As you might surmise from the title, this thread is for discussion on any anime that is currently airing, doesn't matter if it's a show like One Piece or something more recent like Soul Eater or Code Geass R2.

Just use common sense in the thread, if you talk about a episode that was recently released, use the spoiler tags as a courtesy to the other members. Don't derail from the thread... etc etc.

Edit:

Good lord, I didn't think this was such a hard topic to comprehend.

This thread is for discussion of NEW anime episodes that are being played in JAPAN. In other words - post about series that are currently running in JAPAN that have not finished their season, anything that has a new episode every week in JAPAN.

The only anime I'm watching that is airing at the time of this post is Kyouran Kazoku Nikki.

Other than that, I'm just rewatching old stuff (Air, Kanon, Shana, Hayate, H20 etc). They're just so awesome I have to watch them multiple times =P

Zaotsu's avatar I know is from Clannad. Good anime =P Sig is mentioned above.

Code Geass R2 is ftw.
Rant of the hour: it has so many characters that are so easy to hate, especially as of today's episode... V.V. is pure Smug Snake, Suzaku is flip-flopping like a politician (sure, so it's a deconstruction of the tropes he embodies, but still), and Rolo is failing at dying >:( (spoilers just in case, lol)

Other than that show, I'm not keeping up with any currently-airing anime at the moment. Rewatching/reading stuff - Azumanga Daioh, Nanoha, Fate/Stay Night, Kanon, Full Moon o Sagashite, etc.

Mhm. Avatar is Fuko from Clannad, signature is Eureka from... Eureka seveN.

Code Geass R2 14:
WHY COULDN'T ROLO HAVE FUCKING DIED? WHY?

Lelouch gets a thumbs up for wanting to avenge Shirley's death. I hope Charles kills V.V. or tortures him or something. Seems to be that way from him saying "You lied to me again brother"

Wish I could see spoilers... I just watched that episode also.

It's usually better to watch when they are done airing. Easier to find subs.

I'm waiting for persona 26 to come out right now in subs.

Our signatures are from the same anime. ^^

Actually, I find it much easier to keep up with a Fansub group as they do it, especially if they're doing one already licensed. I torrent though, so I dont know about streaming.

I'd have to agree. I try to find them as they go on, due to the fact it's easier to find the torrents if the series is licenced or going to be licensed when your searching for it in the future. Afterwards, it can be deleted from the site and you have to find somewhere else to get the torrent.

I know most streaming places also get rid of licensed anime, but I can't verify that.

I just prefer to torrent the anime as soon as it gets released. However, I like watching them all at once, instead of every week. Hence why I'm watching them all over again. It may not be the same impact since I know what is going to happen (In the BIG picture), but it's fun seeing the little stuff I forgot =P

I suppose if you torrent from fansubs once they finish it's easier. I have a dislike of torrents because the majority I download have about no seeds. I don't like keeping up with fansubs because I hate waiting a week. I stream a lot too. I torrent when I can't watch a series by streaming.

And yes, I can't see spoilers. Refreshing does nothing. Not sure what kind of things would block spoilers. They work on all other forums. ;x

That's another thing I hate about watching a series after airing. There aren't as many seeds.

The spoiler thing is strange though. I wonder why it would block them.

Right now I'm re-watching R.O.D, but after that I'm going to get started on Crystal Blaze (finished airing last month but Hitode-subs is only up to 10 out of 12) and Chocolate Underground (episodes are like five minutes long. lol). after I catch up on those two, I've got Mai-Hime / Mai-Otome and Princess Princess ready to watch while I wait for releases.

As for other currently airing anime, I find it hard to find a good current anime that I can watch, like, and want to wait for releases. I definetly prefer watching full seasons at once rather than waiting weeks at a time for each episode, but I will do it for an anime that i really like. Last anime I recall doing that for were Ouran (who didn't like this anime?), A ridiculous but funny and cute anime called Chocotto Sister, and a bit of Powerpuff Girls Z (the great horribleness of this anime got old after about 10 eps of insanly horrible .... everything.) I just find it hard to find good anime that I like, and so far, after searching through the current anime line-up, I've found very few that sounded interesting to me.

Is Chocolate Underground good? I remember reading the whole basic plot overview and it seemed really... odd to me. There's not too much from the current season that I can reccomend really... Kyouran Kazoku Nikki is decent, Kamen no Maid Guy is more or less all fanservice with some plot (like Kanokon). Kaiba is unheard levels of awesome though, it's quite strange and a bit of a mind-fuck in how it presents itself.

I have no idea if Chocolate Underground is good or not, I haven't started watching it yet and I only have 3 eps. downloaded atm. If you want though, I can go watch them right now, it would only take me like 10 minutes, rofl.

Ooooooo Kaiba is good? That was one of my maybes of watching, but something was preventing me from downloading it. I don't know what it was though, cause I just found the first nine eps. on Baka-Updates under Froth-Bite subs, so I'll start downloading it now. =)

Edit: Where did you read Chocolate Underground's plot summary at? There's nothing at ANN or Wiki, and after those two I either read about them at their subber's site, or else nowhere at all, and DATS has nothing on them either. -_- I only downloaded it because the artwork looks really good, and at 5 minutes per eps, I'm not wasting much time if it turns out to be a bad anime. lol

No clue about the spoilers then, try asking in the tech help forum.

Soul Eater is amazing. It's a 52 episode series, so it'll be going on till about next Spring or so. It's by the same animation company as Eureka seveN and Full Metal Alchemist - BONES. I recommend it. Good mix of humor and action, sorta a typical Shounen anime.

Yes, VK is Vampire Knight. Its an anime about vampire/human interaction at an academy and how the vampires try to keep their identies secret and the interactions of this "human girl" (though plot twists take that away) and this vampire "prince" (well, prince like, so to say)

Strike Witches Ep 1 & 2:

I just finished watching The Tower of Druaga -the aegis of URUK-. It's a very entertaining anime despite it being based off of an old video game.

2008-07-19, 08:19 PM
Mai-Otome sucks compared to Mai-Hime in my opinion. The S.ifr 0 OVA seems more interesting and well done than Otome + Zwei OVA, even though Kajiura Yuki isn't doing the score because she's too busy with Kara no Kyoukai or something.

Allison to Lillia:
WIL IS A STUPID FUCK. THAT IS ALL I'M SAYING.

Lillia's a cutie with a long name.

FUCKING WIL IS AN IDIOT. ARGH. Why would you even DO that? HONESTLY, UGH. I thought Wil was smart. Wow.

Excuse me as I go kill something or someone.

Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto ~Natsu no Sora~:
I wasn't paying attention to what was going on because the real life backgrounds with cell shaded things made my head go "wot?"

Shugo Chara!:
Cute show and I like mahou shoujos still. Fate clone is hot. Meikyuu Butterfly is a pretty fun song, too.

Zaotsu
2008-07-20, 03:43 PM
World Destruction 1 & 2:

Well, the lead character certainly has interesting motives, unique in that aspect. Animation is decent. Don't really understand what the purpose of all the freakin sand is. No blood from fighting scenes apparently, a bit of a let down. Fighting in general isn't all that interesting in this anime so far. Lots of little animals make me lol, especially @

Cat... King? Who gets killed

Toppi is epic win, reminds me of Detective Kun-Kun from Rozen Maiden.

