unique-pov: my little monster had a very unique concept As for me, I haven't watched much of Shoujo Anime but, it quite reveals the point of view from a girl's perspective. It shows that they usually find boys annoying; on the flip side boys, think that they they want to have a relationship with them "and to talk to them" [ep12-2:43] as what anime suggests.
art-style: I fell in love with the art style and animation as it Felt like pastel-based colours drawn on-screen. I searched up, but it was made by an unknown manga artist, Robico. Not info further that.

Terror in Resonance (Zankyou no Terror) – Review (8/10)
Terror in Resonance by Madhouse is a psychological thriller that delivers a hauntingly dark and nihilistic experience. It explores themes of terrorism, government corruption, and the consequences of forgotten pasts. The anime is an artistic and emotional powerhouse with Shinichirō Watanabe directing and Yoko Kanno composing the soundtrack.

Category Ratings:
Animation: 9/10
Madhouse’s animation quality is top-notch, with fluid motion, crisp detail, and stunningly realistic backgrounds. Explosions, chases, and emotional sequences are animated with precision.

Character Design: 8/10
The character designs, while somewhat minimalist, fit the sombre and realistic tone. Nine and Twelve’s distinct looks reflect their personalities, and Lisa’s fragile, lost ... expression adds depth to her role.

Story: 8/10
The plot is engaging, balancing psychological tension with moral dilemmas. The slow-burn mystery unfolds masterfully, though some viewers might find certain developments slightly predictable or underwhelming.

Soundtrack: 10/10
Yoko Kanno’s score is one of the anime’s strongest aspects. The haunting Icelandic-inspired tracks elevate the tension and emotional weight of each scene.

Audio (Voice Acting & Sound Design): 9/10
The Japanese voice cast delivers stellar performances, with Nine and Twelve’s voices carrying the right mix of detachment and vulnerability. The sound design enhances the realism, from explosions to ambient city noise.

Themes & Symbolism: 8/10
The anime delves into nihilistic and existential themes, exploring how trauma shapes identity and the desire to be remembered. Some symbolism is heavy-handed, but it adds to the overall impact.

Pacing: 7.5/10
The pacing is generally strong but slows in certain segments, particularly with Lisa’s subplot. However, the final episodes ramp up the intensity.

Emotional Impact: 8.5/10
The anime evokes a sense of despair and inevitability, making it a gripping yet melancholic experience.

Final Thoughts:
Terror in Resonance is an anime that leaves a lasting impression, blending psychological drama with a gripping narrative. While not flawless, it excels in atmosphere, music, and thematic depth. Fans of dark, thought-provoking stories will appreciate its artistry and message.

Final Score: 8/10 🎭💀

Art and animation: there is not much to say about it it was pretty modern animation style as it goes nowadays in the earlier series which was released in 1990s around that time that has a very good animation style compared to that but this one doesn't it was fair enough
7/10
Story: The story is quite similar to the original OG OVA which was inspired by games and Pachinko machine games but this time it seems that the main lead character mc is a little bit considerate rather than being mean but you cannot completely agree with that even though how he waves with his pet ... slave.
6\10
Dark turn: The story also has a very dark turn \ twist which in turn completely changes the story's outcome as it also kind of falls into the detective kind of scenario after that.

Art and Animation style: Starting with art because as in an entire hentai, it Was captivating with keep you holding keeps you holding and apart from that the line work and character designs work very authentic I think it might be inspired by the previous games which are based on the same story.
Story: Not pretty much to say any way just like that classic adventurous story when an adventurer goes on a mission and finds unexpected turns and twists with a heartfelt ending maybe that's not true in this case.
Uncensored: Being hentai still it doesn't have much of scenes, it has a plenty enough but ... it somehow works because it just not an hentai also has a good story.
Rating: 6/10

How can I compliment this manga when it perfectly sums up the emotions of a single parent and what if your partner dies... Will remarry? If not why? It just must read for all.
Story- 9/10
Character development- 10/10
Ending- 10/10
The story was refreshed as it's not your usual themed anime in which mc leaves his hopeless lifestyle developed hope within as it is around that but conveyed by decent storytelling.
there will be a rumour about this manga as it has a very flashy or peculiar title but I can assure you there is nothing inappropriate there rather the story has heart-drenching content so if you are reading ... this take out your time and read this manga as will not "regret" reading this.

This is a story about a harem extra girl who is rejected by MC, but her younger brother tries to seduce her.

story- 8/10 Cause it's a unique take on- what happens to extra if they get post-rejection?

Art style- 7/10

characters 6/10 typical harem type.

realism- 7/10

... enjoyable- yes.

review- offers a fresh perspective on the often overlooked characters in harem narratives - the extras. In this manga, we follow the journey of a harem extra girl who faces rejection from the main character, only to find herself entangled in a complex web of emotions and relationships thereafter.

The story presents a unique take on the aftermath of rejection, exploring the psychological and emotional toll it takes on the rejected party. Rather than simply fading into the background, the protagonist is forced to confront her feelings of inadequacy and self-worth as she grapples with her newfound status as an "extra."

What sets this manga apart is its exploration of familial dynamics and taboo subjects. As the rejected girl's younger brother attempts to seduce her, the story delves into themes of forbidden love, societal expectations, and the blurred lines between familial and romantic affection. This unconventional twist adds layers of complexity to the narrative, challenging readers to reconsider their preconceived notions of love and relationships.

This is someone else's review, which I'm sharing instead of theirs.

Okay, I gotta say this before it slips from me, and sorry in advance because this will sound like an "um, actually" moment, but I can't help but geek out: I love the whole premise of the shadow dissociating from the self. very Jungian and factually close to the psychological processing of intense trauma. and the ghost not being able to move on (as far as I understand up until this point) because it cannot accept "all the ugly feelings" (in Jungian psychology, attaining self-actualization cannot happen unless the self integrates with the shadow, and ... confronting your shadow is the first of many confrontations and the hardest to achieve), and cannot remember the most traumatic event of her life (her murder, because people with trauma tend to have memory lapses and become forgetful) are such genius plot points relative to psychological concepts. It's nice that an anime like this can portray such an experience with close accuracy.
