The acting was superbly done by all parties. Night's actor did a terriffic job with all the "malfunctions". Soshi's actor was really good as well playing the part of guy that I likes her even though she does yet doesn't like him. Rikko did a good job as well though the last couple episodes were a little frustrating to me -indecisive main girls = head against wall. All the other characters were well done as well mika was a great frenemy and night's creator was outstanding as well. This drama just had such a good overall cast between the main characters, supporting characters, and even the random characters interspersed.
Music was good from what I remember -I have a terrible memory for music that I don't play myself on the piano, violin, ect....
This is definately a drama I would rewatch and I would highly recommend it to people checking out J-dramas for the first time or looking for something a bit different than most k-dramas or t-dramas.

I was really touched by how much Night loved her and believe in his emotions despite the fact that he is a robot. The actors played their role well and you get to feel for them too.
I don't really remember being impressed by the music but I'm sure it was appropriate for the drama.
This is a drama that could be re-watched as a whole. I've re-watched the beginning with a friend to get her into the drama. I personally have seen the last few episodes a few times already.
Overall, it's a drama that I highly recommend for people seeking romantic dramas.

However it turned out to be so heartwarming and funny (without having over-the-top comedy).
I didn't expect to really like Night since he's not even human. But anyway, I really liked him and I couldn't help but feel sorry for him at times.
I was a bit frustrated with Riiko's character. She didn't appreciate Night at first and later she didn't seem to appreciate Soshi as much as she should have. Gaah!
Hayami Mokomichi did an excellent job in playing the role of a robot. He had to have something artificial in his behaviour but at the same time he had to act human enough so that nobody would suspect that he was a robot. Hayami Mokomichi did that perfectly. :)
The rest of the cast was really good as well. :)
The theme song "Okaeri by Ayaka" was a good choice for this drama.♡♡

Positives;
1)Loved the cast and the acting, everybody was so adorable and suited their roles well. Even the people you grow to hate did their job well.
2)I can't get over the theme song. I just la-la-LOVE it to pieces.
3)Since I read the manga, I loved the story line/plot and I wouldn't have it any other way. (Although it wasn't identical to the manga one, the whole robotic lover idea remained CLEAR.)
Negatives;
There's only one thing I can complain about, but it's quite an important factor to the story.
1) Lacking... Je ne sais qoi.
Okay, well I do know. It lacked more romance and love between Night and Riiko. I feel like she romanced with everybody else except, Night! It was made clear that she had feelings for him, yes, that is completely true BUT they had NO intimate/romantic scenes.
Alas, it was what it was and that makes it what is is.
It was beautiful and heartfelt and I wouldn't change anything, not even the emotionally-beautiful ending.
Recommend it to everybody; especially if you've read the Manga.

At the end of the day I am happy, thankful even, that I watched Zettai Kareshi again. It reminded me of a few things I've almost forgotten.
Everybody deserves to be loved unconditionally. It doesn't matter how "ugly" you look while sleeping with your mouth open, or if you snore loudly, or if you're moody, clumsy, clingy, fat, thin, or even if you have an ugly scar, or even if you had a child while you'e unwed -- always remember that somewhere out there your very own Night Tenjo is waiting just for you.
Everybody wants, no -- needs, to be loved unconditionally, the same way Night loved Riko. There will be somebody out there who will be willing to love you flaws and all. Believe that there is someone somewhere in this world who was made just for you, who will be happy just seeing you happy, who will cry with you, who will hug you even if you're mad at him/her, who will love you just how you deserve to be loved.

Unexpected emotional story
I didn't have high expectations of this show but I was proved wrong.I was just expecting some comedy, especially after watching the first episode, and nothing more. But little did I know back then. Yes, I have to say this drama made me laugh so many times like almost no other ever.
But the main thing was that it played with my emotions like on a rollercoaster and I must admit that I cried during the whole last episode, so if you wanna watch, prepare some tissues in advance, I guarantee you will cry too.
The story was really nice, in general researching question of what is love and who is capable of it, how can love have many forms and who is able to feel it. I also really did not expect the ending, so I was really surprised by the story.

Una serie simpática y entretenida a pesar de no haberme encantado.
Riko Izawa es una oficinista que busca desesperadamente un novio. Por casualidad se topa con un ingeniero de la compañía Kronos Heaven, quien le promete presentarle a su pareja ideal. Riko acepta creyendo que estaba participando en un programa de cita a ciegas, pero en cambio le entregan a Knight Tenjo, un robot hecho para ejercer el rol del novio perfecto.En sí la trama es extremadamente sencilla, pero muy entretenida. Toda la parte de "comedia de enredos", aunque no me hizo reír en sí, se me hizo muy simpática, sobre todo porque Knight, el robot, tiene una personalidad desesperante debido a lo mucho que demuestra lo enamorado que está de Riko (cosa que causa multitud de confusiones y pone muy incómoda a la protagonista).
Otra cosa que me gustó es cómo se fue desarrollando la relación de Riko y Knight, ya que al principio ella estaba muy negada a todo. Obviamente ayuda mucho la personalidad ya mencionada del robot (al final le terminé tomando mucho cariño), porque la prota en sí se me hizo de lo más meh de la serie.
Claramente también se hace presente un triángulo amoroso, en este caso entre Knight, Riko y Soushi, que es el jefe de la protagonista. Lo que tengo para aplaudir en cuanto a este apartado es que los dos intereses románticos son muy buenas personas y quieren lo mejor para Riko, cosa que no siempre se ve (y Soushi es un muy bonito personaje, lo quiero mucho).
En la trama también meten un poco de drama con una "amiga" de Riko, una subtrama de la prota queriendo ser pastelera y varios problemas en la empresa que creó a Knight (el ingeniero que lo creó es de mis personajes favoritos), pero a pesar de todo esto llegó un punto en donde las cosas se me empezaron a hacer repetitivas y un poco predecibles, además la historia en sí nunca terminó de engancharme a pesar de no estar mal...
En fin, una serie entretenida y buena para pasar el rato, pero lamentablemente no me terminó de encantar a pesar de tener muchas cosas buenas.

Все остальные герои тоже симпатичные, хотя по поведению, да г героиня перманентно подбешивала, зато вот ее начальник и брат начальника - тоже начальник кавайчики.
