Chaos;Head is a Visual Novel and the first entry in the Science Adventure Series. It stars Takumi Nishijou, an Ordinary High-School Student and raging otaku who lives in the Tokyo ward of Shibuya.Takumi lives in a steel shipping container on the roof of a building, converted into a small apartment. He spends most of his time at home, either playing the fictional MMORPG Empire Sweeper Online (in which he is Neidhardt, the most famous and powerful player ever) or watching anime. He has over one hundred "waifus" (figurines), his favorite being the character Seira from the fictional anime Blood Tune; he frequently affirms his love of 2-D women and his hatred of 3-D women. He is a borderline hikikomori, having crafted a "minimum attendance shift chart" to ensure that he can attend school as little as possible while still graduating.When the story begins, he is only known to have even semi-regular interactions with a few people: his bratty younger sister Nanami, his ESO guild partner Grim (whom he speaks to online), the school's resident playboy Misumi, and Seira, whom he has become deluded into thinking exists, to the point that he can hear her talking and interact with her as a kind of muse. Beyond these, he seems to be quite afraid of interacting with people, exhibiting classic signs of social phobia (such as extreme discomfort with making eye contact).This routine life is shattered when, upon coming home one day, he hears the sound of something being pounded into concrete. Looking over, he sees a pink-haired 'demon girl', pinning a body to an alley wall with cross-shaped stakes. The girl turns, smiles, and inexplicably calls him by name, at which point he runs. This scene is the third in a series of bizarre, gruesome murders called the "New Generation" murders. Takumi initially wants nothing to do with this, but a mysterious user known as 'Shogun' begins stalking Takumi, and seems intent on dragging him into the whole mess. Takumi then realizes that this mysterious man is working with the demon girl. Meanwhile, the Noah OrganiZation Of Medical Instruments, or the NOZOMI Group, puppeteers the New Gen incidents for their hidden, sinister purposes. When the bodies continue to pile up, a whole bunch of weird super-powered girls show up and get closer to Takumi, a conspiracy between NOZOMI and several powerful organizations surfaces, and, in the center of it all, Shogun and the Demon Girl make their move, Takumi finds himself forced out of his solitary lifestyle, and into a mystery encapsulating all of Shibuya.The game has a unique "delusion trigger" system where the player can, at certain points, opt to view one of Takumi's daydreams/delusions. The player is given a choice between a good delusion (happy, humorous, or H in nature) or a bad delusion (paranoid, violent or tragic in nature). For example, when Nanami visits and berates Takumi for not ever calling home, she takes a swig of soda without asking; the good delusion brings up the concept of an Indirect Kiss, prompting Takumi to compare it to a hentai game scene (at which point it almost does turn into one), and the bad delusion involves Nanami taking a swig of coke, then gagging and coughing up blood and dying. Takumi wonders why that happened, then remembers that he poisoned the coke beforehand. Typically these delusions have no direct influence on the story itself (Takumi simply snaps out of it and the scene continues from where it left off), but seeing certain ones triggers flags that can influence which ending you see. Many of these delusions involve blatant reference to anime (or eroge) tropes, as well as surprisingly clever foreshadowing.The game was made into an anime by Madhouse for the fall 2008 season, with an Xbox 360 enhanced remake titled Chaos;Head NoAH released in February 2009. The NoAH version is essentially a Director's Cut version of the original, featuring several graphical enhancements, and some changes to the script, including additons of several new scenes — most prominently in the form of fully-fleged routes for the different heroines, and though many focused on fleshing out the characters, they also provides extra details to the plot.A fan translation patch for the game exists, but was taken down from the main site due to an agreement with Nitroplus, which unfortunately led to Development Hell as the original PC release was never officially localized; in fact no news after the "agreement" between the original fan translators and Nitroplus were given.That being said, a current fan translation by Committee of Zero, a group dedicated to translating Science Adventure content that never came to the west, worked on translating the Chaos;Head NoAH version of the game as it is the canon entry that future titles rely on story wise. The translation was finally released on February 2023 for the Steam version and Switch.In February 2022, the official Twitter account for the Science Adventure series posted a tweet hinting towards an official English release, and shortly after dropped a trailer announcing the first ever official Western release of Chaos;Head NoAH to be released on October 7. The game was at first meant to be released on Steam and Nintendo Switch, but on September 30, Spike Chunsoft, the publisher, announced that it had not managed to guarantee a release on Steam because the game had apparently fallen short of Steam's guidelines. Thankfully, on October 6, Spike Chunsoft announced that the decision had been reversed, and the game would be released on both platforms as originally planned.Unfortunately, both the official translation and the port have various shortcomings. However, as mentioned above, the Committee of Zero patch fixes these issues and is the ideal way to play the game on PC (both for Japanese and English players)The game is the predecessor to Steins;Gate and Robotics;Notes.A Sequel, Chaos;Child, was released for the Xbox One in 2014, with different cast of characters in the same setting of Shibuya set several years after the events of Chaos;Head. The anime adaptation started airing in January 2017. An official English version was released on Steam and the Nintendo Switch in October 2022.

Earn Your Bad Ending
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_132e865c
comment
Earn Your Bad Ending: Ending B. It can only be done on a second playthrough, and unlike either Ending A or Ending AA, it can only be accomplished by making a specific decision or Delusion Trigger at 11 points in the game, and you're never told which ones are which. This results in a recut of Ending A from Rimi's perspective, which is even more heartbreaking than the normal bad ending.

Serial Killings, Specific Target: Played with, as the ultimate target of the New Gen murders, the victims of which number in the double digits, is not someone the culprits aim to kill specifically- rather, they seek to use the killings to psychologically torture Takumi Nishijou into awakening his Gigalomaniac powers, and then extract his CODE sample (brainwave pattern), to power Noah II and Take Over the World.

Madness Mantra: Takumi is prone to doing this a lot. His favorite phrase to chant when he's terrified out of his mind is "I don't wanna die. I don't wanna die. I don't wanna die...". Takumi's worst case of this is in Chapter 9, once he discovers his existence is a lie and that he is just a clone of someone else.

