Netflix’s Terminator Zero anime starts streaming in August

Terminator Zero won’t ignore any of the movies.

If you recall your convoluted time-traveling, skin-wearing cyborg apocalypse history, you’ll realize that’s the 27th anniversary of the series’ Judgment Day, when the machines begin their conquest of humanity. The basic plot involves a soldier going back in time to protect a scientist named Malcolm Lee who’s trying to create a benevolent AI system to fend off the bad one that’s going to destroy humanity, including his three kids. Terminator Zero has some proven talent behind it.Masashi Kudō, who worked on Bleach, is its director, and Production I.G has excellent bona fides, like the 1995 Ghost in the Shell film and the anime series FLCL.