JoeTang
2008-07-20, 06:35 PM
Yeah, I tried watching Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu Nakoto ~Natsu no Sora~ and that background thing kept ticking me off. Was boring. Maybe it'll get more interesting, but I don't really care that much. I'd rather read it. I did enjoy the opening song though.

Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu is pretty interesting. And fanservice ensues.

Zaotsu
2008-07-20, 11:17 PM
Kay. So.

Chocolate Underground:
Length of episodes is a bit disappointing. I love the tongue-in-cheek mocking of politics though. Some of the animation strikes me as a bit odd. Novel idea overall, wondering how they'll finish this up in only 13 episodes.

Tetsuwan Birdy Decode:
Gratuitous amounts of fanservice at first. The animation really strikes me as well done, but maybe I'm just a fanboy for interesting interspace spaceships. The two leads are interesting, but the male protagonist just comes off as a whiny emo kid. Action is surprisingly fluid, much better than I was expecting as a whole. The whole thing reminds me of MIB, aliens living undercover on our planet...? <_<

Blade of the Immortal:
This shit was confusing. I had no clue what the heck was going on besides tons of violence and random people dying. Way too dark of an ambiance makes viewing it a pain in the ass. How this anime is going to be interesting for fights when the main character is

fucking immortal

is beyond me. Art isn't horribly interesting, since EVERYTHING IS SO DARK. I'll probably watch a few more episodes before deciding whether to drop it or not.

Clannad 24:
Meh, wasn't that great, but it was interesting. I know it was only supposed to focus on Tomoyo x Tomoya, but I would have at least liked to see SOME of the other girls. Although, I'm not sure where this parallels off of, so it may be before he even met either anyone else.

Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu 1 +2: First episode was alright, and then they draw out the "olol I saved you from your personal demons in the past by giving you a macguffin" card to enhance the relationship in the second. I seriously dislike it when series do that :(;; and it doesn't make it any better that said macguffin is a manga magazine. Oh, and the female lead cries too much.

Despite that, I'll be intently watching this show. Why? Because I'm a total loser who enjoys watching people fall in love, no matter how contrived it is. :f4:

Treize is so much cooler than Wil. I really like how Treize doesn't sound so young boy-ish-y. Allison seems cuter than Lilia so far, but the next episode might change my view on her.

Really want to read the books, though....

Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu 3:
ololol, Haruka and Mika and Yuuto and the maids. It's still a pretty cute show, but I can't have Notogasms, so I'm somewhat irritated by Haruka herself.

Is it really that bad to like anime/manga in Japan to some people or something? o_o;

Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu 4: yay shana cosplay <3! Levels of fanservice and contrived coincidence (... nice bridal shop, mistaking the identity of a customer and ignoring all their protests. Didn't sue them, which was nice) continue to rise. OP growing on me despite risqueness, as is the female lead. Still waiting for somebody else from the school to do something like go out of their little minor-character cubbies and go shopping and notice the lead.

Code Geass R2 17: Hmm, Lelouch is good at controlling his emotions and lying. After the recording is aired, I'm guessing Kallen, Jeremiah, Guilford (if he lives), C.C.? will be his only allies left. Hoping Rolo + Suzaku die next episode to the nuke :)

Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu 4:
I don't find Shana or Haruka moe, but that reference was still cute. I think that was my favourite SnS OP song to boot.

It's still sad when my favourite part of the episode was the Ueda Kana joke. I'm kind of hoping there'll be more references to roles other seiyuus have previously voiced, like Shimizu Kaori pulling a Signum.

Also, nedz moar Nabatame Hitomi.

Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto ~Natsu no Sora~ 3:
Sora's teacher is mean, rofl. C'mon, she saved lives by stopping that bus!

Chi's Sweet Home 53 ~ 57:
Chi's really cute in some episodes, but there are times where it's just annoying because of how innocent and naive she is.

I missed the way they told the story through the first half before it turned into the Popo/Neiro/Warp thing by the end. Still, it was a pretty good show.

So, Lelouch is freaking out, Suzaku's status as worst character maintained ("live on" geass being responsible for the Freya launch ironic, but nothing else), Kallen is OP, Rolo should die next ep (though I've hoped that for quite a few now) and said next episode's title is horribly straightforward.

He's all aloooone now... both "human" sides of him (looking at him as a sort of male Three Faces of Eve - Lamperouge, the maiden; vi Britannia, the mother; Zero, the Crone. But I digress) have had their siblings and love interests killed, so perhaps he'll turn more fully to his Zero persona now. But still, upcoming team of Lelouch, Kallen, and C.C. promises awesome. Also - hate @ Black Knights, being so easily convinced that he dominated you all into joining or somesuch. Don't kill Orange-kun, please :(

Welp, Mom and Pop are out of the way, with some pretty strange motivations (also, lol @ all the metaphysicbabble thrown around). Felt cheated by the timeskip a little bit but it should serve to make the ensuing xanatos gambits more believable with a month of planning, I thought V.V. being the sort-of big ebil guy was odd, and YES spiderman Suzaku + emperor Lelouch, with C.C. being snarky and depressed in the corner. :)

And I can't stop taking this series at least semi-seriously. For srs, the plot has twisted itself in a triple 1080-degree helix backflip and made lots of marketable mecha models while doing so, and I still can't put out more than a giggle when God, basically, gets geassed.

Also, I *loved* Kaguya's expression when desperately avoiding eye contact with Lelouch. So moeeeee - in a semi-disturbing way, admittedly.

I don't think he's alive. I think it's wone of those lame ending things where another protagonist is talking to the "spirit" of the person who died.

Code Geass R2 - 25: A good ending to a series that had a couple bad plot twists in the end, even though there's a lot of questions left unanswered.

Truly
2008-09-28, 03:05 PM
Not from me."Alright, it seems that the last episodewas pretty complex and out of most of the people I've talked to, a lot of people don't seems to get it. I'm going to tie up all the lose ends with this post.

The Code is the power of immortality, which C.C. has. The 98th Emperor of Britannia, Charles, has the Code. He transferred the Code to Lelouch while strangling him in episode 21. Lelouch wanted this, and he deliberately told Suzaku to not interfere.

However, the Code does not activate unless receiver dies first. This is shown when the nun kills C.C. after transferring the Code to her. Charle’s Code activated when he shot himself. Here is one of the big misconceptions that most people have: The transfer of the Code does not involve death of the transferrer. The nun was crazy and killed herself after she transferred her code. VV was injured from the battle and died. So basically, after episode 21, Lelouch had Charle’s Code (inactivated) and C.C’s contracted Geass.

When Lelouch got stabbed by Zero/Suzaku at the end, his Code was activated. What supports this is that Nunnally got Lelouch's memories when she touched her, just like Lelouch did when he touched C.C. back in Narita. The only way this could have happened is his Code activating. This pretty much confirms that he has the Code.

Unlike C.C., and Charles, who lost their Geasses because the people who contracted them died, Lelouch didn’t obtain C.C.’s Code and thus kept his Geass, while having the Code (which he obtained from Charles at the same time). Lelouch therefore has achieved CODE GEASS.

Basically, Lelouch is the person driving the cart in the last scene. He, who is now immortal, travels the brand new world he has created together with the also immortal C.C. C.C. talks to Lelouch in the end by saying: "Geass is the power of kings, it will isolate you... well, I guess thats a little wrong... eh, Lelouch?"