Rescue Romance: Takumi braves through many battles against the New Gen killers and Norose himself, as well as a crap ton of psychological trauma and mental breaks in order to save Rimi. After saving her, Rimi spares him and confesses that she loves him, to which he responds in kind, and the two begin to date afterwards, trying to rebuild their lives following their traumatic pasts.

Nerds Are Sexy: Despite wearing glasses, having very good grades and being a big anime and manga fan, Takumi thinks that Yua is pretty beautiful. That being said, Takumi himself is also a nerd, so this is probably more appealing to him than anything.

 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_14beeefd
comment
Darker and Edgier: Chaos;Head was probably the darkest entry in the Science Adventure Series until Chaos;Child got released, and even then it one-ups its thematic successor in certain aspects. The main protagonist, Takumi, is a mentally disturbed Unreliable Narrator who's an extreme social recluse, the plot is chock-full of Paranoia Fuel with the storyline deliberately confusing you about what's real and what's not, and the driving force behind the plot is a series of incredibly ghastly murders that Takumi gets implicated in. While the true ending is a case of Earn Your Happy Ending, the journey to get there is nothing short of unadulterated Psychological Horror.

Shared Mass Hallucination
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_15745e8b
comment
Shared Mass Hallucination: One of the central ideas, but it runs on the idea in reverse: if you can get more than one person to see the same thing (real or not), it becomes real. Whether it's explained as magic or science depends on the character given the explanation, although the story focuses more on the scientific one.

The Anti-Nihilist
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_17640aa8
comment
The Anti-Nihilist: Played straight, with all the bitterness and angst included. Takumi eventually becomes this trope by the end, despite being the polar opposite initially as someone who wanted nothing more but to be constantly happy and not face any struggle or strife in his peaceful life. After the living hell of a nightmare he's put through and facing his own despair event horizon upon realizing his life is a lie and that he technically isn't real, he understands all too well how horrible the world really is. But he also comes to realize that with the support of other people who are struggling and traumatized the same way he is, and with someone to live for, he can survive in this world and make something of his life, and be happy despite the sorrow. His life, despite being a delusional one, is still worth living, and he is his own person that can take control of said life, and instill the worth in it.

All There in the Manual
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_17ce80aa
comment
All There in the Manual: In the script files for the original game and its NoAH version, there are comments by Naotaka Hayashi himself (the sole scenario writer for Chaos;Head, Steins;Gate and Robotics;Notes) that actually confirm some interesting lore details that were only left up to interpretation in the game proper. This includes tidbits such as the device on Ayase's head during her flashback being one used to scan and obtain CODE samples, and Shogun being the 4th person who was at the Delusion Synchro that occurred at the staking.

Unreliable Narrator
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_1869b4b1
comment
Unreliable Narrator: The start of the story is entirely from the perspective of the delusional main character, and he's not sure what's going on. Everyone is an Unreliable Narrator in this show. Both the pseudo-scientific and pseudo-religious explanations are likely the results of each character's own delusions: Sena, as the main source of technobabble is the occupation of her father, which ties in directly to her incredibly traumatizing childhood; Ayase, who is the main source of the pseudo-spiritual explanation, is shown reading a book in the hospital entitled "The Gladioul Saga," which chronicles the tale of the battle against the Wicked-Hearted King Gladioul and the Seven Black Knights, the latter is her name for the DI-sword wielders.

Multiple Endings: Three ones in the main game (Ending A is the Common Route Ending, Ending B is a bad ending, Ending AA is the True Ending). There are 6 added routes and endings in the ''NoAH'' version of the game, each one tied to one of the main girls of the cast, and all must be completed along with the Common Route and Route B in order to obtain the True Ending in that version.

The Cameo: While no other Science Adventure characters from later entries appear in this game as this was the first entry of the series, Rimi herself does appear in the Nitroplus Fighting Game PhantomBreaker along with Kurisu. There is a crossover short story called Chaos;Gate where Sena runs into Okabe during the one week gap after Takumi's incident at O-Front. Characters from Chaos;Head do re-appear or are referenced from time to time in later entries, though saying which ones and why would be spoiling later entries.

comment
No Self-Buffs: Gigalomaniacs can't heal injuries with their powers. This is because their powers don't allow them to ignore the pain their body is telling them they're experiencing. This is subverted when Takumi creatively figures out to circumvent this by using a delusion to null his sense of pain, as well as remaking his body to be one similar to an Amoeba that can take any shape so he can easily regenerate.

Poor Communication Kills: Takumi never confronts Rimi over her shady appearance at the murder scene and in his life, and he keeps trying to run and ignore the signs that he's being targeted for New Gen, refusing to face it. By the time he finally accepts the call, his sister has been kidnapped and tortured, Rimi has also been kidnapped, and the entire city is destroyed by a Noah II powered earthquake.

And the reason why it all happened was that Kozue got knocked unconscious during the earthquake.

Cruel and Unusual Death
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_1e584efa
comment
Cruel and Unusual Death: The New Gen murders feature numerous examples of these, such as a guy who was killed by having his blood drained and a guy killed by scooping his brain out with a spoon. However, the 2nd incident easily takes the cake after the circumstances of the murder. Nurse Hazuki, who together with Suwa is the culprit behind all these cases, restrained the unlucky guy on a operating table and proceeded to vivisect him without any sort of anesthesia. And that isn't even the worst part. Remember that an unborn child was inserted into his body-that's Hazuki's baby of whom Suwa is the father. After slicing the victim open, she proceeded to cut her own womb open, rip the fetus out and shove into that guys stomach. And she did this without any anesthesia, all while sprouting an Slasher Smile par excellence and mumbling stuff in some sort of trance.

It Sucks to Be the Chosen One: Takumi was chosen (or rather, created) by Shogun for the sole purpose of suffering enough to awaken as a Gigalomaniac, then destroy Noah II which is a near impossible feat. His creator did give him free will so he could live a peaceful life after achieving this goal, so it's not entirely bad at least.

