Review of Night Head 2041

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 don't mean the OP and ED of which are both good, I mean the SFX sound and the composed music to lift you into every situation are just so powerful and do such a great job.

The characters are 2 sets of brothers both with roles to play. Most other characters also have roles to play but they are the most seen. Shouko Futami is a really complex character since she is at the forefront of the story itself. I honestly think she was superb even with her underlying tones of knowing it really is goodbye in some cases to who can or cannot exist.

The show was superb in the end, the first episode and I mean maybe 10 minutes of it had me hanging a bit but then it really caught me. I think for me this is the best show of the season that I have seen. I obviously didn't watch every show that came out.

Also, Shouko Futami is the best girl and not just because of her character design with that unusual hair style but her entire characters story and her voice are so superbly chosen.

9/10. Such a shame it is over but then again Night Head Genesis is now on my watch list.
