Critics raving about the series say that Terminator Zero has incredibly high production value, with gorgeous animation, intense action sequences, and a meaningful story discussing humanity, mortality, and morality.

Terminator Zero takes place in 1997 Tokyo, and follows Malcolm Lee, a man developing a powerful AI system named “Kokoro” that’s designed to compete with the infamous Skynet. Right before Judgement Day, Malcolm finds himself, as well as his children, being hunted by an indestructible robot when a mysterious soldier from the distant future finds him, claiming that they’ve been sent to protect him.
