The soundtracks, though... even just the background music for certain scenes is stellar. Can’t wait for the next ep. Literally everything about this anime has been beautiful so far. I hope it gets much more attention and that the future eps keep being of such amazing quality as of now. Really liking Vivy’s character, and the artwork is simply stunning. Ah I should control my high expectations >.<

good episode lol homie really just went to sleep for 15 years till the next major event i guess that's one way of not fucking with things but we can already see our Diva is having a effect on events going forward if ever so slightly different


straight up a Colony Drop huh i'm so confused on Estella's motives she had me fooled i didn't want to believe she'd actually do it because we were told from the start it was her was expecting a bait and switch but they still managed to end of a cliffhanger i really dont want to have to deal major turning points at the end each week!

But is Estelle really the culprit behind the future incident?
First Matsumoto told Vivy that Estelle was without a doubt the responsible for the hotel drop, but then Vivy herself confirmed that an her younger sister couldn't have voluntarily caused such a tragedy, it's something that goes against her ''AI's heart'', and finally at the end of the episode we witness Estelle doing the unthinkable to her robotic sister.
It all smell fishy.

This episode was so good. At the end when the expression on Estellas face change while she was looking outside the window a felt really unexpected chills and still do not know why.

The quality of the animation usually does not impress me that much but here it just works to portray it as an awesome sci-fi, which just seems to need the visuals, because when the story is about high-tech it is hard to suspend your disbelief when the animation is not high-tech as well. This problem is not present here.

Plot is starting to pick up and I feel Tappeis mystery talent at work here.

I guess nothing significant happened for 15 years if Matsumoto said peace out for that long lol. That timeskip occurred so casually too, but it makes sense since they need to cover 100 years.

Holy shit Estella at the end....I knew she was shady but I wasn't expecting that.

The OP song sung by Vivy was sweet. 15 years has already passed without Vivy making her next move but the time for that has finally come with Matsumoto's return.

I like the new development. This they gotta stop the next big AI related event which is to stop the space resort Sunrise from crashing into earth by the owner who is a next gen of Vivy's model, Estella. She seemed like a nice girl so that last scene was shocking. Wonder why is she gonna do this.

Also damn Momoka's little sister meets Vivy, I teared up at that scene. The song sung by Estella was beautiful.

Matsumoto is even more sus now. Even more liberal law towards AI passed as a result of his actions. He also is going to prevent spaceship catastophe now, which would prevent society from having rising concerns about AI further development and safety.

I feel like his real goal is singularity and AI take over. Matsumoto is basically Skynet in disguise.

Really great episode! Didn't expect the 15 year time skip at all, but it makes sense since this is a 100 year journey after all. And Vivy is an android so time probably means nothing to them. I really like the OP, if that even was the OP. I am guessing they're doing what Mushoku Tensei was doing with it's OP.

Vivy looking beautiful as always. A space hotel actually seems pretty dope, but I doubt we'll get something like that in our lifetime. After that talk with Estella, my opinion is the same as Vivy, she doesn't seem like the type to just drop the hotel. Until that ending scene, what the hell happened to her, unless she was just acting when she was talking to Vivy. Also I am sure Momoka's little sister will play a part in all of this. Damn, really looking forward to the next episode.

This episode made me anxious as hell lmao.

To me it seems like Leclerc had a hand in this and more. As in the owners death was on her. Estella was influenced by her encounter with Vivy, but to what degree? Does she still wants to pull through with the plan or did killing Leclerc was an act of going against it? Or was she never part of the plan? Can't wait for the next episode.

Little sister making an appearance came unexpeted too. Then there's Matsumoto I don't want to trust. Daganronpa is part of it. Madoka Magica as well xD

Story plot 1/10 - Too many flaws after watching up to episode 3

The Super AI bear able to execute his mission without caring scarification of others, yet he choose to let Vivy to decide whether she want or not.

The Super AI bear in this episode said that he can forcefully format the Estella robot meaning he has the ability to do so but still choose to let Vivy to decide whether she want or not.

So why not the Super AI itself went around to 'format' everything by himself, there is no need to rely in Vivy at all which might cause his mission to save the future fail.

Also, if Super AI is so powerful why don't it just possess old AI version like Vivy and take full control of it and execute his mission? This is just stupid, the scientist in the future is stupid.

You see in the episode 2 the future AI had to use a cable directly connecting to Vivy to install just combat skills and that already took quite long enough time for Vivy to reject it. So in this case he does have the ability to reformat Estella but he needs Vivy to restrain Estella because he doesnt have a capable body atm. Without her cooperation he might get exposed. Also, from what i see he can only take control of simple machines like that electric teddy bear or the excavator.

Why do you need to related with an AI ? I don't get it, she is not suffering why you need empathy? she is the one saving people.

Yeah because it's not obvious that Matsumoto is hiding things.

And he can only change certain events otherwise he will change the future completely, that is most likely the reason why Vivy nees to do it, because she is most likely has to become an influence for some people, it's not that hard.

It's obviously they need Vivy for a reason that has not been revealed.

Matsumoto is really sus, ngl.
Saving that politicised ended up working for AIs favour and now preventing space station from crashing will work out for their favour as well.
How is this supposed to prevent Rise of the Machines? Matsumoto already has proven in 2nd episodes, that he is only fixated on the result and end justifies the means, so I think he is literally Skynet.

Space station incidents with AI is not new but has always been interesting. Still not known the real motive behind Estella decides to do this after expressed how much she loves being there. And the way she tore Leclerc really came as a surprise, is scary when AI self-learning to a point of psychopathy development, the way I see it, she is not faulty going out of her programming box, but have to see the reason on next episode.

Matsumoto is installed on Vivy's low level firmware so not even programs can remove it, possibly harcoded and executes from there. It may have restricted bandwidth access to go beyond which is never told on technical level that probably no viewers will be interested. Safe to say there are fail-safes built into Matsumoto to prevent it do what it wants, is likely the Singularity project was never completed or tested for the safety, so designed to take command from Vivy's rational and assist when see fits, also to prevent Vivy to alter the unnecessary timeline. In 3 episodes you can tell both had different features, pros and cons. The only thing I can't figure out is by what technology can they send Singularity to target on Vivy's circuit and into the past, well, is sci-fi afterall so use bit of imagination creativity sometimes.
