The majority of the first reactions to Terminator Zero have been highly positive, with special praise directed at the show’s animation, violence, gore, voice performances (particularly Andre Holland and Timothy Olyphant), and storyline. Some critics have even declared the show the best entry to the Terminator franchise since 1991’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day, which marked the second collaboration between Arnold Schwarzenegger and director James Cameron.
Showrunner Mattson Tomlin has also received praise for giving the Terminator franchise an entirely new direction through his latest anime project. Overall, the series looks fresh, intense, hardcore, and realistic, and promises to offer plenty of twists.
