Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song

From the makers of Re:Zero,
Vivy -Fluorite Eye's Song- is a masterpiece!

The graphics are excellent and the animation is very fluid, and my god these musics are so gripping and you can feel all the emotion of Vivy when she starts to sing.

I have already added them to my playlist and I had the same love at first sight for the music as when I saw for the first time the anime Guilty Crown and I could listen to the songs of the group Egoist.

The story and the narration are very well written, the themes are very mature and go straight to the point while remaining logical and in harmony with the world that is counted to us.

The development of the relationship between Vivy and Matsumoto is very pleasant to follow, we can see that it was written by the creator of Re:Zero.

I am still quite dubious about the last episode, I have the impression that it was a little rushed.

But overall I really enjoyed following this series.

For those who have seen the movie "I, robot" with Will Smith (yes it's an old movie) or the excellent movie "Chappie" you will not be disoriented.

I highly recommend this anime to anyone who enjoys AI, time travel and Cyberpunk themes (AiPunk to be more precise).

This is one of the best anime(s) of Spring 2021. Animation, Story, Music, Plot, Characters everything was top-notch. There wasn't a single thing that was disappointing for me.
I was hoping for more than one season but it definitely won't be happening anymore since they did gave a proper closure to the entire concept.
I'll definitely recommend this to everyone, even if you're not into "Mecha" themed anime(s). It'll be worth your time.

As others have pointed out, this one has to be commended for the presentation as well as some fantastic tunes. When it comes to the story however it doesn't really go very deep as the world building is lacking and Matsumoto is kinda annoying and the secret "hero" here. Still, some of the episodic entries were quite good so I'll give it to them.

Vivy is notably one of the best looking anime for some time. The action sequences are awe inspiring with Wit Studio really flexing their muscle here, especially with this being from their B Team. That said, Vivy sets out lofty goals with being an AI based storyline, asking many of the difficult questions that come with such a premise. What is purpose? What makes something human/sentient? Where do the barriers between hardcoded programming and freewill blur? While some of these deep topics are handled well, the final note of the anime feels squandered and lost in a sea of empty hypothetical questions and an all too easy finale. I also think some of this lost meaning and impact is down to Funimations sometimes laughably bad translation effort, which makes some of the exchanges between characters completely incomprehensible during key scenes.
Overall, Vivy is still a joy to watch, even if the main emotional message is lost in the weeds. Definitely worth your time if you're a fan of Nier Automata, Ghost in the Shell etc.
