Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song, Vivy for short, is a spectacular series. It combines action, smooth animation sequencing, solid character development, a fantastic soundtrack, and a story that could have more holes than Gruyère cheese, but who cares. I don't mind if it's rife with time travel misconceptions and clichés; it is still delightful and quite surprising. I love this series. However, if we overthink the plot, we will lose all the enjoyment of this series, the beauty behind the story, and all the mysteries surrounding Vivy. For example, few ...

Note: As of this review the series has just aired episode 4, so therefore I will just be giving my thoughts and opinions on the anime up to this point 🙂

Firstly, I want to say that this is the first time that I have been drawn to sit down and write a review on an anime I have been watching. I really have loved each new episode that has aired so far. This is due to a numerous amount of reasons that I will try to cover quickly in this review, as I see the great potential that this anime original has to ...

Welcome back to Terminator. In this year’s rendition, we have a blue-haired cyborg idol and a Minecraft cube that travel back in time 100 years to stop an impending A.I. apocalypse. Fasten your seat belts, as we explore why this anime is one of the best original series that has been released in the past decade.

Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song is an anime-original series created by Wit Studios, the same studio that has done the likes of Attack on Titan, The Ancient Magus' Bride, and Great Pretender. Vivy, the first ever autonomous AI, is sent back 100 years into the past to try and prevent certain ...

There are some bitchy people complaining about every little thing because this anime is a MASTERPIECE.
The more good the show is the more people will look for something to complain about.

If you are reading this and deciding whether to watch then don't be lazy and just watch the first episode omg I thought this was going to be boring but this is more than some idol girl anime...

The only problem so far is that we haven't learned about how the AI's affected the terrorists livelihoods and more about the scientist who made the bear and Vivy.

Apparently the creator of Re:zero is also ...

Honestly one, if not the most anime of the season. There is a lot of positives to be said on Vivy, and why you should watch. Which I shall explain within this review.

Story and characters.
Vivy is set in two timelines, as this show is about time travel, and the whole idea of in the future, an event is gonna cause mass human causality, from Ais going rouge. Gives a bit of Terminator vibes honestly, which I actually really dig about it. With Vivy being sent back in time, with the mission of making everyone smile with her song, but also, another is sent through time ...

I don’t like Vivy, Here’s why:

Vivy doesn’t have any interesting themes, it has the “robots rebel against humanity” premise we’ve seen a million times, I’ve asked people if there’s anything thought provoking about the series or if it so much as has anything exceptional about it, evidently not, this is aiming to be a fun action/adventure ride, and that’s okay, but it fails at that by simply just being incredibly boring.

Opening scene:

Ugh, for a start, I could narrate over the first 3 minutes of the first episode and just point out all of the things it does wrong in an attempt to make a good ...

I feel weird walking away from this show with such a positive opinion of it, because if it wasn’t so unbelievably gorgeous, I honestly think I would’ve dropped it very early on.

Maybe this is just me, but even at its most competent and interesting points, I don’t think I ever really bought in to the premise of Vivy at all. Vivy is a show about our cute, autistic, android waifu who goes back in time to stop her fellow androids from genociding the human race, which she can do because she’s Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Terminator and has a talking teddy bear robot sidekick who knows ...

If you are annoyed by faulty logic or plot holes you are gonna be bothered by this anime a lot.

Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song is a story about time traveling ai and an unfulfilled songstress ai going on a quest to save humanity by destroying ai's. While the concept sounds interesting it was also hard enough to implement that studio Wit had to bend logic and story in order to accomplish their idea.

Let's start with the obvious one... time travel doesn't make much sense, but it is to be expected in those kinds of stories, what is worth critiquing is the poor handling of how the ...

What does it mean to sing with your heart?

Time and again, this question echoes throughout VIVY: Fluorite Eye’s Song’s 13-episode runtime. Neither the story nor the setting are particularly unique: whether through movies or retro anime series, we’ve all been familiarized with futuristic settings, the concept of A.I. and the imminent human-A.I. conflict plotline. Yet, I will make the case that what this particular series accomplishes with this toolbox is something of note.

I confess that I came into this show with high expectations. Before I became engrossed in the fantasy genre, sci-fi used to be the type of fiction I was most invested in ...

Warning: update, vauge spoilers and I hate this show. It went from okay to bad with the Ophelia arch ruining any semblance of momentum this show had going for it. Vivy took a solid concept and squandered its potential at every turn.

Vivy is mostly gratuitous violence for the sake of violence, or shock, but due to the over saturation of violence in the show I'd argue the shock leaves after the first three minutes of episode 1. After episode 3 I was tired of it, at episode 13 I actively loathed it. I do not feel anything for characters as they come or go, because ...

The art of the anime original has somewhat died out in recent years with studios instead opting to make a quick buck with popular manga and LN adapdations. These are usually more profitable and less risky since they have an established fanbase. Solid anime originals have become far and few between. Luckily, WIT have delivered one of the best I’ve ever seen with Vivy.

When Vivy was announced, I was cautiously optimistic due to Tappei sensei’s last work, Sigururi. Whilst I personally enjoyed Sigururi, it definitely didn’t live up to the expectations of many considering the staff involved in that project. Vivy on the other ...

THIS IS NOT AN IDOL ANIME.

This is probably the number 1 reason people haven't checked out this show. It is heavily underrated and you should definitely go watch it now. The only reason I found out about this show was because WIT studio was making it.

From the art, music, animation, story, character, everything about it is great. It's almost non-stop action every episode. Music is beautiful and fun to listen to. Characters are very likeable. GOD there's a lot to like about this show. Even if the story is something people have seen a million times where ai's take over the world and wipe ...

I rarely write reviews, but this show was such a waste of time and got so many 10/10s that I feel like I have to chime in, to save some other people from wasting theirs.

First of all, let me say that the art, the voice acting and the soundtrack is good (maybe even very good, depending on your personal preferences), but this does not save this show, except if you literally watch anime merely for visuals and audio. (Which is fine, mind you, but I think most people don't do that)

Now, what is my main issue with this? Story, and characters.

The story is so painfully ...

The actual GOAT. I don't have the proper thoughts, feelings or headspace to truly write a review for this at the moment. So bare with me as you are forced to to hear emotional appeal for an online stranger.

I've had a lot of favorite shows over the years. Spice and Wolf, HxH, Houseki no Kuni and finally Madoka. Madoka sat at the pinnacle for years for me. Where the others I knew to be flawed shows, Madoka I believed might truly deserve a 10/10. I read fanfiction, shared it with countless people and rewatched it with them whenever I could. No where near enough ...

When i first heard about Vivy: FES i was wondering why nobody was talking about it. I mean, everybody said that it was an amazing show. Needless to say, i went into this show with big expectations.

STORY: 3/10

Before i get murdered i feel obliged to say that i do not enjoy "music" anime, like, in general. The most i could watch was K-on, anything more than that and i get bored. "B-But this show is much more than that!!" I hear you say. And i agree that after watching the 1st episode i was saying to myself: "WOW, this ...

Vivy is a testament to how having excellent production values does not result in a good plot. Watching Vivy and expecting a meaningful plot on AI, sentience, and humanity is akin to expecting your calculator to answer "What does it mean to put your heart into something?". The way Vivy handles its themes is in the most shallow Hollywood way with no regards for subtlety or ingenuity. It is as derivative as it gets.

But it's still a fun ride. Don't get me wrong, the plot is still asinine and the characters never stop to think "Hey maybe we should do something about this giant evil ...
