/a/ - Animu & Mango

200 years from now when waifuism historians are looking up the great waifus of past eras this will be at the top.

I watched Gundam Wing a lot because in my mind an anime about giant robots with an opening THIS good just had to be good, right?

In retrospect, I was obviously tricked.

best op

A classic.

JoJo's just has so much more class.

it's pretty catchy

>got too many that are too big, sadly

Just use ffmpeg to lower the bitrate (and possibly the resolution).

>>782157

Gundam intros are the definition of hype

>>782203

If a 4:3 work is in 16:9 it's either stretched or there are black bars on the sides, for stretched video resampling it back to a 4:3 resolution will fix stretching and for black bars ffmpeg has a couple of filters (crop, cropdetect) meant for that.

Sometimes some video games and very rarely video instead of resampling or using black bars on the 4:3 image will chop off the top and bottom to make it 16:9, it was common in the playstation 2. You can't do anything in that case.e

I don't know why this opening makes me so happy

I really like this OP.

>>782232

Close runner up for me.

>>782141

Fuck the first time I saw that OP was when I had woken up at 3 AM sick on paint fumes and it still haunts me.

The OP from the Dirty Pair movie is my personal favorite and I would say in the top 5 best OP's of all time. I never get tired of watching it.

>>782141

Groovy OP

The chorus is magical

NANANA, NANANANA, NANA NA, CENTURY COLOR

>>782141

Impeccable taste

Oldies but goodies.

It makes me sad how forgotten this show has become, I consider it an underrated gem, I was hooked from the OP.

This op is very comfy, just like the anime!

>>782887

This OP is really cool.

>>782337

How good is the anime? It looks really neat.

>>782887

It was so comfy, it made me not want to get out of bed!

>>782141

I honestly couldn't name a single favourite but I think there's quite a few amazing Mecha openings. For example every singe Getter Robo opening or Gao Gai Gar. I always found the Gurren Lagann openings to be kinda lacking though.

This

or this

>>782232

Classic.

>>782198

Soul Taker, Really. OK you just became my fav person. Not gonna lie. I thought no one knew about this show.

>>782141

>>782382

These are easy pics.

>>782204

The entire OST is solid. Forgot her name. The girl with the silver hair? The Gundam Juliet lul. Her character song is pretty.

>>782161

My favorite part is near the end when they play music box version. If you ever listen to all the way through, I mean.

This isn't an opening but fuck it's so catchy.

Oh and this.

>>782892

its kinda ok, episodes last like 15 minutes. also the girls never wear those weird outfits from the opening. And you might get more questions than answers in the end

>>782141

Liked the song to this opening. Too bad the anime was nonsensical bullshit

>>782909

>>782911

I looked into your eyes and knew you were my nigga

Naruto is shit but you have to have a favorite opening from it

One of the only times an OP went from good to evocative. I got major feels everytime.

>>783006

Was I the only one who thought Kamina's death was a prank? A joke? I expected him to come back a few episodes later.

He never did.

One of my favorite OPs

>>783006 I agree completely. Love this song, quite nostalgic and evocative as you said. Nice timestamp triple double by the way.

>>783014 A bit late in your post for a spoiler, wouldn't you say? I thought the same exact thing you did though. I'll never forgot asking the guy who introduced me to TTGL at the end of the last episode, drunk and teary eyed: "He's really not coming back, is he buddy?"

>>783017

Pretty similar sound to what I was just about to post.

To me it sounds like the anthem to crazy

>>783022

The opening is what got me hooked too. I...burned it.....on to a cd years ago....and still listen to it. This show is a classic for me and so very underrated.

>>783021

The second opening is great too. It's a sad dreamy song.

>>782987

Good pick anon. Probably one of the best anime OST.

Surprised no one posted this one yet.

>>782141

I miss big-titty cat girls. I hadn't realized they were going extinct. I miss where we could just have a catgirl in a show. Especially when it's more than just ears and tail. Bordering on /monster/ territory, even.

Ringo>Bure>Rumba

>>782974

>Soultaker

I watched it after Komugi, because I needed more Komugi. And because it had that 11/10 OP. I liked it a lot, but I've never seen anyone talk about it in the years since. I guess not eveyone likes watching visual nonsense.

>>782998

I watched that show entirely because of the OP. I want my time back.

>>782909

I think that Baccano has one of the perfect OPs. Perfectly gets you in the mood for the show.

Whenever I watch anime, I normally prefer a show's endings to its openings, but here's an opening I really liked although I thought it ended poorly compared to its start.

>>783022

>>783032

I have a good number of tracks from the Bleach OSTs that I never listen to anymore.

>>783107

>>783106

Was there an explanation given for the repurposing, considering Soultaker came first and was ? I mean, was it just another idea the team had and still wanted to explore, or did Soultaker make so little money they made something more appealing (natively at least, I'd wager) by appropriating their existing characters and changing their roles/world?

>>783109

Some of the Arrancar/Las Noches era Spanish-vibe tracks were really good. Some also being surprisingly long compared to most singular anime tracks.

>>783112

>and was ?

Meant "and was rather dark with its world/story?" Really should finish my thoughts before watching something or switching tabs.

>>783112

I don't know, probably the first thing and they did it for fun. It's only a short OVA.

Don't judge me.

>>783032

Cutie Honey Flash looks like the most fun show to have watched. It's opening just oozes "Take a seat and have a good time" in all the best ways.

Obligatory.

>>783111

It's certainly a great opening but the German version is the one that is stuck in my brain forever.

>>783186

>Cutie Honey Flash looks like the most fun show to have watched.

It really is a fun time. Every episode has a different feel to it.

