The world of Zankyou no Terror is identical to our own, and the art style emphasizes this realism. But that is to be expected of people whose first language is not English. The voice acting on the other hand, particularly the American characters, could quite frankly use a LOT of work. The dialogue, while perhaps not flawless, was nonetheless understandable and did not detract one bit from the story. This journey was conveyed through beautiful artwork and a soundtrack the likes of which I have never heard.
They develop, not as characters, but as people. They've been through hell and back and it is that hell that has made them into the people we see in this series. The show constantly reminded me that these kids have a past that no one should want to have.
Over the course of the series I fell in love with the characters, I cared for them, and when it was all said and done, I wanted to shed a tear for them. But those flaws, to me, are quite insignificant. In fact if they are reading this review, they're probably laughing their asses off, possibly pointing out where the series had flaws. Perhaps not everyone views it quite like I do. Left as it is, Zankyou no Terror(Terror in Resonance) is a masterpiece. And as much as I would love for there to be more, I can't in good conscience say that there has to be. And while the odds of a continuation are next to zero. As a writer, I was deeply moved by this short story. Not yet." But it was over, and all I could do was sit there and ponder the very clear message that this series had left me with. Has left me in a state of complete catharsis.Īs I sat in my chair following the end of the shows eleven episode run, I was speechless.
I am no professional anime reviewer, I'm merely a fan who watches anime for their deep messages and personal enjoyment. Not once have I ever considered an anime to be a perfect 10/10. From the characters, to the sounds, the story, the setting, and the eb & flow. And when I watch all of these countless series and films, I think about how similar they all are. And other times it is something I have watched countless times. Sometimes it's something I haven't seen before. Over the past eleven years of my short time on Earth, I have been watching anime.
