Great ending to a great show, anime originals still has a future. That was a perfectly satisfying ending, though I personally think it could have been better, I felt that the final arc wasn't as good as the other arcs, still definitely great though.

That ending went by so fast, wished it could have been a little bit longer, it ended abruptly just like how Vivy's singing ended abruptly. There was a part of me that was blueballed, but also a part of me that thinks that was brilliant how she just got cut off. Didn't expect Navi to come into play at the last second, but Vivy and Navi suddenly reminded me of Ophelia and Antonio.

Goodbye Vivy and Happy Birthday, 9/10

Also, short haired Vivy looks fucking amazing.

It was a simple plot of going to the past to save the future and with the way the story was set up, I was expecting it to have that kind of ending. Though we've already seen stories with a similar premise, this one was executed masterfully. I didn't hate any part of this show. I was always looking forward to watch this every week and it did not disappoint. Overall a simple sci-fi show with a high-end studio backing it up, which created a magnificent anime this season. 8.5/10.

Great song by the way. The part where the vocals were overlapping with each other and how the song was abruptly disturbed leading to Vivy's shutdown gave me chills.

because Vivy went to Toak right away, more of them survived and able to help in the final battle.

now armed with proper information... the terrorists go to disable the power plant, while Matsumoto alone goes to inject the program to disable server.

since Toak has so many more men this time, and they even have their ai Jamming device... they are able to put up a much better fight against the rampaging robots.

Matsumoto vs. a fleet of red cubes. They outnumber him, but Matsumoto has it pre-planned with each cube of himself destroying one ship.

Vivy song is really emotional, I can feel it. Archive final Satellite Bomb attack to try to stop Vivy, was stopped by Matsumoto sacrifice himself to explode with the satellite.

Momoka finally see Vivy perform.

7.5/10 -- I absolutely hated the Ophelia arc, and planned not to buy anything from this show. But Vivy final song change my mind. Going to buy at least a cd when budget allows.

Awful, of course all she had to do was sing a song 9_9 with no explanation as to why...also even if Matsumoto hit it the shock wave of that falling satellite would still destroy the city. This whole series was a jumbled mess as inconsistent as the animation. Can't believe it's so popular.
Also her song was awful, really a sing about combat? 9_9

still confused abt some things, so vivy shut down every ai? including herself, and elizabeth didnt get shut down because she's not updated stuff like that? either way that was a great ending. we finally got the full version of the song, it was lovely. (does anyone know what its called btw? maybe drop a link)

there'd be some stuff id want them to do better/fix but this has been really good, especially for an anime original holy shit. definitely gonna miss it, good work to everyone that worked on this

So I finally watched the episode , good nonetheless although for some reason I was quite underwhelmed by seeing how this series ended , it feels too simple for Vivy to win against Archive anyway overrall this series was great I really enjoyed especially ep 6 which was a masterpiece episode in my eyes along side ep 4 and 9 and this one was really great in terms of animation.

I will give it a solid 8.69/10 , Thank you Studio Wit and all the other staff for creating this wonderful passion project and at last Thank you Vivy , I will really miss you .

Only thing that I think I would've enjoyed more was if Matsumoto's cube body's remains from the crash against the satellite aiming for Vivy's stage ended up next to Vivy's body in a final scene shot, but otherwise I really enjoyed the ride.

Absolutely stunning from start to finish of an episode. Vivy's final song did not disappoint, the passion and tenderness of her voice were palpable in the air as every emotion flowed out of her from within the deep recesses of her memories while the world seemed to devolve into chaos.

It's a pleasure to be a part of your audience. Farewell Vivy!

A gorgeous display of all the things Vivy experienced over 100 years which led her to understand what 'heart' means to a being that doesn't possess emotions in the traditional sense. It was beautiful to see there was not a single moment or person that she met that didn't affect her journey in some way and how much she changed Matsumoto from logical and unemotional to being able to make decisions based on how it would affect others around him, not just how it would impact his mission.

My only criticism would be that despite how difficult the mission had been presented through the anime, but especially in the last few eps it was extremely easy for Vivy and co to take down The Archive this time around. Obviously, they had some advantage in knowing what was coming but not enough of one for it to go so smoothly.

I definitely don't want to take credit away from the fact that this has been the best original anime in a long time, I have not watched them all but if I had to put it on a time scale, I would say the last one was Zankyou no Terror, thought "Terror" definitely had a more impactful, memorable, ending to me, than Vivy.

ALSO, I m not considering Violet Evergardeen is an original since it was based on an LN at the end of the day.
My biggest complaint towards this show would be that I was the most emotionally invested during the sister's mini-arcs, at their respective climaxes than these final episodes (even though the beginning of episode 11 was quite memorable itself).

