Synopsis

Yui is an average schoolgirl who lives in a future where all computers are supported by a single global network known as COMNET. Yui is a computer-illiterate girl who after a computer-lab accident is approached by IR, a raccoon looking corrector computer program, which tells her she must save COMNET. She must stop the rogue A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) computer program known as Grosser and his hench-programs from taking over the world. Grosser was originally designed to be that manager of all of COMNET. At first she's very reluctant to play the heroine because of her complete lack of knowledge and ability with computers. To save COMNET she must find and gain the trust of the other seven wayward corrector programs. They must also find the creator or COMNET Professor Inukai, to help stop Grosser for good.

Initially airing in 1999 to 2000, Corrector Yui has only very recently been fully translated to English, which is why there hasn't been much discussion or reviews for it.

[Theme and tone]
Despite being of the magical girl genre, this series' thematic probably has a lot more in common with something like Mega Man Battle Network and even .Hack//Sign, rather than the typical magical girl anime. Its thematic similarities to .Hack//Sign extend to some of Sign's darker themes as well. Notably, the uploading of one's consciousness to a virtual world (and the potential consequences that could arise from that) is a major theme in both series.

Mixed Feelings
After 3 years watching sporadically and even theming my profile around it, I finally finished this anime.

Corrector Yui is an anime that never really took off stateside with an unfinished dub which is a shame since it has a unique concept with a cyberspace magical girl pretty much acting as an antivirus software...despite said girl being very inept with computers.
It's a very fun anime with enjoyable side characters and humor with its character dynamics that fleshes out both the team of heroes and the team of villains, which is always a plus. Yui, our titular protagonist, has a very cute design and attacks and ...

As of the time of writing this review, the craze in the anime scene is isekai. As of the time of this title's release date, (one of) the craze(s) was the success of massive genre defining titles like Sailor Moon and Cardcaptors -- the mahou shoujo genre.

This anime original is pretty much exactly a cashgrab akin to today's filler isekai titles that get an anime adaptation. The show's episode and plot structure is episodic with little to no continuity between one episode and the next. The show is effectively a computer virus take on the battle-mahou-shoujo with the same ditzy heroine tropes and other ...
