Nine’s anguish over the loss of his closest partner leaves a resounding echo it you ear. The deaths of Twelve and Nine were excellently directed. #ZANKYOU NO TERROR EPISODE 11 DISCUSSION SERIES#But otherwise it provides solid closure to the series while also striking a bit of emotion. In that sense the ending was quite convenient. So the bombing is more counter-productive than useful to Sphinx’s goals. People won’t care who Sphinx is or why they nuked Japan, what they will care about is getting the infrastructure of the country back in order, and that will take a very long time. I’m no expert, but from what I know economic social factors are far stronger than the judicial system. Sure it gets Sphinx worldwide attention (if terrorism in daylight metropolitan Tokyo hasn’t already done that), but how does Sphinx expect that thing will go so smoothly once they broke every piece of electrical equipment in Japan? They’ve essentially knocked-out the entire Japanese economy. This wouldn’t be such a problem had detonating the nuke actually been a good idea. Weird, considering Nine set the bomb only if the conference didn’t happen. If Shibazaki’s assessment is to be believed (and keep in mind he isn’t contradicted), then the bomb was meant to have gone off. The detonation of the bomb does raise some questions however. The vista of the explosion was wonderfully mellow, and the proceeding aurora above a blackened city makes for a gentle climax to this rollercoaster of a series. The bomb is unstoppable, so they there was nothing to do but to look up, and wait. It’s quite refreshing for the show to not give much in the way of heroics. Sphinx does not try to stop their own bomb, instead we see how the people of Japan respond as the small nuclear device floats up into the sky. In a way my expectations were both met and betrayed.įollowing from last week my assumptions about how Zankyou no Terror was going to end were dead off.
