Chaos; Head – Episode 8

Saku — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 05:02:21 +0000

What an awesome episode this week and I just couldn’t believe that I re-watched this episode 4 times already ^^;;. I guess I just love this episode little bit too much than the others and while watching this episode, I was thinking which girl is my favorite. I had a hard time choosing between Rimi and Kozupi. Yua is out of the question since I really don’t like her and she annoys me greatly. Among the two, I guess my vote goes for Rimi ^^. As usual, be aware of chance of spoilers before you proceed this episode summary as I don’t guarantee that there will be no spoiler at all.

At school, Kozupi tried her best to persuade Takumi to join their group to infiltrate Nozomi Corp and destroy the source of recent disturbances. Crying is Kozupi’s best weapon to persuada Takumi to join ^^;;.

Chief Ban and his assistant, Suwa, seemed to be investigating the weird occurences around the area further although I think he seems to know to know too much already. Guess what usually happens to people who know too much…… Yep, he will die soon ^^;;.

At some other place, Shogun and Rimi were seen together. What are their relationships ? how do they know each other? are they friends or foes ? There are still many questions yet to be answered.

Gigalomaniax trio gets into Nozomi Corp. easily thanks to D-sword which enables to disguise as some of the executives. After some searching around the building, they finally found Noah II, a machine which can replicate Gigalomaniax’s ability.

Of course, they are not getting away that easily since Norose, president of Nozomi Tech, were waiting for them. The next scenes are purely sword-slashing between Norose and Kozupi + Sena + Ayase while Takumi was doing nothing most of the time ^^;

Ayase to the rescue!!!

Sena: Takumi is mine!!!!
Kozupi: NO!!!, he is mine!!!!

Thoughts

Rimi knows Shogun ? wow what in the world is going on. I totally didn’t expect this at all. Rimi seemed to be too calm during the earthquake because she knows what’s going on but didn’t expect her to know Shogun. I wonder who is the mystery girl at the end of the episode but from the frog keychain thingy, it should be obvious who she is. I enjoyed this episode a lot and it’s the reason I watched it 4 times already ^^;;. The fight scenes between gigalomaniax and Norose are just awesome.

I just thought up an interesting poll. Real Booter versus Mangekyou Sharingan. Which one is more powerful ? Feel free to comment and give your reasons as of why one is powerful than the other ^^.

Chaos; Head – Episode 7

Saku — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 02:20:55 +0000

TMI (Too Much Information) would be a perfect description for this episode and no doubt it’s a great episode. everything is revealed as far as what exactly is happening. As a result, not much of summary for this episode as I don’t want to spoil anything but I guarantee that you will enjoy this episode. I got so excited watching this episode and the preview for next episode is just awesome.

The suddent earthquake was quite a shocked for most people with some exceptions and not only that, random riots occurred on every part of the city. Regardless of what’s going, all Takumi worried about was his game. His computer got red screen of death (RSOD instead of BSOD).

Meanwhile at Seimei high school, Ayase was murturing some random words at school roof top.

Takumi and Sena are meant to be with each other since they bump into each other all the time.

Nanami came to visit her brother to tell him about the earthquake from earlier and she got too excited.

Random riots were happening around Tokyo area

Today is not Takumi’s day at all as he bumped into some thugs and got beaten up really bad. Luckily, Kozue-chan happened to be nearby and helped him out…. or so he thought.

The one question that every man wants to ask a girl: ‘Tell me your three sizes ?’

Kozue also has a D-sword with different form than Sena or Ayase.

Coincidentally, Kozue is a friend of Sena and Sena is one of Kozue’s first friend. Among the girls, Sena is the most knowledgable one about the situation.

A construction vehicle was running rampage in the middle of Tokyo ^^;;.

Sena and Kozue can materialize their D-sword in an instant (Mai Otome ?)

Three of them suddenly become friends… sudden BFF ^^ (Best Friend Forever for those who don’t know what it stands for)

Thoughts:

The producer or creator decided to drop the bomb in this episode. Most of your questions will be answered in this episode and a lot of explanation about Takumi’s ability, D-sword and the girls’ identity so I think this episode would be worth your while. I know it’s a long wait from episode and the pace has been really slow but wait no more because this episode and next episode should make you wanting more and more Chaos; Head ^^.

I keep my finger crossed and hope that either GSC, Alter or Max Factore produces figures from this series one day…… T.T

Chaos; Head – Episode 6

Saku — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 03:28:29 +0000

Weird things actually happened in this episode. could this mean the story finally picks up? Not to mention I got to see Sena-san in action for the first time ^^. The title, Embracement, is perfectly fit for this episode and I believe it described Rimi’s caring for Takumi that already started since the last episode. Well…. more about this episode after the cut ^^.

Taku’s mind is boggling with many things due to weird incidents happened to mind. He tried to figure it out or to make sense what exactly happened to him and how he may have the power to turn a delusion into a reality. He illustrated really well with bunch of pictures. It kinda reminds of Haruka’s drawing (Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu).

Takumi ran away in scared everytime he saw Yua at school and he is really scared of Yua as if she is going to kill him or something. So far, Yua is probably my least favorite character and I hope she is one of antagonist so I have a reason to hate her ^^;;.

Taku has nothing to worry because Rimi is always there for him. He is such a lucky guy ^^;;.

She even walked him back to his place and stayed for a bit. Every man’s dream to have a girl over at his place. A dream comes true for Takumi.

Takumi’s delusion is running wildly at this point and so does the rest of normal guy out there including me ^^;;.

It’s hard for Takumi not to look around. Having this kind of power sure does come in handy. Anyone would like to have a similar ability as Takumi ?

