Night Head 2041 https://anilist.co/anime/125868/NIGHTHEAD2041/ https://i.ur.com/yfd4jU7.png Summer 2021 been kinda a OK season for me from the very beginning. But when I saw the first episode for this Anime I was instantly hooked after that cliffhanger at the end of episode 1. I even rewatched episode 1 just to remember that feel again. Now that it ended just wanted share some thoughts of how this went from a kinda promising anime to being a mediocre one. Synopsis copied from AL The story follows the Kirihara brothers who from a young age were incarcerated in a secure scientific facility due to their supernatural powers having escaped after the barrier that was preventing them malfunctions. The story also follows the Kuroki brothers who are trying to chase the Kirihara brothers. And trailer for this Anime. https://youtu.be/IZN1dtVZNA Now as you mightve somewhat expectations for this lets get into it What I expected from this is a scifi/drama anime with some good mix of drama supernatural abilities. What I got is a bland plot driven anime with some great production which I didnt expected. + points Background Art Backgrounds in anime are generally forgettable. Even though someone must work on drawing those backgrounds it mostly goes unnoticed. But this Anime had one of the best Background Art Ive seen in any Anime. You see those This Anime truly shines in the background art. Im not lying when I say I watched every episode just for the small moments where they elevate a scene with almost breathtaking backgrounds. Every episode have atleast one such moment. Animation For a full 3D Anime this Anime does pretty great job at what its trying to do. Now to make you understand what Im trying to say If youve seen a decent amount of Anime you mustve realized that Most scenes are just still images. Most of the scenes in many Anime feel so stiff and barely have any moment. This Anime adds some effort and add those small details like small eye moments while talking character designs and such. Even in some of the scenes where youll have some action it adds so much detail it felt very satisfying just to watch these scenes. points Its pretty much everything other than + points. YES The Anime barely had anything else to back it up except for those two. Even with so much detail and care put into character design making there personalities feel so bland lifeless and completely takes out that feel the animation is trying to make. Its just a pity for something that looks so good. The plot feels so random the Anime seem to just went with the flow and tried to make something out of it with all the religion spiritualism and all. Characters who have a major incident seems to appear out of nowhere which is unexpected but not in a good way. And characters with little to nothing have to plot have a unnecessary amount of screentime. And to top it off it also had a few plot holes. One would be Spoiler for episode 11 Might be Spoilers Now to sum it up. This is an Anime with some great production that was wasted with a rather mediocre plot. You can still watch enjoy it tho. As I said earlier I watched this literally for the background art work nothing else still enjoyed it. But if youre expecting anything related to plot theres a high chance youll end up disappointed.