Now comes the second big misconception. A lot of people say C.C. was just talking to the dead like with Marianne, that's not true. She could only talk to her because of the nature of her Geass which allowed her to implant herself into the "hearts" of others. That's how she was able to talk with Marianne. Lelouch's Geass was entirely different, meaning that she could only have spoken to him if he was there. Also, the fact that the cart driver is masking his features completely supports this fact, considering the fact that Lelouch is now considered dead."

The manga is still on-going I believe and I hear the anime only follows the manga for the first few episodes or so.

As for the actual ending, I found it a nice ending. Orange-kun and Anya at the Orange Farm my favorite part of the epilogue.

aznegglover
2008-09-28, 03:59 PM
I guess that explains why he managed to Geass Charles to shoot himself before then?

And does Suzaku's Live Geass make him immortal or something. How the hell do you survive a KMF explosoin?

2008-09-28, 05:20 PM
I mainly post all my anime thoughts on SW, but I'll comment here, too, this time.

Yeah, after I first saw that guy's explanation of Code Geass, I realized Lelouch really is still alive. Everything in the entire series makes so much more sense with what he described. I wish I had understood it earlier.

The ending was absolutely marvelous, especially once you understand what really happened.

Kannagi is good and did a great job of mixing of humor into the story. I'm certainly going to continue this series. After watching this and Toradora, though, I really envy the male leads because they're high school guys and they already know how to cook well and take care of the whole house.

Chaos;head is weird but I'll try a couple more episodes to see if I like it. I don't really like gore but the plot might prove to be interesting.

I really like Soul Eater, similar to reasons for Kannagi in its nice mix of humor. Crona's (I thought Crona was female from the start but sometimes I have my doubts) a cool character and so is Ragnarok, but their fights are not that great.

Kannagi ep3: Most underrated anime of the season. Hands down. SO GOOD! I can't remember when an anime with such a great storyline has made me LOL so many times in one episode! It's serious, awesome, charming and HILARIOUS all wrapped together! OMG @ the breast scene LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

-Nagi mentions Jin's big-breast dirty magazines-
-Tsugumi looks at her own breasts, and then at Nagi's flat chest-
-Tsugumi starts doing the "FIGHT, FIGHT" stance-

Thought it was pretty bold killing what seemed to be the main characters all in the first episode. Really catching story so far. Quite bloody too. It's a shame my monitor is too dark to see most of it. Interested in how this will tie in with the continuity of the manga, seeing as how Kagura doesn't use a sword in that (anymore, so it would seem). This seems to be a prequel to the actual events of the manga. Reading that right now, pretty fun time so far. Does raise a lot of questions for how the two are related, if at all.

Quite enjoyed the creativity with the combat using the motorcycle.

Clannad After Story 6 - Great. I like this much better than the Mei episodes. The cat was pretty awesome. This is kind of like Fuko the second, but this is better and not as dragged out.

Toradora 6- Good. I don't really like the new girl much, nor the guy with glasses (can't remember their names..strange), but Taiga and Minorin (much improved from her intro episode) makes up for it.

Chaos;head 5- I finally learned a little bit about what's going on. It's still really hard to tell delusion from reality though. It's confusing but just interesting enough for me to keep watching. I really like the ending theme (maybe it's meant to cheer you up after the odd show).

RAIZOO, read the Chaos;Head visual novel. The anime is absolute garbage full of QUALITY and plot-butchering. The visual novel is one of my all-time favorites. I've already read it through twice, and I'm still addicted. Maybe I'm a tad too into it...but, regardless, the visual novel is WAYYYY better than the anime crap.

READ IT. And drop the anime.

raizoo and Zaotsu are too busy fawning over Umineko no Naku Koro ni to care about any other visual/sound/most light novels at the moment, especially when that and ChäoS;HEAd share some major similarities. I really need to start reading beyond the first volume of both NaruTaru and MariMite anyway.... And I still need to read NHK ni Youkoso! and finish Iono-sama Fanatics....

When the seagulls cry, no one survives.... (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?q7y7sadoadw) And sound affects me more than visuals since I'm actually quite picky, especially when they're called visual novels. Hence, why I have difficulty reading Kanon/CLANNAD, yet breezed through planetarian, even if the latter is quite short....

Shugo Chara!! Doki 4/Shugo Chara! 55
That girl voiced by Kagamin was full of lole. If they ever release The Heartful Song as a single for Mizuki Nana, I will laugh quite hard. Most seiyuu can't even compare to Mizuki Nana when it comes to singing, hohohoh~ Nana-san's voice acting, on the other hand....

Still can't get over how Lulu = Ryou and with Ikuto = Tomoya. I get all the more confused.

2008-11-09, 03:58 AM
Chaos;Head may be a visual novel, but it feels much more like sounds are its strong point at times. The music is very tense and creepy during several scenes, and it really creates an eerie feeling and amplifies the moment greatly. The visuals are absolutely amazing, but the sounds were definitely on the same level. Not only is there incredible music, the gore/murder sound effects are insane. Especially when...

Hazuki is carving her unborn fetus out of herself.

And many other very graphic times. :X

GAH. Just don't be lazy and stubborn and READ IT.

And now you've made me decide which one I'm targeting next. I better go get it.

This is one of the few times when I want the male lead to be with his childhood friend. It's a shame how Tsugumi is so neglected, even if she got more screen time this episode.

Soul Eater 31: I think Medusa became 10x as awesome after she came back. The new OP is pretty good, but I'm not sure if I like the way English is incorporated into the song, or the amount of it. Crona's clothes in this episode make a strong case for her being a guy. Did they really want to make it so ambiguous?

Just because only giga-lo-maniacs can see them in delusion form, DOES NOT make them transparent!!! RAGE. At least they finally made them solid when she real-booted it. Gosh dang time.

And OH SNAPS, they already showed the 2nd Melt happening. It was pretty well-done in the anime, actually, but it was far too short and didn't leave me feeling like WHAT JUST HAPPENED? like the VN did. People didn't black out, they didn't focus on how the sky became solid white first, etc etc.

Yes it is that much better. The anime has already butchered the story, and it's only gonna get worse. Everything I'm going to say from this point on is about the visual novel, so read at your own risk:

Yua:


I'll admit Yua's first arc is pretty annoying/boring, though it has some extremely creepy parts (srs gave me the heebie jeebies when she talks in her psycho tone and repeats things tons of times in different phrases *shudders*) and amusing parts. However, Yua's second arc makes her a much more likeable character. She teams up with Ban and Momo and helps them investigate. They let her in on their discovery about GE rates, and that Takumi couldn't have been the New Gen killer, like she suspected. She ends up feeling very remorseful towards Takumi because she truly does like him. Yua and Takumi's final discussion fixes the craziness she caused him earlier. They end on good terms, and she becomes an essential character to the ending (she is one of the giga-lo-maniacs, afterall).


For those of you who enjoy Chaos;Head (and don't mind being spoiled) and want to know the true story/what's really going on, I'll explain some of the most important things:


I'll reveal some mysterious characters' true identities/motives:

Shogun: Shogun is the real Takumi. When he was young (10-ish, I think), Takumi's condition began to worsen rapidly to the point where he had to live in a hospital. He has the special ability to bring delusions he creates to reality (called "real-booting"). He's the strongest giga-lo-maniac* in existence. He's the only one that can real-boot delusions without the use of a Di-Sword. He has extremely strong power over delusions. Realizing the danger the world is in (which I'll talk about in a bit), the real Takumi used his immense power to real-boot one last delusion: an alternate version of himself. This real-booted delusion becomes the Takumi that is the main character. Since the real Takumi's powers are so immense, he was able to create this new Takumi as a giga-lo-maniac himself. That is why the main Takumi can see delusions and Di-Swords.

