| A pretty disappointing finale overall for me to end a very flawed but very entertaining show despite the meh ending with the predictable sacrifice-revival twists showcased, which feels pretty damn overplayed for years. I'd probably rate it a 6/10. It's definitely messy and not cohesive, which is expected from a Tappei Nagatsuki series, but damn I can't deny the popcorn entertainment factor in its action, animation, earlier twists and music. Even with a meh closure to the series, I still found this anime to be far more enjoyable and just better than Re:Zero, Tappei Nagatsuki's biggest hit. For once his show didn't bore me to tears, so I rate that. Defintely had ambition too, shame his writing style just is a bit too sloppy for my liking. |
| Well that sure was a mediocre ending to an incredibly underwhelming show. Art was mostly fine but I hated those close ups where they would try and make things super detailed. The definitely thought they looked good but god were they ugly most of the time. The story was an absolute mess as a lot of time travel stories are. Everything from episode 3 to episode 10 was absolutely pointless (even if the episodes where she was Diva instead of Vivi were the most entertaining) Jun Fukuyama tried to carry things with a fun performance but it just wasn't enough. 5/10 |
| It was a pretty good show. Not a masterpiece, but very very few shows are worthy of this status and prolly not 9 worthy either but definitely an 8 for me Blows Fumetsu no Anata E out of the water. Still need to check out Odd Taxi |
| Hello, yes. I'm just here to say I'm a complete mess right now. I find it funny how the end of this anime is literally a musical number about how the adventure is more important that the conclusion and yet the conclusion was also quite solid. |
| Oh man what a finale, as always, the episode was great! We got to see Vivy take the second chance in order to prevent the demise of the human race, and she succeeded in doing so, and I absolutely loved hearing the song that she was singing We also got to see Vivy get reincarnated, and it was nice to see Matsumoto and Vivy reunite Overall, I found the anime to be very good from start to finish, I would definitely give it an 8-9/10! |
| finally, Singularity project achieved. and of course, Vivy was recreated  |
| I could have done without that post-ending scene tbh, I like when it's more dramatic. Anyways Vivy was definitely the highlight of the spring season, 8/10. I'd rate it a 9/10 but, I don't know, I feel like it lacks something. |

| Had a good time watching this. Wish they could have explained a little more in the end as to what exactly happened but it is fine. |
| Great ending for a great anime. The last song combined with Vivy's memories was really emotional, I was sad that she had to shut down. I'm glad she got revived in the future but sadly her without her memories, Vivy looks good with short hair but I prefer her with long hair better :D. This anime had an amazing soundtrack and I got to especially give praises to Studio Wit for making this anime look so beautiful. It's been awhile since I've seen such a good anime original. Overall 9/10. |

| Vivy is definitely the best girl of this season. I must say at first I thought it was AI-related re-zero but it was something more incredible. The animation was top-tier class thank you wit-studio please keep up the good work. I think the ending was really really good. And the op was definitely one of the best out there. There won't be a second season I hope there isn't one as the ending is perfect the way it is. There were some flaws but they can be neglected Finally, the anime is definitely a 9/10 I wish to watch more such good anime. |

Only people who care about something say they don't care unwarranted. |
| I feel like they could've delved into the AI vs. humans ethical dilemma a little more, but in a way I liked how the show went in with the assumption that the audience in 2021 is already aware of some of the issues with AI so they skip a lot of the painfully obvious stuff that every piece of media with these themes already cover. I guess it's also more of a story of Vivy's personal journey so the ending wrapped that up pretty well. Overall I feel exactly the same about this show as I did Violet Evergarden (similar vibe imo, for anyone looking for recs), which is that the premise was interesting and there were plenty of good moments but ultimately I almost never resonate with this "female lead who learns what emotions are for the first time" character archetype. I think it's a decent 7/10 show but I understand why some people really enjoyed it more. |
| It was solid but could’ve been better. 7.5/10. Loved the aesthetics. Loved the two main characters. Enjoyed the ideas and themes it was utilizing. The writing was just a bit too sloppy especially near the end. The whole sacrifice/revive trope is rather silly but at least not Dragon Ball levels of tomfoolery. Vivy rocking the short haircut in the post credits scene was really nice, too bad it’s so brief. Thankfully I still find this memorable and iconic due to my experience with the likes of Violet Evergarden, which honestly helped. Now where’s my crossover art of my two ladies?? XD |

