Baccano's opening music is awesome. Jazz in anime just *works*

>>141787770
What style of jazz is this? I usually try to find mixes on YouTube which have the same sound but it's always either slow jazz or smooth jazz.
>>141787895
The stuff Baccano uses is more Swing than Jazz.

Mirai Nikki is a mediocre at best anime, but damn this OP is great.
>>141787584
I was going to ask if he didn't skip it so he could put off watching the episode for anow extra minute.
I mostly skip the OP on the anime until I'm like at episode 6 or so. Way too much spoilers in OPs to be enjoyalbe for me
>>141789213
Also don't forget OP 3 from the OVA from Mirai Nikki

I'm not one to listen to OPs or EDs after a single listen, but I can't ever skip Luluco's EDS. It's so good.
>Skipping openings
>>141789131
Stop pretending Kiznaiver was good already. Just give it up. It's annoying to be reminded of what a colossal disappointment Trigger have been with that series given that they hyped it up as being the next Kill la Kill.
Maybe they'll learn not to recklessly trust hack writers with original works in the future.

>It's not finished. Stop judging a book by its cover
I gave it 3 episodes before dropping it.
The first merely established the premise.
The second introduced most of the characters and started to develop some sort of romantic tension between MC and Chidori.
The third then completely dismissed all of that, forced all of the characters into an uneasy and boring status quo, and revolved around chasing some emo fujoshi-bait faggot.
I've checked on Kiznaiver threads since then, and it's pretty much unanimous that the plot STILL hasn't gone anywhere. Even if the second half of the season finally kicks into gear, that's still inexcusable for a 1-cour series that had literally nothing going for it save for its (flimsy excuse for a) plot.

Those chord sequences resolve too quickly and freely. There's something almost unnerving about seeing such calm music matched with such flashy and energetic animation.

ED is top-tier, as well.
>>141789685
If a series can't drag you in even after half of its runtime is over, it's not a good series.
It's not just that though. Kiznaiver isn't even showing potential. It's not even showing some glimmer of promise that it'll improve.
For contrast, take Steins;Gate - incredibly slow first 7 or so episodes, but it was clear that they were using that time to set up a world that would be fucked around with time-travel shenanigans - and even then that was a 2-cour series.
Kiznaiver just has a bunch of pointlessly altruistic and shallow characters helping out a blank slate coward MC for no discernible reason. How do you honestly think that could even improve?
GATE's first OP did a great job of actually getting me hyped for each episode.
I really wish someone had uploaded a version with both good footage, and audio that wasn't fucked.

Yes but the voice of the singer oh god. I still won't judge you for liking that OP but I will judge the OP. Plus it's understandable why you like the OP.
>>141789995
This is probably my favorite ED of all time. The song is great but the animation gives me a big goofy smile every time I see it to this day. I used to rewind to watch it again back when the show was airing.
>>141790197
>Voice of the singer
I saw this when it aired on TV years ago. Google says I would have been 13. By then, I had seen basically any anime that Fox Kids/Foxbox/4kids had aired up to that point, so I was used to the voice work.

>Shaman King
My nigga.
If I don't like an opening I'll usually just read threads here for a 90 second period then jump back.
Was always hype as fuck for the Robotics;Notes OP though.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9r0rviRBBT0
>>141790348
No it's fine but I'm just glad you and I both like the Shamen King english opening I don't blame you for that.
I always thought this one was pretty neat.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n86hgIXc1BM
>>141790348
Man Shaman King was so fucking bad. Then people tried to pretend the manga was better or some shit.
>>141789844
I feel like you're actually missing the point of the show.
Everything they do past episode 2 is because they have to keep each other, and by extension themselves, safe and pain-free. The characters are being held hostage, and told to introduce themselves and become friends with people they'd otherwise never associate with. Like the Breakfast Club, but also a death-game.
>>141790434
But then again I liked the First OP for it in Japanese but I don't even like the anime anymore due to being a critic now.
>>141790434Due to not having internet access until I was 15, Shaman King was when I discovered that anime was actually Japanese in origin, since I bought the first two DVDs in a store and wondered why the OP was different. At that point, I bought those fucking $20 Shonen Jump magazines
>>141790455
I read the first volume of the manga.I was too distracted by my discovery of YuYu Hakusho to care. I had seen Shaman King, and had one of the video games. My younger self was set.
>>141790533
Not to mention that the main character, who knows he has trouble connecting with people, is being forced to learn how his indifference affects others, and he's slowly developing a heart of his own, which he apparently lost.
>>141788626
everything by goose house is solid platinum
>>141790533
See, that's shit because that is for a very selfish reason. The reason it was so great in Breakfast Club is not because they were forced to be 'friends' outhe of self-preservation, it was because they found out more about eachother in a natural and organic way. What I really wanted from this show was for it to be feeling and emotion based from the start, but they can't even get it right now because it has to be a high level of emotion and the effects wear off immediatly for everyone in the group.

>>141790533
>The characters are being held hostage, and told to introduce themselves and become friends with people they'd otherwise never associate with. Like the Breakfast Club, but also a death-game.
If that's what they were going for then they should have actually allowed the relationships between the characters to develop consequentially, instead of forcing them into an uneasy status-quo. There's potential for character-based drama in the premise itself, but that potential is utterly squandered if the relationships between the characters in question remain stagnant.
The most offensive thing about that series is really how completely dull, cowardly, and pathetic the MC is.
>>141790038

Being an 11 year old at some point and not rewatching your nostalgiashit when you're older is the meme.

>Like how Yuta-kun-dess went from hitting on Maki to white-knighting for her, even after she nearly raped him?
Hitting on and white knighting both sound like things someone does to someone they like - maybe you meant those phrases in a different way?
Like how Chidori gets the MC to open up a little and show a glimmer of emotion at the end of episode 2, then all of that is subsequently reverted back to nothing at the start of episode 3.
There's one line the MC says where you could literally replace it with something like 'I don't want to do something unnecessary like change the status quo' and the scene would flow perfectly.

Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah AhOnly halfway into the series did I realize the OP was filled with tiddies.
>>141791964
I meant 'Who's forcing them to keep a status quo?' The writers? Sonozaki?
And it's clear that at the beginning of the show Yuta hits on Maki out of habit, and/or just to annoy her. Post-rape, he actually seemed concerned for her, and was disappointed that she didn't want him to help her, last episode.
One of those rare cases when OP2 >>>>> OP1
>>141792787
>I meant 'Who's forcing them to keep a status quo?' The writers?
The writer(s). I don't know if the intention was to make it into a 2-cour series, or if they just wanted to spend half a season establishing the characters before doing anything with them, but it's still reeking of a writer who's baiting the viewer into thinking the characters will change only to not change them, which is a cheap and underhanded way to build tension and desire to watch the next episode, that leaves me feeling disappointed and uninvested in it when I'm finally watching it.
