What is this?
In the distant future, 5012. The sudden aerial invasion of Earth by Aliens and their creations, Machine Lifeforms, led mankind to the brink of extinction. The surviving number of humans took refuge on the moon to organize a counterattack using android soldiers to recapture Earth. However, the war reaches a stalemate as the Machine Lifeforms multiply infinitely. In turn, humanity deploys a new unit of android soldiers as an ultimate weapon: YoRHa. Newly dispatched to Earth 2B joins 9S, the analyst currently stationed there, where they encounter a myriad of mysterious phenomena amid their mission.
NieR:Automata Ver 1.1a is based on the popular NieR:Automata video game by Platinum Games and freelance developer Yokō Tarō and published by Square Enix. The anime series streams on Crunchyroll on Saturdays.
