Yet, another topic dedicated to how Vivy is good and how it was (sadly or not) underestimated.

So, Vivy is my favourite anime. I haven't watched a lot of shows, but Vivy stands out from other anime for me. It's plot, character development, animation and soundtrack are perfect. The first 4 episodes was nice, but I didn't expect the shit that happened in episodes 5 and especially 6. At that point I already gave Vivy 10 out of 10 in my mind. Episodes 7-9 were masterpiece too, but episode 10... Oh episode 10. I don't know maybe I'm the only person in the world to do so, but I literally cried as a child watching episode 10. For me it was like that episode in SpongeBob where Squidward tried to make Spongebob cry and after whole day the dumb of tears was broken. For me it was emotional peak of the show and all that stuff that were before combined with how after such short period of time things got forgotten made me that sad that I can't stop crying until the day ended(I've binge watched Vivy during evening and can't slept normally that night). Episode 11 wasn't the greatest part of Vivy, but episodes 12 and 13 are so good ending to the show.

To sum up, Vivy was only 13 episodes, but for me it was like experience full centuries with our main protagonist. If you read that far, you're true Vivy enjoyer 💪(and thanks for reading my boring story).

So, what's your thoughts on Vivy? Does it deserve more popularity or should it stay in this "hidden gem" status? And what is your personal experience watching it?

Vivy is not underrated. It is ranked fourth in Japan 2021 anime. Here is the link: https://www.anikore.jp/chronicle/2021/

Unlike most people, I don’t really enjoy Vivy. I neither like nor dislike Vivy. Well, it is spreading the message that AI can be a potential threat to humanity. It keeps reminding me of a fiction I have seen before but I don’t remember it. I put it at 5.5/10 for now.

EDIT: I just remembered, it is 86 LN that mentions about the threat of artificial intelligence.

I like Vivy. I'm slightly biased of course because I like anything with android girls in it no matter how shit is *cough*detroitbecomehuman*cough* but I think Vivy was one of the more enjoyable ones.
As to if it should be more popular, I think it's popular enough. The music sold relatively well and it has attracted a small fanbase. Is it enough for them to consider making more? Probably not but I think it's better this way. I was satisfied with the conclusion.

I like it but the ending arc was a bit disappointing and it’s why i gave it an 8/10 instead of higher. 8/10 is still a great score of course, i think its really good, but I do think it had some potential it didn’t quite live up to with the ending being very “safe” and simple I guess.

I was hoping for something a bit more complex or unexpected maybe. It didn’t break new ground or do anything exceptional from a sci-fi storytelling standpoint. That is part of what separates masterpiece futuristic sci-fi shows like Ergo Proxy from Vivy. Vivy is a good show and worth watching, but not a masterpiece imo.

Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song is an underrated masterpiece despite its flaws.

its just not argueable, like literally words cant describe vivy

you cant speak of a scene without spoiling it, and even if youve watched it, its so abstract that you cant talk about it because theres basically nothing to discuss

atleast for me lel

I like Vivy a lot but I also think it has some flaws especially with its ending arc. I found the last part of the show to be a little sup par compared to the rest of the show. I am not saying it was a bad ending. I just think the first 3/4 of Vivy was a 9 or 10/10 while the last 1/4 was an 8/10. Masterpiece not quite IMO highly underrated and under watched definitely!

I really enjoyed Vivy but the only thing that felt a bit off was the character designs. Some of the robots looked oversimplified. Other than that the story was 10/10. Definately a must watch anime

Personally I found Vivy to be very enjoyable while watching, but to be honest it hasn’t really stuck with me.

Like, very solid 8/10, but I don’t think I’ll ever rewatch it

I reckon the show is very good, though the beginning is kinda slow, I very much enjoyed the themes that were both speculative and emotive. What kinda pulls it down is that idk if it's unique enough to be master piece. I feel like it draws a lot from I.robot, terminator, and kinda also violet evergarden. It has a unique touch in the way it's all connected together but it feels like a celebration of the idea than a stand alone idea kinda.

I dropped it at episode 8. It was boring. I didn't care about the story or characters at all.

And it was annoying too... The repeated aggressive and shallow attempts to manipulate my emotions and make me feel sad.

You my friend have solid and good anime taste.

Not only did vivy butcher an emotional approach, it gave off that typical "new anime watchers will love this" vibe, and it's such a disgrace.

ps. the songs that were soppouse to make you "happy" was so overhyped

I wouldn’t call Vivy a “masterpiece” it is definitely a very good anime but it also has its flaws.

I personally see Vivy as an 8/10 or low 9/10 don’t get me wrong I loved this anime but it ain’t perfect in my eyes.

as how much i love my vivy as a character and her song also,
i still dont think vivy is one of those i can call fulyy masterpiece. and the biggest matter of the show is i think simply lacking of duration, it has big potential to be much bigger and more complete story and yet this 13 episode limit made vivy didnt bang as a story as much to be called masterpiece.
still having great time with my stuff
