I congratulate you on lasting the entire series. I quit after 4 episodes, I couldn't stand Naoya.

I really enjoyed the series myself, and am glad you have brought it more to light so more fans might be able to share in it. At the same time, it does have its flaws, which certainly are worth mentioning. I can completely understand why the pacing will warn off a lot of fans, impatient fans.

I found it amusing that the trailers included in the different discs seemed to mostly be either a) shonen ai or b)shoujo. Media Blasters seemed to have a particular (female) audience in mind with this title, and while I can't necessarily disagree with that, I think the show will find favor with plenty of males as well. Patience is definitely necessary though.

I suspect that Night Head Genesis has attracted a similar group of fanfic writers in Japan that'd be attached to shows like Supernatural in the US...

Haha, I quit after episode 4 as well. I thought about giving the series another try in the past, but immediately dismissed the idea once I remembered how the actual show was.
I think they had a good idea with the plot, just didn't carry it out well....that happens a lot though, doesn't it?
