AniWorthNight Head 2041
Introduction
In the year 2041, World War III has wiped out two-thirds of the human population, and in the newfound structure, the belief in any god or beyond-human entity is considered a preposterous notion. In order to prevent citizens from bearing possibly incriminating thoughts, the government has assembled a Special Weapon Enforcement division to capture and rehabilitate such believers.
The Kirihara brothers, Naoya and Naoto—who were hidden away from society by their captors for years to conceal their psychic abilities—were promised freedom once the world was ready to face their existence. Now, wandering in the appalling new societal climate where psychics are not welcome, the brothers find themselves on the run from the Enforcement's devoted operatives, Yuuya and Takuya Kuroki.

If Marvel made a Disney princess movie and had it animated in Japan, that would be Night Head 2041.
Night Head 2041 does everything right that Night Head Genesis did wrong.
Night Head 2041 is perfect in that it is only 12 episodes (I don't think I had it in me to sit through another 24 eps of night head brothers). So much is happening all at once in every point of the show that the 12 episodes go by very quickly so I would say you might as well watch it if you are interested. However, I would not say that the story itself is particularly well written, as previously stated, it has all of the cliches and over action scenes of a super hero and a princess movie. The CGI animation was originally off-putting, but I felt that it improved as the episodes went on (or I got used to it).
Over al…

Having watched the original series of 2007 years ago i can see the similitud and how much both shares, now i have to say that i was having it under my radar since the anouncement of his release when i watched the teaser but it took me a little bit of time to actually watch it.
This is gonna be my humble opinion about it and im gonna compare it with his predecesor in some areas wanting to bring to those who until now didnt hear any about it and were planning to watch it (or already did it) the approaching of this new installment in how good or bad was.
This is not an secuel of the original series and neither is an remake of any nature but an reinterpretation with the inclusion of many new elements that in many ways tries to adapting the original story with the inclusion of complete new cha…

I expected another Ex-arm
Instead I got Akira that was just way too much on the nose.
(And worse in every other aspect as well)
At first I thought it would be a political story considering the genre, but then it suprised me when the show started inclining towards more religious route. In the second half it went back and connected it with the political aspect.
Don't get me wrong. In it's core the idea is decent enough to follow and expand upon. The problem lies with its terrible execution and abysmal handling of its own characters. If you can even call them that.
Show started in a rather mysterious way with too much exposition. Exposition that will keep on not only repeating but also multiplying. I mean, why would you even relay an information to your brother that he has already been…

Night Head 2041 (2021)
What a show, inspired me to watch the original show now.
Things of note:
Episode 4 has a real nice siren sound use that really makes you feel the effect of the emergency.
The OST is spectacular especially the piece Sacrifice. Has the real classical emphasis on it. The show also doesn't have too many 'ahhhhhh' scenes.
The story at first I was unsure about but it definitely has become spectacular by the end especially with coming full circle. You get some unexpected situations during the show that really push you back into your chair.
The art for this show is brilliant. Characters and many effects use CGI and backgrounds are a mixture. I honestly think it is great to look at and will really stand the test of time superbly.
The sound is the best part and I…
