That’s what I was thought to be quite interesting and I was hoping for there to be a message behind the bombings and some deeper meaning and connections, but sadly that wasn’t so. And they announce their terrorist attacks on YouTube and ask the police riddles, so they may or may not stop the bomb from going off. That’s a weird characteristic for two young blooded terrorists, but there are reasons for this, obviously. Basically the show is about two special kids, who build bombs and make them explode, but with no people around so nobody gets hurt. “An anime about terrorism?” Sounds thrilling alright, but sadly it turned out to be quite a train wreck with lose plot and lackluster characters in the long run. The plot, or rather the premise, was what caught my attention and interest at first. Just make sure that I will NOT be able to hideĪll possible spoilers, so just read this review if you have already finished the show or dropped it and don’t consider picking it up again! Or if you just don’t care about spoilers. The show also gained a bit of a hype because of the famous Shinichiro Watanabe (Samurai Champloo, Cowboy Bebop), who I am in all honesty no big fan of, but okay, let's get this review started. Zankyou no Terror (Terror in Resonance or Terror in Tokyo in English) was one of my most anticipated titles of the season and I am sure I was not alone. How much did I praise you during the early few episodes, but how could I know that you will turn out how you did. Shibazaki, on his part, grows to become more and more ideologically aligned with Sphinx after learning about their history, and later asks to see Nine in custody as he "knows better than anyone else " In the end, Nine entrusts Shibazaki with Sphinx's final goal after their deaths, and Shibazaki becomes their spokesperson to the world.Oh, Zankyou no Terror. Nine not only turns to Shibazaki to help them save Lisa at the airport, but also later refuses to speak in custody unless he can see Shibazaki first or hold a press conference. It is also unclear whether Nine harbors residual guilt over abandoning Five at the settlement, or if he merely views her as a psychopathic threat to Sphinx's ultimate goal.Īlthough Shibazaki is at first an capable opponent of Sphinx who is wary and angered over Sphinx's theft at Aomori due to his own past, Nine and Shibazaki share a mutual respect that later grows into a pivotal exchange of trust as Shibazaki uncovers more of Nine and Twelve's past.
Five is one of the only people that Nine views as a genuine threat, as her intelligence and hacking abilities appear to parallel, if not surpass, Nine's own. The exact nature of their relationship is unclear, but it seems that Nine and Five were involved in some sort of "competition" or "game" that Five insists on carrying over to the present day. Nine and Five grew up together in the settlement, and it appears from Nine's flashbacks and dreams that his relationship with Five is something that haunts him ever since he and Twelve escaped. He also told Shibazaki to protect her after their deaths. He lets her stay at their apartment for a while, and even though they discussed moving Lisa out of their home, they never got around doing it. Although he acts cold and indifferent to Lisa, he does not dislike her. Nine does not care about Lisa as much as Twelve does this is shown when he does not go to save her with Twelve. On his part, despite Nine's emotionless demeanor, he openly expresses profound agony and grief at the moment of Twelve's death. The thought of betraying Nine is something that shakes Twelve down to his core. Twelve also is able to sense when Nine is having an "episode" and frequently asks Nine if he's okay. Because of everything they've been through, Nine cares for Twelve more than anything and would do anything for him. Their relationship is very deep and they will sacrifice their lives for each other without hesitation.
Although Nine looks tough from outside, he acts more openly when he is with Twelve and generally acts like a big brother.
They met in an institution, as children, connected with each other and were able to concoct a plan to escape the oppressive settlement they lived at.
Nine and Twelve have a deep, intimate, and brotherly relationship that at times appears to transcend verbal expression.
