Summary:
'It is said that 70% of human brain capacity is unused. If human posses incredible power, it is strongly believed to be lying dormant within this region. This unused 70% brain capacity is known as "Night Head".' The famous work 'NIGHT HEAD' is going to break the silence... They were abandoned by their parents because of the psychic power they possess. They are the Kirihara brothers, who lived in a labatory within a barrier-protected forest. They have escaped from the labatory, and a new wave of 'Revolution' is about to arise... A new "Night Head" is about to awaken.
Well, I wasn't sure about this one because of disappointment with other CLAMP's series ( X and Tsubasa Chronicles) but I am really glad I took that 'risk'! :) I just swollowed all episodes at once.
The best thing is animation - protagonists are very attractive, and it's both in appearance and personality. They live and struggle in a dangerous and dark world with no one to help them. I can't criticize almost anything in that deep, interesting story. Though I didn't like the solution with their parents, I was impressed how the creators 'got rid of' Shouko not doing it at all.. wow.
As for bad sides: definietly the music. Ending was so-so, but opening ...no comment. And even though I really liked Naoya, he was really annoying with his "Niisan, tasukete" and being so sensitive with his power etc at the beginning, but he matured fast enough for me to forgive him :)
The strangest thing is that I don't feel it has ended.. As if creators have left some kind of open doors for continuation, but still haven't used that. If there really was a continuation... I'm definietly going to watch this.
