The main characters goes from being a sniveling, unlikeable douche to being some king of Goku knight in shining armour? And then he sacrifices the wellbeing of the entire planet (6 billion people?)by destroying a machine that will create a utopian world for his *beep* girlfriend who would not have been killed if he just let the antagonist create a perfect world?
Is this correct? This has to be the worst anime ever.
Nope. She'd have to be sacrificed for the delusional utopian world to be created.
And if you think this is the worst anime ever, then you obviously haven't seen many anime.
Anyway, I just finished Chaos Head today and thought it was underrated. It's not great, but still good and certainly better than most of the other anime I've seen from around that time. The original visual novel of Chaos Head (by the creators of Steins Gate) is apparently a lot better than the anime adaptation, but the anime could have been a lot better too if it had been a 24-episode series instead of a 12-episode one, which previously made a huge difference to Kanon (the longer 2006 anime series was far better than the shorter 2002 one).
"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM???!!!!!"
I'm amazed and appalled that anyone could find anything good about this garbage.
You'd be right in saying I haven't seen that much anime, but this is surely one of, if not THE worst I've experienced. To me, it's pretty much everything that could be wrong with anime. From the utterly pathetic and unlikeable main character to the horrendously bad plot.
All those scenes with the main guy being nervous around girls and that kinda stuff just SCREAMS generic, bad anime where loser is surrounded by 'attractive' females.
It's more like a dystopia according to standards of science fiction since it lacks free will. The antagonist will attempt to create a version of the world where people become incapable of expressing anything other than their true beliefs. This is similar to the world that Charles zi Brittania sought to create in Code Geass. It's similar to the first version of the world described in The Matrix that people rejected, despite its lack of world conflict. Why did Neo choose the red pill? Is the real world more peaceful or comfortable than the fabricated Matrix? It's neither, but in science fiction people have always sought truth over comfort, or preserve a world as we know it rather than indulge the whims ambitious creator wannabe.
shareYou didn’t quiet get it.
The reason Tamachi is unlikeable is because he’s not a real person. He becomes likable when he absorbs the memories of the real Tamachi.
His Girlfriend would have died had it not been for his intervention, as she would have had brain tissue removed and added to Noah 2.
The utopia that was to be created was an illusion, and was ultimately in the power of the Antagonist. He’d pretty well obliterate Free Will and manipulate people as he saw fit.
And, as Tamachi said, what kind of a god would build a utopia on hurting someone else?
The whole point is that it wouldn’t be a real Utopia. It’s kind of like the Watchmen where world peace is achieved via a Lie, in which millions of lives were sacrificed, only worse since in this scenario, while fewer outright died, no oen has Freedom and everyone is forced to live under a dictatorship with no free Will.
I actually liked the series. I don't think it was the best show ever but it was interesting. also agree, it'd have been better if it had had mroe episodes,the same with Deadman Wonderland, the show I watched right before I watched it.
I'd even go so far as to say it may have been better written, better developed and fleshed out.
But it wasn't as awful as some say. It was just confusing.
