Chaos;Head: Difference between revisions

* [[All Just a Dream]] -- Some of the positive delusions try to provide a [[Happy Ending]] through this, Takumi even [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] the cliche.

* {{spoiler|[[Angsty Surviving Twin]]}} -- {{spoiler|Yua. Her twin sister [[Theme Twin Naming|Mia]] died in the "Group Dive," the ''first'' First Gen incident. Yua then launches her own investigation into [[Theme Twin Naming|Mia]]'s death. She suspects Takumi is involved in the First Gen murders and pretends to befriend him under the ruse of being a [[Gamer Chick|girl otaku]]. When Takumi finds out her true intentions, Yua ... [[Not Herself|doesn't]] [[Scary Shiny Glasses|take]] [[Department of Redundancy Department|it well]]}}.

* [[Annoying Younger Sibling]]: Nanami

* [[Arc Words]] -- "Whose eyes are those eyes?" (''"Sono me, dare no me?"'')

* [[BFS]] -- The Di-Swords.

* [[Bittersweet Ending]]

** The list goes on, believe me - Taboo! (Yahoo!), Slavecard (Mastercard), Grouchosoft Mindorz X Perfect (Microsoft Windows XP Premium... seriously), THREE different McDonald's spoofs (McDeinald's, McDynald's and WacTiKald's)... there are easily a half dozen of these in each chapter of the game, and the anime adds in even more.

** MewTube ([[YouTube]]) and @-Channel (2-Channel).

* [[Fake Band]] -- Phantasm. Their lead singer is FES, also known as Ayase Kishimoto.

* [[Fictional Video Game]] -- ''Empire Sweeper Online''

* [[Flash Forward]] -- The show starts with one

* [[Formulaic Magic]] -- fun¹⁰ × int⁴⁰ = Ir2, {{spoiler|the equation Takumi discovered in elementary school and the basis of the Noah Project}}. What the equation actually signifies is never explained in depth.

* [[Harmful to Minors]] -- Sena and her mother, sister and father. Wow.

* [[Healing Factor]]

** [[Kenta Miyake]] as Norose is basically reprising his role as Rosenberg in [[El Cazador]], except with scary teeth and {{spoiler|a [[BFS]]}}.

** [[Akira Ishida]] as Fumio Takashi, a psychiatrist whom Takumi saw in the past for his {{spoiler|perceived}} mental illness. {{spoiler|Takashi is killed in the "Brainless" New Gen murder.}}

** [[Hiroyuki Yoshino]] as Takumi Nishijou. One Niconico Douga user went as far as splicing in Takumi's voice into a scene from Gundam00 where Hallelujah is first introduced (Allelujah gets Takumi's voice).

* [[Hikikomori]]

* [[Hospital Hottie]] -- Shino. Also a [[Meganekko]], to an extent.

* [[Through the Eyes of Madness]]

* [[Interrupted Suicide]] -- {{spoiler|Ayase. Takumi's first conscious use of his delusionary abilities in the game is to create a flowerbed which breaks her fall after she attempts suicide by jumping off the roof of the school.}} And later on, {{spoiler|Takumi himself}}.

* [[Lighter and Softer]] -- ''Chaos;Head Love Chu Chu'', a true [[Unwanted Harem]] romantic comedy version that's actually a sort of sequel to the main series of events.

* [[Little Sister Heroine]]: Several 'Delusion' events play up this angle, such as with the indirect kiss scene.

* [[Surprisingly Good English]]: The ending theme is about 75% this. The performer, Seira Kagamai, born to a French-Canadian father and a Japanese mother, is (obviously) fluent in both English and Japanese.

* {{spoiler|[[Taking the Bullet]] -- Sena's father, Hatano.}}

* [[Techno Babble]]

* {{spoiler|[[Theme Twin Naming]]}} -- {{spoiler|Yua and Mia}}.

* [[Third Person Person]] -- Kozu-pii

** And in one of the delusions, Takumi is called on his phone by an (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."

* {{spoiler|[[Twin Switch]] -- The game and anime alike drop 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.}}

* [[Ultimate Gamer 386]]: The protagonist himself, too obvious.

* [[Ultra Super Death Gore Fest Chainsawer 3000]] -- [[Show Within a Show]] titled ''Blood Tune'', and MMORPG titled ''Empire Sweeper''.

* [[Updated Rerelease]] -- ''Chaos;Head Noah'', for the XBox 360. Changes to the game include adding routes for each of the girls and changing it to widescreen. {{spoiler|They also changed the route system; you now have to finish each route to unlock the True Ending, which can then be directly selected from the Main Menu.}}

* [[Virgin Power]]

* [[The Worf Barrage]]

* [[Wrong Genre Savvy]] -- Sometimes Takumi thinks of himself as a character in an RPG.
