I continue on my quest to listen to bad Anime while I work; This week I listened to chaos;head and it was delightfully terrible. It was basically an audio novel, everything was expressed in dialog, I especially love the long pseudo science exposition dumps:

"we are putting a delusion in the blank spot on your mind!" I had to glance at my second screen from time to time to make sure that the otaku guy and his harem of psychic girls were battling... Dudes with back packs.

The final fight was also funny in how anticlimactic it was. I noticed it's based on a visual novel or something and tried listening to chaos;child what seemed to be an adaptation of an alternative route but I could not do it a second time. Then tried Heavenly Delusion and that one seemed good, so I'm putting it on hold to watch while paying attention next.

Currently looking for another bad Anime to listen to

Shinesman, if you can find it, has an amusingly silly dub that you should be able to follow without paying too much attention to the visuals. They took an already rather silly sentai show parody and just let the English voice actors run away with it.