Psychological Thriller: This story's genre in a nutshell, which makes sense as one of the main goals of the villains is to shock Takumi into awakening as a Gigalomaniac so they can obtain his CODE sample and perfect Noah II.

Limited Wardrobe: Justified. All of the main girls are Suimei Academy students, and the story takes place in the middle of the school year, so they're required to have their student outfits on most of the time as a result of Japan Cultural norms. Rimi actually has a casual outfit she wears in scenes prior to pretending to be one of Takumi's classmates.

Bland-Name Product: Deluoode is the most well known example. There is also We-Key Pedophilianote the Encyclopedia of Useless Knowledge for [[Wikipedia. ZigZagged with Coca-cola, as Takumi and everyone else in the game only refer to it as "Cola", but the red bottles on Takumi's desk make it pretty clear it's Coke. There are also Taboo! (Yahoo!), Slavecard (Mastercard), Grouchosoft Mindorz X Perfect (Microsoft Windows XP Premium), three different McDonald's spoofs (McDeinald's, McDynald's and WacTiKald's), Asos (Asus). The forum website that Takumi frequents, @channel is modeled after the Japanese forum website 2ch, or 2-Channel. There is also MewTube (YouTube), and both of these would later resurface (and play major roles) in Steins;Gate.

Memetic Mutation: Applied in-universe. After the discovery of the fourth New Gen murder, which had "Whose eyes are those eyes?" written in blood, it becomes publically known to the entire populace of Shibuya. It soon spreads to message boards, forums, t-shirts, and even as a Verbal Tic in everyday conversation. This is Played for Drama, as the player is firmly reminded how disgusting it is that these people are effectively making a spectacle of a real tragedy with real victims. It's later revealed that the reason Shibuya's population are making essentially a show of the New Gen killings is because of the GE Rate's spikes caused by Noah II influencing their Biorhythms to heights that cause their emotions to be thrown out of wack.

Takumi is the only person who has been shown to be able to real-boot without one, which is heavily implied to be because he's channeling the power of the already awakened Gigalomaniac, Shogun.

Rapid Aging
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_3687d605
comment
Rapid Aging: Overusing the power of delusions apparently causes one to age faster. This is only relevant to Shogun though, as he real-booted a literal world shattering equation into existence at the age of 10, which ended up causing him to age faster. As a result, he's practically at death's doorstep at the age of 17 once the story begins. According to the sequel, Chaos;Child, it's heavily implied that this is the same illness that afflicts the Hekiho Academy students, and that the rapid aging is a symptom of the disease being cancer, which is destroying the telomeres of the people afflicted, and telomeres affect the aging cycle.

Little Sister Heroine: Nanami. The way the game works means that as with the other female main characters, you can trigger certain 'delusion' events about her that occur only in Takumi's head, but that he doesn't control. Several 'delusion' events play up this angle, such as with the indirect kiss scene. Of course, she is technically not his real sister, as he is a clone of the real Takumi, Shogun.

The Greatest Story Never Told: No one remembers Takumi outting Hazuki as the New Gen culprit in later entries because the footage of it was lost following the Shibuya Earthquake. Though it's possible the Committee of 300 helped obfuscate this fact afterwards to prevent ties to the Church of Divine Light being found. It also goes without saying that no one finds out about Takumi's struggles in future entries aside from the other 6 main girls, because he hasn't told anyone else. As of yet anyways...

The Stinger: Chapter 1 ends with Yua revealing that Takumi was orchestrating a conversation to himself under both the names of Neidhardt and Shogun, implying he has a split personality. Chapter 2 ends with the phrase that only Takumi knows and has said in his phrase appearing at the 4th murder, implying that the incidents are targeting him specifically. Chapter 7 ends with Nanami reappearing at the school after her kidnapping, but Takumi sees she has a wrapping around her wrist, implying her hand might have been cut off after all. Chapter 8 ends with Takumi going back to his home, only to find that he has none at all, and for Rimi to confirm that he has no home. We then see Shogun returning to his hospital room, only to find that the name of the room belongs to Nishijou Takumi.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_4a3e547f
comment
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Takumi often remarks on how he feels the "Gaze of God" watching him, and so do most of the other characters in the story whenever we see scenes of them where Takumi isn't present (poking fun at it being the player of the game). Takumi mentions at some points that he thinks he's in a game world due to how ridiculous the events that happen to him and the people he meets are, as well as this insane conspiracy he's trapped in. He even says that he wants the person watching him from the screen beyond to reset his level and make him a stronger, more manly character. Whenever Takumi bonds with Rimi or Yua and they seem to be romantically interested in him, he mentions "IT'S A ROMANCE FLAG!" in his thoughts. In the anime version, after the common eye phrase pops up, he looks directly towards the camera, as though he noticed the viewers watching him for no given explanation. This seemingly confirms that the eyes he's always referring to are the eyes of the viewer.

Break the Cutie: Every single heroine and Takumi has gone through this at some point or another, as being mentally traumatized is one of the basic requirements to obtain a DI-sword and become a Gigalomaniac.

Clap Your Hands If You Believe: When a Gigalomaniac finds their DI-sword, they gain the ability to Real-Boot delusions. This forces others to perceive the delusion through sending antiparticles into the dead spot of their brain, and this shared recognition gives the delusion a physical form.

Downer Ending
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_4e3d253b
comment
Downer Ending: Endings A and B. In A, Norose is stopped and his machine destroyed, but Takumi chooses to let Rimi kill him so Shogun can live a little longer. In B, Takumi fails to stop Norose or destroy his machine, while he's still killed but from Rimi’s perspective. Most of the NoAH endings are this, usually ending with Taku and one of the girls either dying or being rendered indisposed while Noah II takes over the world.