Not that I did not enjoy Vivy character, but it is how I feel about it, again, credit has to be given to this ending, it did NOT suck, and the music was definitely very enjoyable (when you think about it a bit predictable the subtitle would be the song's name, but no problem with me).

I think the narrative this anime was going for raised quite a lot of flags, being a topic already explored plenty that some can be tired of, but for sure Vivy managed to dodge any troublesome bullets ahead its way.

The music was really great for the most part, being Wit Studio also plenty of well-executed scenes and great action when it was needed.

My opinions are of course very biased, but if I had to add to it, I have this certain wish that we could see an alternative reality or another ending to all those sisters, putting Vivy back in time only a few hours managed to dodge that cliche, but I think it would have putten a bigger smile on my face if I could see Estella, Grace, and Ophelia getting a better resolution!

Outside that, I m still not a fan of the ending of episode 2, but minor complaints apart, this show managed to surprise, keeping it very engaging, the audience invested, a very cohesive journey that ended in an ending that managed to be satisfying at least, props for that for an original all the more.
And let me say, I don't mind if Wit Studios dropped out of AoT, for reasons already made public, so they could pursue ventures such as this, create and deliver new and engaging original storytelling in the anime medium is something I m all for.

8.9/10 = 9

(this anime and 86 generated quite some rivalry, that I mostly avoided, cuz wasting my time too much on these forums is dumb, BUT, knowing the source material of 86, if they did vol1 justice, I could see myself enjoying 86 even more... Vivy was great itself and was very needed to the medium IMO, thank you Wit Studios!)

I will indulge you for a bit, my interpretation is that Vivy discovering creativity, something though only for humans showed Archive that maybe there could be a different path and that both AI and humanity could both evolve together, learn with each other, I mean, Vivy creating that song was a culmination of many years of living among humans and earning to know what putting her heart into something was, feelings you could relate to those of a human being.

Really, when it comes to it, don't try to think too much being this, it is what makes sense for me at least, could be something else, but I don't really have a wish to go extra thinking and reflecting about it, since there are other priorities in life, and an anime needs to EXCELL in making me interesting questions and relate to deep topics, so I can give a real fuck about it.
Vivy didn't fully succeed but neither failed.

Oh my God, pain.
The only thing that didn't sit well with me about this ending was how sad Vivy looked when she shut off. If she had even a half-smile or a satisfied look I'd be happy already, but they made her look dejected.
I was hoping for an epilogue to ease my mind, but I guess this is it. Fuck...

The answer she found to her question was the memories she made along the way... and she used them all in this last song in the main stage to save humanity, absolutely amazing.

Big props to the Toak dude who sacrificed himself to save Elizabeth, you're a real one.

That was definitely the most invested I have been into an anime as it aired, incredible series with a top main duo, great, very hooking story that kept me impatiently waiting for next episode, and an oustanding soundtrack full of the songs that won't be leaving my playlist anytime soon.

Have my 10/10 dear Vivy and everyone involved in this project, what a masterful performance.

Its now episode 13 and its really good! and its the last episode as well.. i knew from the start that it would become a tragedy, where she will sacrifice her own memories and all of herself to save the world and the future, but it was the only way.. since the only way to stop archive from ever achieving its objective was for her to actually sing her original song, which meant that AI can have a soul.. i was also right, and i share the same vision as vivy.. that to sing with all ur heart, is to sing with all ur memories.. psychologically, the heart means all ur memories, not the biological heart of ours.. and thus, vivy chose to trust the future.. not for herself nor its her mission to do so, but to show to archive that the past is what makes us who we are, bo matter what it may be.. where she chose to sing with all her heart.. but the aftermath of the event must be really hard for the survivors.. the loss of loved ones, the massacre of people, and more.. which i think that it will then come to pass, that a central system or AI must never be placed.. and AI must run individually.. they may share info, but only thru manual connection.. and as the fight for mankinds survival has come to an end, maybe after some time, vivy wakes up again in the future.. only to execute her mission from now on, which is to sing with all her heart.. even tho she has lost all her memories during the event.. well, after researching about the 3 laws of robotics, archives mission would be like breaking the 2nd law.. and thinking about it, both archive and vivy isnt wrong about what theyre doing, since its in the mission.. anyways, i rate the anime a 10 of 10, 10 for both story and art.. :)

I thought it was a pretty good way to conclude this fantastic series. My personal favorite part of the series was episode 6 but regardless of what my personal peaks are, I can't complain too much about this since it's very easy for an anime original to completely fumble it's ending. Vivy's new hair style looks pretty nice lol.

