Cast Comments
Chiaki Kano (Commander)
Animation adaptation...I am deeply moved.
I was alone when I recorded the game, so it was very refreshing to be able to exchange dialogue with the cast members.
The storyline is also going to be different from the game.
Whether you have played the game or not, please look forward to it.
I am looking forward to it too!

Keiko Isobe (Operator 6O)
Congratulations on the "NieR: Automata" anime adaptation!
I am so happy to be able to be involved in the work once again as Operator 6O.
When I read the script for the anime for the first time, I was moved once again that "NieR: Automata" would be adapted into an anime! I was moved once again.
The Yoruha unit is forbidden to have emotions, but Operator 6O is a character who does not follow that rule at all, so I will not hide my excitement about the "NieR:Automata" anime adaptation!
I am very much looking forward to seeing the beautiful 2B, which can only be animated!

Mary Hatsumi (Operator 21O)
Congratulations on the "NieR: Automata" anime adaptation!
When I first heard about the anime adaptation, as a fan of the game, I was excited to see how the world view would be expressed in the anime. The other day, some visuals were released and I am really looking forward to it! I'm still a novice, but I'm working hard on the dubbing.
I'm still a novice, but I'm working hard on the dubbing. The other cast members' performances are really wonderful, and everyone on the team is full of love for NieR, so please look forward to it!

Please look forward to it!

<Introduction
The year is 5012 AD.
The human race is in danger of extinction due to the sudden arrival of "aliens" and the "mechanical life forms" they have created.
The few humans who escaped to the moon launched a counter-offensive using "android" soldiers in order to retake the earth.
However, the battle is stalemated by the endless proliferation of "mechanical life forms.
Humanity dispatches a squad of new androids, the "Yoruha," to Earth as a final weapon.
The newly dispatched <2B> joins up with the advance investigator <9S> and goes on a mission, but in the process, they encounter a number of unexplainable phenomena.

This is the story of a lifeless android who continues to fight for humanity.
