Premieres sometime in 2025. Check out the ANN article for additional information. Synopsis from AniList:

This risque romantic comedy story centers on Eita, an introvert mecha otaku high schooler who has a crush on the school's most popular girl Makina. When Eita finds Makina at her doorstep, he is flustered, and even more so when Makina reveals her secret: that she is a "sexaroid" robot designed for pleasure, and she is asking Eita to conduct some repairs on her discreetly. While Makina immediately tries to make a move on Eita physically, Eita struggles to contain himself, while also hiding her secret.

Is it intentional that Makina's name is chosen because of how it sounds close to "machine"?

“machina” is Latin for machine, e.g. “deus ex machina” and is pronounced essentially the same as the Japanese girls name Makina.

Almost as good as the character named "Eiai Nano" from Hyakkano, who isn't actually a robot, but pretty much acts like one all the time
