==Reception==
For the most part, critics had a negative reaction to the series. Steve Jones and Nicholas Dupree of [[Anime News Network]] were critical, wondering why the anime was created, calling it a "strange duck" with questionable creative choices, called the musical numbers subpar, said that it was not "technically an [[idol anime]]," criticized the "mythologizing and near-deification" of [[Kizuna Ai]], said the finished product of the anime looked tolike beit had "been handled by boardrooms full of ill-fitting suits" or extolling the "virtues of [[Artificial intelligence art|AI art]]."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/this-week-in-anime/2023-05-02/.197693|last1=Jones|first1=Steve|last2=Dupree|first2=Steve|title=This Week in Anime: The Corp-orification of Kizuna Ai|website=[[Anime News Network]]|date=2 May 2, 2023|access-date=6 December 6, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230509132936/https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/this-week-in-anime/2023-05-02/.197693|archive-date=9 May 9, 2023|url-status=live}}</ref> In another article on the same site, Jones described the series as "one of the most nakedly cynical and corporation-poisoned anime projects" he had ever seen, even as a fan of [[VTubers]], and suggested people "stay away from this slop."<ref>{{cite web|last=Jones|first=Steve|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/feature/2023-06-26/the-best-and-worst-anime-of-spring-2023/.199130|title=The Best and Worst Anime of Spring 2023|website=[[Anime News Network]]|date=26 June 26, 2023|access-date=6 December 6, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230712053512/https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/feature/2023-06-26/the-best-and-worst-anime-of-spring-2023/.199130|archive-date=12 July 12, 2023|url-status=live}}</ref> TheANN's Spring 2023 anime preview guide, on ANN, was similarly critical. Reviewer Richard Eisenbeis said he was not interested in the series, and said the depiction of a world werewhere "live-streaming and idol culture collide" was not enough to offset the other issues of the series and James Beckett said he would be "happy to remain ignorant and devote my time this season to searching for greener, less uncanny pastures" rather than watching the series. Dupree had similar thoughts but said the series looked "fine" and said there was a "certain charm to the 3D segments." and Rebecca Silverman described the series as better than ''[[Alice Gear Aegis#Anime|Alice Gear Aegis Expansion]]'', and appreciated the choreography of Miracle, but called the series "plainly a showcase for virtual idols."<ref>{{cite web|last1=Eisenbeis|first1=Richard|last2=Beckett|first2=James|last3=Dupree|first3=Nicholas|last4=Silverman|first4=Rebecca|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/preview-guide/2023/spring/kizuna-no-allele/.195867|title=The Spring 2023 Anime Preview Guide: Kizuna no Allele|date=3 April 3, 2023|website=[[Anime News Network]]|access-date=6 December 6, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230702100756/https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/preview-guide/2023/spring/kizuna-no-allele/.195867|archive-date=2 July 2, 2023|url-status=live}}</ref>
''Anime Feminist'' was also critical, calling it a "dull, calculated cash-in" which didn'tdid not capture VTuber culture, passed on the series after it "started shilling" for [[NFTs]] in a segment following episode 3, and questioned thereif it is a "forced meme or not."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.animefeminist.com/weekly-round-up-29-march-4-april-2023/|title=Weekly Round-Up, 29 March – 4 April 2023: Feminist Scholar Ueno Chizuko, Good Smile’sSmile's Right-Wing Connections, and Disability in Sports Manga|website=Anime Feminist|date=April 5, April 2023|access-date=6 December 6, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230603012148/https://www.animefeminist.com/weekly-round-up-29-march-4-april-2023/|archive-date=3 June 3, 2023|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.animefeminist.com/2023-spring-three-episode-check-in/|title=2023 Spring Three-Episode Check-In|website=Anime Feminist|date=5 April 5, 2023|access-date=28 April 28, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230603012623/https://www.animefeminist.com/2023-spring-three-episode-check-in/|archive-date=3 June 3, 2023|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.animefeminist.com/2023-spring-premiere-digest/|title=2023 Spring Premiere Digest|website=Anime Feminist|date=14 April 14, 2023|access-date=6 December 6, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230603015923/https://www.animefeminist.com/2023-spring-premiere-digest/|archive-date=3 June 3, 2023|url-status=live}}</ref> Reviewer Chiaki Hirai, examining the show's first episode, criticized Miracle's character and stated that while the show had "nothing problematic" at that point, it was, for her, an embodiment of everything she found "tiresome about the artificiality of pop entertainment in Japan," and recommended people watch ''[[My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999]]'' instead.<ref>{{cite web|last=Hirai|first=Chiaki|url=https://www.animefeminist.com/kizuna-no-allele-episode-1/|title=Kizuna no Allele – Episode 1|website=Anime Feminist|date=4 April 4, 2023|access-date=6 December 6, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231002052811/https://www.animefeminist.com/kizuna-no-allele-episode-1/|archive-date=2 October 2, 2023|url-status=live}}</ref>
