Previously, I collaborated with the game ``NieR:Automata,'' but after a while, I had the opportunity to be in charge of the ending of the anime ``NieR:Automata Ver1.1a.''

I'm very happy. thank you. I myself am only a fan of the NieR series, but since I was given this role again, I did my best to imagine a song that would be suitable for the ending of NieR: Automata, and I just hope that people will like it. .

I named the song `` antinomy'' because it captures the emotional conflict of what you believe in is turned upside down in an instant, and what you believe is good ends up hurting the other person.

I think we can fulfill our role if we can convey the pain and hatred that androids and mechanical life forms feel, as well as the hesitation that comes from the existence of love, as part of the anime. Nice to meet you.

■Introduction

5012 AD.

Humanity is on the brink of extinction due to aliens who suddenly come to Earth and the mechanical lifeforms they have created.

The few humans who have managed to escape to the moon begin a counter-offensive using Android soldiers to reclaim Earth.

However, the battle reaches a stalemate in the face of the endlessly proliferating machine lifeforms.

Humanity dispatches a new type of android, YoRHa, to Earth as their ultimate weapon.

<2B>, newly dispatched to Earth, joins up with advance investigator <9S> and undertakes a mission, but during the mission, they encounter a number of mysterious phenomena...

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