However, by creating this new Takumi, he lessened his life span even farther. Every time the main Takumi creates a delusion, it hurts the real Takumi and shortens his life. If the main Takumi were to obtain his Di-Sword (referred to as "awakening"), it would probably kill the real Takumi due to the immense power. The real Takumi wants his alternate self to awaken, so that he is powerful enough to stop what is about to happen. Rimi, though, does not want him to awaken because she cares for the real Takumi a great deal (not gonna bother explaining why, unless someone is curious). In the end, Rimi goes off to try and stop what is going to happen (again, I'll explain in a bit) by herself, so that the main Takumi doesn't need to awaken. She is unable to, though... Long story short, the main Takumi obtains his Di-Sword (which is EPIC) and realizes what he must do.

* Giga-lo-maniacs are people that have power over delusions (see and create them). They can see them even when they haven't been real-booted. Giga-lo-maniacs always end up obtaining a Di-Sword when they have to endure an extremely tragic event or prolonged torture/stress. It's only obtained once the giga-lo-maniac truly needs it. Once they have it, they can real-boot it whenever they want to use in reality (though they often choose to just leave it in delusion form). It becomes their strongest ability and their literal savior.

Hazuki: AKA = DEMON NURSE FROM HELL. She's the true New Gen murderer. Yeah, I'm frickin' serious. She carved her OWN unborn fetus from her womb and sewed it into that STILL living man. Holy frick that was disgusting, especially with the all-too-real sound effects. DANG. She is freakin' psycho. She committed the murders herself. She SCOUPED the BRAINS out of that doctor with a SPOON. I am not kidding. LOL I was like, ......SWEET MERCY! :O!!!!

Oh, and here's the best part: You know Takumi's online friend (that he chats with in IRC and plays Ensue with), Grim? Guess what? THAT'S HAZUKI! Ever wonder why Grim always knows about the New Gen murders like right after they happen? Ever wonder why he always has access to the links before others? CAUSE GRIM IS HAZUKI, AND SHE'S THE ONE COMMITTING THE MURDERS. I nearly crapped myself. If you were paying very close attention in the first chapter, they even foreshadow this. Grim says, "Yeah, the murders have all been happening in your neighborhood. lol" The thing is, Takumi's never told Grim where he lives. Takumi didn't even realize it until later, though. LOL Frickin' craziness.

You'll be happy to know Hazuki ends up gouging her own throat out when Takumi uses his mental powers to reveal to everyone her memories and thoughts of the murders. <3

Suwa: AKA = DEMON DETECTIVE FROM HELL. LOL. I never saw this coming, not from a mile away. DANG. Suwa is secretly working for NOZOMI and ends up revealing his true nature at the end. He shoots Ban to death (;_; ;_; ;_; ;_;), shoots and kills Sena's father and uses those same cross daggers (as seen in New Gen murder #3) to pin Takumi to the wall (BEST SCENE EVER). However, when he's just about to kill Takumi, Takumi uses his powers again to switch their bodies. Suwa ends up being the one with all the daggers in him. LOL He bleeds to death pinned to the wall. EPIC.

I CAN NEVER LOOK AT SUWA THE SAME. Everytime he smiles in the anime, I picture his EVIL smirk in the VN. ;_; ;_;

Norose: President of NOZOMI corp. AKA = the true villain of the series. Guess what? He also happens to be one of the strongest giga-lo-maniacs ever! HECK YES. His Di-Sword is a massive scissor-like cross blade (he crucifies Nanami and Rimi on it, even). Norose is using the NOZOMI corp to develop his ultimate machine, the NOAH II. It's a machine that basically has the power of God. He created it by using several "code" samples from giga-lo-maniacs, including Rimi, Yua and Ayase. To make it perfect, he needs a "code" sample from Takumi.

The first time he tested it, the 1st Melt occurred (the small earthquake that killed 8 people before the beginning of the series; it's only mentioned a few times). He tests it again later, causing the 2nd Melt. The 2nd Melt was a much larger earthquake that destroyed all electronic things (wipes all info from all computers in Shibuya) and kills over 300 people. At the end of Chapter 9, he uses it one last time in its near-perfect state and triggers the 3rd Melt. The 3rd Melt was the largest earthquake they have ever experienced. It destroys almost all of Shibuya and kills near 10,000 people (seriously). The NOAH II, if it were to reach its perfect state, would be able to control every single person on the world and rewrite what they see, feel, hear, etc. to anything Norose desires. He'd essentially become God.

The final fight between Norose and Takumi (epic beyond words) takes place in front of the NOAH II and is very, VERY bloody and full of delusions (the NOAH II creates them to defend itself like crazy). Norose is the only one who has control over it. He's raping Takumi silly until Takumi uses Norose himself to destroy the NOAH II (literally throws him into it lol). In the BAD end of Chaos;Head, the NOAH II's destruction causes the complete and total annihilation of everything, leaving only Takumi and Rimi. The BAD end ends with Rimi using her Di-Sword to kill Takumi. :x


Okay, so, I didn't even get close to explaining everything this incredible series has to offer. I merely gave most of the meaty chunks of deliciousness to get you insanely curious. :D I'd be happy to explain anything anyone wants, so feel free to ask for moar or explanations of parts. I'll end by leaving you with some of the CGs in the game from the CG Library (unlocked by completing the story). I'll give ya some of my very favorite scenes:

Let's start with a Di-Sword showcase + a few epic scenes:


http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/8581/senalh8.jpg

This CG is from the scene where Sena real-boots her Di-Sword and uses it destroy a porter's portable NOAH device.



http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/6229/kozueau3.jpg

This CG is from a flashback when Kozue used her Di-Sword to threaten an old man (Sena's father).



http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/5284/nanamiww7.jpg

This CG is from the scene where Norose has crucified Nanami, pushing her through intense physical and mental stress. This is the scene where she obtains her Di-Sword. It's so sexy; one of my favorites. <3



http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/5852/ayasete3.jpg

This CG is from a bad delusion of Takumi's where Ayase real-booted her Di-Sword and started cutting apart Daisuke. Poor womanizer. ;_; lol



http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/5340/senarimilf3.jpg

This is a CG from the scene where Sena tried killing Takumi, once she realizes he's the one behind the beginning of all this tragedy (he really is, btw). Rimi reveals her Di-Sword for the first time and defends Takumi. Sadly there isn't really any good CG of Rimi's dual Di-Swords, but they are like two circular handles (one in each hand) with wing-like blades on them.



http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/456/yuagh0.jpg

This CG is from the scene where Yua finally obtains her Di-Sword. Norose sent a porter equipped with a portable NOAH device and created the delusion of her dead twin sister trying to kill her. Yua overcame it and kills the porter with her Di-Sword. Again, there is very little CG of Yua's Di-Sword, but it's a very long black, almost scythe-like blade with an intricate handle.



http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/1287/takumidz3.jpg

This CG is from the scene where Takumi finally realizes his true power and destiny and obtains his Di-Sword to defeat Hazuki and the other porters in the area. Truly amazing scene. Gives me goosebumps thinking about it. <3 Such a gay looking Di-Sword, though. rofl


Slightly graphic images follow, open at your own risk:


http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/4503/norosent7.jpg

This CG is from the insanely epic final fight between Norose and Takumi. There is tragically no good CG of Norose's full Di-Sword, but I will go back to Chapter 10 and get a good picture of it if someone really wants to see it (trust me it's godly).



http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/8596/hazukiun4.jpg

This CG is from the memory of Hazuki as she is carving her unborn fetus from her very own womb. She takes great pleasure in it and even laughs during the process.

