The anime series A.I.C.O. -Incarnation- was released on the streaming platform Netflix, marking the global debut of the show.
The anime A.I.C.O. -Incarnation- was officially announced, detailing its production by studio Bones and its plot centered on artificial intelligence and biotechnology.
A catastrophic event known as the Burst occurs at the Crest Laboratory, releasing a mysterious and rapidly spreading biological material called the Matter.
The Matter begins to transform the environment and living organisms around the Crest Laboratory, leading to numerous casualties and environmental changes.
In response to the Burst, a government-affiliated project named A.I.C.O. is initiated to create a biological-robotic interface to combat and understand the Matter.
Aiko Tachibana is introduced as a synthetic human with a key connection to the Matter and the Burst incident, designed to gather data and control the spreading Matter.
It is revealed that Aiko Tachibana's consciousness was transferred into an artificial body after the Burst, making her a unique entity bridging human and Matter.
Yuuya Kaizaki joins the team aiming to rescue Aiko from the affected Crest area and understand the role of the Matter.
The rescue team, led by Yuuya and including Aiko, ventures into the flooded and Matter-infected Crest Laboratory to find answers and halt the spread.
The team discovers more instances of artificial organisms like Aiko, elaborating the extent of the Burst's impact and the complexity behind the A.I.C.O. Project.
Tensions rise between the rescue team and governmental forces over control of the Matter and the future of the artificial organisms.
After multiple confrontations and revelations, the team manages to contain the spread of the Matter and stabilize Aiko's condition, preventing further disaster.
