On the official site for the anime adaptation of the
video game “ NieR:
Automata ”, it was reported that the broadcast of the
seventh episode of the second part will be delayed . In its place, a
compilation episode will be broadcast on August 16. The statement does
not mention whether the suspension will only be one week , which has
worried fans.
Let us remember that the anime
adaptation of “NieR: Automata” has been plagued with problems since its
premiere in Winter-2023 (January-March) with its first part. There
were supposedly problems arising from the COVID-19 pandemic that forced the
indefinite suspension of the series at the time, although others claim that the
production problems come from the terrible management of Aniplex and A-1
Pictures as a whole.
This anime adaptation is being produced as part of
the celebration of the fifth anniversary of the release of the original video
game. Produced by A-1 Pictures , the first part of twelve
episodes premiered in Winter-2023 (January-March) , being
suspended twice (the second indefinitely) which forced the last four episodes
to be broadcast until July-2023.
NieR: Automata Synopsis
In a post-apocalyptic world invaded by
“mechanical life forms” created by aliens, humanity prepares for its last
battle. Forced to retreat to the Moon in search of safety, humans pin their
hopes on a group of artificial androids known as YoRHa soldiers. Led by the
multi-role battle droid YoRHa 2-gou B-gata “2B,” the group will fight to wrest
control of Earth from its invaders.
As the war against the machines
intensifies, YoRHa slowly begins to see the first fragments of the truth
underlying the brutal conflict. Faced with harsh reality, the unwavering
warrior 2B begins to question her very existence and the extent to which she
must sacrifice herself for the good of humanity.