.............yeah.



http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/6664/suwale5.jpg

This CG is from one of the most twisted and EPIC scenes where Suwa is throwing dagger after dagger into Takumi, torturing him and enjoying every moment of it. I can still remember the sound as each dagger pierces Takumi's flesh.

Those CG's look pretty good and not nearly as graphic as I thought they'd be (unless these are the mild ones? Hopefully not because I'm not a fan of gore). I prefer no spoilers so I'd probably just give it a try. It seems pretty long though, so I'd have to make time for it.

Also, I think I understand why you said there's story butchering, since the anime is halfway done and I don't think they have even given a hint about those bad guys yet.

And keep in mind I've only been sharing the CGs from the game. :x Most of the imagery takes place above the text, as the story is going on. The music + sound effects for this game are definitely not for the weak of heart. They are highly graphic and very realistic.


I'm not kidding. I'm talking scenes as gruesome as a mother (Sena's mother) eating her rotting fetus. A mother (Hazuki) gouging her unborn fetus from her very womb. Five people jumping from a building and exploding into a mass of blood and gore so thick, you can't tell them apart. Etc, etc...


Yeah, the anime has done MASSIVE butchering already. They mainly highlight only the biggest stuff. They shave off a LOT of explanation, backstory, character building and entire events altogether. And worse than that, they've already changed a few things, too. Another bad thing is that the anime only shows either the good or the bad delusion (and often skips over those scenes completely). The only way you get to see all the good + bad delusions Takumi has is to play the VN through twice.

It is very long, think of it as no different than reading a very long novel. It took me about 15 hours, and I'm a pretty fast and well-practiced reader, to read through it once. It's gonna take you around 30 if you want to read through it twice (which I highly recommend), so that you can see all the differences between the good and bad delusions, plus the different endings.

The official patch isn't done yet, but the anti-fail beta patch is more than good enough. It only doesn't translate a few lines in a couple scenes and has very few glitches.

It shouldn't be hard to find at all.

Is it really that much better than the anime?

I've been wanting to get it but I've been debating as to whether or not I should wait for the anime to finish. I really don't want the anime to be ruined for me, especially as it got kinda good last episode.

tl;dr: Is it really worth playing the VN before finishing the anime?

GAHAHAHAHAAHAH
WTH? OMG, I can't stop laughing. LOOOOL

What the HECK JUST HAPPENED? They've officially decided to screw the story and MAKE THEIR OWN NEW ONE! WTH was up with that pink digger? LOL That never even happened. LOL Sena and Kozue NEVER publicly destroyed Porters together. OMG! And Norose DEFINITELY NEVER saw them use their Di-Swords. WTH? Now in the anime NOZOMI knows about Sena and Kozue. WTH? WOOOOW

And I saw in the ep8 preview that Sena and Norose were fighting with their Di-Swords. WTHHHH?! THEY NEVER FIGHT. And Norose doesn't reveal his Di-Sword until the VERY end of the series. LOL WOOOOWNESS. I can not wait to see how the anime changes the story now. LOL The ending is going to be WAYY different if they keep this up. TAHAHAHAHA!

Oh, and Dark Rebirth is the worst sub group EVER. I wish you guys realized how much they were mistranslating and completely butchering. WTH is a Gigalomaniax? LOL Last time I checked they were Giga-lo-maniacs. What are G-errates? ROFL Last I checked they were GE Rates. Oh wow. GG, Dark Rebirth, you are making this hilarious mock series even more priceless.

And let's not forget the FANTASTIC QUALITY! Hoooooo! Let's see how ugly we can make the characters! HECK YEAH!

wtp happened in Chaos;Head 7. The episode starts out with Ayase commiting suicide :f6:. Why was she up there, and why'd she want to kill herself, and what are those dudes from NOZOMI talking about. I kind of understand how the delusions become reality, but what are they trying to accomplish? Why does time freeze whenever they bring out their Di-Swords? Why was everyone at school all of a sudden interested in Takumi? Why is the city all of a sudden going into chaos after that earthquake thing? Who payed those guys to beat up Takumi?


wow i have alot of questions. Those are just the ones I remember to ask.

*cracks knuckles*

The anime is much more confusing than the story actually is because they've been shaving off like almost all the back story and supplemental story. It's pathetic, really.

Ayase's been going through a really hard time. Her life has been messed up since she was born. She used to be enslaved by NOZOMI and they ran lots of experiments on her. They're the reason she has her Di-Sword, and she's one of the first code samples of a Giga-lo-maniac they obtained (for their Noah device). The people at @chan discovered she used to be mental patient (that mental hospital was just a cover NOZOMI used) and Phantasm really took a blow because of that. The police have been after and suspecting Ayase of being the New-Gen murderer because of her songs' lyrics.

And now she is starting to doubt the prophecy she's always believed in is even going to come true. With the accumulation of all these events, she decides she'd rather escape from it all than endure what she fears is going to happen. However, Takumi real-booted his delusion of her falling into a flowerbed and saved her life (the anime did a horrible job at showing this). As long as the anime doesn't cut it out, you should find out more about Ayase when she's in the hospital. A lot of very intense and informational events occur while she's hospitalized.

---

Those dudes from NOZOMI are talking about their Noah device, which will soon become Noah II (a god-like machine). NOZOMI basically controls a crapton of corporations, businesses, powerful people, etc. They're always controlling things behind the scene (even things you may not suspect...). With Norose heading the creation of Noah, he's been manipulating everything for his own selfish schemes. NOZOMI has been extracting code samples from the brainwaves of giga-lo-maniacs (Rimi, Ayase, Yui...) and using them to develop a machine that uses those powers.

By creating a device like this, their goal is create a new "reality" for Japan and eventually the world. With Noah II, they'll be able to control what everyone hears, feels, tastes, smells and even sees. Essentially, they can rewrite the world's five senses and become God themselves. They can control anything they want.

---

Time doesn't freeze when they create or real-boot their Di-Swords. I dunno where you got that.

---

Everyone at school was interested in Takumi because they had seen him talking to Ayase earlier that week (and she never talks to anyone). They assumed they were a couple or whatever. When she tried committing suicide, they thought Takumi had something to do with it.

However, none of that actually happens in the real story. The anime made all of that up...which is retarded. I figure they made that scene because they plan on taking out a scene which should be coming up. Something happens between Shogun and Takumi that gets him national attention. After that, everyone mocks him and picks on him. The anime is changing the story big time now, so I doubt they are even going to have that. Sadly, the anime doesn't even focus much on the events of Shogun and New-Gen cases. The anime is trying to make it all about NOZOMI as quickly as possible, which is terribly hurting the story.

---

The city is entering a state of chaos because that earthquake (the 2nd Melt) was created by Noah. Shibuya itself has a naturally high GE (gravitational error) rate which causes people to act on their emotions or desires much more greatly. It's why so many young people are drawn to Shibuya seeking fun or happiness. NOZOMI has been manipulating and raising the GE rates to accomplish their goals. Noah itself greatly spikes these rates, causing people to act irrationally.

