The plot of Vividred Operation is original, i.e., it has no source material. The story centers on a 14‑year‑old protagonist who lives with her grandfather and younger sister in considerable poverty. However, this is only one side of the story. On the other hand, the protagonist, together with a number of her friends, battles all kinds of calamities, saves Earth, and in general protects everything that has any significance to them. The novelty is particularly notable for coming from the depths of A‑1 Pictures (Sword Art Online). The director and character designer is Kazuhiko Takamura, who has worked on Gurren Lagann, Blood+, and The Idolmaster. The screenwriter Hiroyuki Yoshino is responsible for Macross Frontier and Guilty Crown.
