The Nier Automata anime only got a very brief teaser when it was announced back in February, but this weekend's Aniplex Online Fest gave us a much better look at the project. It's scheduled to arrive in January 2023, and you can check out the introduction below.

"A helix repeating life and death... we are continually imprisoned within it," 2B says in the teaser. This could be a temporary translation of the Japanese dialogue, as it differs a little bit from the opening line in the video game, but the essence remains.

The footage shows 2B, sword in hand, with her trusty pod companion at her side. Some of the locations and even 2B's actions--such as her dramatic sword swipe--seem to be lifted directly from the game, so we could be looking at a straightforward and accurate anime version.
