We say goodbye to Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song anime after 13 episodes. It is a very solid series from the beginning to the 8th episode and I can say that it offers an enjoyable experience in the last episodes. I was expecting more in the last episodes but it was fine this way too.
We were talking about this anime being an incredibly underrated anime since the spring season started. Most people didn't know much about this anime. I guess this is because the anime is original. Adaptations of manga and light novels are often popularized by word of mouth by their readers. However, for the original anime, this happens after 3-4 episodes are released. He had me incredibly excited with the pre-season trailer. After that, the first 2 episodes were broadcast at the same time and I really found what I was waiting for. It was one of the best works of the season. Already behind the work was a very solid studio like Wit Studio.

To summarize the story briefly, it tells about a 100-year adventure in which the artificial intelligence robot Diva, which was made to make people happy by singing, tried to fulfill her other task. His other duty is to sing with his heart. Let alone the meaning of the word heart for an artificial intelligence, it is a difficult word for humans to understand. Many abstract words are difficult to understand. He then meets a robot, Matsumoto, who says that the Diva has time-traveled back to this year as a result of a disaster in the future. Matsumoto gives Diva his 3rd quest. This task is to prevent the sequence of events that triggered that event in order to prevent future disaster. For the sake of this mission, he has to lose his robots sister. All these losses cause him to split personality. Because it is an extraordinary situation for an artificial intelligence to undertake 2 tasks. Diva, who tries to make her happy with songs, and Vivy, who tries to prevent future disaster, have to be deleted as a result of a virus infected with Diva. The other personality, Vivy, continues to live. After Ophelia has done her duty, Vivy, who has switched to a quiet life, encounters an unexpected result, the disaster in the future repeats. Vivy's 3rd mission fails. Many events happen and disaster happens when the Satellite falls on the planet. Traveling back in time for the second time, this time to the moment when the disaster started, Vivy tries to disable the archive that caused the disaster. Vivy, who has done something with her heart, which is a revolution for artificial intelligence, sings the song she composed with her heart. In this way, disaster is averted, provided that he sacrifices himself.
I'm a little confused about the characters. Because our characters are artificial intelligence robots. It is difficult to write the character development well in this type of anime. But Yappei Nagatsuki, who is also the author of Re:Zero, did a good job on this. Vivy's development feels really good. The same goes for the robot Matsumoto.
Visuality was almost at ceiling level. Our eyes were feasted. We don't even see such quality fight scenes in Shoujo anime. Again, the studio did a great job. The visual design was pretty good. Animations were very good. The character designs are original and fit the theme perfectly.
Music and sound design are also excellent. The anime's soundtrack was the best quality of the spring season. The opening and closing music is striking and beautiful. Especially different version of the opening song in the 6th episode was emotionally striking. The sound effects are very good and on point.
I had a lot of fun throughout the series. Fortunately, it was one of the series that I said I had followed up to date. As I said, many factors that reduce the score are due to the last episodes. The ending is well tied, but could be better.

Characters: 7.5/10
Visuality: 9.5/10
