fun^10 x int^40 = Ir2 … what?


I managed to finish watching Chaos;Head this morning. It had a pretty decent story, not exactly what I thought it would be.

I thought it would be some kind of sci-fi murder mystery (along the lines of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni) from the images I’ve seen on danbooru as well as the comments made on 4chan and Gamefaq’s Anime and Manga – Other Titles board. Sure it was sci-fi but wasn’t much on the murder mystery that I was expecting. It was more or less about some hikikomori (shut-in) highschool student who is trying to figure out what the hell is going on around him while having some LOL worthy delusions.

I found Takumi’s (male lead) voice to be quite irritating and nearly stopped watching the show if it weren’t for Kozue and Nanami.

There were several times when I wanted grab Takumi and punch him in the face for being such an annoying character. Unfortunately I have no means of doing that other than in my head. He became a decent and tolerable lead in the final two episodes when he accepted what was going on around him and got his act together but that still doesn’t get him off the hook for a beat down.

“F.D.D.” was a good opening theme for the show and I found it to be appropriate while “Super Special” made me go the first time around. I still don’t like it very much but I have to admit that the beat is catchy.

Watch it for yourself and make your own judgment:

Oh right… before I forget, the equation in the title holds some significance in the story but I’m not going to say what because that’d just spoil the show.