---

Who paid those guys to beat Takumi up?

That's honestly a good question. It's never explicitly revealed who did it, and at first I thought it was Shogun. However, when it's later revealed that

Suwa

is an insane psychopath that's been corrupted by NOZOMI, I thought it might have been him. So I'm torn between those two. I still feel it makes the most sense that it was Shogun (since his goal from the beginning has been to get Takumi to awaken), but at the same time I find that unlikely because Shogun wouldn't have risked going out in public like that. I decided it was the guy in the spoiler, but I'm not sure of his reasons other than to have fun. Perhaps the anime will explain it in a way that fits their own story best.

For those who played Chaos;Head VN and seen end A and B and as a response to Felix

It was indeed Suwa who paid the thugs. It's explained in the B ending where he experiences all of the new gen cases. Also, from what I can tell, it wasn't Shogun who causes Takumi to experience national attention (Assuming you're talking about the scene where he goes up to the roof and is forced to find his D-Sword, fails, and runs away). I assume it was Suwa who did that because of the Mask, and how he was able to escape through the barrage of reporters. Also, Shogun tells Takumi "I don't do cosplay". Also, I doubt Shogun would've cut his own sister's hand off.

Now, after finishing the VN getting almost all of the CG, I really wish the anime would've stuck to the VN more. I found myself actually understanding everything that wasn't explained in the anime, and I really think that they should've stuck to the VN, even if it required more episodes.

Now, after finishing the VN getting almost all of the CG, I really wish the anime would've stuck to the VN more. I found myself actually understanding everything that wasn't explained in the anime, and I really think that they should've stuck to the VN, even if it required more episodes.

...I don't remember it explicitly saying it was Suwa. I did the B ending first, so it was longer ago. Can you gimme a screencap?

Yes, but that's confusing to me. I assumed it was Suwa, too, due to the Darth Spider (or w/e haha) mask and his obsession with that franchise (as he says and proves later when that helmet is present again during when he murders Ban). But then that led me to wonder a lot of things. Is it truly Suwa doing those things related to Takumi or is it Shogun manipulating him? The things Suwa does only help accomplish Shogun's goals, as he states and apologizes later for (saying he just wanted to make Takumi awaken). And if it wasn't Shogun, then really how much did Shogun do to provoke Takumi? Not much. I'd like to hear your opinions on that matter.

And yeah, that's a given. The anime is terrible compared to the VN. I'm playing through Chapter 6 again right now to check what else they cut out from this episode. I TOTALLY forgot and didn't even notice that they cut out one of my very favorite scenes!!!

If you remember that scene, you know what I'm talking about. Was it not insanely creepy and intense? LOL OMG I'm still haunted by that ringtone and thinking, Oh...OH NO TAKUMI! Then when he was like, "The box is heavy..." I was like, OH CRAP IT'S HER HAND!!! Seriously screwed up.

It really makes me wonder where the anime is going, especially with the preview showing that Norose is going to be using his Di-Sword already in ep8.


Oh, and I totally want to chat with you sometime if you'd be up for it. No one ever wants to thoroughly discuss this series with me. ;_;

MOAR thoughts:


k so finished chapter 6 another time. I paid very close attention to every detail of the rooftop incident, and it brings up some questions:

It would be very strange if that was Shogun. Shogun would know Takumi has the same powers as he does. The way he seems curious makes it definitely seem like it's Suwa. I think I neglected Suwa far too much in my reads through the story. He seemed more like a puppet to me than anything. I'm confused, though.

How does Suwa know of Shogun? And how does Suwa know Shogun is in a wheelchair?

How closely together are Hazuki and Suwa working? I know they're both working for NOZOMI in some way, but I still don't get some things. Hazuki is the New-Gen murderer, but isn't Suwa responsible for some of the murders, as well? Since Hazuki is actually Takumi's friend "Grim" she could have known about Shogun, but that still doesn't explain how they know he's in a wheelchair. Did I miss something where Hazuki could have known this and told Suwa?

I think as I read through the story, I just got an assumption in my mind and accepted that. But now the more I think about things, the more I can see them going different ways. I would REALLY like to know more about Suwa and all his true intentions. I think he's the most mysterious character in the entire series.

Chaos;Head ep7

What....the...hell? They really did cut out that scene! Nanami doesn't come to his house to explain the earthquake, it's supposed to be done by cell! Gah. They get rid of some of the best parts, and add in crap like the digger. By the way, when Takumi's comp was in BSOD, he made much more commotion in the VN than he did in the Anime. I was surprised to hear him, almost in a calm manner, say "I'm finished".

Thoughts about anime and visual novel:

The begining isn't supposed to be about the characters and such. It's really supposed to be about "shogun", and how everything is effecting him. NOZUMI(or whatever) isn't the main plot under AFTER Takumi really understands what's going on. I still love the scene where Takumi get's his Di-Sword. The main theme(off-vocal) plays, and it's just badass. Although that scene was followed by the ever creepy Hazuki scenes. *Shudders*

Felix, I do remember that scene, and damn, I didn't know it would be her hand. It was just, shocking, to see that after he opened his eyes. It made the email make more sense though.

My Suwa theory:
Suwa is part of NOZOMI, and thus, is trying to get Takumi to awaken because they need his awakened form to get his CODE sample. So he used his mask and pretended to be Shogun (Which he apparently knew from NOZOMI, judging from the time in the chat when "Grim"(Hazuki) stated "Hi Lord Shogun" in the chat.") Shogun really didn't do much, but I think it's because he wasn't able to do much. He needed Takumi to awaken, but he couldn't use too much of his power to enable him to awaken or else he would've died. I wasn't too shocked when it was revealed that they were both Takumi, especially when they foreshadow it in the VN (Which I loved, how they had the beat everytime something was revealed. It made me jump on certain occasions.). Although I was relieved when it was shown that Takumi II wouldn't die when the real one did. Although being in a coma for a year, wow.
http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee288/ashrua/ITWASNTHIM.jpg

In all, I love how the VN foreshadowed and told stuff, and it had it's appropriate moments of songs. Still, "Let me pass" scares the hell out of me. Dunno why.

I'd be willing to chat whenever if you want. IMO, Chaos; Head is an awesome series, although the anime version is seriously lacking in presentation.

...Oh frick-

I totally missed that line. That explains quite a few things.

However, I am still not quite sure how tied together Hazuki and Suwa are. What's with the scene where he comes and asks her for Takumi's file? They were alone, so if they knew each other, why did they act like they didn't? What's with them?

I know they are both puppets to NOZOMI (especially seeing as Hazuki is a Porter later)...but what the heck? It's pretty clear which murders Hazuki committed and which Suwa committed - but what was the point? I understand that almost all of the murders affect Takumi in some way, some more directly than others, but were Hazuki and Suwa doing a type of planning together or simply taking orders from Norose/NOZOMI?

I think what I'm trying to get at it is... Was NOZOMI's plan really much more deep than the VN explicitly explains? I think the VN makes it so a lot about Suwa + Hazuki has to be figured out on our own, don't you? I'm also quite curious how two young people like Suwa and Hazuki could have been so corrupted by NOZOMI...

---

Honestly, I wasn't that surprised when they revealed Shogun was the real Takumi, either. I was kinda like, The heck, how? But then it quickly made sense to me and fit very well.

