| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- A recap of Chaos Head's central theme, the generation of madness murders, Takumi and the patent to use technology to manipulate and control human senses and will. More true to the VN than madhouse's version without telling the whole story. 7/10 decent segway into chaos;child. |

| I watched C;H in December but I can't remember well: was this recap different from the original series? I feel like some events (like some deaths) didn't happen of happened in a different way. Is this recap more related to the VN? Pretty good animation, after seing the original 2008 version (one of the ugliest anime I've ever seen) this is a relief |
 |
| I was more interested in this recap than I was in the actual adaptation. |
 |
| 10/10 from me. Cool recap with the most good part and without those boring ones. |
 |
| I haven't watched Chaos;Head and according to ANN at least, I don't really have to. This Chaos;Head recap was confusing. But the important thing out of it was that there were some unexplained murders going on and the culprit was that loser looking dude. The loser is probably going to be irrelevant from now on I guess. I did like how Sliver Link. made that part look like it was done by a completely different studio. |
| Damn it, can't find a sub version.. only found raw version :/ (i don't really remember chaos;head, this episode should be useful to me) |
| @Z_Tetriminos it has been a while since I've seen but from what I can remember the deaths seem the same but don't quote me on it. And man if the original was ugliest anime you have ever seen don't watch anything from like the 99-04 period. I think Elfen Lied takes the cake in both terrible character design and awful animation. I remember ChäoS;HEAd being kind of meh in both departments? |
| it has been years since i have watched the anime so good thing they aired that. it covered most the main points of the story but i feel they should have also included the earthquake thing too cause i seriously don't remember anything except that there was some organization that used delusions to cause destruction but were stopped by takumi and co. but i don't remember a lot of the details so a recap for that too could have been helpful. also, i know that the anime was very rushed cause they stuffed a 40 hour VN in a 12 episode anime (i didn't play the VN so i don't know how sever the rushing was) but i don't remember some of the scenes shown in the recap, is that true? |

  |
| This didn't make much sense even watching Chaos;Head years ago, it was so mediocre I forgot almost everything about it. The problems with these recaps is there are no meaningful character interactions nor conversation so It's impossible for me to get into. |

Is this recap more related to the VN? @Z_Tetriminos, I haven't play the VN, but this is probably like with the OVA that introduce Steins;Gate Cero. They move the story up to the last important point and take a diferent route to avoid the "good end" and have more story to tell from that point onward... Occultic;Nine has that exact same feeling at the end. |

I watched the "recap" of chaos;head, it was meh. Not sure if i'll watch chaos;child, maybe some episodes |

Not sure if i'll watch chaos;child, maybe some episodes the recap was there just to refresh your memory about chaos;head. first episode of chaos;child was not that bad but it had some "what the fuck is going on?" moments too |
| Well i don't find the recap good. I'm still a little lost about the story of chaos;head. i'll see with chaos;child if it get better^^ |
| The episode 0 was a perfect recap of Chaos;head with better animation and only the important moments. The story that takes place looks like the "bad ending", at least not the same that in the anime. It was good to see before the first episode. |
| Was a quickly recap, but very intense!!! ;) |

Yep, actually she didn't even lost her arm in the anime adaptation, guess they thought it'd be a bit gore having her showing her lost blood in the arm all of the time, if only that was the only thing that made the anime adaptation so bad though... ibraheem234 said: well that was a good recap of it all...but can someone explain to me what happened it in the end...with the shogun and the MC and all |
| This recap is better than the anime. It clearly followed the VN more. |
 |
| ATTENTION!! This recap is not really a recap. They changed the story and his sister didnt died, was part of the 7 black knights with D-swords. In the end they beat the culprits, not was a end like it was in the recap. Is a different chaos;head but is still good. Chaos;Child wants to be more like realistic with crimes like those in chaos;head and without D-swords and delusions and more. Anyway, you have to watch chaos;head if you didnt or dont remember. In MAL is so underrated but is so good. |
|
| Even better than the original. It has more things adapted from the VN, that the anime doesn't have, like I would be hyped if they make a remake of the original series. The original was... meh (not bad for itself, but bad adaptation)... although the VN is great. |
 |
| Awesome recap of Chaso head. Saw things from the VN |
| Hearing originals anime song by Itou Kanako made me let few tears. No matter how much people didnt like original series (i personally liked it) its OST was amazing, one of the best i ever heard. :') |

