consequently start working together, socializing together, and of course fall in love with each other.

It forecasted an original anime with beautiful artwork, an ambient atmosphere, likeable characters and a lot of tragic drama. When I first started watching Plastic Memories back in April I was immediately very impressed by it because the first episode was simply amazing. No matter how much someone desires it, nothing lasts forever. Time is fleeting though, and Tsukasa must come to terms with his feelings for Isla before her time is up. She is a Terminal Service veteran and considered the best in Giftia retrievals, contrary to her petite figure and placid nature.

Promptly after joining Terminal Service One, Tsukasa is partnered with a beautiful Giftia named Isla. Terminal Service One, the station Tsukasa was assigned to, is responsible for collecting Giftias that have met their expiration date, before they lose their memories and become hostile. However, unlike humans, Giftias have a maximum lifespan of 81,920 hours, or around nine years and four months. SAI Corp is responsible for the creation of "Giftias"-highly advanced androids which are almost indiscernible from normal humans.