---

Another thing I'm wondering: Takumi put Nanami's hand in his fridge right after that incident occurred. Rimi was the one that got it and brought it back to Shogun, yes? How'd she know to? Just by chance of going there and looking? Shogun somehow being aware of what happened and telling her to? What? Did I miss something again >_>?

Thanks :f2:, that clears things up a bit.

At about 9:30-9:40 he says "Dqns are targetting me now". What are Dqns?

When the Giga-Lo-Maniacs are holding their Di-Swords, are they just delusions? and once they "real-boot" them, that's when they can use them to fight. As delusions, Takumi can still see them i think. They can also use the di-sword to real-boot other things around them; which, Takumi can do without a di-sword. Is this how it works?

I re-watched parts of episode 7, and I guess time didn't freeze. It just looks funny when Kozupii is slashing at those people while they're just standing there.

In the VN, he often calls people delinquents. That's most likely what Dark Rebirth (FAIL) meant by "dqns."

Yes, the anime makes them transparent-like, even though they aren't supposed to be. The anime does that to let you know they are in delusion form. When a delusion is real-booted, it's reality. It truly exists and everyone can see it, feel it, w/e. Giga-lo-maniacs can see delusions even before they've been real-booted, so yes.

Di-Swords are simply a shortcut for Giga-lo-maniacs to real-boot or create "errors" as Sena calls them; a method to achieve that -1. Takumi's powers are much greater than that, and you'll find out why later (assuming you haven't been reading all of our delicious spoilers).

---


I know, the timing for him asking for the medical file and then the rooftop incident occurring are like PERFECT...but ;_;? Would his medical record reveal that? I thought the real Takumi (Shogun) has been hidden away? Aw screw it, why am I even questioning this? NOZOMI probably knows.

Okay, but I still wanna know why Hazuki and Suwa don't know each other.

In all honestly, I really don't know what the events were supposed to do. Some did have a direct relation to Takumi, but many of them just kinda happened.

I know in B's ending it's explained that Suwa and Hazuki were a couple by the "Church of divine light" or something, which I believe was just NOZOMI, if I recall. I'll have to check out Grim's logs and stuff to see if I can figure out a direct connection to why the new-gen events were required to happen.

I believe they act like they don't know each other because they feel "God's Gaze" aka Shogun watching them. By the way, that is how I think Rimi knew. Shogun is Takumi, so he's going to know what he does and where he places things. By the way, I'm curious to know if we're getting off-topic now, considerin' we're solely talkin' about the VN now.

Screw getting off topic! People never like to discuss anime much anyways!

Yeah that "church" was the research company that was started by Sena's father, no? I know at the least it was just another cover for NOZOMI. That "church" is what did all the early testing on giga-lo-maniacs and Sena's mom. Suwa and Hazuki were in it? It would make sense if that's what got them so corrupted, but I don't remember the part talking about them in it.

Group Dive: I still don't understand a lot about how this one happened. I wish I knew what went on up there. It involves Yui's twin sister, so the connection there is obvious. And the wheelchair tie-in obviously relates to driving Takumi to the edge. But still it's kinda random feeling...

Pregnant Man: I don't see how this one affects Takumi, besides the gross factor. Perhaps it was just to show THAT HAZUKI IS FRICKIN' INSANE. Lol ;_;

Staking: The one is also sort of confusing. It's pretty obvious Suwa did this one, right? Or was it Hazuki because she had that drawing of it? I still don't know. Suwa's trademark is those cross daggers, but Hazuki knew more about this murder. Help! And of course Takumi deluded seeing Rimi doing it... The effect it had on him was obvious, as it was the first murder that directly dragged him into the plan.

Vampire: Pretty random... It tied in really well with Hazuki and those blood packet things, but still didn't affect him that much. *shrugs* Maybe you have a better take on this one.

Brainless: VERY OBVIOUS this was directed at Takumi. She freakin' removed the brain of the one man Takumi really felt comfortable with.

*can't remember @chan name*: This one was Suwa's doing, right? The three guys that were paid by Suwa to beat up Takumi got impaled. This one affected Takumi because he recognized them.

Am I forgetting any? I don't wanna go back right now.

Good point about that. Shogun's gaze is on Takumi a lot of the times, so I'm sure he saw him put the hand in there. I never considered that was why Suwa and Hazuki played dumb about knowing each other. Hm....

I just went through the B Ending. All it states is that they did it together to push Takumi to his Pshycological limit, so they could gather his CODE sample. Also, by pushing him out of his shell so quickly, the real Takumi would be forced to come out, and they would get his CODE sample.

You're missing the Tasty Hand =)

Also, in case you didn't know, the group dive was caused by Suwa creating an illusion of zombies, and making them dive off. At the last second, Shogun began watching, and said a phrase, which caused one of the divers, to suddenly say "Whose eyes are those eyes". The video, also created by Suwa, was made by NOZOMI technology. However, he couldn't recall the backdrop of the rooftop. So he used an image to make it more realistic. Little did he know that the image was 5 years ago, when the tower was still being built. Which is why Ban was a threat.

My replies take a bit of time because I'm running though the game as I type.

Oh, regardin' the relation of the staking, I really can't decypher this well, so you take a look.
B Ending Scene

A dark road&, with few people on it&, located away from the heart of the city&.

As I walked down it&, I spotted a human figure coming my way&. Since the road was narrow&, we would have to angle ourselves sideways to pass one another&.

But I went cold when I saw the appearance of the figure walking toward me&.
It was that Darth Spider man again&.

We crossed paths&.
Darth Spider displayed no particular reaction&.

My heart went into a tumult&.
An emotion resembling obsession rose at the back of my brain&.

A nasty old asshole had been hitting on my woman&. It pissed me off&. I wanted to kill him&.

That feeling&, truly coming out of left field&, drove me into motion&.

The face of "my woman" was vague in my memory&. I couldn't recall her clearly&. It was doubtful that she even existed in the first place&.

Despite that&, the face of the "nasty old asshole who'd been hitting on my woman" appeared vividly at the back of my mind&.

I'd seen that face before&.
He was the victim of the "staking" incident&.
-----
My memory leapt ahead&, and I was in a familiar&, dark&, narrow alleyway&.
It was the scene of the "staking&."

And in front of my eyes was the victim who'd died there&.
I was tightly clenching the aging man's neck&.

His body convulsed violently&, and bubbles frothed from his mouth&, and his eyes rolled back in his head&.

I went faintly cold&, tasting the sensation of someone's life disappearing in my own hands&.

At last&, the man's body stopped moving&.
-----
After confirming this&, I--Komaeda&, who'd carried out the actual homicide in this case--took my hands off his neck&, kicked his fallen corpse once in the side&, and began to make my departure&.
-----
"Aaah&.&.&.&."

Hearing a voice&, I turned around to look&, and the man who should've been dead had risen&, the whites of his eyes showing&.
His hands reached for me&.
-----
With a shriek&, I punched him down&.
But though his movements themselves were sluggish&, he kept rising&, without fail&.
I seized his neck again&.

In the same way as before&, more powerfully than before&, putting my whole body and spirit into it&, I strangled him as hard as I could&.
With enough strength to snap the bones in his neck&.

He soon stopped moving again&.
This time&, I put my ear to his mouth&, making sure he wasn't breathing&, then let go of him&.
For some time&, I watched over him&.
-----
And then&, for some reason--
The man who should've been dead jerked again&, his body quivering&, and began to get up&.

