A synopsis of the series from the official site can be found below.
“Nierland, is an AI complex theme park where dreams, hopes and science are mixed together.
Vivi, the first autonomous humanoid AI ever created, works as an AI cast member of the facility and continues to stand on stage every day to sing. However, her popularity is nowhere near what it should be.
–Vivi’s mission is to make everyone happy by singing.
In order to fulfill her mission, Vivi continues to sing with the goal of one day singing her heart out and standing on the main stage in the park.One day, an AI who calls himself Matsumoto appears to Vivi.
He tells Vivi that he is an AI from 100 years in the future, and that his mission is to “work with Vivi to correct history and stop the war between AI and humans that will occur 100 years from now.
What kind of future will the encounter between two AIs with different missions redraw?
This is a story of ‘I’ (Vivi) destroying ‘I’ (AI).
The hundred-year journey of Vivi, the AI “Diva”, begins.”
Translation: DeepL (Adjusted)
Author’s Note: The translation uses “Watashi” (私) in the phrase “I destroying I” but uses the furigana to designate the subjects as Vivi and AI.
