Upgrade My Mecha Maiden - Episode 2

A rescuer hunting a Mecha Maiden to modify finds Ember Vale—once the school belle—badly damaged and labeled E-rank, slated for scrapping. He revives her and offers repairs, but she has no money. When cash fails, he asks for a Contract Bond instead. Ember balks because her combat aptitude is F-rank and she doubts her worth, but he argues he can remodel her attributes with extreme upgrades, claiming he can raise her to S or even SSS rank. The episode ends with Ember forced to decide whether to bond and undergo radical SSS remodeling.