I doubted there was any good way to end this, and boy, did they not succeed on literally any front. Vivy sings her song, averting the ultra apocalypse, leaving only the more anodyne regular apocalypse, and everybody lives happily ever after. That's right. After a massive terrorist attack perpetuated by the underclass, slaughtering millions and coming within inches of precipitating a global extinction event, everybody just decided "Eh, who among us? Let bygones be bygones." Sure, that one dude kicked a robot corpse, but that was just in the heat of the moment, because we jump to the future where Vivy sees that everything turned out fine because she re-re-re-re-re got her groove back for the fourth or fifth time by thinking about those happy times in her life, like when she helped a murder victim reconcile with her corpse stealing stalker killer, or mercy killed an enslaved mentally handicapped midwife. Such societal commentary. Very emotional. Yada yada. Etc etc. Wait, did we just murder literally the entire lower class and call it a happy ending? Oh, well, okay then.

Yeeeeeah. I don't know what more there is to say here. At best, it's a sappy and impossibly saccharine commercial for a generic JPop single. At worst, it's yet another blind spot the show has for how its social commentary makes no sense and misses the big picture in not noticing that it is committing atrocities and then ignoring them. The potential of early episodes went severely unrealized and basically none of the writing made any sense, let alone was consistent from episode to episode. All the time travel stuff went somehow both underused and the rules for it changed every time it came up, and on the character front Vivy spent most episodes sitting in the corner, waiting to be told what to do. Looking back, it's particularly egregious as the first arc ended by fridging a child for no good reason, to appease time rules they didn't follow and then changed later anyway.

This is my overall spoiler free review of Vivy:
Hatsune Miku × Terminator. Vivy had quite the grand start, not so smooth progression and an anticlimactic ending.
The story and plot was generic for a Sci-fi show. The world building wasn't explored properly for a show featuring AI. Every plot armour was handled quite cleverly by the existence of the character "Matsumoto" which is a good thing. As it didn't have any grand story or enough detailing it didn't invite any major plot holes either. The direction was ok. There wasn't much to do with it given the story. The character interactions were pretty fun at first then with time it became dull and little repetitive too. Vivy's character progression left many questions than answers. The animation+visuals and soundtrack was great.
Now let's explore Vivy genre wise.
● Action: Vivy had multiple amazingly choreographed fights. But the overall lack of good amount of significant fights and physically formed antagonist along with anticlimactic fightless ending makes it a failure as an action anime.
● Thriller: Again featured some thrilling fights but after halfway it became predictable and lacked a properly built or well written plot twist which is necessary for a successful thriller show. So failure as a thriller.
● Sci-fi: Not enough information detailing and avoiding to explore those things make it a failure as a great Sci-fi. But it's definitely a moderate one.
● Music: It's an irony that one of the major point of the show was music which contributed Vivy's questionable character growth but never was explored properly unlike many other show from the same genre. So failure as a music show.
Now, failing in individual genre doesn't necessarily make a show failure as a combo of those if it's properly executed with great story. However Vivy couldn't quite live up to that expectations either. With significant jumps in plot points it was simply rushed. The execution could've been better if they did a show with same themes with the span of 24episodes. I know the industry has it's limitations but that doesn't justify calling a normal show great in the name of "great execution within such episode range and limitations"
I started the show with mindset of giving it 8+
However, by the end it's overrated but enjoyable enough to get atmost 7/10 from me. It was in between good and average.

A rushed and somewhat mediocre ending, but it gets better if you rewatch the first episode.

It could have been way better with 24 episodes.

Ep. 1 - 6: 8/10
Ep. 7 - 13: 5/10
Overall 6.5/10

First, whole AI vs. Humanity plot is kinda superficial and left unresolved. I mean what kind of incompatibility required humanity wipe-out and what really changed after 'sing-ularity' project finale.

Second, if song is the pinnacle of the show then it can't be just 'great'. You need something extraordinary so I've expected much more. Something on par with top songs.
E.g. "Avid" from 86ep9 finale moved me much more then "Fluorite Eye's Song".

I find the finale completely and utterly disappointing. The whole show had some misses but I found episode 4 and episode 6 to be masterfully crafted, and was really hoping that the finale would follow suit. Unfortunately, in trying to untangle the plotline and reach a neat conclusion, the last few episodes felt rushed, including the episode 9 plot twist. The Ophelia arc characters are completely illogical, and episode 11,12 and 13 were so weak. The reasoning behind archive made no sense, the new side characters were by far the worst and weakest in the series, the time travel redo save was so predictable and poorly executed. Where before the show created meaning even through the madness, the last 3 episodes just feel like "all style no substance". The dialogue is stiff, vivy's humanization feels forced, and the episodes just feel so rushed. I'm truly disappointed. What could have been AOTY was completely blown in just a few episodes. This ending made me lose so much hope for ONAs.

Well, that was easier than I thought. Was Vivy restricted to travelling back to between the massacre against humans started and the dropping of satellites? Couldn't she go back to before the massacre?

