Plot Summary:

Quote:

On 7th of September 2015 a man suddenly dies while streaming a video from his web camera. Later, on September 19th a street musician dies the same way while performing.

Miyashiro Takuru, a member of Hekihou Academy's newspaper Club is tasked to investigate those incidents. His friend, Shinji Ito, directs Takuru to a clue - both incidents took place at the same day as the first two incidents of "New Generation Madness" from 2009.
Takuru tells this to Kurusu Nono, a vice president of the newspaper club, but she doesn't believe him, saying it's all just a coincidence. Takuru continues to stand his ground" "There's a way to prove it's not a coincidence. The third "New-Gene" incident happened on September 29th. Which is... today". That instant Takuru's cell phone rings. It's Onoe Serika.
Trying to calm down his violently beating heart, Takuru gathers the other members and goes to a place Serika told them to...

It looks like Chaos;Child will be getting an anime adaptation based on the game. The opening promo:

Another promotional trailer...

So quick question: does one need to know the story of Chaos;Head to read/watch Chaos;Child or is this more of a standalone story on the same universe? Can any VN reader chime in on that?

Considering most of the Science Adventure Game adaptions have been relatively standalone, aside from a few references and characters popping up, I assume the same will likely be true of this. I watched the Chaos;Head anime, but from what I've seen at most this series just shares some design and thematic elements with Chaos;Head

LuxorMG · 2015-03-28, 19:21

Wow, so earlier today we got news of a Steins;Gate game/anime sequel, and now we have another game/anime in the series. Dang... I hope it's not an early April Fools joke.

MisaoFan · 2015-10-19, 06:28

It's been actually confirmed elsewhere but it was a long time ago, is there any more news about this though?

Speaking of other things, I wonder how will people react if they find out both this and S;G Zero will air around the same season and then only few select people choose to watch both?

I felt that besides Steins;Gate, I don't think the 5pb.'s Sci-Fi ADV franchise was particularly well-liked (if at all) from others' reactions (especially the anime adaptations), on top of that to make it worse, Robotics;Notes was very underestimated even in its source material.

tsunade666 · 2015-10-19, 07:54

Well, robotic;notes isn't really special. Its kinda normal from their previews work. its like the game had been hyped too much and when they played it. They felt disappointed.
It also didn't help that the previews animation of their game, before steins;gate isn't really well received. And the one I'm talking about is chaos;head.

This is a sequel of that game right? i haven't check the information given for chaos;child so I don't know the story yet but when i checked vndb. it's listed chaos;head as its prequel.

ACertainStark · 2015-10-19, 10:54

That's a shame if true because I really enjoyed my play of Chaos;Head. It's what got me into it.

And yeah, pretty sure this is a sequel to C;H.

Both of you got correct, someone else said it's an indirect one though.

Stark700 · 2015-12-28, 22:18

Anime is still in progress

MisaoFan · 2016-01-18, 13:24

Still no news in sight other than the anime being in development? Given the franchise's track record, I'm going to guess it'll air this autumn right?

Stark700 · 2016-05-20, 10:16

The anime site has a countdown now.

Stark700 · 2016-06-30, 10:17

SethOfI · 2016-06-30, 11:46

Seems like an interesting one. Definitely in line with what I like as far as subject matter that has a lot of potential for a good story. I hope it isn't too similar to Chaos;Head though.

I haven't played the games so I am unsure how much of Chaos;Head followed the style we can expect from the game author and whatnot. I just know that while I enjoyed Chaos;Head for the dark borderline-horror mysterious aspect of it, I didn't enjoy it all the way through because the genre just seemed to diverge into something else than that at some point.

This sounds like it promises the same style based on the synopsis so I find myself hoping that it won't diverge in the same way.

Site updated today. January 2017 and will be directed by Masato Jinbo.

Great to see this guy do something else apart from the Fate series. He also did Shomin Sample but that doesnt seem like something to judge his direction skills by. So far he has directed good anime. Lets see if he can do the same with this. Love it every time we get an in house director at silver link.