Love Confession: Takumi realizes he has feelings for Rimi at the climax of chapter 9, but doesn't tell her because he knows he will die soon, and he didn't want to hurt her. This is exactly how things end for him in A Ending, though Rimi kisses him as she stabs him to ease his pain. In the True Ending, Blue Sky, following their kiss, Takumi survives because Rimi spares him by not real booting her sword, saying that she loves him and wants to spend her life with him. Takumi reciprocates, finally confessing that he loves her too, and the two cling to each other in the rain. They then use their delusions to clear the cloudy sky, so they can finally see the blue sky they've been fighting for all this time.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: As the first entry in the Science Adventure Series, Chaos;Head really shows its age, particularly when it comes to the original PC release: Backgrounds and environmental details frequently used stock assets and 3D models, leading to an uncanny effect when contrasted with the 2D character sprites. Unlike future SciADV titles that feature major characters who often closely know other and regularly interact, the cast of Chaos;Head is far more disjointed, with Takumi being a major social recluse with a negligible inner circle. As a result, the majority of the supporting cast only shows up when the plot requires them to, leaving them significantly underdeveloped in the original release. The Diegetic Interface is far more prominent in this visual novel, with the game going out of its way to replicate the late 2000's PC interface in the design of its TIPS and Save/Load screens. Later SciADV releases toned down this aspect significantly, featuring more standardized UIs. The Updated Re-release of Chaos;Head Noah was developed concurrently with Steins;Gate and made numerous changes to bring it in line with the latter title, most notably by updating the background and environmental art, and revamping the route system to make it more character-focused, allowing the supporting characters to have their time in the limelight. To date, Chaos;Head has had the most dramatic changes made to its Updated Re-release compared to what's been the case for future SciADV titles.

Conspiracy Thriller: The entirety of the plot is kickstarted by two traitors to the Commitee of 300 funding Norose and the Nozomi corporation to use an equation created by a small child that can allow people to make technology that can bend the fabric of reality, which is fueled by the CODE samples of heavily traumatized teenagers, and they're trying everything they can to awaken one last teen who is one of the most powerful Gigalomaniacs in the world to perfect the device.

Minimalism: Despite having a decent sized OST, the game doesn't make much use of it for the sake of atmosphere, you'll mostly hear Takumi's PC fan more often than not as he spends most of his time in his room, frightened and hoping nothing bad happens to him or comes for him, giving the game a very eerie, scary atmosphere.

At the end of route B, Takumi imagines himself in a harem with the heroines. Takumi didn't escape it.

Police Are Useless: Subverted. Ban actually manages to uncover most of the Conspiracy with help from Momose and Yua. However, this is rendered null when Suwa kills him for learning too much. Also justified, as even if the police genuinely tried to protect Takumi, Nozomi's porters would mind control them and stop them from being able to help him.

Adaptation Distillation: It takes around 25 to 30 hours to finish the game (or at least the common route which is the canon events of the story). The anime adaptation, on the other hand, is little short of six hours long. It hardly takes a genius to figure out how much of the story was left out in the adaptation.

It's All My Fault: Takumi experiences this when he fails to save Nanami at O-Front, blaming himself for what he believes to be her murder. Somewhat lessened later when he finds out she survived, but she still lost her hand in the process and he blames himself for that regardless. Shogun blames himself for the entire crisis the Gigalomaniacs face in the present, because he created Ir2 which was manipulated by offshoot traitors of the Committee of 300 for their personal gain, which led to every Gigalomaniac involved to be tracked down and tortured for this plan. Hatano Issei entirely blames himself for the deaths of his wife and daughter as well as Sena being traumatized for life because he willingly let his wife and daughter be used in a NOZOMI experiment.

comment
Meaningful Name: The kanji for the name "Takumi" has the same character used for the word "Snake" in it. Takumi's sword becomes a snake when he summons antiparticles in his sword to destroy Noah II. This is also a christian allusion, as Takumi is rejecting eternal paradise in Noah II like how the snake in the story of Adam and Eve led the titular duo astray into committing the original sin that caused them to reject paradise. The name 'NOZOMI' is Japanese for 'Wish', which refers to them being able to grant the wishes of everyone in the world via Noah II's delusions to give everyone a happy life and prevent any further war.

Character-Magnetic Team: Completely subverted, unlike every other SciADV entry. The girls of the cast mostly drift in and out of Takumi's lives because they all have their own agendas and problems to work through, and they don't have much of a reason to stay with him. Likewise, half of the girls don't even ever meet one another as a result, they're not a tightly knit friend group in the slightest or even know one another. The only exceptions to this rule are Rimi and Nanami, who go out of their way to interact with and check up on Takumi often because they care about him.

Another Dimension: Played with. There are times that Takumi believes he's been somehow shifted into a new reality when his memories don't match up with other people, but it's really just Shogun and Rimi using their delusions to rewrite the memories of the people around them to fit a new narrative. The way DI-swords work is they act as a conduit (Sena calls them a pipe) for the Dirac Sea, which is another dimension where antimatter is stored, and through that, antiparticles can be directed into the dead spots of another person, forcing them to see what the Gigalomaniac wants them to see, which can in turn create new things in their reality.

Unwanted Harem: Averted. While the main cast set up consists of Takumi and the six lead girls, and official art usually depicts Takumi with them in a way reminiscent of a harem, none of them are actually after him romantically. Rimi does eventually fall in love with him though and vice versa, as show n in the true ending. When Takumi is mind broken by Suwa in the B Ending of the game, he plunges himself into a delusion of having a romantic comedy-like relationship with the girls at school.

Once More, with Clarity: The entirety of the first scene in the game makes complete sense once you see it again at the final scene of the story, Takumi is rendered immobile due to his battle with Norose, Rimi stabs him to save Shogun's life, and Shibuya is in ruins because of the earthquake caused by Noah II.

Arc Words: "Whose eyes are those eyes?" ("Sono me, dare no me?") It actually reaches memetic stays in-universe, becoming associated with the New Gen murders. "Don't look at me" is basically Takumi's catchphrase, and represents how he wants to be isolated and considers himself ugly and pathetic.

comment
The Cuckoolander Was Right: Ayase generally says very cryptic nonsensical things, such as there being a wicked-hearted king Gladioul who is trying to destroy the world and there being seven black knights needed to stop him. But as the story progresses it becomes apparent that Gladioul is referring to Noah II, and the seven knights are referring to the Gigalomaniacs who were gathered in the city.