This is such an odd thing to say on an episode discussion. |
| Thank you wit studio you did an amazing job. The ending of vivy was perfect, i was happy ro see after the credit scene to see matsumoto alive just vivy lost all her memories.I give a score of 9/10 |

| A very emotional ending to a great show. WIT Studio surprised me last year too with Great Pretender,but they didn't manage to stick the landing there as well as they did with Vivy. I'm expecting great things from Moonrise whenever that comes out. |
''I was dead serious''  |
| Who knew it could be such a good story. Definitely one of the best of 2021 for me. I didn't had any expectations and look at this. Final 8/10 from me |
| Ending is nicely put together, it is good enough but wish there were more details with less rush. Anyway, was a fun ride for a short 1 cour sci-fi story, and was able to get my full attention. 9.0/10.0 |
| Vivy with short hair is just sweet x( Great ending, i hope archive won't go berserk again xD |
  Wandering Witch is the best light novel ever! |
| if the word "convoluted" had to be animated, it would be this Its so much random nonsense stitched together in whatever way the story needs it. But I would be lying if I said I did not like it, the execution was way too good for that. PS: I can see why it appeals to the normies but the top 100 ranking is still ridiculous |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Eh, okay ending. Didn't really care for anything that was going on cause everything that happened was too "safe." It was predictable Vivy was going to sacrifice herself and end up being "reborn" again in the end anyways since she's an AI. And we have Matsumoto doing his thing with his plot-convenient, weird cube powers again. I really loved this show up until episode 5 (it was my AOTS up until that point), then it started going downhill like most original anime do. The writing is messy, but it's not surprising considering it dealt with time-travel aspects and focused on depicting certain "major" events that spanned over 100 years. Not like as if changing those events mattered anyways, but I guess it's mainly for Vivy's character development and memories. That said, at least the songs were nice and the fighting choreographies were great. Overall, not a very memorable show but somewhat entertaining nevertheless. 6.5/10 for me. |
  "As promised, all that you seek, all that we desire, is prepared up there. On top of the Tower." |
| A pretty meh ending to an overall really enjoyable series. Ripped off both Nier Automata and Steins;Gate and still managed to get a mid ending. It's like a 6-7/10. |
 |
| Unfortunately this had the same problem as Great Pretender where the last few episodes basically threw away most of the good build up the series had going for it right down the gutter. And the even repeated the same mistake of throwing in a post credits scene that completely ruins a character's fate and development. It basically felt like everything the series was building up didn't matter and that really disappointed me. The show's still a 7/10 for the entire thing but dang, the last few episodes really hurt it in the long run. |
 |
| Very good ending to the series. I am satisfied 11/10 overall. |
 |
| I'm glad that Vivy was finally able to accomplish her missions and was rewarded with a good and happy ending. I will dearly miss Vivy, Diva and Matsumoto. |
| I'm just glad the ending was solid, considering it's an original and originals aren't exactly known for having solid endings. One of my favs this season for sure. |
| Do AI's have real hair? :? Me pondering to avoid the feels. Enjoyed the show a lot although the final episode...feels a bit slow. And confusing. So the world has been saved it seems? atleast for another 100 years before the Archive reloads??? Atlas012 said: HyperdriveYT said: Minority here- I found it started off strong, but just got weaker as it went on. Found last episode to be predictable and cliche. I thought let me guess... she shuts down at the end.. and wakes up with no memory trope. Ah not disappointed rofl. Decent show 7/10. Ok look, i'm not going to try and argue here, but it's obvious. cause you know she an Android. You can always remake them. I honestly thought they were going to give her her memory and everything, you know, extracting the memo from the destroyed AI and putting it in a new one. The only other scenario I could imagine is like destruction of world as we know it, so nobody would be able to reconstruct her. So it just makes sense to me ending it like this. It was a little disappointing that she never got her memory back, but to be fair we built up to the point explaining that even with memories or preloaded parameters you can't really clone or recreate a personality--not without experiencing it yourself.That said, even if the trope got weaker, I think it was executed so well it was worth it. |
| Hm... for some reason i didn´t enjoy much how these last episodes (second half of the anime onward) turned out to be. Putting aside the very nice art and animation and not having your usual male main character, nothing really caught my attention in Vivy >.< Oh well, too bad for me. |

| My 145th completed series chronologically. For the record, I extended it a 6/10 rating. |
| Did I miss something? Wasn't she suppoused to stop the AI with her song? Because at the end the did the same infiltration as last time but with the info that Vivy told them... so basically, they did the same but succededed and vivy song did nothing (it was a cool song tho). I don't get it, it's like watching episode 11 and 12 on turbo with soundtrack and a happy ending (well, kinda, I mean a lot of people died lol). I lowered my 9 to an 8 because of this ep... kinda sad, but still better than most endings. Fell free to speak if you think I missed something. |
