Here is the synopsis from Edens Zero Vol. 1:

Young Shiki lives on the planet Granbell together with the robots that animate a huge theme park. One day two visitors arrive, the first to set foot on Granbell in nearly a century: Rebecca, a young creator of digital content, and her blue cat Happy. The three immediately get along and become friends ... They still don't know that this meeting will change their destinies!
