Directed by Ryoji Matsuyama, the NieR Automata anime series tells the same story explored in the video game. Taking place in the year 5012, Earth has been aerially invaded by Aliens and their creations, called Machine Lifeforms. With humanity left on the brink of extinction after the invasion, they were forced to flee the planet and take refuge on the moon.
Humans wanted to take their home planet back, and so sent mindless androids to fight on their behalf. With Machine Lifeforms able to multiply indefinitely, however, it left humanity hopeless. Now, with one final chance at taking Earth back as their own, they have dispatched their ultimate weapon: another android called YoRHa. Whether or not they can get the job done, still remains to be seen.