Psychic Link: Kozue uses this to communicate telepathically. It's stated that somehow it is entirely different because it runs off the power of delusions. Takumi and Shogun have one as well and subconsciously share memories and thoughts from time to time, mainly because they technically are the same person (the former being a delusion clone of the latter).

Tsundere: Sena. She even has a Shout-Out to Shakugan no Shana. Nanami crosses this with Annoying Younger Sibling and Little Sister Heroine. She often mocks her brother for being a sloppy recluse, but shows herself to truly love him when she gets captured- she calls his name and wants to see him again. In one of his positive delusions, Takumi gets a call on his phone from an (unnamed and otherwise nonexistent) incredibly generic Tsundere love interest, whose every second sentence is "It's not that I like you or anything". I Love Tsundere Music Player (Extras) - "I'll let you listen! But only because it's you."

comment
Expanded Universe: While Chaos;Head was originally a standalone title, its NoAH version retcons a few scenes and adds a lot of new lore and reveals, which combined with the original story set up the foundation for the entire Science Adventure series. Every mainline entry following this story heavily references the events of Chaos;Head in many different ways, either thematically or in the actual narratives events and how it heavily relies on the science behind Chaos;Head and its conspiracy to be fully understood. These sequel entries follow the plotline of many different groups of people in Japan's Tokyo Ward who are targeted by the Committee of 300 and forced to battle this deadly conspiracy group in order to escape with their lives and thwart their plans of ruling the world.

comment
How We Got Here: The story starts with Takumi lying in a ruined Tokyo street. A Girl summons a Sword out of thin air and kisses him just before she stabs him. The context is that he has just defeated Norose and was blasted outside by the force of his machine, which caused an earthquake that destroyed Shibuya. He begs Rimi to kill him so the real Takumi, Shogun, can live a little longer while he dies as a mere clone. Subverted in the AA ending, which reveals what actually happened is her sword wasn't Real Booted, because Rimi decided to save Takumi instead.

I Didn't Tell You Because You'd Be Unhappy: There is no good way to tell your friend that you've developed feelings for that their entire existence is a lie, and that they have fabricated memories and no home or true family. This is the reason Rimi doesn't tell Takumi the truth until he returns to what he believes is his home only to find that it doesn't exist.

Go Mad from the Revelation
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_89b8822f
comment
Go Mad from the Revelation: Sena's mother was secretly used as a test subject for creating matter from delusions artificially. Since her second child and Sena's little sister mana died shortly after birth, they created a new baby from artificial delusions and gave it to her. Sena's father was against turning her into a guinea pig, but also didn't want her to realize that her child had died, so he reluctantly approved. The experiment continued for several years, until it was decided that enough results were gathered from it and it will be halted. Sena (who didn't know about the experiment) unfortunately happened to be there when they turned the machines off, causing her mother to freak out upon realizing she's been carrying a corpse and proceeded to tear at her face, eat her child's corpse, and stab her own eyes out with a pair of scissors. All while Sena could do nothing but watch.

Deconstructed Trope: Takumi often thinks about how wonderful it would be if you could have the power of leveling up with cheat codes and such in the real world, and when he finds out about DI-swords being able to grant you such a thing in reality, he's ecstatic because it means he can escape the paranoia and torment he's been experiencing. But then he discovers in order to obtain a DI-sword, you need to undergo immense psychological strain and mental damage in order to be able to bend reality to your whims, and at that point you might be so broken as a person that you likely won't even be able to enjoy said power anymore. Not such a nice reality after all.

Sword of Plot Advancement: After Ayase/FES gives Takumi a cryptic offhand comment about DI-swords, he starts searching for it, if only to gain some security in his current situation, wherein someone may or may not want him dead. In a more literal sense, all of NOZOMI and Shogun want Takumi to awaken as a Gigalomaniac and in turn get his sword for different reasons, so he literally needs the sword in order to progress to the endgame of both their plans, which he eventually obtains.

But in reality, none of the girls are romantically interested in Takumi in the slightest, and only interact with him for ulterior motives most of the time. The only exception to this rule is Rimi, who ends up falling for him by the end of the story.

Anti-Escapism Aesop
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_9981590a
comment
Anti-Escapism Aesop: Takumi often tries to avoid interacting with anyone and tries to isolate himself constantly, yet at the same time continues to crave human connection despite what he says and does. He feels like no one ever understands him and that the "3-D world" is crappy and not worth living in, and that immersing himself only in 2-D will make him happy. The horrendous terror and strife he's put through throughout the story continuously reinforce this belief in him. However, the story makes it very clear that trying to avoid his problems will not make them go away, and, ultimately, after finding someone that makes his life worth living, Rimi, he finally steps up and faces his cruel reality head on, taking the fight the Nozomi themselves in order to survive. This culminates in Takumi destroying Noah II with the support of the people he's met in his life wishing for his safe return, even though Noah II is essentially the ultimate form of escapism and would birth a world with no more pain and suffering, which is what he originally wished for.

After being tormented and antagonized for the entire game, Takumi finally has had enough, finds something worth fighting for (Rimi), grits his teeth and launches an assault against NOZOMI themselves, outting Hazuki as the culprit, killing Suwa by reversing a delusion on him, and finally after a long an arduous battle of minds, defeats Norose and destroys Noah II. Not bad at all for an easily frightened Otaku.

