Emmy is a "nandroid" (a portmanteau of ''nanny'' and ''android''/''gynoid''), a high-end line of robotic maidservants developed by the company Sterling Robotics to provide care for human families.
 
Emmy first appeared in a character sheet posted by Dominic on Twitter in July 20, 2019.<ref>https://twitter.com/DomCellini_Art/status/1152701149146955776</ref> One day later, the artist posted the series' first official chapter.<ref>[https://twitter.com/DomCellini_Art/status/1153051511641059328 Android Etiquette Rule 15]</ref> The webcomics were also posted in Dominic's Instagram account.<ref>[https://www.instagram.com/dommcell/?hl=en dommcell's official Instagram account '''(REQUIRES SIGN IN)''']</ref> The comics were re-uploaded to Webtoons starting on April 5, 2020, with a "cleaner" image as opposed to earlier releases having a "grainy" effect to them. Since then it has become a serialized webcomic with a weekly release until 2020 June 26, where it was switched to a bi-weekly releaseon June 26, 2020.
 
The earliest mention of Emmy as the nandroid character in 4chan's /co/ board appears to be in a thread about "Cute robots" dated August 25, 2020, and is possibly also the first instance of Emmy being used as the OP image.<ref>[https://boards.fireden.net/co/thread/109588165/#q109588165 /co/ thread w/ (possibly) the earliest mention of "Emmy" and earliest instance of Emmy as OP pic]</ref> The appealing concept of nandroids had made lasting impressions among /co/mrades, and the series quickly developed a dedicated fanbase. These usersthat wereis largely responsible for creating plenty of Nandroid-related fanart, with several OC's becoming well-known amongst the community. Thus, a dedicated booru site was created to house all of these drawings.
 
Outside of /co/ however, Emmy's popularity began to rise in the /pol/itically incorrect board starting from early 2020 onwards, becoming a popular subject on the board's frequent sexbot / robowaifu threads because of her cuteattractive appearance and the subservient, loyal nature of nandroids.
