If two terrorists started bombing around to spread a message, putting people's lives at risk and ruining millions of dollars in property, as well as unleashing an atomic bomb over the city, causing everyone to evacuate and shutting off the electricity (how did two 17 yr olds do this again?) and miraculously killed no one, all to spread some message about how they were experimented on as kids, I'd still hate the heck out of them. Let's say I lived in Tokyo or some other major city with lots of people. Overall, I think some parts of this are nonsensical or illogical. She's got the Americans on her side, but for what? I guess she was just there to dick around. Yeah she wants to play a game with twelve (or whatever the glasses terrorists number name is) but like, why? Why is she doing all this. Yeah I like her, but she's just there just cause. It's like she's there to spice things up. She's sorta there, just cause? In the end she has no bearing on the outcome of the plot. And finally, on to the lady with that onion looking hair. Seriously, why? I know she's troubled and weak cause of being bullied, but I don't think she has mental issues. What I really don't get is why shes hanging out and living with two terrorists. She's bullied (just cause) and has an unstable mother (who we never hear from after Lisa runs always). On to Lisa, I thought she was really weak.
Sure, they had that tragic backstory, and yes they didn't want to kill anyone, but other then that I still considered them villains of some sort (especially since they destroyed millions of dollars in property damages, all to spread the message that they really could've gotten through with their first bombing.) I also thought it was weird they were all about not killing anyone, and yet they highly considered killing Lisa, whom they forced to be an accomplice. In the end, I still didn't really care for them. In the beginning I hated the two main guys, because I just thought of them as weird edgy teens who somehow had the smarts to create and detonate bombs throughout Tokyo, without anyone having caught on to them whatsoever. This show is the definition of "alright". Then there's Five, a woman with wild hair who wants to. Along the way they meet some girl named Lisa who's a really weak character and doesn't do much now that I think about it. Terror in resonance is about two young guys who plant different bombs around Tokyo, while the police scramble to find out who, where, and why. "Zankyou no Terror" is a work of art that should not be missed! The soundtrack is excellent, complementing the atmosphere of each scene flawlessly. Elements of the animation, such as the dynamic lighting and imperfect "camerawork," give it a very realistic atmosphere. The voice acting is wonderful, minus failed attempts at "Engrish" a number of times. 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 plot is beautiful and excellently executed. It is powerful enough on its own to allow the viewers to feel emotion naturally, rather than forcing the characters' emotion onto them. 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 respectful to the characters, fleshing them out, highlighting the good, the bad, and the ugly alike. It handles moral ambiguity and anti-heroism with rarely seen grace. "Zankyou no Terror" is truly a masterpiece.