Foreshadowing: Man oh man, does this story have so much of this. The story begins with Takumi in a destroyed area at night, where a mysterious pink haired girl stabs him with a sword. By the story's end it's revealed that this is Takumi after a massive earthquake, in the remains of the destroyed Shibuya, and Rimi is here to kill him to save what is left of Shogun's lifespan. The start of Chapter 1 begins with Takumi being sent a cartoonish doodle of a person being stabbed by his friend Grimm, and a mysterious user named Shogun sends him an image of a a person being staked to death, paired with the words, "Whose eyes are those eyes?" which are a phrase Takumi uses in his mind. This later ends up being revealed to be Shogun trying to warn Takumi of the staking murder that the New Gen killers want to lure him to as well as to instill some fear in him to help awaken him, and the doodle was Grimm jokingly hinting at said murder as well, which Takumi remembers later on and uses to piece together that Grimm is Nurse Hazuki, one of the New Gen culprits. From the moment Rimi enters the story, there are many signs that she has a very shady and cryptic place of origin, appearing in the flash forward at the start of the game to kill Taku, appearing at the scene of the third murder, Takumi's classmates all remembering Rimi when he doesn't, her playing dumb that the murders seem to be centering around Taku and ignoring all of the warning signs, but Taku tries to turn a blind eye to this to let Rimi help him. In the end it's revealed she was privy to what was going on the whole time, but was trying to keep Takumi out of danger. Much of what Ayase says sounds like cryptic, denpa babble, talking about a Wicked-Hearted King Gladioul who wants to destroy the world and Seven Black Knights that are needed to defeat him. But in reality, she was talking about a prophecy she'd read in The Gladioul Saga which was referring to Noah II and the seven Gigalomaniacs that are currently in Shibuya. Takumi has a memory from when he was 10 years old of one time where he forced to stay home from a field trip and was incredibly mad over this, venting out his anger in violent drawings. The next time, the kids who went on said field trip were injured and the teacher was killed in an accident. This is because Takumi accidentally real booted the events he drew in his drawings to happen in reality. Takumi also has a memory of a Reality TV show where the hosts were getting a precognitive person to predict what was in some boxes without any knowledge of what was in them before hand, and Takumi accurately predicted 100% of the contents. This was because he real booted the contents to be in those boxes. Takumi had a dream of staying in a hospital even though he never recalled doing so. It was a memory of Shogun, the real Takumi, who had lived in a hospital since the age of 10. Gero Froggy is a toy mascot that is currently a cute hip fad in Shibuya. One odd thing about this though is that most people seem to gather on Friday in massive droves to purchase them, almost unnaturally so. It turns out that Gero stands for "GE Rate Observer", and the mascots are being used to test how GE Rate affects the groupthink mentality of Shibuya's populace, which is why it mysteriously attracts people to buy it on the same day the GE rate spikes. Ban also puts two and two together to discover that the NOZOMI group is the one backing the company that makes Gero Froggies, which is more evidence that they're behind this conspiracy. It's mentioned a few times that Gigalomaniacs are extremely rare, less than 1% of the population of the planet, yet seven of them are in Shibuya at the same time and all attend the same High School. NoAH reveals that this is because NOZOMI intentionally built the school and gathered them there to keep watch of them for this purpose, though Rimi and Yua being there were not of their own volition. One of the few limitations of Gigalomaniacs is that they can not heal themselves due to their sense of pain preventing them from denying the reality that they are wounded. Takumi is able to get around this limitation because he's undergone so much pain that his nerve endings start becoming numb and he stops feeling it, which combined with embracing the fact that he's a human created by delusions, lets him to delude himself into thinking he isn't hurt and can heal himself. The cashier yelling "Bang!" at Ban in Chapter 8 and the kid on the train yelling "Bang!" repeatedly at him in Chapter 9, and Yua mentioning her having a bad feeling about it. Ban gets shot to death ("Bang!") later that chapter. Nearly every time we see a scene where Takumi isn't present, the people present in the scene usually note that they feel like they're being watched by someone. This is because Shogun is watching them through his delusions, which subconsciously passes onto Takumi and gives him the knowledge of those events once he awakens as a Gigalomaniac and recalls those subconscious instances of spying on others thoughts. Two delusion choices when Takumi goes into the hospital talk about how Takumi never left the hospital, that Yua is crazy and should be locked up in one as well and that Takumi is wearing a light green hospital gown. The real Nishijou Takumi never checked out of the hospital and remained there on life support, using his delusions to try and stop Nozomi. Takumi wearing a light green gown hints that he is also Shogun, because Shogun's text color font when he first makes contact with Takumi is light green. NoAH also reveals that Yua is suffering from D.I.D. and is actually Mia, which explains her bipolar behavior. The first positive delusion choice you can choose in the game shows Takumi walking to an alleyway not of his own volition, and hearing an odd sound coming from around the corner, but he is stopped by a pink haired girl who tells him it's too dangerous to go there and calls him Taku. This is likely something that subconsciously came into his thoughts as a result of sharing a mental link with Shogun and his thoughts, as Shogun knows Rimi wants to stop Taku from seeing the crime scene at the alleyway to prevent being awakened and will go to great lengths to protect him, and also knows that Nozomi will drag him there later that day after committing the murder. Yua seems oddly obssessed with finding the New Gen killer, to the point that her entire demeanor changes when it comes up, and she goes to insane lengths to try to achieve this goal. It makes much more sense once it's revealed her sister was an innocent victim of the murders and she believes the killer is heartless. Sena knows more about Gigalomaniacs and what they can and can't do limitation wise, as well as the drawbacks to their powers than anyone else in the cast does. Takumi himself wonders multiple times where she studied this or found out all of this information. When it's revealed that Sena's father was one of the top researchers for Project Noah, and that she was taken to Ark Heart Medical by NOZOMI workers for 3 months after being awakened as a Gigalomaniac to get her CODE sample taken, it's easy to surmise that she read the minds of the scientists who took her in after awakening and found out all of the information from them.

Science Fantasy: While on the surface it seems like this entry leans on the realm of Fantasy what with people who can literally warp and bend reality to their will, and are wielding "magical" swords, there's actually a lot of science behind them. The DI-swords are just conduits that allow certain people to channel antiparticles from the Dirac Sea into their primary dimension order to real-boot their delusions, including real-booting the swords themselves. People that can do this have different brainwaves from others, and there are some limitations on what they can do, such as being unable to heal themselves due to the pain they feel in their bodies. Overuse of their powers also causes many antiparticles to stock up in their DI-swords, which can erode the bodies/minds of the users and cripple them or even kill them.

