Oh boy, is Serika going to become an enemy of Takeru now? Seems that way..

The suffering continues. Takeru just can't catch a damn break in this show. I really hope Takeru isn't pushing himself over the limits from the recent revelations.

Crazy episode, Step-Dad completely broke Takuru.

So basically Step-Dad's motives were to use Takuru's powers as Gigalomaniac for further experiments and theory-crafting since he felt Takuru had potential for unsurpassed real booting power given that he actually real booted a person. Looks like we are dealing with a real Sunovabitch Mad Scientist here*Insert Maniacal laughter and "It's so cool" here* XD

The delusion fight was pretty cool, I totally didn't expect that the fight was only a delusion. Serika is dead now but wouldn't Takuru be able to real boot her again if he wanted to?

Lot of references to the committee in this episode, wonder how it's all gonna end next episode.

I heard the anime might not adapt the true end, because there wouldn't be enough time for 1 episode.

It was an OK episode IMO, the twists were nice, although the dad really end up being a total psycho.
inb4 serika alive again and kick ass together in the last moment.

another showdown for yet another cruel villainous reason against _not surprisingly enough_ another corrupt adult just like its predecessor. (dammit Committee...)

everything just loses its steam when it all boils down to a fuckin Di-Sword battle.

I enjoyed the mystery and suspense while it lasted so it'll be nice to see this end next week.

They hadn't mentioned Takuru's wish.

1 more episode, and we all will be sent into insanity, into Chaos...

that aside, episode felt a bit rushed. I'm still wondering what happened with Takuru

In all the honesty, this is underwhelming in all aspekts compared to the Occultic;Nine. I will have to consider THIS to be an off-spin by some amateur, otherwise I would lose faith in science-fiction adventures series.

Still wondering what Takuru's wish was. I'm also disappointed because I seem to have tried too hard to make connections between Takuru and Takumi. I thought for sure that something would be revealed that connected the two, considering that the murders happened on the same day, and exactly like Takumi, Takuru is being framed as the mastermind.
Hope they at least address his wish next ep

Hope they can wrap this up in a satisfying way next ep

Yeah, bullshit. Horrible example of fucked up trainwreck. My big antagonist-san can't be this BAD!

Honestly, this episode could probably work BUT only if they did proper characterization before. And his 'dad' being behind all this? His best friend killing his sister? (how?) Serika killing everyone around him to save him? (ffs, why? o_O) Yeah, that's a joke of the plot.

Glad, it's only one ep and this mess is over.

Well...a "meh" episode, at the limit of the "bad".....well i expected something of this series, but after a couple of episodes, I understood that my dream were not going to realise xD the devellopement is really strange, no real explication of what happen, or how this happen, most of the time, and this go for more bullshit, animation not really good....well it can be worse, but it can be far better.

let see how the last episode is going to end this show, all I can see now is a power up of the hero (an hero ? that "thing"...i dont have choice to call takuru a hero, but not in the good term of the word, really), then he kill this antagonist, and then remake Onoe and the antagonist into a good father, and hop, the family don't know what the dad wanted and can be reunited with takuru, dont forget Nono who make a come back => happy end.

What is happening or why is it happening? What's the point for all those characters? Seems like the twists were kinda interesting, but i just don't know why should i care. Mb because the buildup was so crazily rushed (i assume it was), the story feels so uninteresting ...
Well i think i can handle 1 episode and mb the ending will be the greatest thing never seen before (who am i kidding).

And we're back to di-sword battles. Why does it have to get clusterfucky at the end? We're starting to get a literal repeat of ChäoS;HEAd.

Even a lot of the characters are parallel: twintailed mind reader, long hair psycho, Serika=Rimi (+slightly less damsely)... Takuru aka Takumi II is bullied around by some power hungry fuck, and then sent through mind games and in the end fighting the big bad with di-swords... Takumi had reinforcements, though Takuru is only against 1 idiot with an upgraded version of the backpack, as opposed to a whole Noah II.

I think this whole concept is just too hard for normal story writers to handle, you need bigger brains to handle meta shit like this.

Well I think they will cover a bit of true route but they probably will do it again without much explanation stuffs and probably will just get to important part in plot.
I wouldn't be surprised if they actually going to skip some explanation.

It was an okay episode. Of course the plot twists weren't amazing, decent at best. Di-swords suck as always but the psychic powers were cool.

One thing that I'm a little confused about this episode is that his father said that he manipulated both Serika's and Takuru's mind. Then he went and explained how Serika's realized it was a delusion and didn't fight back. So did he manipulate them at the same time and made them kill each other? So in the end Takuru did kill the fuck out of Serika?

I still like Serika even though the series is a huge disappointment.

Serika disappeared from the op with the kid Takuru.
Chaos;Child's Gigalomaniacs really are barely any different from normal people. Quite the let down from Chaos;Head.

Boring episode and inncesary, because the most important of the plot in summary is arround 2 minutes of duration!!! The rest of the plot is filling!!!

Sakuma-sensei, about the science obtain the power to change "your reality" with the dreams/nigtmares. He has a beautiful sword. Very nice for "Halloween"!!! Takuru killed Serika in dreams, and with his great power can not defeat to his "father" adoptive!!

Very disspointing i am.... how don´t change in the next, and last episode, the plot, a spin or twin plot, this series will end how ... :(

Di-sword battles just sucks, they ain't nesessary and make all become like a fantasy anime and not a scify as i think this anime is intended to be. I just melancoly tough that if Chaos;Head were made with something like this quality could be a lot better :/.

So all the killings were for.... nothing!
Just because a crazy villain wanted to have some little fun.

That's why animes like this get low scores. The reasons behind the scenes are just pathetic.