His expression itself remained absolutely unchanged; he had the face of one who was dead&.
Yet he rose and approached me&.

As I started to retreat&, terrified&, my foot trod on something&.

When I looked down at my foot with a start&, a huge number of cross-shaped stakes were scattered across the roadway&.

A phrase from one of Phantasm's songs played at the back of my brain&.
"Strike the stake&, strike the stake"

I had to drive a stake into the monster in front of me&, and stop him from moving&. If not&, I'd be in trouble&.

Controlled by that sense of danger&, I hurled the rising man back against the wall&.
And picked up a stake&.

I didn't know when it had happened&, but my other hand was already holding a hammer--

Actually, I think Suwa created a dullision and did something, so the person arrested really did commit the crime, just under EXTREME psycological pressure from Suwa.

Chaos;Head 7: What the hell happened? (No need to answer, btw) And what's with the pink digger? It's really confusing how the people just go back to walking as if nothing happened. Do they just forget that delusion as soon as they are out of the influence? I've really got to make some progress on the novel (only finished chapter 1). Hopefully that will actually clear it up.

Soul Eater 32: Excalibur owns. Hero fails. Finally got to see Excalibur in action, even if the main part got cut out. Disappointing end though.

This series is terrific and it seems like it's going to keep it up the rest of the way.

Lol. What do you get congratulated for? I must say I have enjoyed seeing the chibi explanations in the anime though.

dammit how do i get the VN for chaos;head. I know nothing about torrents or anything :f4:.

I'm in basically the same situation. I want to play it now >_> but none of my trusted torrent/direct download sites have it. I'm rl desperate here.

And on a non-Chaos;HEAd note... ToraDora 08 was really really cute! And I'm just now picking up Kuroshitsuji, which is also great!

Gundam 00 S2 Ep8
Wow, I am speechless after that episode... Absolutely no gundam action at all, but it was still awesome. Lmao at Millenia asking if Marie and Allelujah were lovers.
So it seems that Tieria is a female and Regene is a male. Louise seems to have the same split personality problem Marie/Soma had. Can't wait to see what the O-Riser is.

Tieria is a male, dude. HAHAHA That was just a disguise, as per suggestion of Sumeragi's plan. Good show. Lol

Nice avatar btw, MISTA BUSHIDO!!!

If they had given him a voice similar to Lockon’s it would have been better. But i just think his voice is totally out of place. Perhaps i have been tainted by watching subs.

This arc was particularly boring. Though would it be right to call it an arc when it's two episodes long? Anyways, foreshadowing with the light orbs. Good end plx.

Also, I'm about mid-way through Chapter 5 of Chaos;Head and it is vastly superior to the anime.

Kannagi 8: Lol, that guy Daitetsu has as many delusions as Taku.

Soul Eater: :(. Tadashi got C&Ded, almost exactly the same way as Fiel did..(baseless argument but can't really fight back). Where am I going to get Soul Eater subs now?

Well, I had a bit of free time today, and managed to finish chapter 3 of Chaos;Head. I must say that Shogun looks a lot creepier than the one in the anime. The anime one just looks like a regular old guy, although you still don't want to be near him. Not to mention, the features in the VN like his voice and figure is much better foreshadowing. It was a long chapter though.

I picked up Kurosh'itsuji a few days ago and now I'm all caught up. Glad I picked it up! Sebastian is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters of all time. *_* Let's review:

1) He's a demon.
2) He's a butler.
3) He's insanely awesome.
4) HE LOVES CATS.

Gosh DANG! Best character of the season, at least. I can't wait for this series to develop more. I love its dark aspect, and I wish it'd focus on it more rather than all the humor (though it's funny sometimes).

Kurosh'itsuji ep8: I'm not sure how I feel about this new demon dog character, but we'll see. And find some clothes. ;_;
The conversation between Sebastian and Angela at the very end was some serious foreshadowing. There's much more to Angela than meets the eye.

I just finished it last night, and ya the anime couldn ever come close to it. I also got the prologue :f4:

I don't understand why Rimi still wanted to kill Taku after the battle. I know the reason she didn't want him to awaken was because it would take away from Shogun's life, but since Shogun was already going to die/was dead, I don't see any reason for her still killing Taku.

Toradora 9: I think they pulled off the serious Kushieda really well this episode. And did she reject him? Anyway, Taiga continues to provide more lol's and hints of her preference. Kitamura is just weird...even more so than Kushieda.

Soul Eater 34: Anonymous is probably Tadashi. Anyway, this was a nice episode following the odd way of finalizing the team concept in the last episode. Mifune totally owned Sid + Azusa together. Sid is such an odd zombie. Lol @ Kim rejecting Ox. I don't recall seeing her before the last episode, but her character design seems familiar. Then again, most characters do. Maka's earmuffs look so cool on her..

Chaos;Head 8- Wow, just wow. They're going in a completely different direction than the VN. They actually fight Norose even before the 3rd Melt? It was a pretty good fight and all, but I never thought they would turn away from the actual story so much.

Oh and now I finally know who Norose was talking to when he said "I would have never thought you were a Giga-lo-maniacs", in his office.

It twassss Nanami :f6:

It just seems like the anime is being rushed to tell the story. Like whoever is pulling the strings is saying "You get 15 episodes to tell a 20 hours story". So many key details are being kept out.



Kannagi 9 - HILARIOUS!! my favorite episode so far. The beginning was a bit wierd for me to watch, with the whole homo thing, but wow that was a good episode. Zange is by far my favorite char in this anime.

You make me giggle. Tahaha

Chaos;Head ep8: LOL Official story change GOOOOO!!! And yay for MOAR Dark-Rebirth FAILsubs and QUALITY from Madhouse. Oh lawds.

The fight between Norose wasn't bad, though, with the decent music playing during parts of it. Still, WTH? Let's get rid of one of the best parts about Shogun and instead make up a fight scene that doesn't even happen!!!! YES, this will be BRILLIANT!

I'm actually glad there's only 4 episodes left (it's 12 episodes, you know). Let this torture end!

Gundam 00 S2 ep9: ALI AL SAACHEZ! HECK YES YOU ARE AWESOME. So let's review:

1) Ali kicking Gundam butt, as usual
2) Graham about to get UPGRADED
3) Revive flaunting his stuff in the Gadessa, wat
4) Flashbacks to childhood days, revealing young Sumeragi
5) Setsuna about to get UPGRADED

BRACE FOR IMPACT.

Kannagi ep9: LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Tsugumi has witnessed the glory of hentai! Takako further proves she is the best character EVER!
And let's not forget: Jin x Daitetsu, IT'S CANON

Then the episode goes from Tsugumi spotting Jin's manhood, to sharing embarrassing stories and pictures with Nagi and Zange! LOL Oh goodness that was great. But there's MOAR! It all ends with Jin becoming a playtoy for both Tsugumi and Zange!

Why on why can't you stay on this awesome course, Kannagi? ;_;

Chaos;Head ep9: At least they're back to the condensed actual story again, rather than completely making stuff up. Oh well. This anime does nothing for me. They're portraying the story in a very watered down way. You don't get near as drawn into the characters, you don't get to experience anywhere near the amount of suffering Takumi really goes through, etc... When they reveal the true motives behind Suwa and Hazuki, it's not even going to be shocking since they've focused very little on their events.

~_~ Whatever.
