[@zander2095]

This definitely deserves to become a Webtoon. I’d I’m on pins and needles on seeing how Melody and Melware will it work out. Will they become one? Will one conquer the other? Or destroy each other in a vicious game of paper, rock, scissors?! The fate of the future rests on you, Zen. Oh god. The future is in the hands of Zen.

[@adrianbrown9496]

For some reason, I think the saddest part of the video was seeing Froot sitting out in the wasteland all by herself. Really hit me in the feels.

[@rustkarl]

For me that was second. I just thought that the sad part was that humanity was doomed anyway, the professor and the doctor just wanted their robot daughter to be spared and lied to her so she would leave them. But they constructed the lie in such a way as to both give her a purpose and tell her to find new people to care about.

[@thatmrwolf_359]

For me the saddest part is that her name was misspelled in the credits.

[@animefaza]

​@@rustkarl the saddest thing is that there is no dragon Zen in the new timeline. And it never existed, because other vshojo heard such a name for the first time, judging by the reaction. The dragon lady disappeared into the old reality 3:43... Judging by Froot, she is the only one left at all... But then the question is - where did Geckos come from in the new reality?

Melware had a stream today, and it spurred me on to find this again. I don’t think a vtuber “lore” will ever beat the quality of this. It’s the “Infinity War” of those amazing VShojo videos. I remember this making me so hype! Zen’s new model debut was something else. Before this released, I kept wondering how Mel would even fit in that universe of supernatural beings. Just a goofy pron virus. Bringing Melware into it as the main antagonist was so incredibly brilliant. I miss the sheer amount of those videos that connected with one another. But I’ve learned to appreciate things that happen, not to always feel sad about things going away. I was lucky to be in a few group of people who were in this right place at the right time.

[@TheEndangeredBertVert]

I love the fact that, while Zen is no longer a dragon, the gecko we previously knew and loved has not been abandoned. Now taking a different and important role in the new lore. Makes me hella excited for the possibility of new stuff to be made regarding this story we have been blessed with!

[@Taygon45]

It might be a grandfather pulling himself up on his bootstraps paradox. Zentraya is both of them. The Gecko and the Android. The Gecko saw a cool android named Zentraya with a robotic voice and she used her transformation magic to pick a form that looked and sounded like her. While the Android one never met her and failed . . . to stop Melware from going rogue? Maybe Melware still went rogue and pretended to not for Zen, giving her a false sense of trust so she could kill her. Causing the Dragon Zen to try and avenge her, only to fail too. Causing a perpetual self fulfilling loop . . . which is why there was a Zen in the future in the scrapyard. Because that's where Melware left her. And the Professor and doctor fixed her up. But she had lost her memories. And . . . and . . . _has a nosebleed and falls over_

[@TheEndangeredBertVert]

I have a theory that I put in another comment. It might be a grandfather bootstrap paradox. Zentraya is both of them. The Gecko and the Android. The Gecko saw a cool android named Zentraya with a robotic voice and she used her transformation magic to pick a form that looked and sounded like her. While Android Zen never met Gecko Zen and failed to stop Melware from going rogue. Maybe Melware pretended to not go rogue for Android Zen, giving her a false sense of trust so she could get the jump on her to kill her. Causing the Dragon Zen to try and avenge her, only to fail too, showing Melware the 'crazy dragon lady' that tried to stop her. Causing a perpetual self fulfilling loop which is why there was a Zen in the future in the scrapyard. Because that's where Melware left what was left of her, thinking she was dead. And the professor and doctor fixed her up to a child form from the remains that were left because she had lost her memories. Creating the 'mid point' of the loop. Only . . . what was Android Zen's original creator? Is she a bootstrap paradox? Why was she even half destroyed in a robot paradise?

I wonder who will be next, and if after everyone’s new stories are told will we get something like an Avengers style lore video with everyone that ties it all together? Just some optimistic speculation but it looks like the future is bright for Vshojo!

[@FG_Remastered]

From Commissar to Dragon and now Android. Always cool to see your new themes and models.

[@emikochan13]

greatest thing i've watched all year, so good ^_^

[@SkyPanda52]

Anyone else getting "Vivy" vibes from this lore video? Nevertheless I really enjoyed the whole thing :) Zen is a badass. Vshojo is absolutely killing it!!

[@puncy2JZ]

I do get that feeling while also feeling punishing gray raven vibes too

[@billystark3105]

Forget the lore as an introduction to a new model gives us this as a series, the ending gave me chills

[@Crybaton]

Merry and his team did another fantastic job!

[@Sara-L]

You're absolutely awesome. Last night you actually had to sit still and let everyone tell you that. Keep on rocking! Much love to you, and all of your friends.

I love this! Love the nod to projekt melody as the antagonist

[@xanthiusdrake2775]

Well that was her evil counterpart, wonder what happened to the other part of her.

@@xanthiusdrake2775 Melware probably got rid of her, or she overpowered her and took control of her body.

DOKTORRRRRRRRR! ;-; This video was such a great lore dump regarding the new model. With time travel also being part of Saurei's lore, it can only mean the inevitable. *FINALLY, A WORTHY OPPONENT! THE BATTLE WILL BE LEGENDARY!*

[@Zombiekiller4funs]

this was an insane story and a tear jerker. congratulations on the new you. i look forward to more lore in this story and your continued success on streaming.

Zen has now come full-circle back to anti-lewdness: (1) is sworn enemy and rival to the horniest antagonist in VShojo canon, (2) literally doesn't have feet now.

[@anthonyhero9605]

So my collective assumption is that Zentreya is an Android operated by the miniature dragon version of herself at some point since technically we now know she can be mechanized control from within........ My only question is are we going to get a sequel to this explaining how they become one being? 🤔

[@hardcorecomedy7960]

Zentreya is still zentreya. No one can change that.

[@atomicrenegade7388]

This was absolutely amazing, everyone did such a great job! I love Zens new lore, and I love how we got some lore on Melware too

[@neirakux3]

Gosh, my heart ❤️ this is so amazing. You guys are amazing. It's so good I cry

[@yoman8027]

OK, from what I get from this. The timeline where dragon Zen joins VShojo ends up with Melware conquering humanity. Dragon Zen is probably dead according to Mel's words. There's a chance Android Zen has dragon Zen's soul inside her and she may not know it and doesn't remember her past life. Android Zen goes back in time before dragon Zen joins VShojo. The reason dragon Zen is staring at android Zen is because she can feel that mysterious android shares the same soul with her, so, for the time being, she has opted to stay in the sideline.

[@PaceBreaker]

I think that mechanical dragon is supposed to be based on Vei's other form. Also makes sense since in Veibae's new lore she's one of the guardians of nature.

[@ashwolf2006]

@@PaceBreaker that's definitely Vei.
