#Zankyou no terror art series

All the OSTs were beautiful were a melodic tune that captured the thrilling and mysterious essence of the show. First it was the opening that gripped me by the shoulders, invoking the emotions of suspense, yearning, and fear. I don't give many tens for music, but this anime deserved it. Like the art, the music had to be the best of the season. So much detail went into the characters from their waving hair to the subtle qualities in their eyes, to each expression and mannerism. The characters actually look Japanese, not to mention very realistic. Whike it may look rather plain, the artwork is really THE best ALL season. Even having been annoyed by one (Five), she was not detrimental to the plot in the long run. As the story continued more characters were introduced - all with the purpose of helping the storyline. It was a short ride, but a memorable one.įrom the beginning, the base plot was perfectly mapped out with a pretty accurate summary of what the show might be like. All I can say is that this is the first time I've ever truly been satisfied with an anime that only ran for eleven episodes. However, if you are the type to like fluffy shoujo stories, I suggest you give this a chance, but you might not like it. For those who likes animes with a deeper meaning, this one is also for you. There are a lot of mental games, and if you enjoy figuring those out and playing along, you will enjoy this anime. Now this anime, like all psychological thrillers, is for the discerning of mind. I feel that all the subliminal messages in this anime are very deep enough to make one cry. The constant message of 'Von' means 'Hope.' Twelve and Nine are trying to remind themselves -and others - of hope. It is of Icelandic origin, and most of the OSTs are sung in this language, making them sound like a piece of Björk's. There is a constant message being played throughout 'Zankyou no Terror' Von. But it happened, and now that it's over, I am not complaining. And maybe this is me hating on the character, but I felt that her existence affected the anime greatly, in a slightly negative way. She was severely detrimental to the boys' plans. There was only one thing that bothered me: a character named Five. I don't think any pacing was a bit off in this anime the transitions were smoothe, Twelve's and Nine's motives were slowly unveilved, and there were no characters introduced last minute. Another part I felt was executed correctly was the pacing. It was a chaotic dream sequence with vague images telling a background story, accompanied by eerie music that further accentuated the dream-like state (lolol - OST). There is a segment in the anime where Nine has a nightmare, and I say other should take notes, because that is how a nightmare should look and sound. The music was truly the best of this season. This is the first time I had ever seen such detailed, and realistic animation - the first time characters actually looked Japanese. Not only did it seem to have a good base for a great storyline, but it was intriguing from just the art alone. It all started with the opening song that just screamed 'love me!' And as ordered, I fell in love. I'm constantly on the look out for a good psychological thriller. This anime was definitely my favorite this season. She has a sweet, timid voice that makes this otherwise uncharming girl kind of cute. The boys' accomplice, Mishima, Lisa, was voiced by Tanezaki, Atsumi who did a wonderful portrayal of a young, lonely girl with deep insecurities (also played Natsume, Asako ). It reminds one of a dark and twisted Nagisa (Free!!), but holds more depth than that. Likewise, Saito, Soma takes Twelve's character and does his own this with it, bringing the street smart, energetic boy to life (also played Tatsumi ). The voice is deep and silky like velvet, but hides a certain weakness under the dark tones. Ishikawa takes Nine's sadistic, yet kind and insucure personality and molds a new voice for this character.

The three main voice actors of this series open the audience to a whole new world of desperation, solitude, and hope. Ishikawa, Kaito plays the brilliant, but shut off Nine, a genius hacker and brilliant mastermind (also played Harutora ). The police are powerless to stop these children - who shouldn't even exist - from pulling the trigger on this world. As terrorists, they go by the name of 'Sphinx,' uploading videos to tell where the next attack will be. 'Zankyou no Terror' is a story about two odd teenage boys, Nine and Twelve. I don't know what expectations I had for this anime, but it sure exceeded any thoughts about it swirling around in my mind. 'Zankyou no Terror' is a terrifying thriller that will resonate with your soul.
