Before anything, if you intend to play this game and 100% complete it, keep in mind that pressing the "E" key on a PC keyboard will save your life by skipping so many lines so quickly!


The first entry in the beloved Science Adventure series, CHAOS;HEAD NOAH is about a male second year high school student named "Takumi Nishijo" (or Taku for short) who has the unique ability to see his surroundings more positively and negatively - this is called a delusion. Throughout this game, you'll be able to decide whether the delusions Taku will see is sweet or sour. In Takumi's world, a series of murders have begun to occur called the NewGen murders. Taku is a shut in, introverted hardcore Otaku and gamer who just loves to fantasize about the world of 2D and video games all day, and because of his lifestyle and hobbies, he often joins chatrooms. In such chatrooms, he encounters users who send him images relating to the NewGen murders. One way or another, this causes Taku to get involved with the NewGen murders. At the same time, all of a sudden, someday, a suspicious girl enters Taku's life. Taku first meets her in front of a grusesome NewGen murder scene and then at school. Oddly, apparently Taku and the girl were always best friends at school yet, Taku has no memory of her being his best friend...Lastly, throughout this story, Taku will often encounter an odd question that he doesn't understand as well as large swords held by some people that only he seems to notice .

Will Taku uncover his relation to the NewGen murders, figure out who and why the suspicious girl that he has no memory of has entered his life and learn what's the deal with the weird question and the swords he's been noticing lately? Play to find out!


Well, first off, I'd like to note that I had played using the fan patch (Committee of Zero's overhaul patch) for a better experience.[sonome.dareno.me] This includes more accurate translation. Anyways...

Honestly, CHAOS;HEAD NOAH is an absolutely beautiful story. All confusion and questions the player may have in their mind begins to be answered at Chapter 9. Up until that point, I didn't really like Taku, probably because he stutters so much and I can't relate or connect to him that well as he's somebody so introvertted, into 2D female figurines and enjoys genres of video games that I don't enjoy at all. However, you have to fully play the game in order to begin to like CHAOS;HEAD NOAH and especially Taku in particular as a character. Seeing the common ending - "Silent Sky", isn't really the most happiest way to end this story. Working to reach the "Blue Sky" ending should be your goal as I consider it to be the true ending of the story as well as one that makes the most sense for Rimi and Taku.

The story has many twists - I did not see all of it coming! For example, I did NOT see nurse Hazuki being Grimm coming! These sort of shocking identity revelations really caught me off guard, so I loved them!

Ultimately though, I loved the Blue Sky ending, it made me smile and tear up. Amazing way to end the story.



I do have a few painpoints to share.

1. The lack of BGM, especially inside of Taku's container. The frequent lack of music at times can bore, fatigue and make the player sleepy. I know that Taku's container has some sort of static or raindropy noise running in the background, but it's just not enough to keep me awake and active while reading inside of the container and other places lacking noise. So, I wish there was more music playing throughout the story.

2. After obtaining the common ending, please, introduce the feature to let us skip entire chapters while doing another playthrough. It would be more faster and convenient than the "E" key (skip mode). This would have been really useful for obtaining other endings.

3. I am not the biggest fan of the sprite and animation quality. It's good but not good enough.