Daydreaming is over and Takumi is back to reality. Tooooooo baaaaaddd for him.

Meanwhile, there seems to be some sort of gathering at a park and Sena, eating ice cream as usual, happens to be the park. She has this serious look and as if something is going to happen really soon.

Her sword changes its colour and it’s visible to everyone.

This scene is probably the highlight of this episode. I couldn’t help but watch it for several times. Sena is just too cool. I need her figure for my collection XD.

The guy got so scared and wet his pants

A mystery phone call for Takumi….. could it be from Shogun ?

Something big is happening at Shibuya.

Rimi does not seem to be in panic at all which is weird unless she knows what it is going on.

Ayase goes crazy

Nanami got scared and called his brother’s name.

Yua passed out ?

Sena does not seem to be affected and she is way too calm like Rimi.

Thoughts

Not a bad episode and there is a bit of action in it. Sena is just ftw with her sword. I think the girls are just way too calm considering what is happening. They may already know what is going on and what may happen. Does Takumi really have the power to turn a delusion into a reality ? he seems to be having delusions a lot and it looks so real. I honestly can’t wait until figures from chaos; head are released because I will be getting all of them ^^ for sure.

Chaos; Head – Episode 5

Saku — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 04:31:23 +0000

Well.. I was hoping for more actions ( sword plays etc ) but I guess I have to hold back my thought until future episodes ^^;;. A couple puzzle pieces are being put together in this episode but it still may not answer your questions yet. Stop reading further if you don’t want to have a chance to get spoiled ^^.

Summary

After what happened in the last episode with Rimi, Takumi suddenly dreams about her until Seiran-tan wakes him up because it’s time for school. Despite the mysterious death incidents, the phrase ‘Those eyes, whose eyes are those?’ is even more popular than ever and a T-shirt with those words written on it is being sold around.

Meanwhile, at school, the new transfer student, Orihara Kozue (Yes, we finally know her first name XD) gave Takumi a bandage as a gift as she was crying…..weird.

On his way home, Takumi is pretty unlucky to bump into Sena but fortunately enough, he manages to hide before she spotted him. However, despite his effort, Sena lured him into an empty cart and started her lecture about some complicated stuff ^^;;

Yua has not given up on Takumi yet and still tries to ‘help’ him. Her misunderstanding seems to go even further. To make matter even worse, she reported to a nearby police and Takumi is chased down by the police + many other people (zombies ?). But no worries, Ayase comes to the rescue.

Thoughts

If I may rant, the pace is just too slooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww and it really bugs me; I need more actions ^^;;. I am not sure if it’s the producer/creator’s intention to let story going at a slow pace in order to draw more viewers but I don’t get the same vibes/excitement as I got from Code Geass R2 (the feeling excitement of looking forward to every episode). Don’t get me wrong though, it does not mean that I don’t enjoy the series because I do ^^. The dark theme + otaku main character are the major points that draws me into this series. The manga is available at onemanga.com and it’s going at faster pace 1 chapter = 2 episodes.

Since we are up to episode 5, are you still planning to continue watching the series ?

Chaos; Head – Episode 4

Saku — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 03:13:02 +0000

I just finished watching Chaos; Head ep. 4 ^_^. It’s a pretty good episode just because the story is finally moving on and I got a lot of better idea of what’s going on…. somewhat…….. I hate to admit but I am still clueless on some parts of the story. The last girl character is introduced in this episode and hopefully on the next episode, the story pace should be much faster. If you don’t want to have a chance for spoiler, stop reading this article further.

“Those eyes, Whose eyes are those?” from the previous New Gene case has become a trend among people especially high school students, however, for Taku, it has the opposite effect as he is even more frightened than before.

On his way home from the Internet cafe, he coincidentally met with the blue-haired girl again and he got busted for staring at her for too long. Well…. a girl with a huge sword will attract anyone’s attention..

Her name is Aoi Sena, a 3rd year student at the same school school as Taku. Despite previous terrible halucination, this time, Taku seems to be enjoying Aoi’s torture method as most healthy male would ^^.

The PHANTASM lead singer, FES, turns out to be a student from the same school as Taku. Her real name is Kishimoto Ayase and she seems to be interested in Takumi and told him to find the sword in order to be saved.

After school, Taku went to pick-up his Seiran-tan’s Awakened Ver. figure and couldn’t wait to go home to admire every inch of the paint job on the PVC.

“Judgement will be passed onto this town.” This mysterious guy always appears on every episode so far.

Taku is probably the unluckiest guy ever. On his way home, he got stopped by the police and was suspected to be involved in the New Gene cases and when he told them what happened, they didn’t take him seriously. Poor guy ^^;;.

Taku can’t never enjoy his figure since Rimi is always there and bugging him.

Do you guys do this when ever you get a new figure ? ^^;;

First harem situation in Chaos; Head ^^

We-key Pedophira has answers to everything. I am interested in how they came with the name ^^;;

The legendary Di-Sword is sold at Otaku shops for $10,000 and the buyer will receive a bracelet as a gift.

A very important lesson from this episode is not to take the last icecream bar from Aoi.

“Give me my ice cream or else”

Taku should be grateful for having such a caring sister but instead, he told her to get out and leave ^^;;

Taku got beaten with oranges.

And his newly bought D-sword was broken into two pieces. Bootleg quality is not as good as the original one I guess.

Next day at school, a new transfer student named Orihara was introduced in Taku’s class. Including her, there are 6 girls who are related to Taku’s on one way or the other if you check the OP.

My name is Shogun