QUARITY

I feel like I have normalfag tastes. Everyone is posting nostalgia or hidden gems, but I can't move on from the fact that one punch man was basically my favorite OP and some of the hypest shit ever

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atxYe-nOa9w

I really also like Overlord's 1st season OP

>>783403

> I can't move on from the fact that one punch man was basically my favorite OP

Just post what you like, no snobs here. Some anons have just seen a lot of shit. One punch man OP is a good choice.

>>783406

>no snobs here

Speak for yourself, plebeian.

GT was a horrible dumpster fire, but this is easily the best OP in the entire franchise.

>tfw you fuck up the embed because you missed a single character in the URL

>>783454

I wouldn't mind a return to the time when it was a group looking for dragonballs though. That was fun.

Sometimes simplicity in an opening is best. Plus that bass line is erotic.

I personally like misleading ops in general.

>>783403

Eh, JAM Project isn't a bad favorite as far as normalfag tastes go.

>>783363

It's been a while since I've watched Precure, but that's probably the most badass op out of all of them.

>>782221

This has to be the same singer.

This song is pretty catchy too.

plz no bully

>>784319

Wrong

Shit show, great opening.

gotta love that strut

This one. I'll be uploading the whole season once it's all done and done.

Shizugu best girl

>>783286

Did you record this in VLC?w

>>782186

>Melty Blood gets no love

>Haven't seen FATE or played any of the NVL games because I don't know where to begin.

Why is it that Type Moon neglects Melty Blood so much?

You don't see 007th doing this shit, they balance their only two properties much better and don't even milk them, meanwhile Type Moon milks them but only one.

>>784442

Read Tsukihime. You have some experience with the characters so it's a fair starting point.

It's also the better part of the Nasuverse by a country mile

OBLIGATORY

>>784440

Obviously I recorded this through the PTE player, hence why this is the best version.

Also this version of Rumba is not bad at all.

I'd post "Tough Boy" but I like that one AMV thing more than the actual OP.

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t55VHg6R_sA)

The song is GOD TIER though.

I like this intro because it has animation in it.

I like animation.

I love how catchy this op is.

>>784625

Shame that they ruined the ending.

This song gets me so fucking pumped up.

>>786062

I saw the video thumbnail and knew instantly that you were my nigger

>>786144

The anime ends before the manga goes wrong, but it still depends on whether you like the basic premise: A supreme galge autist is hired by hell to make posessed girls fall in love with him to exorcise them. He and his bumbling devil partner keikaku their way into the hearts of many different girls.

>>786144

>>786154

Also, before I forget, here is the extended song, an always relevant piece about how 3D is PD while in 2D all is pure.

>>786055

Man say what you will but Kill la Kill's OPs got you excited for the episode.

>>786411

Could you do one for the third opening as well? Seems like youtube is prone to banning/blocking that version, for whatever reason.

>>782911

>There is an anime with a Motley Crue song as its OP

Woah, what?

Also, don't be fooled by the catchy OP. Its not a good show.

No love of lain?

I always thought the 9th (and last) Naruto opening was pretty great. The use of off-colors, the rotoscoped animation, Naruto sparring with Rock Lee, the way the song playing creates this sort of... image of a motherly woman watching her son grow into an adult.

Good stuff.

>>784363

>One Piece Opening 6

You're one off

>>783006

I prefered the 3rd OP.

This show had some really good OPs and EDs

Still makes me feel.

Mecha openings have the most beautiful engrish

>>786064

I prefer the second opening. It just feels more dynamic

>>787678

Excellent taste. SSX's OP isn't as good but it's the same singer so it has the same feel to it.

>>787482

>That beginning drum beat

It always make me thing of Move Along by All American Rejects

>>784380

Am I crazy or is the video you posted slightly pitched higher and sped up?

Rise to myyyyyyyy Dream

>>793436

I feel like a bigger lolicon when watching that show than when fapping to loli.

>>793589

Agreed. A show full of cute girls with plump thighs, short skirts, lewd jokes, and no shame about it. Mitsudomoe, I feel, is obligatory if you like loli.

>>787451

>>782999

>Broken Youth - NICO Touches The Wall (ED)

>Newsong - Tacica

>Kaze - Yamazaru

>Shooting Star - Home Made Kazoku (ED)

>Haruka Kanata - Asian Kung-Fu Generation

>Niji No Sora -FLOW (ED)

Naruto sucked complete ass but at least they chose good music. Embed is the best hands down even though it's ED.

>>793589

>>794621

Actually I have a better way of articulating this. Its basically the polar opposite of Kodomo no Jikan but with arguably the same premise: Sexually pent-up, near virginal, teacher teaches a class that features three characters that interact with him in hilarious and interesting ways.

The difference falls in where KnJ is clearly lewd and direct teasing Mitsudomoe feels lighthearted and fun. It's not about the lewd loli, it's about the antics of those lolis and whatever lewdness is just there to appreciate at your own leisure. I guess it'd be like comparing a great view you came to see, vs a great view you happened to catch while also having fun doing something else.

Or something I don't fucking know it's 2:30 am and my roommated finally stopped playing MHW so I can diesleep.

This thread really made me realize how much I prefer the 85-99 styles so much more than what we got today.

>>782141

Didn't hear this version until now, and it isn't bad at all.

Wish I could find a high quality rip of the full thing.

>>783885

I'm sorry, but in my heart the 2nd will always be the best. Nice choice, though

This OP is godly

The anime itself wasn't that good, though

Something about the part where sensei and kafuka both sway their hips left and right i feel meshes well with the song. Also its catchy as fuck

>>802926

Animes should use more English songs in their openings.

>>782157

This one was amazing.
