The ViraBots are the secondary antagonists of Season 2 of the Animator vs. Animation series.
They are a species of dangerous and violent computer viruses created by the Dark Lord that enter the computer undetected and wreck havoc once inside. They were planned to invade countless computers, as well as the Internet itself, by entering some of the world's most-used websites.
History[]
Backstory[]
ViraBots were created by the Dark Lord as a new way of spreading destruction and chaos across the internet. The Dark Lord intended to infect and destroy countless, if not every computer in the world. However, the Dark Lord's former partner, the Chosen One, realizes the Dark Lord has gone too far and tries to stop him. The two fight and the machine that distributes the viruses is destroyed, but not before a single copy of ViraBot is sent to the Animator's computer. The Chosen One, in an attempt to stop the ViraBot, goes after it.
The Virus - Animator vs. Animation 5[]
Soon, the Animator and the Second Coming, aka "Orange", are seen animating and having fun. However, the Animator notices that his computer is overheating. He opens the Task Manager to discover a virus on his computer. He and Orange try to end the task, but are locked out. They enter the menus to find the virus has corrupted the applications and files, and will not let them access the Control Panel or Antivirus. The two then discover the virus' icon on the Desktop and try to delete it, but nothing works. Orange has the Animator draw him a hammer, and begins rapidly hitting the icon.
However, the icon takes no damage. Instead, it hatches open like an egg and releases the ViraBot. Orange tries to hit it, but the ViraBot steals the hammer away and bites it, corroding it away into nothing but data. It then attacks the stick figure, but the Animator saves him by trapping it in barriers. ViraBot corrodes the barriers away, but is then hit by a rocket drawn by Orange. The stick figure draws more rockets, but ViraBot dodges them and then defends itself by throwing spiked projectiles at the missiles, corroding them away. He then draws a giant fly swatter and the Animator swats ViraBot with it. As it is down, the Animator and Orange try to draw a bazooka, but ViraBot gets back up, destroys the swatter and bazooka, and steals Orange's pencil and eats it. It tries to attack the stick figure again, but the Animator grabs it and begins repeatedly slamming it with the window. Orange gets away and gets his allies Blue, Red, Green, and Yellow to help. ViraBot escapes and attacks the stick figures in the internet browser, but the Animator saves them. However, ViraBot destroys his cursor and blocks his access to the Control Panel, cutting him off from his computer and forcing him to do nothing but watch.
The stick figures gang up on ViraBot and begin beating it up, but ViraBot soon turns the tides against them and begins soundly handling them all itself. It produces a glue-like webbing, and sticks Blue, Red, Green, and Yellow to a wall. It traps Orange's foot in webbing, then grows dagger-like spikes on its appendages and slowly approaches, ready to murder Orange.
As the ViraBot tries to attack, an explosion suddenly forces it back and a portal emerges from the smoke. ViraBot, the stick figures, and the Animator look on with shock as the Chosen One emerges from the portal, then faces ViraBot. The two brandish their weapons, then jump to fight each other.
The Chosen One's Return - Animator vs. Animation 6[]
The Chosen One attacks with fire while ViraBot attacks with blades and spikes, but the Chosen One is able to keep pace with the barrage of attacks and projectiles and block and dodge them all. ViraBot eventually hits the Chosen One with a series of spikes, but the Chosen One seems resistant to their corrosive powers. ViraBot jumps in for the kill, and the Chosen One defends himself with his laser beams. The Chosen One corners ViraBot, and the virus escapes into the computer's system. It then takes control of the windows and menus of the computer and proceeds to beat up the Chosen One with them. ViraBot then breaks the windows and turns the pieces into a giant version of itself, and proceeds to bite and rapidly beat the Chosen One. The Chosen One, enraged, catches fire and summons lightning to fight the giant virus, attacking with a wave of energy that forces the virus out of the programs and back onto the desktop. The Chosen One then attacks it with a barrage of fire, lightning, wind, and energy, destroying it. He then leaves the computer, and the rest of the stick figures follow him, curious as to who he is.
The Showdown - Animator vs. Animation 8[]
Upon leaving the computer and entering the Outernet, the stick figures explore the Dark Lord's shack, and Blue and Yellow see an army of ViraBots in a huge hole.
Later on, when the Dark Lord is getting beaten up by the Chosen One and the Animator, he summons all of his ViraBots, which eventually destroy the Animator's cursor. They later start attacking the Chosen One, biting and defeating him, although they aren't strong enough to kill him. After the Dark Lord slaughters the Fighting Stick Figures and injures Orange, he orders the remaining of the ViraBots to invade the internet. However, Orange unlocks his hidden superpowers. He attacks the ViraBots, ripping them into shreds, and then attacks the Dark Lord. He sends the few remaining ViraBots after Orange, but he destroys them all with a blast of energy, ending the threat they could have posed to the Internet. He then defeats and possibly even kills the Dark Lord mere minutes afterwards, making sure that nobody will recreate them ever again.
Actual Shorts[]
In "Pop Ups", a pop up can be seen advertising ViraBot. That said, it's more than likely just a gag then an actual sign ViraBots are still around.
Appearance[]
ViraBots are spider viruses that have dark red bodies with light red outlines. Their body is oval-shaped, with pincers with a small horn on either side of the pincers. ViraBots have two back legs that they stand on and fights with, and also have two front arms that house its abilities.
Personality[]
ViraBots are sadistic and violent computer viruses that seem to not want anything more than just to destroy and hurt. Though they seem to be feral beasts at first, one of them shows that they take pleasure in what they do and desire to cause as much chaos as they can. When they think they have their foes beaten, they might take their time to finish them off and mockingly sharpen their blades while approaching. They appear to be wrathful and cruel, not relenting in their attacks and always seeking to do as much damage as they can to the environment and those around it.

Trivia[]
- When a ViraBot enters the internet browser, its mere presence opens several fraudulent and presumably virus-laden tabs.
- A ViraBot does not need to use its mandibles to delete something, a mere wave of its leg or arm would work.
- It can infect and control tabs, and use them to create shapes or a gargantuan version of itself.
- A brief look at one of the Dark Lord's blueprints implies two ViraBots were called Virus-0 and XNTXFCO-2-WP (possibly WIP or VIP).