Don't Look At Me: Actually a catchphrase of Takumi's. Though there are three notable instances of when he uses this phrase. The first two times are near the end (or beginning), the initial one being directed towards a mysterious gaze while the second one is for Rimi. The third one is addressed at pretty much everyone around him after he was set up as an ESP. He rarely says this aloud, it's usually part of his inner monologue.

Mind Screw: With Takumi leading the narrative, not only does he not have any idea what's going on, the audience doesn't know much more than he does. This happens from a gameplay perspective as well. Choosing a delusion trigger will show a flash of images, followed by the screen going slightly blurry, as a sign of Takumi having a delusion. As the game progresses, these indications won't always show up when a delusion is in progress; the player will know only after the game cuts them off in the usual manner. To make things even more confusing, delusion triggers sometimes trigger real events to happen to Takumi.

Otaku: Takumi in a nutshell. Specifically of the Anime sort, though he really likes his MMORPG. He's a frequent @channeler who gets all the memes, can recognize many seiyuu just by hearing their voices, and keeps up with all of the recent animes airing at the current point in time.

Hope Spot: Takumi believes that Yua doesn't have any ulterior motive for talking to him and that she genuinely came into his life because she liked him and wants to help him. Sadly, this only ends up being partially true. Takumi later believes that Rimi doesn't have an ulterior motive in helping him and he ignores the warning signs that she's suspicious because he wants to be helped since he's being targeted by the New Gen killers. It doesn't last.

Yank the Dog's Chain: Hatano experiences this when his baby daughter, Mana, dies for unknown reasons while he is taking care of her. This also happens in the middle of the experiment on his wife. He grieves, but ultimately fights to keep his wife in the experiment to prevent her from having to grieve for Mana and acknowledge her death. This lasts for 2 years until the plug on the experiment is pulled. His wife commits suicide and his last remaining daughter is dragged off to a psychiatric ward by NOZOMI, losing him his entire family in one fell swoop.

First-Person Perspective: In the visual novel. All of the visual novel is first-person; Takumi sees everything the camera shows, including scenes where he doesn’t appear like the Ban and Suwa scenes or the Genichi scenes, though it takes him some time before he realizes this and accesses the knowledge.

Get A Hold Of Yourself Man: Rimi slaps Takumi to get him to come to his senses in Chapter 3, when he's freaking out after witnessing an empty Shibuya and Shogun interrogating him, as well as not trusting Rimi who is trying to get him out of the street before he gets run over.

Messianic Archetype
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_c98b7916
comment
Messianic Archetype: Takumi is praised as a messiah after he uses his Gigalo powers to out Hazuki as the New Gen culprit (which in the eyes of the publc, appeared to be a "miracle" as he literally broadcasted her memories onto the electronic screens in the Shibuya Scramble Crossing), and people begin worshipping him. Though this is shortlived as he soon calls them out on their hypocrisy for making him a pariah not long prior to this. Takumi does end up being the one to save the world and humanity from Noah II though, and nearly dies to achieve this goal in the process. For bonus points, his creator was a Godlike near omnipotent being who created him to suffer and save the world, and who he is also one in the same as in body and mind, much like Jesus and God in the holy trinity. Takumi was also born of a "virgin" and through unconventional means, much like Jesus as well. Lastly, Takumi suffered for 3 days straight in a delusion (through Norose's impalement torture), and also dies at the end of said delusion, but after that delusion, he essentially becomes an invincible god through his power and saves the world, and then reaches "heaven" (reaching the blue sky with Rimi). This mirrors how Jesus was crucified for 3 days straight and died, then ascending into heaven and reuniting with the holy trinity, becoming God once more.

comment
Counter-Attack: In a fight between two Gigalomaniacs, they can turn a delusion against the original user. When Sena and Rimi clash over Takumi's fate, Sena fakes out Rimi by acting like she's going to slash her with her sword, only to return it to a mere delusion so it passes through her as a feint, then real-boots it again to try and kill Takumi. Rimi counters by implanting a delusion of Sena stabbing her father into her mind, and nearly causing her to fall off the roof as a result. When Suwa tries to catch Takumi in a delusion to keep him from defending himself, Takumi turns it around on him, forcing Suwa to kill himself. When Norose uses a delusion that destroys Takumi's sense of himself as a human being, Takumi eventually embraces it, using the delusion to get around No Self-Buffs.

Nothing Is Scarier: In Chapter 3, Takumi finds himself in a Shibuya where there is no one around but him, and he runs around half of the city trying to find any sign of life, but nothing remains. Despite his aversion to interacting with people and wanting to be alone most of the time, even he caves into this fear of being the only one left in the world. This was the result of Shogun showing Takumi a delusion to frighten him and also talk with him.

Alternate Character Reading
 Chaos;Head (Visual Novel) / int_d8827578
comment
Alternate Character Reading: A minor example is how kanji characters for Takumi's last name, Nishijou, are normally read as Saijou, but in his case it is Nishijou. This is intentional, as his full name, Nishijou Takumi, can translate to "Lightning-fast Neidhardt blossoming the snake." Neidhardt is obvious, blossoming refers to how his DI-sword and personality (as revealed in the NoAH version of the game) is named/represents a Water Lily Stem as he opens up to people (blossoming) and moves forward after resolving himself (the stem). The Snake alludes to the serpent he creates with his delusions to smite and destroy Noah II at the end of the game. Said Snake also represents Takumi repeating the original sin from the story of Adam and Eve, as Adam rejected paradise for the sake of the woman he loved because of the temptations of a Snake, so does Taku in destroying Noah II with the power of a Snake that represents his deepest desires, all for the sake of Rimi.

Everyone Can See It: Misumi tends to ship Takumi and Rimi a lot due to how much they are around each other and genuinely enjoy one another's company. Nanami used to do this as well for Shogun and Rimi before her memories were erased, and considering that Takumi and Shogun are the same person, it makes sense.

