Terror in resonance

Re-entering a period of anime obsession, I honestly couldn't ask for a better start. Everything about this series is so well written, composed and planned out: The plot is unique and catching from the very beginning, humoristic and dead serious, the music is fantastic; so unusual yet emotional, and despite the characters being a little stereotyped, they didn't fail to amaze me with their strong personalities and relationships. It's been a while, since I watched an anime that really 'got' me the way that Zankyou no Terror did, and unfortunately it makes it hard for other thriller-anime to compete. Call me a fan-girl, but I am so stunned from the show at the moment, that I can't watch another one without feeling that Zankyou keeps mocking them down immediately. Repect. What a masterpiece. What a clean masterpiece.

A really enjoyable anime, especially for those who like psychological anime. The characters were complex and mysterious and I liked the humanity in them. The ending was sad. The art really good as well was the action scenes. I do wish there was another season though. So eight out of ten.

The first episodes create an interesting premise: a mysterious terrorist group, nuclear threat, manipulation, government conspiracies, yep we're in the 2010's...

Everything is beautiful animated, the music's really great and at any moment you expect this show to really gain momentum and explode. But in my humble opinion this just doesn't happen.

The main characters are quite sterile, I didn't end up caring for them.

A lot of elements covered in the story were already explored in numerous other (anime) works. Some twists are quite far fetched and silly.

And when the plot is finally revealed... well there weren't surprises.

Everyone can see so much work, dedication and love went into this series, so it is still worth to check it out.

I almost gave up on this anime, because it starts off very slowly, and requires patience to get through the first half, but if persevered, the second half more than makes the whole watching experience worthwhile.

At first, this anime appears to resemble a typical cat and mouse chase of criminal masterminds, but the second half reveals that much more complexity and helps you develop more empathy and connection with all the characters involved.

Overall, I feel that it could have been structured a lot better if more character development and contextual hints were revealed earlier in the plot, but I guess this way, the ending feels even more surprising and satisfying in a strange way.

My favour anime director Shinichiro Watanabe did it again, and oh my god he created a really interesting detective thriller story.

The anime looks amazing, beautiful animation and character design that has enough human feature to be semi-realistic, but still has their anime flavored big eyes and Big round head.

A soundtrack that's gonna blow you socks off. One of the best anime soundtracks,I really enjoyed it. And it's played perfectly in Lower tones and higher tones to build up or to suspense. It is one of my favorite soundtracks.

And the mystery is so nicely build up with old puzzles, the Old detective guy have to finger out, in a intelligent matter that goes back to Greek mythology. It all ends up being a deeper conspiracy than anyone could imagine.

It feels like an action thriller movie that has been made to 11 episode shows, so it has a really good pacing and just keep bringing interesting stuff up. The music just, oh my god it brings everything to a higher level.

The characters that are so likeable and the English performances certainly hold up. The main two characters are a mystery, So you want to understand more about them, the Old detective that was kicked a side, that has a mystery to solve, and the young girl that has nowhere to be and found herself in the middle of it all. Strong likeable characters just all around.

So in short amazing character design, amazing Music, amazing directing, just everything is so good. I would really recommend it.
