I have never ever written any reviews on this website about any anime. I don't know how to make a review, or to even express my feelings properly through words. However, I can't just let this anime go without telling EVERYONE that this series is one of the most amazing, breathtaking, astonishing, marvelous, etc, (add words that are synonymous to amazing yourself) anime series that I've seen.

Story 10 / 10
One word. Extraordinary. Normally, terrorism would be a very difficult theme to tackle in any anime. Maintaining the level of interest of the audience would be a difficult because the theme requires seriousness most of ... the times, if not, through out the series. Zankyou no Terror succeeded in doing so. The addition of a little romance to the story also had a positive impact to the story.
The riddles mentioned in the anime were also superb. I found myself trying to solve the riddles (and even looking it up online, too!) sometimes. Plus, no "power of feelings / friendship" was involved which is great (because that is quite common to some anime hehe)

Art 10 / 10
The art is very realistic and dark. It suits the theme of the series. I especially liked the the way night time is depicted in the city because the lights, the sceneries are gorgeous!

Sound 10 / 10
What can I say? The OST's always got my attention. There was never a time that I skipped the OP's and ED. Even the sounds of the explosions, the screams of people, everything, seemed so real.

Character 9 / 10
Nine and Twelve's mysteriousness and intellectual brilliance is hard to ignore. Despite these similarities in characteristics, they both have different personalities, which I personally liked. The only thing I didn't like is the fact that the Shibazaki is a too-perfect-detective. He knew everything. He solved every riddle. It was too unrealistic.

Enjoyment 9 / 10
This is one of those anime that you look forward to watching every week. I rated 10 out of 10 because would I keep on watching it if I didn't enjoy it? The story is very intriguing and unpredictable and you just want to know what happens next. I gave it 9 out of 10 tho because there are times when I feel like an episode is giving too much spotlight to the police.

Overall 9 / 10
The fact that this anime made me write a review is just a proof of how amazing this series is. Hehe joking aside, I've never seen anime as good and intriguing as this in quite a long time. I definitely recommend it to everyone.
