The animation is gorgeous but so far its just been a let down. I like the premise and i thought finally the story was going to get moving with ep 5 but that didint happen. It seem like the writers didnt know which way the wanted to tell the story or how to rely the brothers feeling to the auidence its a shame. I think i will hang in there for another 4 episodes to see what happens before i cast complete judgement

Well, the story's progressing nicely now, after watching episode 10. The show's starting to get more and more of a darker feeling (not that it already doesn't have that). The usage of the premonitions was a nice touch. Not shocking, but still somehow everything seems to make sense, and perhaps the question as to why the doctor had somehow managed to get a splitting headache should be explained in the next episode.

I must say, both Naoto and Naoya have met quite a few attractive women in this series! There's Reiko (though a bit psycho, mind you), Shouko (space-time traveller), unnamed girl who gives Naoto money (end of ep5 and beginning of ep6), and now this viral researcher, Kanako.

Lucky dogs!

Psychodragon · 2006-10-09, 13:29

Hahaha, Kamiya never had powers in the first place. MWAAHAHAHA Loser.

Cloudy · 2006-11-04, 08:45

How come nobody talks about this series nowadays?

BTW,the part where Sonezaki was rapping in ep 13 is funny.

ccardoso · 2006-11-27, 04:07

I saw episode 18: why did Naoto become some kind of deus ex machina all of a sudden? I hate these plot devices...

Had Sonezaki not stopped his explanation in episode 13 halfway, perhaps we would be able to know more. Apparently he said that he 'saw some sort of devil' in Naoto, adding to the fact that practically everyone who knows of the two brothers acknowledge them as being vital to the Upheaval, which would mean that they were in some way 'unique' or exceedingly powerful.

The releasing of his powers was somewhat disappointing, yes...In fact, some things felt as though they were unexplained. It's still interesting, though, and now that Shouko's more or less out of the picture (until otherwise stated), looks like we're left with the confrontations between Ark and the Kirhihara bros.

is there a chance for shounen ai in this show? ^^" lol

juventas · 2007-01-13, 15:12

Does no one like this show? I think it's very X-files-ish, which is good. I'm at episode 23 and I just don't get the jump from ep 22. What was the revelation that the president of Ark had?

I liked it fairly well. Though, IMO, the last 2 episodes were more like a side story than an ending for series. And there were several questions I had that I didn't think were answered properly.

Hello. This is my first post here.

I have a little question: Is there any place, a forum, a blog, or whatever where somebody has posted a concluding (longer) review of the complete series? Everywhere I look the discussion seems to just have died a peaceful death. I find that curious because even if the series becomes a total letdown in the later epsiodes I would at least expect somebody to complain about wasted potential or something like that. Things being as they are it seems that I wouldn't miss much if I didn't watch NHG but I would feel better if I knew why exactly wouldn't miss much.

A positive review that might change my mind is of course also very much welcome.

Epoq · 2007-02-24, 00:42

This is one of those anime that seems to rob me of time. I can usually tell whether I like an anime or not after about 3 to 4 episode in, but it took about 11 episodes for me to realize I didn't like Night Head Genesis.

Correct that actually, I hate it.

Hearing "nii-sama" 10+ times each episode made me want to pull my hair out.

Unofficial announcement that Media Blasters plan to license Night Head Genesis.

ANN, Media Blasters Indicates License of Night Head Genesis

Official, unofficial? Clearly it is planned but not yet final?

darkchibi07 · 2008-02-14, 16:03

John Sirabella tends to do that quite a bit on the AnimeOnDVD forums, so 95% of the time, it's the real deal.

strategos · 2008-02-25, 00:23

Will there be a second season to this anime?

I hope so,cause the ending is really lame.you know,those two are really like dean and sam from supernaturals.

anyway,i would have like this show a bit better if not because of naoya's constant "Nii-san!!!!!!!!!!"

strategos · 2008-02-26, 19:22

Well, I finished the series. It was awesome, but there was no closure to the anime. Is like lefting the viewers for a possible second season. Is like they will for ever go a look to stop disaters to occur.

Could the girl that gave them money in the first episode, be the girl that they saved from the abusive father?

mangalowres · 2008-03-30, 12:15

The first half was a little bit weird but this series got better and better.
I liked the last two eps

Spoiler for las two eps:

Nice show and a good end.
