Well, that was a shocking ending. Once again, the series leaves me with wanting more (especially how my copy of the game doesn't work properly OTL). Oh, and lulz at MewTube; I really love all the internet parodies.

I shall await for fansubs now.

This is sorta offtopic, but you could've just reposted it. It's not that hard, and much easier than asking everyone to register at some forum.

Overall, really nice episode. Lots of talks about the pretty important stuff, lots of plain beautiful moments ("reality-breaking" FES was awesome, much better than in the game), BUT it is sorta compensated by some QUALITY moments. Oh, and it has one of my favorite scenes of the whole game (the one with the blue sky). Very, very good.

Are you sure that wasn't just a dramatic shadow on his face? I think that it might have been a illusion of his but WHO DID download this video?

angel999 said:

Uhh, you know, a spiral is a pretty popular shape. Is there any reason that it should be considered as a reference? YES! It is because it's a usual reference to Chaos also as a symbol but also in Japan those who see the spiral (especially its shape on their hand) WILL GO CRAZY! Like Takumi Watch Japanese movie called UZUMAKI.

angel999 said:

Another delusion, obviously. Though it's much more real than the previous ones. Oh wow.....it really was delusion.......that's what I though but that means he was targeted by the satellite to alter his reality

This episode stayed truer to the original because there were a lot of skipable parts of mostly Takumi's thoughts. Also very few trigger delusions.

You can actually see Yua's lookalike on the video.

Yua's hand and Takumi's body were really distorted in the @cafe booth scene, just like Sena's feet on the previous episode. And the engrish on the mechanism patent was quite heavy on the eyes.

This continues to get more confusing at times but with the possibility of him maybe having a split personality like yua said what exactly is real and what isnt is going to be tough to decide on, are those 2 girls with the di-sword real is yua real he is full of delusions that makes for a interesting show and great ending to this episode mewtube is a wonderful name for a video website lol

It was made for the piblic use in the first place. What are you talking about?
I was getting kind of tired of all the people on /jp/ and #Ensue asking for help installing and fixing Chaos;Head, so I made an installer that
a) Can always be installed, even if you've screwed up on a previous install (or already have a patch installed)
b) Fixes the chapter 2 & 3 save bug and chapter 5 crash. Yes, this means this patch is crash- and save corruption-free.

http://rapidshare.com/files/154953508/Chaos_Head_Antifail_Patch.zip.html
Contains translated text (most of it is translated), translated CGs and translated video.

To use this patch:
(If you already have the game installed, skip to C.)

A - Install the game
Get the game from somewhere and install it somewhere. I'm not helping you to a torrent or serial, so find it yourself.

B - Crack it
(skip to C if your version is legal)
Copy the NoDVD patch (a .exe) to your Chaos;Head folder, overwrite the .exe that's already there.

C - Unzip
Unzip this stuff to the Chaos;Head folder.
DO NOT UNZIP "DO NOT TOUCH.RAR"!!

D - Read the readme.
Self-explanatory.

E - Run 'Antifail Installer.bat'
If you have the latest version of VSFilter, you can opt to use softsubs.

F - Play the game
Play the game in Applocale under 日本語 or use a Japanese non-unicode setting.

G - Stop spamming /jp/ with topics asking how to install
Also, point everyone who still asks for help to this file.

Credits go to the translation team for translating the game, TinFoil for creating the original patch, and whoever it was that uploaded nssver2.rar for mostly-working NSS files (still had to replace some, though).

Enjoy!


I Like this episode, because they didn't have the Ayase Swimsuit delusion in the game. LOL

I am more worried about if they could make a satellite system like it suggests..........we do have Electrical towers and Cell phone towers. TV and Radio have proven their points.

And the theory with the coin that the two policemen were talking about seemed interesting. I wonder if they'll really be able to predict the next crime scenes with it..

I am more worried about their theory of gravity being more unbalanced in certain places in the world............DOES that notion apply to our world.

I am starting to see how much this guy took as fact to make science fiction out of them from this world we live in?

Its clearly groundless anime-babble. There is SOME merit to the suggestion that elements of our emotional state are linked to hormonal cycles that may or may not be connected to external stresses on our body (e.g. natural light levels triggering Seasonal Affective Disorder) - I've heard *some* speculation as to whether the gravitiational pull of the moon could be a trigger for some behavioural/hormonal cycles in simpler animals but I think by and large the effect on humans is negligible, if theres any effect at all.


As far as the episode goes, there was quite a lot of exposition, and a LOT of theories from various characters as to whats going on.

Will be interesting to see where the shows going with all this, roll on the next episode.

It's kind of true its not that gravity is unbalenced but rather that gravity is weaker and stronger in certain areas of the world since, after all our planet isn't a perfect sphere.

12.

And they pretty much cut most of Takumi's thoughts and his daily life scenes.

The anime is simply depicting the main events that happen in the story with emitting some of the illusions and a few other stuffs.

after all, the game is about 30-40+ hours plus, whaddya expect?

Even though my comment may seem negative, I like the anime very much so far.

It follows the game pretty well and stays refreshing and interesting, with alot of good points.

no, actually such places are said to exist on earth. but its one of those unproven things. cant remember what its called though.

this ep partially made me think that maybe its a shared delusion, and they all are being manipulated.

since when was takumi interested in 3d girls? inconsistant liar he is lol

And there it goes, my last hope for some "down to earth" investigation. Even the police goes over to "spiritual theory". Still 3/5 *sigh*

I have a new Theory: The Matrix!
A hidden organisation controls all 5 senses of humans.
Reason: The "ice eating girl" asked Takumi about "errors" and says exactly that "humans are electronically controlled", "its not what you are seeing, its what you are made to see".