| Just impressed with the recap's art and voice acting development than the prequel's. For parts of the recap's story which is different from the prequel's, I find it good with main points taken, I'm not a vn reader of the main series, though I think its not advisable to start with this recap without the watching or having the knowledge of the main series chaos;head then went straight to the sequel chaos;child, imo. |
 |
| Nice clean up. It took me back. |
 |
| Really was no need to make a seperate entry for this. It was part of episode 1 of the main series. |
| To be honest I prefer the anime's story ( ChäoS;Head ) Like what the hell? Why did they have to kill Nanami in this Recap ? And 3 main characters didn't appear in the Recap ( Kozu-pii , Kishimoto Ayase and the megane blondie ) At the beginning I gave it 10/10 But when I realized that there won't be any sequels for Chäo;Head in ChäoS;Child , I got really depressed This recap as a story it's horrible but great ! Note : Momoshi ( Momo chan ) from ChäoS;Head is also one of ChäoS;Child's Supporting Characters but the best thing is that there won't be any D-Swords which I really disliked in ChäoS;Head |

ichii_1 said: This. So much.More true to the VN than madhouse's version without telling the whole story. In the C;H madhouse anime, they I could not forgive that kind of change. A bit of justice was done here by showing bits of important stuff that were outright changed in the anime. A more faithful remake would be better, but that will never happen. |
| How the hell is one of the main cast dead in a recap lol. Nanami was a megalomaniac too. Oh wait this is actually one of the other routes in which everyone managed to destroy the machine but end up dead while the perps run. |

| This "recap" reminded me that I don't remember most of Chaos;Head. I figure this works better as setup for the new series than a recap of the old one. (things I recall were not in this at all) |
  |
| Ok, after playing the game I can truly say this was nothing but (VERY) rushed recap of the novel. It can't stand on its own, it was made for the fans of the game to make them remember key things but it tells you nothing about what actually happened and what the story was about. They ditched all the dilusions, characterization and explanation, cherry-picked and put together scenes from different chapters and what's left are just bare facts that tells you nothing about how the world actually works, it just roughly tells you what kinda happened in the past. Many characters were missing, many key elements (Noah, Nozomi, Di-Swords, Dyrac Sea, Glajioul, blind spot etc.) and they even make it seems that Nanami was the victim of sixth killing, the girl who ate her hand - which she wasn't. Mind the fact that Chaos;Child is a true sequel of Chaos;Head even when characters are different. The story, the reason why the things keeps happening and the mechanics will be mostly the same. The logic of the world will be applied there sooner or later and I doubt they'll explain everything. At least it was nice touch that they shown in the end that small Takeru is one of the survivors of the earthquake and that he is obsessed by the very same phrase as Takumi from prequel. tl;dr - you should definitely watch the previous anime series play the game if you don't want to get lost in Chaos;Child. It's not that long (about 30 hours on casual), it's great at that and it would get you the background needed to fully comprehend what's actually going on in C;C. Otherwise, it's like watching the second Matrix without seeing the first one (where the most things were explained). |
| Watched Chaos head the anime before this and they're are differences everywhere. To me this seems like they quickly covered a different route instead to set up the story instead of a different route. |

| I cannot agree that this recap was better than the first anime adaption. Sure the anime adaptation made some bizarre skips compared to VN but at the end it still had the essence of the series and all the important points mostly covered within the time constraint that was given. This recap makes ABSOLUTELY no sense unless you have played the VN or watched the first anime adaptation. If you thought first anime adaptation was rushed, this recap is a total joke. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Thanks for reminding me how horrible this show was. I guess I'm quite a naive person to think that Chaos,Child will be any better.. |
 |
| This recap was better than the entirety of Chaos;Head. o.o |
| I don't remember Chaos Head, coz yeah, it was bad... |
 |
| 10/10 The dub is amazing! |
| Dubbed anime is the best because you can wank without reading ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |
| Well even for a recap this was rather bad, I totally forgot about Chaos;Head and this recap didn't help me bring any memories back... so well I guess I'll just have to see what this sequel has to offer. |
 |
| Hmm still as confusing as I remember it. |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| How the hell does this not have a wayyyy higher rating? People are idiots. If you played the original Chaos;Head VN, this recap was practically a love note. People are missing its point. It covers many things completely missing from the anime series that were in the VN. Its animation is far far closer to the VN. The music is taken straight from the VN. And then it also shows all 7 murders. What's not to like? Again, people are idiots. |
