It’s time for the seasonal OP/ED roundup! I want to hear about your favorite OPs and EDs for the season (alternatively, your least favorites!). If you are looking for a collection of them all for this season, you can find almost all of them at the link below:
Just a note that you can absolutely use this thread like you would any other general discussion thread. So, feel free to post questions/comments/recommendations like any other week.
As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).
I started watching JoJo season one, eight episodes in. I dunno, it’s not grabbing me.
Similar to Hellsing, watched the first two episodes, people spoke so highly of it.
Themes
You and I Are Polar Opposites Season 2 ED: “Unmei no Kimi” by Mega Shinnosuke - my favourite theme of the season. I never skip it. Honda’s aura? Unmatched.
World Is Dancing OP: “Shuushou” by Macaroni Empitsu - mesmerizing visual mix, and the song really complements it.
Draw This, Then Die! ED: “Conifer” by Regal Lily - although its OP and ED are quite similar in style, I prefer Regal Lily’s song.
You and I Are Polar Opposites Season 2 OP: “Neko Jarashi” by 7co - not as visually impressive as the first OP but still very fun. I like the outfits and how the credits are incorporated into the scene with different typesetting to match it.
Jaadugar ED: “Hoshi” by Ziyoou-vachi - pretty and bittersweet.
Please Excuse My Younger Brothers ED: “Clover” by Reira Ushio - warm and cute.
Lara’s OP and ED are wonderful visually, but I don’t care for the songs so I rarely watch them.
The Elusive Samurai Season 2 OP and ED are slowly growing on me, but I knew I wouldn’t like them as much as the first season themes.
I was having a grand ol’ time at Open Sauce last week, but today I’ve finally gotten caught up on some stuff:
- Daemons of the Shadow Realm continues to absolutely kill it. The FMA reference in last week’s episode was executed perfectly.
- The Ghost in the Shell’s first episode got my hopes up. Today I watched episodes 2 and 3 and now I’m just happy that I live in a world where this adaptation exists. Truly excellent
- The 100 Girlfriends Who Really Really Really Really REALLY Love You just released two absolutely hilarious episodes in a row. I can’t blame you if you bounced off either at the title or at one of the more controversial girlfriends, but I can say you’re missing out.
- You and I Are Polar Opposites continues to be cute as hell.
- Jaadugar is unfortunately something I still need to get caught up on. It’ll happen though!
- Kaiju Girl Caramelise is sweet, but I don’t think it quite stands up to You and I are Polar Opposites.
- The Exiled Heavy Knight bla bla bla is kind of difficult to look at because of the cinematography, but I’m pleased to report that GoHands has finally made a plot that’s merely mediocre instead of outright terrible. Their previous shows were so cringe I couldn’t last through an episode, but we have officially hit “so bad it’s good” territory (as opposed to whatever territory things like Hand Shakers and The Star Wars Holiday Special fall under)
I just discovered Hell Mode and was really pleasantly surprised. The show is pretty solid and I like that the MC It’s basically farming 24/7 in the background and still getting left behind rather than just one shotting everything
Chainsmoker Cat OP isn’t just hands down the best OP of the season, it’s a pretty strong contender for best OP of all time. I don’t know what’s more insane, this OP, or, uh, the rest of the show.
I enjoyed Yani Neko but not everyone thinks graphic vomitting and diarrhea are funny.
your favorite OPs and EDs for the season
For me it’s Wonder of the Universe (ending theme of BanG Dream! YUME∞MITA), no contest. The visuals and song are too cute.
By the way, the lyrics are in the closed captions.
