A successful and VERY anime styled exploration of the Terminator story.
Not all of it works, but it's generally good, has some great visuals and feels like exactly what it is, a Terminator Anime.

Terminator Zero

There may be no fate but what we make, but if this new animated take on the time travelling killer robot franchise is to be believed, there may be no fate at all! Before Terminator Zero we have had 6 Terminator movies, a Machinima series (?) a TV show exploring the wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey interactions of Skynet, the Terminators and the human survivors lead by John Connor. Now for the first time we’re exploring what the rest of the world was doing at the same time… in Anime form thanks to Production IG and Netflix!

We’re all in the time bubble for this episode, though as we’re all in the buff, our eyes are staying very firmly above the neck.

SYNOPSIS

In 1997 Tokyo, Malcolm Lee is developing Kokoro, an AI system intended to compete with Skynet. A day before Judgment Day, Lee finds himself and his three children pursued by an unknown robot assassin and a mysterious soldier from the year 2022 has been sent to protect him.

In this episode we also discussed:

Trap

Slow Horses

Only Murderers in the Building

and

The Legend of Vox Machina
