Oh yes, as soon as you meet more characters, it starts getting better.

I’ll trust your word then :')

Then give it a try! :D

You were very brave, it’s not easy to start directly from Chaos;Head! Taku is a bit like that, and in the end I could even say I started liking him, but it took so long to get to that point XD

Yup, he pretty much is! But that also makes him immensely unusual, and sometimes unusual ends up being better.

I’m looking forward to it too! I recommend you buy Japanese copies of both Head and Child if you want to play them with the patch, just in case they randomly become super expensive :')

I tried reading the first book years ago, but I couldn’t get into it. Maybe I should give it another shot?

Well then, why not :D

Sorry for the late reply! I really loved the characters too, especially Akiho (yeah, the article gives that away pretty quickly lol)! And yes, you definitely need a guide, I really have no idea how that system works… I don’t usually mind checking a guide, but I guess that might be a problem for some people.

About Dash, when I tried it, I felt it clashed with how characters were portrayed in the prequel, but apparently, that might be due to an imprecise translation; you should definitely try it with the Committee of Zero patch, as that fixes the translation and consistency issues with the rest of the series. Personally, I’ve played most of the games without the patches, as they’re only on Steam, but I can see why people enjoy them! Maybe that will make you want to try Dash?
