Anime Description: Rozen Maiden
Rozen Maiden is based off of a manga of the same name.
In this anime, a high school student named Jun Sakurada has a problem. He refuses to go to school because of the high pressure placed on him, and has a hobby of ordering things from the net and returning them back.
One day, he receives a letter that tells him he has won a prize, and asks him to 'Wind' or 'Unwind'. He sends back a positive answer, and receives a doll in return. He then winds it up, and the doll introduces itself. "My name is Shinku. From now on you will be my servant."
And that is where it begins.
Jun Sakurada becomes a "medium" for Shinku who has to collect Rosa Mysticas to end the Alice game. His life changes as his life is being influenced by her and the other dolls.

I believe the US company situation here is similar to that of Black Lagoon. Indeed, you probably need to extend this over to Ergo Proxy as well.