It's revealed later to be Hatano Issei, Sena's father, who once worked with Nozomi and was the one who discovered Ir 2 on Takumi's essay as confirmed in NoAH. Takumi seeks him out in the final chapter in order to find out where Noah II is located so he can destroy it.

He then heads to the Shibuya Scramble Crossing to be lynched by the GE Rate riled up crowd.

Continuity Cameo: The name Neidhardt is mentioned in passing in Steins;Gate.

Neidhardt's ESO friend Sister Centipede is referenced in Steins;Gate, where she coordinated an attempt by various @channers to locate the IBN5100. Chaos;Head forms the foundation of the overarching Science Adventure storyline, so as such, Robotics;Notes and Chaos;Child have many references and callbacks to this entry in particular as they're more intristically tied to this plotline than Steins;Gate is, too many to list.

It's revealed to just be an act, and that Rimi has been privy to everything that's been happening to Taku. She's just been trying to prevent it as well as keep his mind off it to prevent him from being awakened.

Call-Forward: In the opening narration of the game, Takumi notes how he wished that everything that had led up to this moment was just another delusion of his, but laments that it's reality. This is because the opening of the game is actually the final scene of the game, where Takumi has been hounded by Nozomi and Shogun and terrified again and again into awakening as a Gigalomaniac, and then was forced to fight for his life several times and be mindraped/tortured horribly before he could destroy Noah II and end his nightmare.

Geek: Takumi, to an unhealthy extreme. He much prefers 2D girls to real women, and would rather not mingle with real people. Yua acts like one to get Takumi to trust her, though it's later revealed that her love for anime and manga is genuine.

Determinator: After being subjected to stalking, paranoia and many other terrifying events including his sister being kidnapped and held hostage, Takumi awakens as a Gigalomaniac and braves through many battles against the New Gen killers, one of which manages to literally break him and make him lose his sense of self, all to save Rimi and the other girls from Nozomi's clutches. And he succeeds.

Combination Attack: In the ''NoAH'' version, it's revealed that Takumi's snake sword that's made up of antiparticles which he uses to destroy Noah II was formed from all of the 7 Gigalos DI-swords fusing with one another for one giant final strike to end this nightmare.

Powered by a Forsaken Child: What makes Noah II properly function are the CODE samples taken from Gigalomaniacs. But in order to create Gigalomaniacs to take said CODE samples from, you have to subject them to severe psychological trauma to the point that they mentally break in order to alter their brain patterns. All of the Gigalomaniac CODE samples used to power Noah II are from teenage girls. By extension, in order for a Gigalo to obtain a DI-sword that will allow them to bend reality requires them to undergo severe psychological trauma.

Artistic License – Geography: While nearly every single location in the story is an actual place you can go to in Shibuya, there is one notable exception. The Kurenai Hall building where Takumi's container house resides on doesn't exist in the real world. This is because Shogun real booted the entire building and Takumi's house into existence just to help fabricate the story of Takumi's fake life living out on his own in Shibuya.

Big Damn Heroes: Takumi of all people ends up doing this for most of the cast in the final chapter. First he saves Ayase, Yua, Momose and Nanami from being crushed after a street cave in. Then he saves Sena and Kozue from a delusion attack by Suwa that would've mindbroken them and subsequently defeats Suwa after. And lastly, he manages to save Rimi from the clutches of Norose and destroys Noah II.

Superpower Disability: A Gigalomaniac can become this if they abuse their powers so extensively that too many antiparticles stock up in their DI-sword and begin to erode away their body and mind, essentially crippling them and potentially killing them. This is what happens to Shogun, who is forced to ride around in a wheelchair due to how heavily his body was damaged by his extensive use of delusions and the real booting of Ir 2.

Locked Out of the Loop: Nanami has no idea that Takumi is being targeted for New Gen and just casually interacts with him thinking nothing is wrong.

Redemption Equals Death: Hatano Issei sacrifices himself to save Sena from death at the hands of Suwa, redeeming himself for getting his wife and baby daughter caught up in a Nozomi experiment that cost them their lives. Shogun kickstarted the entire plot when he inadvertently created an equation that can warp the reality of the world, which Nozomi then got a hold of and used to create Noah II. As a result, he constantly uses his delusions to put a stop to Nozomi's plans despite how it deteriorates his body in order to atone for this, ultimate succumbing to his wounds at the end of the story after the world has been saved.

comment
Twin Switch: The game and drops a lot of hints that the girl we know as Yua was actually her twin, Mia. The incident that gives her her DI-sword has her conclude that it doesn't matter which one she is. Her character route in the NoAH confirms that they indeed switched places right before the incident. Because Mia suddenly didn't feel like attending an otaku meeting she was actually looking forward to (she's quite moody, to be exact), she convinced Yua of switching clothes so she can attend the meeting in Mia's stead.

The Diegetic Interface is far more prominent in this visual novel, with the game going out of its way to replicate the late 2000's PC interface in the design of its TIPS and Save/Load screens. Later SciADV releases toned down this aspect significantly, featuring more standardized UIs.

Earn Your Happy Ending: Takumi really puts himself through the wringer in order to achieve this, but in the True Ending, he manages to save every girl, and Rimi spares him, while Shogun passes away, leaving his memories/knowledge with Takumi. The girls all survive, and Takumi finally breaks through his isolating mentality and forges a true connection, learning to embrace reality and to stop living in his fantasies.

Darkest Hour: The Start of Chapter 10. Shibuya is in ruins with thousands of people dead, half of the girls are incapcitated or being incapacitated (Rimi has been captured, Nanami fatally wounded, Kozue and Sena are being mentally targeted, Yua and Ayase get trapped under rubble with Momose). The only one that has a chance of stopping Noah II at this point is Takumi, who's only just awakened as a Gigalomaniac and doesn't have any leads on where to go or what to do.

Artistic License – Physics: Since the whole plot is built on the idea of people who can rewrite the fabric of reality with their minds alone , this kinda goes without saying. While the Dirac Sea containing antimatter and the like is true, people being able to send antiparticles into other people's minds, let alone the conduit for said ability conveniently being a Sword of all things, is completely fictional.
