Talking about eds/ops has reminded me I actually have absolutely no idea what the original japanese pokemon theme song is, and for all the jokes about english openings to anime being awful, I will not be able to accept it regardless of how good it might be.

I don't know there's a lot of manga that aren't romantic comedies let alone that one.

In a shocking twist, some instances of interest groups on the Internet are bad, while others are good, even for the same interest. Nothing like this has ever happened before.

This was a lot tougher to think of than I thought it was going to be, but Haibane Renmei :hr:

They're not bad really, so much as not that memorable/interesting.

What the hell, the Haibane Renmei opening is awesome, although admittedly the music is doing a lot of the heavy lifting.

This season I really, really like the Fruits Basket Final opening. I don't know if the characters are superimposed on photographs for the outdoor shots but all the scenery looks gorgeous and I like the way they do the quick panning. I'm trying to find a clip of it but Youtube compression seems to get rid of the film grain effect it's using which makes it pop.

You can already use mangadex today with stuff like Tachiyomi. It's just the site that's offline. The service is back.

Got any deathsticks?

Legit S-Tier intro. The dedication alone sets up a tone that few other shows can match.

EDIT. on this kick, why is this the first time I'm hearing about Bandai doing redubbed version of episode 4 with David Hayter as Isamu? Apparently there was a rights issue for the dub that absolutely hosed them and they had to remake the soundscape from scratch. That explains why I never remembered hearing the Dogfight OST in the show, but for the longest time I thought it was a movie version only thing.

Maybe with the Harmony Gold rights bullshit ending they could make a version of Episode 4 that keeps the original Japanese audio mix but also retains the Manga Entertainment dub track. Is the ME version even available anymore?

Also, the English version is better, in this case.

I’m halfway through the first season of Fruits Basket and it’s been magic the whole dang time.

Also very few scenes of people reading cell phones.

Is Fruits Basket good? And if so, should I bother with the original anime or just go straight for the remake?

For that matter, how about Sword Art Online? I’ve heard kind of mixed reviews on it so far

Fruits Basket is legit great. The original was good for its time, but I vastly prefer the remake. The original art style doesn’t really hold up and the remake of course is going through all the material. So just watch that.
