Boku no Tsuma wa Kanjou ga Nai

[SasazukaIchimashi]

Honestly, the robot company taking possession and erasing the memories of the robots pretty much only makes sense if they're short term rentals because, if someone buys a robot and lives for decades, wouldn't the robot be an obsolete museum piece by the time the owner dies and the robot goes back to the company for reprogramming?

I presume any robot who is bought with the specific intent of becoming a "treasured family member" will just stay with other family members even if the original owner dies. I know Erisu was built by a different, as of now unspecified, robotics company anyway so it could be that her manufacturer doesn't even have the same reclamation-upon-death policy as Ichijou Robotics, the manufacturer of the Minas.

The manga is going on hiatus as the author deals with personal issues

This is manga number 3 I'm reading that has gone on hiatus. I don't know if it's covid or what. Every author seems to be getting sick.

To be fair, this one is explicitly said to be stress from his personal life.

Is there any news on when the poor dude will be back?

Not yet. Check his Twitter for more info.

I think the "read in between the lines" reason for the hiatus is that Jirou Sugiura desperately wants an assistant for help finishing the art in the chapters and, now that one of his works has been animated, he has some leverage with the publisher to be able to agitate for one.

If you read his Twitter, Jirou Sugiura often says that he loves drawing rakugaki/doodle manga, including the rough layout version of My Wife Has No Emotion, but he's not nearly as fond of the amount of finishing work he has to put in in order for it to be able to be publishable in a magazine. (It's probably also the reason why chapters 54 and 55 of My Wife Has No Emotion were each only sixteen pages, so he has a third less finishing work to do compared to a normal-length chapter.)
