Unboxing [US]: Chaos;Head - Complete Series: Limited Edition USA (BD/DVD)

For this unboxing I take a look at an older Funimation title and it's Limited Edition artbox set; Chaos;Head.

Chaos;Head is the first title in the Science Adventure series that was later followed by Steins;Gate, Robotics;Notes and Chaos;Child. All are based on visual novel adaptations (except for Chaos;Child being a brand new title in the series with an anime adaptation forthcoming). Chaos;Head is a supernatural thriller series and with only 12 episodes, it was not well received. People have claimed that even the hardcore audiences who love the visual novel have denied the existence of this anime adaptation. The visual novel cast did return for the anime version.

This Limited Edition release is DVD sized at the time (like Baka & Test, B Gata H Kei and Ga-Rei-Zero) but has the Blu-ray and DVD between the two cases. My set has been slightly damaged but the discs are perfectly fine.

Plot:

From the mind that brought you Death Note comes a schizophrenic anime experience that will make you doubt everything you think you’re seeing.

Takumi is an anime-obsessed recluse with a fetish for two-dimensional girls. His dirty little cyber secrets land him in real-life trouble after a chat room encounter with the mysterious General leads him to the scene of a gruesome murder. In the blink of an eye, Takumi goes from a caffeine-addicted gamer to a paranoid murder suspect caught up in something called the New Generation madness. Between the police and a gang of girls with giant holographic swords, someone is watching his every move. As the world constructed around him begins to unravel, Takumi will discover that nothing – not even his own life – is what it appears to be. Welcome to Chaos Head. Can you survive reality?
