vivy flourite eyes song is about an idol robot who does some crazy time travel shit with another robot and then they team up to do some kung fu moves on some losers and save the world. this is basically the love live of robot anime.
ok so what happens in this show is some girl gives her a bear and a robot from the future inhabits it and they have to beat the fuck out of some people because apparently that will alter the timeline and prevent the end of the world. after they beat the fuck out of these people the girl that gave her the bear gets blown up in a fiery plane crash (i look forward to the isekai spinoff coming summer 2022)
after that they just kinda go on a rampage of killing shit and altering the timeline in an attempt to save the world and i'm gonna be honest i remember pretty much none of the plot details from this time outside of some shit on a spaceship with the girl who got blown up's sister and robot sex but the fight scenes were sick as fuck so in the end it doesn't really matter at all.
after they do all this there's this cool episode where she meets up with the scientist who initially sent the other robot back in the past to start the project and then hardcut to the end of the episode where everyone is dead. who could have possibly seen this coming. the scene where the guy runs away from vivy and then gets smashed by a car was pretty funny (i look forward to the second isekai spinoff coming winter 2024)
after that they go and save the scientist and then go to destroy the archive which is controlling all the AIs to kill everyone, however vivy is too much of a coward to go through with it and fails miserably so the scientist dude has to die to give them another shot. this time she finally succeeds and then dies for her efforts. again, who could have possibly seen this coming.
one thing i would've liked to have seen explored more is this show's connection to the canon of joran: the princess of snow and blood which is another show that aired this season. that show takes place approximately 250 years prior to this show, however the main character has an identical blood color to the robot from this show. i was very interested in how joran might have played into the development of AI but unfortunately that did not come up at all.
all in all i don't really remember a lot of the plot or finer details from this show but the fight scenes were super sick so i don't really care too much. it was very satisfying when she kicked that one dude in the head and fucking murdered him in the last episode. honestly i think this show could've been a 10 if they just included more roundhouse kicks i really liked watching those
