The dreamlike video shows Nora, dressed in jewels, emerging from a lake and attempting to entice a soldier.

As he drinks water, we see he is decked out in jewels and has tattoos. At that moment, he notices a woman emerge from the lake. She is dressed in gold with elaborate headgear and tattoos. This is followed by a dance number with Nora surrounded by backup dancers.Jibaro, the ninth episode of the third season of Netflix's Love, Death + Robots, streamed in 2022. It followed a lone surviving conquistador somewhere deep in the Amazon jungle, escaping a siren-like entity. The siren was dressed in all gold and emerged from a lake, while the conquistador had tattoos and piercings, with many fans calling the costumes and settings too similar to ignore. The internet reactsAs soon as the video was released on YouTube, many social media users commented on the similarities: “It's giving 'Jibaro' from Love, Death and Robots... But love the twist!!!,” one wrote in the comments. Another added, “The visuals are copied from Love, Death and Robots from Netflix.” Others were harsher in their assessment of the ‘inspiration’ for the song’s visuals. “Copy cats can't create original,” declared one YouTube comment.A content creator, Filmy Sonia, shared side-by-side comparisons of the two videos on her Instagram account on Sunday, eliciting more responses. "I just saw the teaser, and I felt like it isn't this Jibaro? And it sure was a full-fledged copy," one comment read. Some, however, defended the visuals, saying they were 'inspired'. But one Instagrammer argued, "Calling something 'inspired' is hard to digest when Bollywood has a history of copying. It really makes me mad when original art is copied with no credits given. And to what extent can you be inspired so as to copy the whole sequence??"All about JibaroCreated by Tim Miller, Love, Death + Robots is an animated anthology series that tells separate stories about technology, horror, fantasy, and even comedy.