Good final episode, good series. I'm just a bit frustrated that they brought Vivy & Matsumoto back at the end, makes it feel like the emotion leading to the sacrifice was just thrown out the window. So many shows do this. I get that more people want a happy ending but from a critical point of view i really think the ending would've been way better if it just ended right after Vivy "died" and the music cut. It would've been a bittersweet ending but at least it doesn't throw out anything prior. Overall i'd rate the show a 8.5/10 but since that's not allowed it's a 9/10.

If you listen closely to the AI spamming the song during episode 9/10 you will notice that that hymn was used for the song flourite eyes
The difference was when the AI sang them, it sound horrendous and like a horror hymn
It seems like vivy(Diva) was the one and only being who could sing the song tune correctly (and it sounds good too)

Some would say that the last part when Vivy sang for the last episode was less grand as the final performance than it should be. but during the riot of the robot , one could not even think about preparing a grand theater or a majestic stage just to perform it. so for me it felt more realistic. To made it dramatic, Vivy sang the song with the hologram of her 100 years journey seeing all of her memories..for me it was heart wrenching..

I know that this anime was kinda unheard during the earliest period..with it being an idol AI theme and even with the first episode of human massacre..was not enough to gain cult followers..yet

As it went on, Diva started to pick up the fight, she deviate from her original mission and creating another persona; Vivy. She installed martial arts program and performed all those acrobatics kungfu juggle, blasting through various robots and obstacles just to save human.. she sacrificed her peace and tranquil live just to see a better future.
I think it grew a lot in the audiences..seeing the peak of episode 6 with her trying to do the right thing but it lead to more demise...broken her emotion.. She even lost her original persona (Diva)due to virus ..

Vivy was an android yet..she developed her emotion and become one of the singularity point being..her programming had evolve through all of her 100 years journey..yet despite all of her bad experiences、she still didn't forget about her main mission that is to see human smile. She would rather become a martyr and lose everything rather than to reign over her creator

I love this anime and I never regret ever trying to randomly pick titles this season. I know the ending's solution might not be for everyone but with everything that have been done, Vivy's last effort was the only option that's best for humanity.

A rushed and somewhat mediocre ending, but it gets better if you rewatch the first episode.

It could have been way better with 24 episodes.

Ep. 1 - 6: 8/10
Ep. 7 - 13: 5/10
Overall 6.5/10



As much as i love vivy, i agree. this show could have been way better with 24 episodes but with this amount of quality on animation on every episodes, i think the animators are going to have a bad time while making this lol.
It took me 30 mins just to find a forum avatar lmao.

Mixed feelings over this conclusion honestly but I'm glad that Vivy and Matsumoto managed to make the operation a success at long last. Third time's the real charm, as they say.

Sad to see the Doctor pass away in the process though but mad respect to him for allowing an opportunity the bleak future to change for good. "There's nobody who knows your face better than me." - Well, isn't that sweet? He never got to hear her singing live, and that's very saddening.

Navi's little outburst was quite touching. From just a regular songstress to the savior of the human world, that's a serious jump and the reaction is fully understandable. Although, I suppose it was more to do with their fates rather than the turnout of events that got him/her riled up.

Wit Studio didn't hold back to the very end and that's just fantastic. Elizabeth taking down some of the AIs were quality material. Matsumoto v the cluster was really cool too.

Vivy didn't even get to finish her song, how cruel it is. That abrupt end to the song surprised me a little too. "Thanks for your attention" - Boy, that stung. But well, it's good to see that she's back in a different form in the distant future though. Props to humans for trusting AIs again, I'm sure they didn't create a common network like that now however, lol. Seeing a glimpse of the active Diva with Matsumoto was a nice little addition too.

All in all, it's been a very entertaining watch! First 7-8 episodes were the peak for me and the last few a bit of a disappointment, if I'm to be brutally honest. I see where the AIs were going with their plan of new human race taking over the "flawed version" and whatnot but the whole thing played out a little weird. Also, the fact that a part of the shutdown lied in Vivy's vocal chords while singing felt a little .. y'know, convenient and a little cheesy. It is her mission to sing which I fully understand since it's one of the fundaments of the story but I still can't shrug it off. Also, the time travel aspect certainly made things interesting but it got sketchy along the way xD.

On the positives front, there are a lot more to appreciate! I've to bring it up again but Wit Studio. Thank you so much! Soundtrack, art, animation - they nailed it all. Storywise, credits to Nagatsuki-sensei. We got our usual fill of despair lol but it was really an intriguing story from start to almost the very end. A little predictable in the end, only. VAs, particularly Vivy's and Matsumoto's, did a fantastic job as well! I hardly ever have complaints on this xD but it still stood out to me for good, and that's saying a lot. As for the songs, they were good as well, definitely going to tune to Ophelia's track a few times now.

Going to settle with a 8/10 here. Not quite sure if I should shelve it in the generous or the solid category. Looks like we'll be getting a Special episode this weekend. Not particular ecstatic for that lol but I'll definitely give it a watch.
