Terror in Resonance

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.

Few episodes, a well written story and a tense plot. I kept waiting each week for a new episode. Every now and then there comes an anime which literally changes your thoughts about anime (and by that i mean Japanese anime only). Your are surprised by the potential this medium has for story telling. Two terrorists, a girl who gets involved with them and a detective on the chase. Sounds simple but the execution of the story and the ending will just amaze you. Only 11 episodes which can be binge watched. Give it a try.I am waiting for new shows from this writer and the production team. Zankyou no Terror is one of my favourite animes.

"Zankyou no Terror" is truly a masterpiece. It handles moral ambiguity and anti-heroism with rarely seen grace. It is respectful to the characters, fleshing them out, highlighting the good, the bad, and the ugly alike. It is respectful to the viewers, allowing them to come to their own conclusions about the characters, or the moral justification of their actions. It is powerful enough on its own to allow the viewers to feel emotion naturally, rather than forcing the characters' emotion onto them. The plot is beautiful and excellently executed. The ending leaves the viewers with a sense of satisfaction and hope, rather than leaving them feeling like there was more to be done or said. The voice acting is wonderful, minus failed attempts at "Engrish" a number of times. Elements of the animation, such as the dynamic lighting and imperfect "camerawork," give it a very realistic atmosphere. The soundtrack is excellent, complementing the atmosphere of each scene flawlessly. "Zankyou no Terror" is a work of art that should not be missed!

Okay, so Terror in Resonance (残響のテロル) has only began airing on July 10, 2014 but to tell the truth? Hell, yeah! This anime is high-quality if it's comes to entertainment and thrill! Shinichirō Watanabe (director),Kazuto Nakazawa (character designs) and Yoko Kanno (music) just nailed a perfect balance and it's staying. Oh, it's staying! I love this anime and I can't stand the time I have to wait until I can see the next episode! I'm not saying these because we have a name Shinichirō Watanabe here, who is responsible for Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo and Space Dandy - thus quality isn't really a question now - but because these guys just made something that so rare, masterful you could say.

I don't know guys, maybe I'm a little too passionate about this series but I really don't mind. It got me.

"Zankyou No Terror" is a much watch series. If I were to compare it to another series, I would say that the storyline somewhat resembles that of "Money Heist," while the character's have a somewhat "Deathnote" vibe. The main characters are anti-heroes whose actions are left to be judged by the viewers. However, the viewer is left wondering about the governments actions and it can be said that there are some political connotations in the story. The story is simple yet elegant, keeping up suspense that intrigues the viewer. The animation and voice acting is also pretty solid, while the soundtrack is amongst my favorites.

On the downside, the series felt a bit rushed in the last 3-4 episodes and the few instances of English voice acting (not to be confused with the English dub which I haven't seen) was terrible.

All in all, "Zankyou no Terror" is brilliant and a must watch for everyone, including non-anime fans.
